Adventuring Survival Tactics, Period 4, A Classroom, 4/12/07
The Doctor didn't have desks in the classroom today.
He had little swatches of carpet. About 18 inches by two feet, rectangular. In variousmoddable styles and colors. He gestured as for the students to sit on these bits of carpet. After the opening bell rang, he smiled.
"This is Adventuring Survival Tactics," the Doctor said. "And the first adventuring sruvival tactic you need you learn is that those carpets EAT PEOPLE!"
He made spooky fingers.
"Okay, maybe they don't," the Doctor said. "But they could. One some strange planet. Now something else to keep in mind is what you are, in fact, capable of. So that's today. It's a getting to know yourself, and each other, exercise. You'll tell us all your name, what you think your greatest strength is, what you think your greatest weakness is, and the weirdest fact you can think to share about yourself."
He brushed off his jacket. "I'll begin. My name is The Doctor. My greatest strength is, of course, being as fantastic as I am. My greatest weakness is the very rare ocassion when I am overconfident. The strangest thing about me is that I've suffered eight circumstances that would normally have been fatal, but I live on." He nodded. "Your turn."
After everyone shared, he smiled and clapped his hands together. "Fantastic. Now then, you're welcome to talk with your fellow students about the following situation for the rest of the hour. No homework for the next week, because I'm nice like that. Now, discussion topic. What would you carry in your pockets if you knew you were going out into a dangerous place. No backpack, no. Pockets only. What're you bringing? Discuss."
He was a bit smug at that. He knew that no one else had dimensionally transcendental pockets.

Re: Getting to Know You!
River made a strange noise and attempted to hide under her carpet, which wasn't entirely successful. "Good at dancing," she mumbled. "Have a fiddle and a tentacled monster."
