Revolutions: Week 9 Period 5

Aly was perched on top of her desk again as she watched the students come into the classroom.

"I hope you didn't miss me too much last week though it sounds like Bridge was an excellent substitute."  She grinned at Bridge.  "I'm sorry to say I don't have pie for you all.  Hopefully you won't hold it against me."

"Today we're going to switch things up a bit.  This whole semester we've focused on what it's like from the revolutionaries' standpoint. But I spent the past week in my country looking at things from a different angle - from that of the reigning government."

"So today, in small groups or pairs, I'd like you to react to a scenario as you would if you were the government of a country.  Go in with all your guns blazing, try to talk to the dissidents, infiltrate them, try to capture them and ship them off into exile, it's up to you.  Once you decide a plan of attack, I'm going to tell you how the revolutionaries react to your plan and you can respond once more."

"I'm sorry to tell all you strictly democratic souls, but today, you're all representatives of a monarchy.  Your intelligence service has brought information to you of a lost 'true heir' to the throne being spoken about in the streets.  A coalition of mainly merchants - your middle class - has started to form around this supposed heir, and the people of the streets seem to be turning towards that banner."

She grinned.  "You all have quite good instincts from the stirring things up side, let's see how you do when your objective is order in your country.  Any questions?"

Isabel shrugged and shot Parker a wain smile.

Parker shook her head, and then passed Isabel a note. Xander's coming to the spa with us, if that's okay? Think of the amusement value.

That made her smile. Cool. Does that mean he really has a harem?

Parker grinned.

If he does, he has to buy us really cool jewelry. And possibly chocolates. Especially if anyone washes his back.

Isabel chuckled. I wouldn't mind. He's pretty!

Parker nodded, internally gleeful at the lift in Isabel's mood, and wrote back: Anyone else? Sam, you said. More?

Aeryn said she'd come and hang out in the pool. But no treatments.

Cool. Maybe she'll like the jacuzzi, too. Should I invite Jack?

Sure but we have to keep him away from Sven. He has enough to handle with his three thingies.

Parker smirked.

I'll hold off on inviting River along, then. I do wonder when Jack sleeps, though....

Isabel snickered. One of life's mysteries.

She thought about River and what she could do and added another line, frowning as she wrote it, knowing Parker was going to have questions. That might be good. I don't want to leave her out. But I've had enough people in my head recently. I can't deal with anymore right now.

Parker read that, and nodded to Isabel. Then wrote:

We're going to talk about that. Soon.

She nodded at Parker, sinking back down in her chair.
