I Didn't Get What I Want, I Got What I Need

Between tests, here...

I don't forget. I just don't find these things out until I've already done them!

So it's not my fault. It's the universe's.

And now I should put the laptop away before Moira comes back and kills me. Or insists upon giving me another CAT scan, which is just as bad...

And then YOU DO THEM AGAIN, NATHAN.

...I'm fine. Really.

I'll see you after your girlfriend's done tormenting you. Go behave.

Now, I never said I learned from my mistakes.

And she is. Tormenting me, I mean. Sticking all kinds of little blinking beeping things at me and cursing under her breath.

What DO you learn from? I'm flexible here, honest. Training does include the part about not dying/burning-out/imploding/having your brains run out your nose. I want to make sure we get that covered.

Good. I'm glad. I hope she keeps all the little sticky things in the freezer until she puts them on you.

Hank keeps some in liquid nitrogen. Or at least he keeps saying he does. :)

I respond real well to cold water. Just ask Moira.

And don't be giving her ideas.

I can see it now...

Scott: Paul, why does your fieldkit include a special nitrogen-chilled supersoaker?
Me: Oh, that's for training Nate.

...that'll go over REAL well.

I have not yet begun to give her ideas. Really. We haven't collaborated once. Which isn't to say that it might not happen if you don't behave.

Oh, ganging up on me? It always comes down to that in the end... Dom and GW have whole notebooks on 'ganging-up-on-Nate' tactics. With annotations.

Oh, really? I'll make sure she brings one with her next time.

I really wish I understood why people feel the need to 'manage' me.

I am going to resist the urge to beat you with this training video when you get here.

I'd say something about your ability to manage yourself sometimes, but tha'd be awfully forward and rude.

*pauses*

Who am I kidding? *grins*

We could just start on your rocking chair. Pick out the fabric for the seat, stuffing material and all. Any colors in particular you'd prefer?

I'd say very senile on that score. And something of a stupidhead about it at times too.

I dunno. I think Moira has all the best threats in the world when it comes to keeping him from doing something vastly stupid.

Blue. I like blue.

I think Jean-Paul might like blue as well. But that's just a guess on my part.
