Closed RP, Abby and Ford

Ford was in his office, flipping through his copy of The Guide looking for information to use in class.

Teaching - There was a time when a hitchhiker could make good money teaching Galactic Basic on remote planets; however, the profession was rendered obsolete by the babelfish. Should you find a teaching position keep the following in mind ( Read more... )

Abby got Ford's last owl, and set out to meet him. On the walk, she thought about the unique position she'd gotten herself into. She was going to be teaching magic-users about all the stuff she knew herself. This wasn't even really going to be work, it was going to be fun. Lost in her thoughts, she walked right past the door to Ford's office. It was only after turning down a dead-end hallway that she realized her mistake and backtracked, hoping desperately that he hadn't noticed.

"Hey, Ford." She grinned.

"Abby!" Ford greeted her happily. "Thanks for coming. Grab a seat." He gestured to an open chair, the only clear space in the room other than a fraction of the desk. The thrif tstore mish-mash of old muggle gadgets and junk that filled the classroom's storage closet inhabited most of the office as well. Some of it, he had to admit, he didn't even know what was and he was pretty sure that most muggles wouldn't recognize the items either. "How are you? Do want something to drink?"

Well, Ford was glad to see her. That's a good sign. She looked around at the piles of stuff. She could recognize gyroscopes, a microsocope, kaleidoscope, and even a bunch of things that didn't have the word scope like a compass, racecar, can opener, 80's era clunky old laptop, a decoder ring, and a bicycle. There were things she didn't even recognize, but that's all right.

She amde her way gingerly through the stacks to sit down in the offered chair, the grin never leaving her face. "I'm doing good, what about you? As far as a drink, I'll have what you're having."

"I'm alright. How about gin and tonics then? A solid muggle drink, something we can really wrap our minds around. Or something like that. Anyway, it seems appropriate."

He fiddled around at a minibar situated behind the desk. He hadn't installed the minibar, it had been there when he arrived. This fact, along with the office's rather intriguing mess made him suspect he would have got on quite well with the former muggle studies professor had they ever had occasion to meet. Ford produced two drinks, complete with lemon twists. For some reason he'd always thought the lemon was the most important part of an Earth gin and tonic.
