[There is no way for him to say no, that is incorrect, the Captain is dead without betraying how emotionally compromised he is. Scotty called him over Bones, knowing it was against protocol, and Spock honestly doesn't know why: nobody relies on Vulcans for emotional support. It was like watching his mother die all over again, both of them looking at him, the last living thing they would ever see in their lives and he can offer nothing but a complete lack of control over his own heart.]
[He is thrown into confusion again by Bones' words: he is so assured, is it possible he is from before..? Spock does not know, and he can't lie, not about this. He decides not to make any conclusions, they have been here for a few days and him, only minutes.]
Of course, Doctor. Lead the way. [Quietly:] Please.
[It is then that he moves, carefully staying near (but not touching) Jim to support him from the other side.]
