RP: Tyra & John
Who: Tyra & John
Where: Team center
When: 23 November 2011 (post-'work')
Summary: Tyra & John talk outside of training.

Tyra was walking through the team center to go home after her afternoon. She'd had fun hanging out with the Major Crime team and she'd found some books in the center that she'd read, wanting to study up as much as she could before Monday. Troy had said the lessons were interesting and that the subject material was composed of things she probably would need to study at some point back in Austin and so she'd decided to get a head start. He hadn't lied, some of the things in there were really interesting and she only wished she could actually be in the classes instead of hanging around for a week. It seemed like a waste of time when she was so keen to get started.

However, it was time to go and get some dinner and she rounded the corner to spot John further down the hall.

"Hey!" She caught up quickly and flashed him a grin. "How was your day? I was going to come into OSP and look around but I wasn't sure if I was allowed or not. Callen seems... Stricter than Derek."

"I was very lucky," he agreed with a grin. She couldn't know how lucky he'd really been. If he'd had anyone but Sarah Connor for a mother or Kyle Reese for a father, Derek Reese for an uncle. Charlie, Riley... So many people had given up their lives for John Connor. "Yeah, I think that's about right."

John nodded. "Yeah, it was. But, it was the first group and they had the time. They shortened it when it started to become necessary to have agents out there sooner. It's more independent book work now, homework and supplemental reading, I think. But, they also added extra training with the advanced training Sam does. So, it gets balanced out with more practical time, I think." Laughing, he rested his chin on his hand. "Lucky thing I can encrypt it and program it so all you need is that password, then, huh?" He winked at her before shaking his head. "Don't mention it. Happy to help. I remember what it was like coming in two weeks behind everyone and working my ass off to catch up."

Chuckling, he got up to start cleaning up his plate. his appetite and ability to polish off two sandwiches in a matter of bites was one way in which he was definitely a normal eighteen year old. "No worries. There's no expiration date on the offer to answer them. But, yeah, going offbase comes with restrictions. While you're training to certify, you can't go anywhere without someone who's already certified. Once you're certified, just make sure you've got someone with you as back-up. Group outings take more planning, making sure everyone's safe, that if anything happens we can all get out fast. Exit strategies, watching for tails, things like the checks I did when we got here." John huffed softly. "A casual night out with friends doesn't really exist here unless it's the theme nights at the club or just time spent in our apartments."
