If I'm going to get into the Air Force Academy, or NASA's space program, I have to keep studying and keep my grades up. At least you can't do too much damage from here, just make things difficult and I can handle a little extra difficulty.

Anyway, what's this "Stargate" stuff that's on your mind? What's a Stargate?

Sounds you have your whole future planned. Just wait. Something will change and you'll uproot and everything goes out the window.

[dreamingofspace]

Of course, if I don't plan now then I'll never get a chance to stand on my own two feet. I'm not going to let anything ruin that.

[sleeplessteen]

Something will. No matter what you plan. Something or someone will get in your way.

That's a bit pessimistic. It's not healthy to think like that.

[sleeplessteen]

Seems inevitable around my step-father. Ass.

[dreamingofspace]

Can't go stay with your real dad or something?

[sleeplessteen]

Bit difficult since he's six feet under in a different country.

[dreamingofspace]

I'm sorry about that.

[sleeplessteen]

[Shrugs] Doesn't matter. [Okay so he blames himself for the most part so it's not the best subject.]

[dreamingofspace]

It does though. Losing a parent isn't easy, I should know.

[sleeplessteen]

Who'd you lose?

Carter?

[Slowly looking.]

... Yes?
