Free Period for Teachers -- Monday, October 24th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Sarah sprawls across the couch, a thick notebook in her lap. She keeps looking down at it and staring hard as if she's trying to bore holes through the paper through force of will, then letting her head fall against the back of the couch and making a strange growling sound.

There's an Italian buffet for anyone who wants something to eat.

I've never been very susceptable to the Stern look. People have generall done better with the Threatening look or the I Will Fong You look.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

...Fong? [Ten looks a bit confused, then grins.] But what about the 'I Want To Drag You To The Haymow' look? Didn't you ever get that one?

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[Geoff raises an eyebrow, but grins back] Once or twice, I suppose.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Pish, I'm sure more than that. [He waves a hand at him.] Now that's a far better look than 'I'm Going To Hit You Upside The Head', don't you think?

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

It is indeed. Although Kate once threatened me with that one.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Probably because you were being infuriating. I get that one a lot. [disarming smile]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[Is disarmed Returns the smile] Probably I was. What do you do that's infuriating?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Apparently almost everything. [smirk]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[chuckles] Isn't that always the way.

[pauses, looking serious] Would it be an intrustion into your private affairs to tell you that I'm happy you and CJ seem to have...worked things through?

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[quietly] Not at all. [He blushes.] Thank you.

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. [Geoff smiles and stands silently for a moment, not certain what to say now that the conversation had turned serious, and to relationships at that.]

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Are you all right, mate?

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

Mostly, yes. I'm, uh, working through some things but...[shrugs and smiles] It's not a big deal.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

You know you can always come to me, right?

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[Geoff looks somewhat surprised at the invitation, but pleased.] Thank you, Ten. Although, I think it's slowly working itself out.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

[He nods.] Just keep that in mind.

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

I will. [He takes a deep breath makes a face, as if about to do something unpleasant.] I should be going, really. I promised I'd meet P- someone this afternoon, in town.

[He puts his hand on Ten's arm.] It was nice talking to you, Ten.

[ten-and-chips.livejournal.com]

Be well, Geoff. [He puts his hand over Geoff's and pats it.]

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

[Geoff nods. Giving the Doctor's arm a squeeze, he smiles and heads out the door.]
