wrongkindofsith: (At least one of us has a clue)

The first thing the class would have noticed when they entered the tavern was that it was very, very loud. Even more so than usual. This was because, Cara, relieved that the island had not pulled any of tricks over the weekend, and in a decision she'd soon come to regret had agreed to let Jaskier have a little music, as a treat.

Which, of course, meant a concert! A very loud, very raucous concert. He gave Cara a thumbs up, keeping the NPC crowd singing along. Programming your perfect audience was such fun, you know.

"The thing about fighting in the real world as opposed to training and sparring is that other people tend not to respect your need for focus and lack of distractions," Cara said, not as dryly as she'd hoped given she had to raise her voice to be heard.

At the back of that crowd of concert goers, two of the programmed people bumped into each other and started pushing one another in a clear beginning of a fight. But oh, the concert went on.

Cara didn't bat an eyelid as the pushing turned into shoving. "Consider it a test of your situational awareness," she said, as the test started drifting towards them. "And how well you accomplish tasks with a distraction."

Which meant that little tussle was spilling over into more of the crowd and toward the students now. So. Have fun, kiiiiids.

"As I'm sure most of you are aware by now," Ignis started class with a faint grin, rather hoping that this statement was very true, although he wouldn't (unfortunately) be surprised if there were a few exceptions, "next week is your spring break and, coinciding with this break, is the big school trip. A time to get to explore new places and share exciting experiences with your friends and peers. But, of course, a holiday of this nature, especially one of this length, cannot all be fun and games, or, at the very least, your trip will be greatly improved if you are ready and properly prepared to embark on such a journey.

"Which is why today, we'll be talking about preparing for an extended vacation, with a focus especially on what to pack so you are prepared for anything that comes your way. What I have for you today is a rather extensive check list for what one might need to consider to bring with them on a trip such as this. I'd like us to go over some of the finer details together, and hopefully, you can use this to prepare yourself for our departure in a few days, and we'll have a discussion. Which points on the list do you feel are particularly important? Which do you think could be ignored entirely? Is there anything missing on the list that you feel would be an important addition? After all, we all have individual needs that may not be covered by a broad and generic list such as this. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the matter.

"Also included is a considerable list of tips for traveling internationally, one that has less to do with the technical aspects of it that the school will have quite underway, and more to do with experiencing the culture and the world around you. I'd like you to look over that, as well, and offer your thoughts or ask any question regarding the tips therein. Do you think they'll be helpful? What would those of you who are more traveled recommend to help get the most out of our experience?"

He gave them a soft smile.

"I'm sure most of you already have your heads far overseas in anticipation, anyway, so we might as well use this class to talk aobut it and hopefully have an even better experience because of it."

Perhaps the timing would have been better if they'd have done this last Friday before the Big Game, but it was hard to not feel a little inspired by the Puppy Bowl over the weekend. It felt almost as if there was no choice but to bring that into the PE class that week.

And so there they were, both Gladio and Dwight standing on a smaller version of a regular football field. Both were dressed in classic, albeit a little ridiculous-looking, referrer shirts. With black caps on their heads and matching pants, they were looking every bit the part of the official referee team... down to the shiny silver whistles that hung around their necks. And because he totally had to, Gladio gave the whistle a blow, the shrill note, getting everyone's attention.

"So," Gladio started, "in light of last weekend being all about some big football game and wanting to go a little light on you guys right before the big school trip, we thought we can get in on a friendly little game of the flag variety. Which means no tackle."

Why did he feel the need to look at Troy in particular with that specification?

"Right" Dwight continued. "No tackling involved. Just grab an opposing player's flag off their belt and they are out."

"No porting, either," Gladio added, and, look at that, was that another specific student he was giving a firm look at? Hmm. Imagine that. "Let's try to keep everyone on the same playing field. We're going to break it up into two teams: Yellow's Kurt and Jo with me, Green'll be Troy and Guillermo with Dwight here."

"This is our pre-trip class so the name of the game is having fun alright? Ok, so let's start with a basic rundown of the rules and how this will play out, and then you all can come to get your colors and we will get started," Dwight said, giving the kids a thumbs up and saving them a whistle- for now.

Anakin swept into the auditorium with an armful of pillows. "Today we'll be working in pairs," he explained. "Each of you will pick a side of the pillow to hold and then I will give you a prompt about it, which you will act out."

That should be normal, right?

Jo was really looking forward to the upcoming school trip and so she decided to check out some books about Africa and Kenya and Zanzibar to read in between her normal library duties. At least the library was behaving this week so Jo didn’t have too many issues to deal with and she could reshelve the books she needed to put back and be able to stay at the front desk and read those books she had picked out.

She had never been to Africa before and was trying to imagine what activities she’d be able to do there and she was definitely going to have a to to tell her friend Deirdre the next time she wrote to her.
