"Welcome back from Spring Break. I hope you all had a restful, relaxing week, and are ready to get back to class."

"I'd like each of you to give your presentations that I assigned before you left."

Phoebe signs in and asks for an extension. "Dr. Grissom... most of us were working on finding a cure for our poisoned classmate and didn't have time to write up a presentation. If you'd like, I can get notes from the clinic?"

"That's not necessary, I'm well aware of Angel's... incident. However, I assigned this presentation over a week and a half ago, and I know you also had the weekend. Did something else happen that I am unaware of?"

He has to be a bit of an oblivious hard-ass sometimes. Of course, that will last all of... no more comments.

Phoebe looked at him steadily and decided to be honest. "You know how we have talked about witches and the afterlife and other things in your Paranormal class? Well, everyone knows I'm a witch. What you may not know is that one of my powers is that of empathy. After a week of trying to find something to help heal Angel, and doing the spell, my empathy became overwhelmed from everyone's emotions on Friday night and I spent most of the weekend in bed, dealing with a empathic migraine."

Phoebe likes Grissom and sees no reason to be anything but honest. "Now, I have enough knowledge of my subject matter that I culd probably wing a presentation and get a passing grade. However, that would bring my grade down in your class aqnd I have too much respect for you not to give the assignment my best attempt. It's up to you sir."

"No, Phoebe, that's more than fine. I've been pre-occupied lately, I'm sorry to hear about your migraine. They're not exactly an enjoyable experience," he says with true empathy.

"Can you be ready by Wednesday, or do you need the week?"

She smiled. "Thank you, sir."

Phoebe looked a bit confused. "I can have it done by tomorrow, no problem. Do you want me to come to your office hours tomorrow."
