Proverbs 2:10-11 ⇝ Video

[pontiac]

[Look who's finally on the network. He isn't the most social and became a hermit shortly after his arrival but now with the arrival of his daughter and so much more he's feeling more readily able to address the masses.]

I have a question. [Jimmy pauses and squares his shoulders.] My daughter just arrived, she's twelve, and in eighth grade. I don't see any reason why this place should distract from her education and honestly I'd rather it didn't? [He looks a little unsure as he ends the sentence with a question but continues anyway.] I was wondering if anyone experienced could continue her lessons one on one like an in house tutor. She's in Heimdall and I'm in Sigyn. Wherever you're comfortable.

It wouldn't be long. Maybe two hours a day. She's bright. [He presses his lips into a hard line and shuts his eyes. Still a little ticked off with his circumstances and now even more on edge because his parental instincts have him worrying over Claire, what happened there, and the knowledge that sprouted from their outing after she showed up.] Thanks.

A tutor?

[ Hm. ]

I'd love to help. But I guess it depends on what she was already learning.

[ Aqua's never had traditional schooling, so whatever eighth grade is equivalent to, she isn't sure. ]

[pontiac]

Math, English, History, Science... The normal curriculum. We could always replace P.E. with self defense given the setting.

[exhunter]

I'm no teacher, but I don't mind helping out. It can't be that tough to do.

Which subjects do you need her to learn?

video

[pontiac]

The normal curriculum. Math, English, History, Science... things of that nature. What experience do you have? [He's not crazy about leaving his daughter with a young man he's never met, to be honest, but he's open to giving him the benefit of the doubt.]

[whatagoodgirl]

[Have a Japanese girl just about your daughter's age, maybe a touch older.]

Twelve and in eighth grade...? Either she's really smart, or our grades work differently. I'm thirteen and only in grade seven.

[pontiac]

You're thirteen?

There's just some things that happened that make me think I should put her ahead of her class so she has more to focus on. You're right, it should be seven.

[histories]

If it's a tutor you're looking for, I believe I can be of service.

[pontiac]

You too? How?

[minifridge]

What about when you find somebody? I mean, you're not just gonna leave her with some person.

[She doesn't honestly expect him too, but give her a chance, she's going somewhere with this.]

video/private;

[pontiac]

Of course not. I'll be around. I just don't hover.

I'd be happy to help! My specialty is Danish history, literature, culture, anythin' t' do with Denmark and how cool it - haha, I - am. At least up to 1864 anyway. Do you and your daughter come before or after that year?

[And his expression suddenly becomes pensive and he considers the following.]...And hey, might also be worth askin' if ya come from a place that even has a place called Denmark in it. 'v met a few people who've never heard of me.

[pontiac]

Of you? I know the place Denmark but we're Americans, and it's 2008 where I'm from.

[Dean sounds a little like he might be grinding out this reply, mostly because Jimmy's been mostly hostile towards them since arriving, but he likes the guy and his sacrifices helped save the world; he deserves to be helped as much as they could afford to.]

I know you don't like us much, but Sam'd be a good choice. [Don't mind Dean speaking for his brother.] Plus you can trust him to keep her safe.

audio;

[pontiac]

As much as I appreciate that and know you're right, because of his ties to Lucifer and how susceptible Claire already is to all of that... I'd really like to find someone else.

[ofthursday]

[a w k w a r d but he might as well...]

I am capable of teaching her any of the natural sciences if necessary.

[Chemistry, physics, biology... He knows how it all works, no guessing or theorizing involved.]

[Video]

[pontiac]

I was going to ask you to overlook her lessons when I can't. Given that she's in your house.

But since you're the only one to offer science anyway, I'll allow it. I guess.

[video]

[mistresses]

I'd love to assist you. What subjects does she still need help with?

[video]

[pontiac]

Just electives, I think. If you think you can handle something like art, psychology, or language arts.

[video]

[doctors]

[ kanyeshrug. ] That sounds good to me. I'm a medical doctor with training from the year 2012 - if she needs help with any sciences or maths, I could try.

[video]

[pontiac]

2012? I'm from 2008.

Science would be a plus... any biology or things like that.

[video]

[inventing]

I may be able to be of some assistance. My knowledge may be outdated, admittedly-- I have found precious few individuals from my own time period-- but supplemented with books from the library...

[he doesn't have the faintest idea what eighth grade is, but he's used to teaching 12 year olds various things-- and he has no apprentices here. He could do with imparting knowledge on someone.]

[video]

[pontiac]

Do you have a subject you're more experienced in? I've gotten a lot of offers.

[Video]

[dragonspeak]

Your daughter's here, too?

[Sure, he'd seen some children, like Conan, around, but this is the first time he's hearing about Jimmy's family.]

[Video]

[pontiac]

She showed up a little while ago.

[oxbridgethegap]

A tutor, you said?

I'm Charles Xavier, a doctor of genetics. If your daughter had some interest in biology, I would be happy to assist you in furthering her education here.

video;

[pontiac]

That sounds great.

[smartwinchester]

[Wwwwwell, he already saw his response to Dean, so Sam will just not volunteer. :C

At least, not for that kind of stuff.]

The library has access to millions of subjects from all over the universe. If you wanted a neutral ground to have her lessons, that'd be the place. It's in the Odin district and anyone can go in and out of it.

[And Sam works there, so he'll totally keep an eye on them anyway.]

[Video]

[pontiac]

That's perfect. I've gotten so many responses I'm not really sure what to do and who to go with.

I'll have to over it with Claire.

[Not Actually Here]

[anguis]

[Lucifer is actually rather alarmed by this video. At first he thought it was Castiel, but as soon as "daughter" comes up, he discards the notion. He considers that this might be a case like Jacob, a body lookalike, or even like the other Lucifer, but when he sees the responses that Jimmy's getting, that possibility becomes more unlikely than likely.]

[It seems, somehow, that Castiel's vessel exists here separately from Castiel. This presents the worrisome possibility that Nick could also appear here separate of Lucifer with an unspecified amount of knowledge from their association with the variation in timeline and realities already known to be possible. All of this serves to broaden the scope of whatever is actually in power and control of this "Asgard", its occupants, and its various workings.]

[It's all very troubling.]

[affirmation]

Thank you, daddy. I ... can probably use all of that, too. But if others need to learn, too, can they join me?

[pontiac]

I don't see why not, sweetie.

[video]

[damnidjits]

[He grins briefly. He knew Claire's presence would be good for the man, even if coming here wasn't ideal.]

'Bout damn time you came outta your shell, Novak.

[video]

[pontiac]

I owe this to Claire. [Jimmy smiles back even if it's just a little unsure.]
