Office Hours, Tuesday All Day

[on_her_korhal]

It was her third week of being a teacher here, and Kerrigan was still not really used to having this office.

That's probably why she was leaning back in her chair and staring at the empty walls today.

Really.

"Small team, scanners, a lot of people lying in wait..." The Antigans wanted to leave. The Confeds wanted them to stay. We-- offered assistance. They needed mine. "Stealth is the name of the game." Kerrigan smiled at River.

"Distract them?" River asked with a grin. Did they anticipate something was going to happen?

"Distract and hide," Kerrigan said, pulling the screen back to its original position. "Not the proudest of battle tactics, but it'll save your life." I killed the top Confed. We stormed them. The Antigans greeted us like heroes.

That one got a little smile; she forced the bitter parts of it away. Sometimes it's worth it.

"Saving your live is important enough," River snorted. What does being a hero feel like?

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I'd like to think so," Kerrigan replied, sardonically. I wouldn't know.

What does being greeted like a hero feel like? And how would you define the difference? River tilted her head, looing at the screen. "I assume the Antigans agreed,"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

They did. Thwip went the back of the pen against the table. I'm a soldier. They don't train me to feel like a hero.

Sometimes you feel things you're not trained to. "Will you show me how you fight?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"If you show me yours." That came accompanied by a smug grin. Some training is for your own sanity.

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

Didn't get much training to save my sanity. "Will show you if you want." River grinned back.

"Whenever you're ready." Amused, now. I'm sorry.

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River giggled. "Could try and sneak up on you when you least expect it."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

That gave Kerrigan pause. Her eyes flicked up. "I don't think that'd be a good idea."

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

River burst out into a giggle again. "Maybe not."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

She smiled. River's laughter was infectious. A good kind of feedback loop. "How about you pick a place and time and we'll see who gets a whuppin', huh?"

[moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com]

"Next week? You chose a place." The idea was definitely a good one.

[Sorry, had to disappear and do RL things! I'd love for them to meet up and do this, can't say a day yet though as my schedule next week is uncertain.]
