[challenge] Backstory Challenge

So it's JUST slow enough for me to put this up. It'll be the first of my (hopefully) monthly 24-hour challenges. If I can recall to do this on a monthly basis it'll be (idealy) on the first or within the first week of the month.
So this month's challenge is going to be backstory. Pick a character- whatever character you know (or think) I'm familiar with and I'll write a short drabble depicting their past however I see it. Because I probably won't be able to get to these as quickly as my previous challenges, you're free to pick three characters at a time. After I've finished all three of your challenges, you may pick another three. If someone else has picked a character you wanted to see a story of, you can still ask for them and I'll just do a different scene.
CHALLENGE IS NOW CLOSED BECAUSE GOOD GOD I HAVE SO MANY PROMPTS I SHOULD'VE THOUGHT THIS THROUGH MORE^^;;

"I'll bet." He glared. "You're on office hours for the next stellar cycle."
"What? Aw, c'mon!"
"Don't give me that! Kup, if you don't learn to think you'll never get to be half my age."
"Who'd wanna be a decrepit old junker..." he muttered just loud enough.
"Two stellar cycles."
"What?"

And then he gleefully used that to assign more troublesome young whippersnappers detention.. XD
