Fandom High Observatory, Saturday afternoon

Ellie opened up the observatory for the Parents Weekend school tour. Unfortunately, it being in the middle of the day, she didn't have anything they could actually observe through the telescope, but the dome was open for any who wanted to take a look at her baby. She did have lots of pictures of astronomical phenomenas on display, however.

"Dr. Arroway? My name is Sydney LaVert. I believe my goddaughter is in your class?" Sydney had admired the telescope and talked to Jack and Parker until he was certain Dr. Arroway was free.

Ellie looked around and assumed by granddaughter he meant Parker, since she was in the room. "Parker? Yes, yes she is. She's a bright young woman," Ellie said.

"I just wanted to check that there weren't any problems. Parker's attention span tends to wander if she isn't engaged in the material," Sydney said, looking mildly apologetic.

Ellie smiled. "She's doing fine. In fact, she was the first to come to me with an idea for a science fair project."

"Ah. I'm glad she's applying herself, then. She's been well, then? No problems that you've seen, conflicts with other students?"

"She's been a perfect student," Ellie confirmed. "A pleasure to have in class, really. She seems to get along well with everyone from what I've seen."

Sydney stifled a laugh. "Then she must be happy here; when she is not, those in the vicinity know it. And I'm delighted she is doing well." He held out his hand to Dr. Arroway. "Thank you for taking the time to speak with me, Dr. Arroway. I appreciate your reassurance."

Ellie shook Sydney's hand. "Very nice to meet you," she said. "I hope you enjoy your visit at the school."
