[Deep down, somewhere where Uhura will only discover once she's fully calmed down and reflected back on this incident, she will be grateful he didn't say that. For all that Kirk is brash and bold, cocky and sometimes downright idiotic, he's a man who knows good and well when things just don't need to be said. False platitudes won't help. Support of the rest of the crew--her friends and family--will. Some of them weren't as close to Spock as she and Jim were, but one additional piece of the puzzle missing will sorely be noticed.
Last time she cried into somebody's shoulder, sobbed right into their shirt, soaking the fabric, it was over Jim. Now it's over Spock. She's tired of doing this multiple times for the people she loves.]
