He's extraordinarily competent and intelligent, and authoritative without ever needing to make a show of it. Nothing about him is flashy or performative — he has an aura of quiet certainty, one I found rather reassuring. He's also deeply logical and grounded, a trait I've always admired in others and, to be perfectly honest, one I've often wished came more natura. And while he's often perceived as emotionally distant, I think that misses the point. He's actually quite emotional! He simply has complete control over how and when that emotion is displayed.
In any case, I won't pretend Nimoy was some great beauty, but there was [...] an intensity to him that I found very compelling.
What I mean to say is that it seems highly unlikely at this point. Of course, one can never be entirely certain, but I do think their relationship has settled into something distinctly — although rather intensely — platonic.
You may be aware that I've been cursed with the burden of close friendship with Adrían Aldona. Why I was chosen to suffer in this particular way remains unclear, but that's beside the point. He is, perhaps unfortunately, my closest friend here. And sometimes — though not often, and usually when I am feeling less than charitable — his closeness with others can make me feel momentarily insecure about the nature of our own relationship. Are they closer? Why does our bond not resemble the one he shares with P xyz person?
But comparing one relationship to another is a reliable path to madness, particularly when the other bond in question is founded on something as deep and inexorable as the connection Domingo and Maryle share. You are also important to her; you just share a very different kind of relationship.

I feel as though I must clarify something: my relationship with Domingo is [...] entirely platonic. He is an old friend.

Why would that need clarification, Nikola?
