i’ve heard a lot of pre-reform/mirrorverse headcanons that make Amanda some sort of slave/prostitute/servant who comes into sarek’s household as a damsel like HOLD UP

if anything, AMANDA is the one who swoops in on all them unsuspecting vulcans and gets the catch of the day. trophy husband in hand, Amanda continues hecking up whatever she wants with baby spock in a sling, teaching him the ways of a warrior

sarek, bless him, has not been able to turn the heart eyes off since they met

In 1967, she appeared as Amanda, Mr Spock’s human mother in the Star Trek TV series, a part she took almost two decades later in the movie Star Trek IV: the Voyage Home (1986). During a Trekkie convention, a fan asked her: “If you are Spock’s mother, you should be able to tell us, what is Spock’s first name?” Hardly pausing, she replied, “Harold”.
