"Afternoon, everyone," Sam said from her perch on the desk. "It's good to see you all after the parental invasion this weekend. Rodney, I hope you found your sister."

"Today we'll be talking about light. The three primary properties of light are intensity, frequency or wavelength, and polarization."

"The human spectrum of visual is from red to violet, which can be seen individually when you look at white light through a prism," she explained, writing ROYGBIV on the board, near the equations, "but ultraviolet and infrared are just as important for human survival, as well as the survival of the planet. A red shift--where suddenly infrared light is visible to the human eye--is fatal after a remarkably short period of time. Not just to the humans, but to the things that humans depend on for food, such as plants and animals."

Not their shining moment of Stargate use, no.

"Light, obviously, can come from a number of different sources, although the primary source of light on this planet is obviously the sun. Light, which is thought to travel in waves, can be refracted, or bent through the use of optics. We'll get into theories of how light works next week. For now, I just want you to get used to seeing it and measuring it--there are prisms, magnifying lenses, and telescopes for you to work with, as well as different light sources, so you can see how the spectra of light differ. There are also spectrometers, so you can measure the light and try to predict its behavior, if that's your thing."

There was a long moment of silence.

"Oh, that had to be interesting."

Yes. Interesting.

"Good thing they were both at the clinic already?" Chad guessed, only left to assume that blows had to have been exchanged in that whole thing, knowing from personal experience about Ino's temper and knowing...enough about Ichigo's father's...eccentricities.

"I'm not sure how he survived it," Ichigo admitted and he wasn't going to repeat what his father had asked Ino. He'd die of embarrassment. "He should have just sent Karin and Yuzu instead."

Ichigo would die of embarrassment? This was Chad's sister they were talking about here!

"...come on, Ichigo," Chad said. "That clinic wouldn't survive a whole weekend without your sisters there."

Ino was stronger than he was. When it came to... these kind of things which he was currently not thinking about. Neither was he thinking about it in regards to Ino. Really.

"I know, but I wouldn't have minded him not traumatising everyone I know," he said. He was just sulking, really.

"At least it's over now?" Chad offered by way of support, which, he felt, was a much better way to go about it than bringing up the slightly conflicted feeling he was having here that at least Ichigo still had a parent that could visit him.

"I'm sure they'll understand that your dad is kind of insane."

Ichigo would be more than willing to share, but he doubted that would help Chad.

"Yeah, just..." he shook his head. "No matter. Apparently he got Orihime to mind Yuzu and Karin. I'm slightly worried what she tried feeding them."

Ichigo had a frighteningly excellent point.

"She was dipping onions in her coffee at Outback," he felt the need to share. "Most likely, I bet your little sisters were the ones feeding her. An' I'll bet Tatsuki-san came around an' helped at a few times, too."

That idea was a relief because Tatsuki was usually pretty smart and knew how to reign in Orihime without hurting her. "That's entirely too many women in one house," he decided, not sure why.

"At least none of us had to be there for it?" Chad offered, since, yeah, he definitely agreed with Ichigo there.

His father would have deserved it, but then he didn't think letting him alone with Inoue was a good idea. "Yeah, unless they managed to get you involved," he smirked.

The pause was even more extended, first to figure out what it was that Ichigo meant, and then a moment to realize the true horror of his words.

"Oh, no..."

Way to completely give Chad's already significant dislike of clinics even more fuel.

"There might have been a spider," he said, knowing full well Tatsuki would squash it in an instant.

Forget Tatsuki. Chad turned his head to give Ichigo a bit of a look.

"Yeah. I can picture Karin having any problem with a spider."

Damn. "So maybe you were safe then," he allowed with a sigh.
