My head canon: Pike knows his days are limited. He’s raising a successor as first officer if Una takes command, or potentially a new captain. This way he can get to know the ship and the crew, and they can get to know him.
It's almost like he's waiting for something

You’re not wrong. Pike has alluded to this many times, and seems to get more comfortable with life, the closer he gets to death.

This is the first time in the “true” timeline we’ve seen Jim Kirk, other than in a voice call with La’an. The previous two instances were from alternate timelines thanks to the Klingon time monks and a fallen Department of Temporal Investigations officer.

Second time. He was in the episode with the aliens trying to communicate with Uhura telepathically, causing her to hallucinate zombie Hemmer.

I just happened to be in the quadrant, and I thought I’d swing by and try to shag your women… er study that anomaly ?
keefshape@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Yup. We can now see where Kirk got his game.

Jim just wants to find out the secret to Chris’ hair regimen.

It has been two weeks, and i just need to come back and state for the record. I desperately want Chris Pike hair. This is no longer Anson Mount envy. I straight up want Pike hair.
That is all. Make it so.

Makes sense. That is a mane that radiates authority and command.

That jaw line too.
