[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

The gym was decorated, the DJs were playing, and the punch was not yet spiked.

Fandom High's Valentine's Day Dance had begun.

Sam waved to Josh as she walked by on her way to the punchbowl. "Evening, Professor Lyman. Having fun?"

Josh was totally not snickering at Zero (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/653795.html?thread=31052515#t31052515). "Hello, Sam," he said. "I'm having fun. Hee. Mr. 'I Think I Can Get Away With White Spandex' just had a run-in with some punch." He grinned. "I'm amused."

She turned around and looked over her shoulder. "I can see why. Poor guy should have just worn a target or something."

"It's not like it would've ruined the lines of his outfit or anything," Josh snarked.

"Having fun?"

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Oh, sure," Sam replied. "The snark corner is especially bitter and lively tonight."

Josh grinned. "Glad to hear it. This sort of holiday shouldn't be ruined by the fine people over at Hallmark."

"Professor Lyman, you worked for the government." Sam grinned at him a bit wickedly. "Would you know if there was really an international conspiracy behind Valentine's Day?"

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

Josh grinned. "I could know, but I'm pretty sure you don't have the clearance to hear about it. Death by paper cuts and candy hearts is a terrible way to go."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sam raised an eyebrow. Her clearance was probably at least as high as his, if not higher. "As long as they don't pull out the love ballads, I think I can stand it."

Josh shuddered. "If they break out the Celine Dion, I'll fold like a cheap card table."

"How does she not violate our treaties with Canada, again?"

"Part of the negotiations with over American boybands, I think. They get *Nsync and the Backstreet Boys, we get Celine, Avril and more Bryan Adams than could be considered strictly necessary."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"There's a recommended daily amount of Bryan Adams? Man, the government is regulating everything these days."

She put her hands on her hips. "And where do the Brits fall into all of this? Because we should definitely stop things like the Spice Girls from invading the country. That should be considered a hostile act."

"Personally I think they should've been banned under the Geneva Conventions, but that's just me."

He grinned. "But that would just open up a whole can of worms for the disco we inflicted on the world back in the 70s and soon we'd all be dragged up the Hague and chaos would reign."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Oh, yes, by all means, let's not be held accountable for Disco. Gah." She shuddered. "I still rem...er, I used to hear stories about roller skating rinks and flashing colored lights."

"It was a terrible, terrible time," Josh said. "I blame it on the Republicans."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"And what do the Republicans blame it on?"

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

"I'm hoping incredibly powerful narcotics, but I've never asked any of them," Josh replied.

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Seriously, how does anything ever get done?"

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

Josh ran a hand through his hair. "I'm going with luck, personally. And never underestimate the power of vindictiveness. Ram through a bill just to piss off some Congressman who hit on your wife at a Christmas party back in 1984..."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Your wife got hit on at a Christmas party in 1984?" Sam was confused. "I didn't know you were married."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

"Oh, not me," Josh said, shaking his head. "That was the the chairman of the House Commerce Committee a few years back." He grinned. "You'd also be surprised how long some offices can hold grudges about staffer softball games and accidentally forget to include your line items in a final version of a bill."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Wow, that's petty." She smiled back. "How competitive are those games, anyway?" The ones at the SGC had been pretty bad--until it was decided that the winning team from the prior game had to take Daniel during the next one.

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

"Well it depends," Josh said. "if you're in the 'you knocked over my beer' league, the 'beer and softball are equally important' league or the 'we recruit our interns based on how well they play baseball' league." He winked. "There's a rumor that the real reason the FBI and the CIA don't get along dates back to a blown call at a softball game twenty years ago."

Re: Chaperones - Professor Lyman

"And you? Do you play softball?" Sam got an idea, but decided to run it by someone on Student Council first. "See, and I thought it was all the spying on each other that did it. You should write a book."
