Quantum Physics 225: Monday, Fifth Period
A teenage boy, looking vaguely apprehensive in a striped tie, dress shirt, and nice trousers, is sitting on top of the desk in the Doctor's classroom. For some reason, he speaks with authority and a touch of attitude. Every so often he runs his hand through his mop of messy brown hair. And he seems to be pouting, just a little.
It was fortunate Turlough had left some of his clothing behind, or he'd definitely be in jeans and a t-shirt. And that? Would not be cool. It would suck. Though it would be more comfortable...
He fiddles with his tie.
"Okay. So. Discussion last week was good, especially Crichton, Sam." His voice cracks on the A in Sam and he winces. "Crap. Anyway. Today, each of you are going to talk--to me and to the class--about your selected Influential Persons. What did they do to be so great? I want to know. Even if I already know, which I probably do, but whatever.
"Assignment for Wednesday is to think about, say, two events in each of your two people's lives that could have been subtly changed--and what effects that would have on the future. Extrapolate, but don't be stupid about it or exaggerate, or whatever. Cool? Cool. Sweet. Go on, then."
He looks like he isn't exactly certain where 'cool' came from, or 'sweet', then mutters something that may sound like 'bloody CJ'. And then he pauses.
"Oh, yeah, and if you don't listen to the radio...yes, I'm the bloody Doctor. The usual rules in this class apply, and if you act like jerks, I will totally drag you by the ear to Smith's office."
