Office Hours (Open to all)

[firstbornrichards]

When: Friday afternoon
Where: X-Mansion, Franklin's office
What: Franklin has open office hours.

Franklin Richards had taken to teaching like a duck had taken to water. He'd shown up with half of his planning for the year finished already, though as a famous general had once said, "no plan survives contact with the enemy". He'd had to do a lot of adapting on the fly, but it was good. It kept him busy and made him feel useful as something other than some sort of ridiculous fount of all power.

He'd adopted an open-door policy pretty early, because the truth was, sometimes he liked being interrupted from marking and other paperwork. If anyone had any questions or concerns, he was there to help them out. If someone wanted to drop him off some coffee, well, that was extremely welcome.

Franklin liked coffee, a lot. People who gave him coffee tended to get their requests granted much more quickly.

The door was open. Who would come in next?

And would they have coffee?

"Sounds pretty cool. I love walking sticks." Franklin smiled slightly. "Probably."

"Gliding must be pretty fun. And if it's true about the feathers, it won't be long before you're taking full flight. Can't be too far in coming." Franklin was kind of surprised she didn't have them already, actually.

"Easy levels in the Danger Room are nothing to sneeze at. They like to run teacher sessions every now and again, and they're brutal. Are you taking self-defence with Logan next semester?"

"They're one of my favorites, I love the bugs that camouflage well because it's trickier to find them. Though I haven't brought any inside, I don't think Rose wants a zoo in our room."

"It is! Higher heights are a little scary at first, but still fun. I'd think it would be like parachuting only I have a little more control, if I want to land sooner just fold in and dive."

She nods. "I've been thinking about it. It's better than the class I wanted to take at my old school. My parents wouldn't let me take that one because they said it was too dangerous." Though really she can't see how. "I was going to wait a few more days before finalizing next semester's classes."

"Uh huh. So you're gonna sign up for all of Mr. Richard's history classes, right? Well, all the ones you can anyway. And while you're at it, you should come along in a week or so for when we go out to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty."

Yes, Franklin was shamelessly pitching his little extracurricular fieldtrip. Whatever, it would be fun. He'd make it fun.

She giggled. "Already signed up for two of them. And for the field trip. I've only been to the shelter in New York and that was to help out. I've yet to go see the landmarks."

Hey fun's good, and Bobbi enjoys lessons that aren't just reciting from the text books. "It really should be fun though."
