[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.

"I can't do the internship till I've done Anatomy. I plan on doing the internship in my third quarter." Hope was shooed. He moved back to his former perch and swung his legs gently.

"So... uhm." Hope paused a moment. How... to bring this up. "I... Did I tell you guys it's my birthday soon?" Hope shuffled. He didn't want to impose a celebration on them, he considered just having the family together for a meal, or perhaps just Snow and Lightning going on a Trip somewhere with Hope, but... it was his first birthday since the brand. He wanted to do something.

"It's next saturday."

"I meant eventually," Snow said. "Sounds like you got the plan, though."

Snow normally wasn't a great liar... but in the service of giving Hope a good surprise, even he could come off casual and natural. "Light mentioned that, actually. We were thinking that we ought to take you out to dinner somewhere in the city, while we have the chance. Sound good?"

Perfect cover to get him maneuvered into position. Snow mentally congratulated himself.

"That sounds awesome." He said with a big smile. He's glad they've taken up the line of birthday planners without having to ask, which was nice. He threw his water bottle up in the air and caught it. Looking up at the ceiling.

"Hows teaching going?" he asked, swinging his legs.

Oh, you had no idea, Hope, and it's taking all Snow's effort to hide his gloating.

"Great!" he said. "I never would've thought I could do it, but to be honest, I'm loving it. I even think I'm doing a kind of good job sometimes."

"Well I think you'd be a good teacher. I mean, teaching is kind of like leading isn't it?" Hope commented, looking up at him.

"It's like you have a whole new group of people to lead. You just lead them a little slower and less... into battle." Hope said with a smile. Thinking about the many many times Snow had been hit by things in place of him.

"I might even take your class. Not that I'd be any good at martial arts I think." Though saying that, Since being here Hope had started to pick up a little muscle definition, what with the training classes and the rock climbing.

"Charge in, minds blazing," he quipped, grinning. "Never really thought about it like that. I guess it does kind of remind me of the good old days. Though I lead my students into plenty of mock-fights, or else how would they learn?" Snow punched his palm, a little harder than normal just to make a satisfying noise.

"Who're you kidding, Hope? You'd do fine. Now would actually be a really good time for you to start, if you ask me."
