That was always going to be someone else's problem.
[Kirk of the future's problem, honestly. Long term planning wasn't exactly his strong suit- And if he's even more honest with himself (rarely), he'd been hoping when it blew up in his face, he could make it Spock's problem.
He loses the grin slowly, but he settles on neutral. That- Hurts almost, maybe. Disappointing Pike hadn't exactly been what he'd been aiming for. But it's not like he hasn't had a lifetime full of not meeting expectations]
Yeah, I guess you do. [About- A lot of things. It's just...Easier to be angry than to try to apologize. Because it's not like he's sorry] I didn't think you could take it. And- Sir, let's not dip into hypocritical here. I didn't see you rushing off to tell Spock about what happened to Vulcan.
[Nevermind that was a younger version of Spock Prime- But considering the whole damn thing was his fault in the first place, probably relevant to his interests]
