Office hours/Archaeology

Daniel had stuck a note on the classroom door directing any archaeology students who turned up to find him in his office if they needed him.

Having sent his letter of acceptance off yesterday afternoon, he was now listing what needed to be done before he went.

He also had Expedia open on his computer.

"Some, but I know that I a lot of it is suggested memories of what Naomi's told me."

Daniel nodded. "Exactly. I have vague memories of these two people, who I know I love dearly and who loved me. I also know that I wouldn't be in anthropology and archaeology if it wasn't for them. But my experiences in foster homes helped make me the man I am. Would I have graduated high school at sixteen if my parents had lived? Probably not. Who's to say that I would have even been educated in America?"

"That's true." Blair nodded. "As much as you miss having them around, you have to be grateful for the rest of the oppurtunitys that life gave you."

"That's very karmically sound."

"I find it's best not to look upon life as what could have been," Daniel said. "Look on it as something that has happened, be it for better or worse. With your case, would growing up with a father have been better?" He shrugged. "We don't know. How about other male role models? Have you had those?"

Blair shrugged and grinned. "Not until I got here, man. I had lots of 'uncles' growing up but I never really met guys I could look up to till I got to Fandom."

"You're young yet," Daniel said. "You've got, what? Another three years here, providing you stay until you graduate?"

"Yup." Blair bounced. "After Friday, I won't be a freshman anymore!"

[identity profile] the-ascended.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
Daniel grinned. "No, you'll be a sophomore instead. No longer the youngest in the school."

[identity profile] lovechildblair.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
"Yay!" Blair bounced. "Although wouldn't it be awful if we didn't get any new freshman? We'd be sophomore's but everyone would still think we were the youngest and it would just really suck."

"Do you know if there are new freshman coming?"

[identity profile] the-ascended.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know anything about the school's new intake, but it's highly probably that they'll be new freshmen," Daniel said.

"Whew!" Blair bounced and grinned. "That's good to know."

[identity profile] the-ascended.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
"No promises though," Daniel grinned. "So if there aren't, you can't come back here and point out that I told you that there was going to be!"

Blair gave Dr. Jackson his best puppy dog eyes. "I'll have to have someone to put blame on!"

Having had three six year olds try that look on him over the weekend (normally when they were asking for coffee), Daniel had gained a certain immunity to it for the time being.

He snickered slightly. "I get the blame for enough things, I think."

[is using wee!blair icon because I wasn't around enough this week to have Blair come see Daniel]

"Oh well. We'll just have to hope it works out and no one has to be blamed for anything."

[identity profile] the-ascended.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
[[Hee! Wee!Blair is very cute! And I wasn't around as much as I wanted to at the weekend either. *woes*]]

Daniel grinned. "I'm sure it will do," he nodded.

Blair stretched and glanced at his watch. "Man, I've been here for a while! I should get going."

"Sorry man, I didn't mean to take up so much of your time!"

[identity profile] the-ascended.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Daniel shook his head. "Not a problem, Blair. It was nice talking to you."

[identity profile] lovechildblair.livejournal.com 2006-05-04 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
"You too, man." Blair bounced off.
