So, just out of curiosity... has anyone looked into taking classes around here? And if you have, what's it been like?

I mean, back home, my parents were insisting I go to college, so... even if I'm not sure I want to bother, I figure I should keep the option open here too.

[He hesitates a moment before adding:]

How do you even figure out if going is right for you? Especially if you have other stuff you really need to focus on too...

[Damn, he missed his chance to not be treated like he's crazy for it...]

Oh, wow. I didn't know I was talking to an actual professor. You teach time travel?

Have you time traveled before? I mean, I'm not doubting you. I knew someone who sort of came from the future... I'm just curious.

But I'd totally love to check out your class.

[axefight]

Theories of Time Travel, officially.

Oh, I've got some first-hand experience. You could say it's a speciality of mine.

[ 'massive understatement' doesn't come through as clearly in text, but. ]

Wednesday @ 2:30 PM, do not be late.

[noassgardian]

I totally won't be. This sounds fascinating.

[And you know, that 'The Doctor' thing kind of piques his interest... not that he's going to go say that one outloud]

Oh-- what's your name?

[axefight]

The Doctor.

[ ...yep. ]

[noassgardian]

Oh, well... I guess I should've gone by the user name, huh?

[Okay, well. This is cool.]

[axefight]

[ he was expecting the typical 'er, that's not a name' - how refreshing.
]

Possibly that's not a good rule of thumb.

Unless your name is really Actual Wizard 666.

[noassgardian]

Good point. No, it's Billy Kaplan. But I mean, I am an actual wizard... sort of counts, right?

[Actually, it's because he's a giant nerd who's obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Gandalf, but he doesn't have to say that much...]

[axefight]

Alright, Actual Wizard Billy Kaplan. Bring your wand as well.

...The 666th actual wizard, or a big fan of the beast?

Or is it ironic, everything's ironic now.

[ not actually serious about the wand, either. ]

[noassgardian]

Oh, don't worry, there won't be any wand waving. I can use my words just fine.

Um, is 'dumb teenage edginess' an option? Because it stuck from back home.
