Honour tickled annoyingly at the back of his mind where he usually stifled it for his profession's sake. If he was going to take something from someone, Spock usually preferred to do so while they were mostly conscious and able to try to stop him (usually with a low rate of success).
"Luck is hardly in question when you are present, Captain." He expected the knock on the door right after he finished his statement, and rose to answer it. Less than a minute later, he was seated across from Kirk again, with a healthy serving of eggs and potatoes between them, along with several biscuits (none of that hard tack nonsense), salted pork, some cheese, and three oranges already peeled and diced, one for every person in the cabin.
Spock went for his serving of fruit first, picking the nicest of the three forks available, all the prongs present and a simple pattern inlaid into the silver.
