Office Hours 3: Office Hourser

[haha-steelguard.livejournal.com]

Character(s): Snow and whoever else shows up.

Location: Second floor, the training classrooms

Rating: PG

Open/Closed/Finished: Open

Summary: Once again, Snow is holding office hours!



Didn't matter if you were in his classes or not, really. Snow had claimed a classroom during free hours in the evening, and casually put around word that he was free to talk about any concerns, questions, problems, or general comments the students might have. His class, any class, whatever.

Of course, fellow SeeDs and Instructors could drop by too.

Unusually, this time around, Snow's actually at a desk, writing something. The world might possibly be coming to an end.

Comments

"You actually know how to write?" Espio couldn't help but joke as he walked into the room. He had no idea why he'd even come up here, but he was bored. "Long time no see, I guess."

"Once I realized that punching the paper didn't work, I knew I had to figure out the real way to do it," Snow joked right back. He set aside the paper for a moment, though.

"Been a while since I've seen you around. How're classes going this quarter? And is it this one or next one you're supposed to be graduating?" He smiled a little wryly. "Things've gotten so crazy here lately I can't keep track like I used to."

"Well," Espio said, leaning on the desk, "if I wanted to graduate as a Martial Arts specialist, I could do it this quarter. But I don't. So I have to wait 'til next quarter, because I haven't done all the prereqs for Piloting yet. Seems a bit silly, taking an extra quarter just to take one class, but..."

"Got anything else in mind to fill your schedule?" Snow sat back in his chair, thinking. He had an idea or two, but...

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

He just got a shrug in reply, before Espio figured he'd elaborate. "Not really... I haven't got any compulsory classes left - assuming I pass the dance class, which looks more and more unlikely - and I already did the interesting electives. Looks like it'll just be padding with the classes I'm not into."

That's about what he'd thought. "If you're interested, I could see if I could get you a spot as teaching assistant for whatever of my classes didn't conflict with your schedule. It'd help give the students more one-on-one attention, and some more variety for sparring."

A teaching assistant? Really? Espio nearly snorted - he couldn't really picture it - but... it was actually an interesting suggestion! It would save him from excessive boredom, at the very least.

"It'd be something to do," he said, after a moment. "So that's an option, sure."

"I'll run that by Quistis, then. I don't see why she'd disapprove, but that's no reason not to play by the rules."

He scoured his memory for some more details, then. "You didn't get a chance to work with Sazh, did you?"

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

Espio actually had to think about that for a moment - it was a name that sounded familiar, but he couldn't place it for a moment. "No. I had the other instructor."

Snow frowned slightly. "That's a shame. He's from my world, so I've seen what he can do. You might want to touch base with him, see if he can put some pointers your way. He might be open to the same thing."

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

"He's a pilot, right?" Must be, considering what he was teaching. "I have plenty of experience piloting, but the vehicles here are nothing like back home. I guess taking a few pointers wouldn't be too bad of an idea."

[haha-steelguard.livejournal.com]

Snow nodded. "A good one. He saved our skins more than once. I think you could learn from him, even with your classes behind you."

Hopefully Sazh agreed, but Snow won't hesitate to lean on him!
