Define: Trouble?

Unfortunately, I cannot.
What troubles you, Aridane, is a subject only you can define. And subsequently, one to which only you can speak of.

Should you elect to do so, I only wish you to be aware, that given the opportunity, I would listen.

[ it take ariadne a few moments to respond to that, not even fully sure where to begin with it all, or even how to. because a big part of her knows that she needs to keep all these insecurities in check (be the persons she knows she should be) while another part of her just doesn't understand why she's having such a hard time understanding who she is now and just wants to be honest with people.
but the moment she does respond, she wishes he could see the expression in her eyes, as she seems almost touched by the simple gesture of his. ]

It's complicated, Spock. I don't know who I am anymore.

But I wish you knew how amazing you were for just saying this though.

[ in the solitude of his own quarters, Spock's gaze lifts to his mask. the reflective shards strung together, catching the dim light of the room and casting it as a lure in his direction.

he does not need to put it on to know what will come of it. ]

Respectfully Miss Ariadne, I do not believe there is a single member aboard this ship that knows who they are. And rightfully so.

My mother had imparted to me once that there is no nobler pursuit than the effort to understand one's self. But it is also a pursuit that if conducted correctly- will never be finished. It is the nature of all living things to change.

You will continue to do so. As will I, as will we all.
There is no reason to fear that which we do not yet understand.

Your mother sounds like an amazing woman, Spock.

But I'm not sure I like the person I'm becoming.

In which case allow me to say that it is my hope that you draw comfort in this. As you will not be her indefinitely.

[ she wants to believe what he is saying - she really does - but giving all that she is dealing with (fischer, all the lying, nightmares and the mask) and how she is reacting to things, it's making it a bit more difficult to see. ]

You don't know that though. You really don't know what the future holds for anyone.
And we have to deal with the here and now first, don't we?

Are you afraid, Ariadne?

Of a lot of things.
More than I should be.

Are you?
