*watches quietly*

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Are you curious?

[pezisgod.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

What do you want to know?

[pezisgod.livejournal.com]

Everything.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid you have to be more specific. I could tell you about the bones, if that's what you mean.

[pezisgod.livejournal.com]

Tell me about the bones.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Well, to begin with, there are twenty two bones in the skull. Eight cranial bones and fourteen facial bones.

*nods moving in to look*

[cosmicbalance.livejournal.com]

Have you been home at all?

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Have you?

[cosmicbalance.livejournal.com]

...Yes. For five minutes to change.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

You're lying.

[cosmicbalance.livejournal.com]

I am not lying.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Okay, fine. You're not lying.

[cosmicbalance.livejournal.com]

Now answer the question, Bones.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

What question is that?

[virgin-queen-e.livejournal.com]

May I inquire as to what you are doing?

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

I'm rebuilding a skeleton.

[virgin-queen-e.livejournal.com]

Why?

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Because it's part of my job, and I was asked to do it.

[virgin-queen-e.livejournal.com]

What a strange position for a woman to hold.

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

Not particularly, no.

[virgin-queen-e.livejournal.com]

No?

[bonesquint.livejournal.com]

No. Granted, male to female ratio in the field favors males, but it's not uncommon to see a female in the position.
