i love spock with cats just like everyone and i don’t know how much y’all know about cat body language but i felt this would be important to share
this cat is extremely happy (understandable), she’s slow blinking (sign that she’s content/comfortable) and even making biscuits a little bit (the way she clenched her paws like she’s kneading, another sign of comfort/that she trusts the person she’s with)
and i can’t find any other clips but you can tell the whole episode that the cat actor is just so excited to be there
anyways that wasn’t really important i just think it’s nice

Ok but Y/N gentle parenting her boyfriend Lip in the most loving way.
Y/N: Lip Darling I know your feeling really angry right now and your feelings are totally valid but we can’t yell at people. So let’s try to think of ways we can express are anger without shouting.
stop this is so silly and sweet i love it!! this was healing for me to write cause ive been so stressed with school
he’s so frustrated, midterms and work and south side shit all tumbling around in his brain and making him crazy. you can feel the tension in the air as he lights a cigarette and cracks the window open. you move to stand by his side, wrapping one soft curl around your finger. but he jerks his head away with a scowl.
“please. fuckin’- don’t. heads pounding.” he says firmly, then asks. “when’s- uh. when’s your class again?”
you shake your head, taking the cig from between his lips. “cancelled. professor’s kid has the flu. i was thinkin’ about staying for a while, yeah?”
he huffs angrily. “jesus! don’t you ever go home? always in my fuckin’ room-“
you cut him off with gentle words. “hey, hey! lip.” he looks up at you, the anger on his face relaxing into remorse. “you’re stressed out, yeah?”
he nods, running a hand through his messy curls. he’s fidgety. you hand him back his cig.
“hm, and overworked?”
he huffs out a half laugh and replies, “yeah. yeah.”
you offer him a sweet smile. “there we go. see? you can tell me what you’re feeling without gettin’ all mean.”
lip sighs, finally reaching out to place one rough palm against your cheek. he thumbs over your smooth skin, taking you in for a moment. “yeah, you’re right. m’sorry baby.”
you cover his hand with your own and lean into his touch. you keep your voice sweet and understanding, soothing his frustrations and worries with your words. “if you want some alone time, you just gotta tell me.” you pause, watching his face, then add. “d’you want me to go? i don’t mind. promise.”
he thinks for a moment before stubbing his cig out and shaking his head. his nervous hands find a blunt and a lighter, pressing a sweet kiss to your cheek as he goes. “jus’ stay here, an’ smoke this with me?”
you perch yourself on his desk, pulling him in by his belt loops so he stands between your legs. “sounds like a plan to me,” you murmur, squeezing his hand where it rests on your thigh. “how ‘bout a nap after? we got a few more hours ‘til dinner, and i love you but… you look like hell,” you say with a soft laugh.
his lips quirk into a smile around the blunt as he nods. as he exhales, you can see him starting to relax further. “fuckin’ exhausted,” he grumbles, passing you the blunt and dropping his head to rest on your shoulder. “dunno what i’d do without you.”
“be a raging cunt to everyone.” you reply quickly, smirking at your own remark, and he laughs. it’s the first time you’ve heard him truly laugh all day.
“guess i deserved that one, huh.”

“Please, James?” Regulus begs, tugging at the hem of James’ sweater. “Pretty, pretty please?”
James sighs. “Reggie. Honey. Love of my life. I’m not buying you another squishmallow.” He keeps a steady face, despite the corners of his lips itching to smile. He’s not willing to concede to Regulus’ pleas just yet. “No more, Reg. I’m being serious.”
“Sirius, unlike you, wouldn’t hesitate to buy me one.” Regulus pouts and his face playfully scrunches up.
James stares down at Regulus, who glares back up at him defiantly. Unsurprisingly, he manages to last a total of ten seconds, a new record for James to be fair, before putting his hands up in surrender.
Regulus gasps in the delight of victory, as if he had a chance of losing anyways. He closes the short distance between them, stands on the very tips of his toes, and presses a series of kisses to James’ cheek. “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” Regulus repeats in between each kiss.
He scurries off to the squishmallow bin, no doubt racing to beat off any children who so much as think about taking his favorite. James stays back, content in watching Regulus from afar as he practically dives headfirst into the crate.
And later, when Regulus emerges from the bin like a soldier from the trenches, a frog shaped stuffie in hand and a childish grin on his face, James finds he doesn’t regret a thing.
