Freshman History 1

[Matrim]

Matrim put his hand on the Doctor's shoulder, "Thank you." Those were the only words he could muster, that is, until more just came spilling out, "It was good, to see him one last time you know? I wasn't there when..... when he died. So I guess just seeing his face, however young he was.... I got to say goodbye to my dad... That means more to me then anything else on this damned planet."

The hand on the shoulder instantly transformed into a fully fledged hug. No tears this time though, he wasn't able to conceal them anymore if he had. So he decided it was best to just let those emotions go. He released the hug and turned towards Solaris, "You know, I think it does me a lot of good to be around people who knew my dad. People like you and the vice. I didn't piece together that you were the same kid my father mentioned from his school, but now that I have, I kinda feel this familiarity around you."

Matrim turned and walked out of the class. The time was 9:54 on his watch.

"Right on time, Doc...."

He walked down the hall and back to his dorm for a nap with some of the extra time he had.

[Jeremiah Sykes]

Jeremy had remained silent the entire time, only slightly raising an eyebrow when the doctor said to get inside the TARDIS. How the hell was he supposed to accomplish that? Shrugging, he stepped forward, turned sideways, and crouched down, squeezing himself inside. He was a little surprise to find the place was huge. He wasn't exactly started or shaken, since he knew the doctor wouldn't have made the offer had they not been able to get inside.

As they took a trip into the apparent past, Jeremy kept his eyes on everyone and everything that was going on. While he had assumed this place would be extraordinarily boring, he was more than happy to find himself wronged. This could prove to be quite the interesting history semester. He thought of places he would like to go as they arrived back into the class. As he exited the TARDIS, he flashed a smile at the Doc.

"Hey, nice job with that, pretty cool piece of machinery. See ya tomorrow."

He turned toward the door, bending his head down as he exited. He headed to the food court, where a healthy snack awaited him.

[Corgan]

Corgan didn't ask any questions. He didn't feel he would need to. He simply sat back and watched everything that happened. He was glad they were able to visit the time he wanted to see. His mind was actually more focused on this amazing thing called the Tardis. He had never seen or heard of anything like it before.

He payed close attention to their other visits. Seeing Solaris alive was interesting, he would have to remember to talk wit the man at some point about the nature of his new existence. The other students seemed just as amazed as he was.

When the trip was over Corgan waited until the Doctor was available then approached him.
"That was a most interesting class Doctor, easily the most enjoyable I have had before. Thank you. I also wondered if I could have a chance to talk to you a little more about who you are. Just out of curiosity of course. Something about you makes me want to start questioning a lot of thing." He said.

[The Doctor]

The Doctor was stunned when one kid hugged him, he sorta patted him and say, "Alright then I'll definitely see you next class I s'pose..."

After that the big kid said his approvals and goodbye, "Alright then, take it easy, next time I want to hear where in past you'd want to go!"

Then Corgan approached him obviously curious, "Nothing more then a man trying to set things right is all. Thats really all there is to it."

He didn't favor students. If they wanted to see a certain time and place, they would see that certain time and space. If they couldn't think of anywhere interesting, then most likely they'd just get a lecture. An interesting lecture, but a lecture no the less.

"That's it then, scam off." The Doctor went back into his TARDIS alone, shutting the door behind him. It was completely sound proof at that point, completely alone again.

"Bunch of easily entertained people.... show them cheap magic tricks and they'll come back for more. They are impressed? I don't want to impress them. Only one of those kids was asking the right questions.... well, one of them piggy backed."

The Doctor walked over to the control panel, setting it to go back to his suite where he would lock himself in nice and tight and take a nap on his couch. A proper couch, "They should be bloody scared, knowing that this technology exists. They should be frightened that I just let kids like them go back in time."

The Doctor had another thought. "I wonder if anybody is ever going to ask about the future. Well, that's another story in itself...."

The Doctor fell asleep on the couch, he didn't really sleep much, but he wanted to since he wasn't completely busy like he normally got.
