TA lounge, Wednesday February 22

Cameron's got some chocolate cake with him. He puts it on the table and settles down in one of the chairs. Keeping his head down in the lounge sounds like a good thing right now.


((Shut up. I know it's not Thursday. *mutters*))

Sam, a bit grungy looking and smelling of explosives, sat down in one of the chairs with the intent of finishing her reading for U.S. Government.

"Hey, Cameron. Anything good?"

"Er, who did? I think that happened more than once," Sam replied. She glanced down at her book. "Cabinet members, ugh. Because it's important to have a bunch of people nodding at the president when he says something dumb."

"Seconded." She stretched her arms over her head. "What're you reading?"

Sam smiled, "Just don't say that around Elizabeth. Not that I disagree with you."

"And thank god for people like Liz--otherwise we'd have to do it." She turned a page, even though she hadn't really read anything. "How's your Wednesday going?"

"I meant to tell you, I was impressed with the way you handled yourself out there, Cam." She leaned forward. "Not everyone can do that."

"You made sure the way was clear and you took care of Molly when she needed it. Those are important qualities to have, especially in the Air Force." She lowered her voice, "and remember, some of us have training to do the hard work. You don't, yet."

"If you think a reference from Samantha Carter would help your application, Cameron," Sam grinned, "I'd be happy to write one."

"Worst career ever? No." She shook her head. "Though I will admit it had its moments."

"They absolutely do," Sam affirmed, although she wasn't always sure about that. "Especially some of the cool stuff you can fly these days--it's really amazing."

"Yeah, that's definitely a sweetie." She looked a bit wistful. "And not as far as we'd like it to."

Sam made a face and looked around for note-taking shrubs. "Unfortunately, the power source for the engine isn't completely stable. It's good for short hops, but not so much for longer distances--yet."

"Not yet. But we're they're working on it." She raised an eyebrow. "Why, you looking to become a cabbie?"
