[Well, that answers that question. If you were his Spock, further down the timeline, you'd have no trouble recognizing him.

This also means your planet hasn't blown up horribly for you, yet, and that makes all of this really kind of awkward. So after a moment, it's just the slightest grin that appears, elbows settling on the arms of his chair and he leans forward to get a better look at the feed]

Now Spock, would I lie to you? [Yeah, that's rhetorical, and he's mostly poking fun of you for doubting him. Because hell fucking yes he'd lie to you. The problem is- He has no idea what's the same and what isn't other than the few obvious points. Not something they discussed. Settles on the only alternate universe information that he does know; and hopes it's enough]

You once told me that my father, George Kirk, was my inspiration for joining Starfleet. He lived to see me become Captain of the Enterprise.
