Office Hours, Tuesday

[on_her_korhal]

The problem with seguing into class after a mildly worldview-upsetting adventure back home was that after two weeks, Kerrigan still didn't actually have a decent syllabus set up.

So she was in her office, making ridiculous amounts of coffee as she tried to figure things out.

[ open hours! ]

"Yeah," Kerrigan said, smirking bigger, "I remember."

Because that had been hilarious.

"Hey, I didn't do that badly and I didn't have to take off my shirt," he said because that was an accomplishment in that class.

"Didn't you end up giving an inspiring lecture on underwear?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"You found it inspiring?" Hey, he knew sarcasm, he just couldn't help but tease. "If it inspired one person than my job is done."

Kerrigan rolled her eyes. Again. "You just wait until the next teacher with an unhealthy fascination with your arms comes around, Adama."

"You don't like my arms, Lieutenant?" Lee asked, crossing said arms in front of him.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

They were nice arms.

"The only consideration I have towards your arms is that maybe one day they'll do something useful. Like not loiter in my office."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"It's not loitering," he said with a frown. "Visiting, visiting. I'm visiting you."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"You're standing in my office." Pause. "With your arms, and you're not contributing anything. That's loitering."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"I am too," he argued. "I'm contributing stimulating conversation and amusement."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Kerrigan stared at him. "Stimulating conversation?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Are you bored with me?" Lee asked.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I'm annoyed with you," Kerrigan noted. Happily.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"But not bored," he said, sounding very much like he'd just won whatever battle they were having.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Is there no end with you, Adama?"

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"I'm just pointing out some very basic facts, Lieutenant," Lee said cheerfully. "You want me to leave, huh?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Kerrigan pressed two fingers to her forehead. "You're giving me a headache. Shoo."

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Will you miss me?" Lee asked, backing up towards the door. "Will you just be awaiting my next visit?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"If you keep this up, I'm going to ask the Dean permission to make you run laps in your underwear every morning for a week," she muttered.

Which, mind, might just make her week one day.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

I'm not doing anything," he chanted before giving her one last smile and slipping out of her office.

Kerrigan let her forehead thunk on the desk.

Yeah, she was back, all right. She mumbled some choice words about Adama's lineage (with respect to his father) into the wood before getting up for her next cup of coffee.
