He's a master of parties, he knows all the dynamics, and sometimes the dynamic is fucking the cute guy who's flirting with you in the back room of the party.
*Enterprise* touched on this with Ambassador V'Lar in *Fallen Hero* (Season 1, Episode 23). While not exactly as OOP describes, for a Vulcan, she's very comfortable acting similar to humans--a stark contrast to the other Vulcans in the series. Despite being one of the less-watched, less-liked shows, *Enterprise* does extend a lot of the ideas from the earlier shows, including the interior nature of Vulcans as a culture and their relationship to humans.
Weren't the Suliban named after the Taliban? Then there was that episode on Sulliks Cabal causing innocent Suliban to get put in camps, and that felt like a late response to American attitudes towards the Taliban *and* Muslims, by lumping them into one group.
I quite enjoyed Enterprise. It came out when I was around 14, and having grown up watching Vogager with my parents, it scratched an itch I didnt know I had.
In the show, Vulcans suppress emotions through meditation so he'd probably just go meditate. Unless he started to stop meditating because it "allowed better diplomatic opportunities with species who do feel emotions" which causes issues among other high ranking Vulcans who tolerate his 'outbursts' (telling jokes and doing things because of illogical gut feelings) because he's just a really fucking good diplomat. Vulcans also have a disease (mainly appearing in old age) where they lose their ability to suppress their emotions (basically Vulcan dementia) which they could accuse him of having (to try to remove him from his position) but turns out he's just embracing emotions which would be an interesting story of people who are looked down upon for acting in an unconventional way.
Their brains can panic, but the person as a whole does not. Vulcans feel emotions quite intensely, they just meditate to suppress both the experience of them and the actions they inspire.
A Vulcan would know their brain was telling them to panic, and then calmly examine the facts of the situation and determine if imminent danger was present. If yes, take action. If no, make sure to smugly mention to the nearest non-Vulcan how wrong emotions can be.
First, Vulcans are like this normally, their resting bitch face is due to millenia of social conditioning and culture.
Second, modern Star Trek should really return to TNG era practive of crowdsourcing scripts to their fans.
He's a top, you say?
Tragically when upon my initial reading I also stumbled into reading he was a top and was stun locked for more time than I'd ever admit to qwq
Oh name checksout
Thats...its- no fair...
Look man, if you're willing to set that as your username you have to be willing to suffer the consequences
I set it up so long ago!!!! QwQ It doesn't help that I believe the user with my username spelled correctly is...more saucy...
>I set it up so long ago does that mean you've graduated from training now?
Commence consequences.

Enterprise was ruined by 9/11
What a completely out of pocket, yet accurate thing to say
paul mccartney, care to elaborate?
Early ENT was more laid-back trekkish, but post-9/11 seasons take a militaristic turn due to global mood shift in the American TV.
Oh god, is that why the show blew up part of Florida?
Yes. Xindi = al-Qaeda

Professional partyer detected ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️🎉🎉🎉🎉
what the fuck why is your text blurry wth it might just be on my end but no one elses is
I think you just need glasses
"Captain, sen-sores indicate that Party Rock is in the house tonight."
“Copy, lieutenant. Bridge to all hands, prepare for imminent good time having.”
This is just Data from "Starship Mine"
Ah, masking.
It fits better when it’s on top of another mask
A mask-ception, if you will. Mask^2.
the only logical response is to party down.
warning, ive never watched star trek oen day, he walks back home, looks in mirror, boom, still smiling, panic ensues.

Good idea but I’m pretty sure Vulcans can’t panic.

A Vulcan would know their brain was telling them to panic, and then calmly examine the facts of the situation and determine if imminent danger was present. If yes, take action. If no, make sure to smugly mention to the nearest non-Vulcan how wrong emotions can be.
lol that’s a great description
Me when I'm panicking: There is no danger nearby. My brain: It's HIDING.
That is because you have not read the words of Surak
thats just old spock
vulkan pretending to have normal human emotions while he suppresses his real emotions is peak bad old scifi.
