The Doctor's (School) Office: Tuesday Office Hours

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[Yes, those are the strains of Johnny Cash coming from the Doctor's office today. Bloody deal with it if you need to see him. He's rather manic today, actually, as if he's had a good night's sleep for the first time in days.]

((Cally, this kinda means you. Or at least get him an email with your final project specs. As for the rest of you, Rhi's bored, which means Ten's bored, which generally leads to Havoc.))

[Like a person with a bad upbringing, she lingers in the doorway.]

The man in black today? You couldn't have picked something a little less...repetative?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

It suits my mood. [Ten is bouncy. Ridiculously bouncy. And his hair is all messed up.] Come in?

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Did you sleep well? I know you slept hard at least.

[She comes in and sits, crossing her legs.]

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

I had a BRILLIANT night's sleep, thank you, love. Do you want some coffee? [He doesn't even pretend not to be looking at her legs.]

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Coffee would be nice. [She has a silly smile on her face as she watches him bounce around.]

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Then coffee for the lovely Ms Cregg. [He pours her some just as she likes it, and hands her the mug, bending down to kiss her forehead. Then he leans against his desk, resting his ass on the edge of it.] So, about the going on holiday thing...when are we leaving?

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Tonight. I got tickets waiting at the gate, and we'll have to call a cab since Shane and Tara took the car. [She smiles softly] 3 tickets.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

So Jack is coming, then? [He sips his own coffee.] Brilliant. California's not that pretty in the 51st century.

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Of course he's coming...you pretty much have no say. [She laughs softly] Neither does he.

So, do you remember last night at all?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

I want him to come, love! As long as he doesn't do anything dumb like attempt to seduce his way through the 49ers' running squad. [He grins.]

Er...last night? You were there...with Adam? [He looks confused.] Why?

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

[She smiles mischeviously just before she hides her mouth behind her cup] You talk in your sleep.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Ohmygod...what did I say? [He looks at her, slightly horrified.]

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally wanders in a bit sheepishly. "Erm, sir? Hi."

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Ms Cally. Do come in!

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Thank you, sir." Cally sits across from him, and smiles. "I, erm, keep forgetting to try and tell you about my final project. But there's a really good reason for that, I swear."

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[The Doctor musses up his hair. His tone is kind.] And that would be?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"I have no idea what to do?" She bites her lower lip and hunches her shoulders slightly.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[He gets her a cup of coffee without asking.] Well, what are you interested in?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Erm, well, that whole predestination thingy? That's probably been one of the few things that has really, really made sense in my head, you know. But, like, I'd probably have to go beyond just the concept, and I'm not sure what exactly that would imply." She sips the coffee, and shrugs.

"Sorry I'm so much of a doofus about this." She laughs quietly, and takes another sip.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it, Ms Cally. What you can do over the break, if you get the chance to, is think: what about the concept interests you so much? From there, we can work together to find you a topic.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Right, sir." Cally nods, and takes another sip of the coffee. "Thanks for the help, and the drink, sir. Is there anything else I should be worrying about?"

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

You're doing just fine, Ms Cally. Really. Don't worry about anything.

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Thanks, sir." She stands up, and laughs. "Don't suppose you have those pictures now, do you?"

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

"Yes sir, right away." Cally laughs as she turns and heads towards the door. She turns when she reaches it. "Oh, and have a happy holiday yourself, sir. I'm not exactly sure if there's a proper greeting for it, cause I still don't understand it, to be honest, but I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiven, sir."

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

I'll give it a go, Ms Cally. Try and observe some of the local customs, yourself. [He smiles at her.] Ta.
