Staff Meeting, Friday (After Classes) [09/12]

[bigdamnprincipal]

Now that the semester was underway, Zoe thought it might be a good idea to start regular meetings back up, and had handwavily informed all the teachers of when and where to be. There was pie, juice, coffee, and tea to keep them there in case they didn't want to stay at first.

"Not sayin' you made 'em up. Just applying it as a general term since they don't actually exist where I'm from. Can't fault somebody for somethin' that ain't real."

Though he got that quite a lot, actually.

Jedi in the Temple had learned long ago to step back when they saw the look that was now in Anakin's eyes. Clearly he was choosing to fault Murdock for it.

"So you put all of your general terms in air quotes, then? How do you get through a conversation without people wanting to chop your hands off?"

Okay. Something apparently is tweaked with this guy. And people called him crazy.

"Dude, rather rude don't ya think? I was just pointing out that spacecraft don't exist where I'm from and you're talkin' about choppin' my hands off. And if I sometimes do, what's the issue?"

Because, really. Attitude much?

"Because 'this'," Anakin said, using air quotes to scathing effect, "is frelling 'irritating.' And just because they 'ain't real' where you come from doesn't mean they need to be 'subjected' to this kind of 'treatment'. And you come from here now. I'd expected the wide-eyed astonishment about aliens, space travel, and gremlins from one of the new students. You've been here an entire summer. Get over it."

Anakin had just met the doppelganger of a much loathed future son-in-law. He was having a bad, bad day.

He turned on his heel and stomped to the other side of the room.

Murdock just frowned and went back to his coffee.

So what if he was still impressed by aliens, space travel and spaceships? At least now he knew they were real instead of being ragged on about how crazy he was all the time.

There went the good mood he'd been in. Thanks, pal.
