Where everybody knows your name

Ryan stretched his back as he sat down, a little sore from the morning's workout as he sat down at a lunch table. And more training this afternoon. Whee, he griped to himself as he started on his food.

"Hey, fly boy." Rachel said as she started to sit down "Is this seat taken?"

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:49 am

"Well, I was saving it for a pretty redhead that I know, and oh! There she is!" he said with a grin, nodding her toward the seat.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:50 am

"How've you been?" Rachel asked, sitting down across from him.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:54 am

"Oh, not bad. Lectures and training schedules are kicking my ass, I think I got spoiled over the summer," he said. "How about you? Still settling in all right?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:55 am

"I think so." Rachel said "My classes are interesting and I'm getting to meet a lot of new people. They've even roped me into tutoring one of the XI kids."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:59 am

"Ah, Aisha?" he guessed. "I thought they were going to give me a chance to run the idea by you first. Sorry about that."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:01 am

"Its cool." Rachel said "We've met once, sort of informally. She's a nice kid, but if the theory about her power is right, she needs to work on her attitude."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:03 am

"She's not the only one," Ryan said, sighing a little. "But she's gotten a little better since she got here, at least, so I don't think it's hopeless."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:06 am

"Oh? Got some other problem children?"

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:11 am

"If they aren't all insecure because of their powers, they've got home problems. Or they're flipped out about being displaced over here from home. Or they're just taking all their teenage-mutant angst out on us by being little jackasses in class. I think we might have... oh, three who could be considered what passes for a well-adjusted teenager."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:12 am

"Kids these days." Rachel said with a smirk "In my day, we had to walk both ways, up hill to power control class. And we liked it! And if we back talked, time in the box."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:13 am

Ryan mock-glared at her across the table. "Keeeep talking. See where it gets you," he warned her, sounding thoroughly amused.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:44 am

"Hey, I'm just sayin'. Kids these days, they don't know how easy they have it."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:47 am

"Got more than half a mind to put you over my knee, young lady," he quipped with a smirk.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Sun Sep 09, 2012 2:01 am

"Promises, promises." Rachel teased back.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Tue Sep 11, 2012 3:30 pm

"Well, obviously you wouldn't be interested in going out to do anything with such an old man later..." Ryan teased.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Tue Sep 11, 2012 11:45 pm

"I didn't say that." Rachel said "I think you might have a few good years left in you."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Tue Sep 11, 2012 11:51 pm

"Well, I know that it's a week night, but I was thinking maybe we could go into town for dinner. I know a little place on the west end of town that's good and should be quiet, too."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 1:50 am

"That sounds like fun." Rachel said with a smile "I've got some reading to do, does seven work for you?"

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 1:56 am

"Seven should be good," he agreed. "Y'know, if you do want to stay in you can just tell me. Not exactly a bad thing to have someone reminding me that I need to do my studying," he added with a smile. "Just, y'know, something to remember for the future."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 2:04 am

"Oh, believe me, I'm going to need the break." Rachel said. "Don't worry, I won't let you wreck my study habits."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 2:08 am

"Good," Ryan said. "Just... stuff I've learned to get clear. So how're things in the infirmary?"

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 2:09 am

"Going ok." Rachel said "They mostly have me shadowing one of the healers, to get a better idea of how to use my power."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 2:19 am

"Yeah, I've heard that usually lasts a week or two before they let you start getting your hands dirtier," he said. "So you might be on your own by the time I have my first visit," he added teasingly.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Wed Sep 12, 2012 2:23 am

"I hope not." Rachel said "I can't actually heal people, so I'm going to be stabilizing patients until the docs or the healers do their thing."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:11 am

"Well, you know, in some places they manage to save people's lives without healers," he teased.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:33 am

"Well, yeah." Rachel said "I'm just saying, my main job is going to be keeping people stable. Although one of the docs thinks I might be able to learn to help diagnose hormone disorders."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:47 am

"Sorry," Ryan said holding up his hand in surrender. "Reflex. I've known plenty of people who go in with their power and let that define what they can do and what they should learn and don't bother learning beyond that. I'm projecting, I'll stop."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 12:56 am

"Yes, teacher." Rachel said with a smile, "But yeah, that is why I'm also studying regular nursing. My power is going to help me do my job, not be my job."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 1:03 am

Ryan gave her another look. "Fine, fine, I'll stop doing the teacher thing. Unless it does it for you," he teased.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 1:26 am

Rachel just smirked and took a bite of her lunch.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu Sep 13, 2012 1:33 am

"I'll take that as a 'maybe,'" Ryan teased.

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 12:55 am

"I'm saying nothing." Rachel said "I am too sweet and innocent for your innuendo."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 12:57 am

"Of course. My mistake, I'm sorry," he said with a smirk. "I never doubted your sweetness or innocence, I know exactly how sweet and innocent you are."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:05 am

"That you do.' Rachel said with a smirk

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:10 am

"But we can talk about that later. After dinner. Totally innocently."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:18 am

"Naturally."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:33 am

"I'll have to make sure to keep all the crazy perverts who might get ideas about you away."

by **Rachel O'Brien** » Fri Sep 14, 2012 1:36 am

"Well, maybe not all the crazy perverts."
