Star Trek drabble: Forewarning [Spock, general]
Title: Forewarning Author: celandineb Fandom: Star Trek AOS Character: old Spock Rating: general Length: 100 words Summary: Spock contemplates the wisdom of advising his younger self. Note: I re-watched Star Trek: Into Darkness recently, and this resulted.
How can one advise one's other self? Reality is already different. Vulcan is gone. The future has changed the past—so that same future is no longer possible. Anything said or done might change it still further, to unknown ends. Moreover it would be wrong to try to affect destiny. Each sentient being must find his, or her, own path. And yet—if my knowledge might save the life not only of myself, of Spock, but of James Kirk and Nyota Uhura and the rest of the crew of the Enterprise, how can I do otherwise but to share it?
