Spying: Week 5, Period 1

The Danger Shop was mostly dark when the students arrived.  Aly was waiting at the consoles, ready to launch the sequences as soon as everyone was present.

"Morning, everyone," she said with a grin.  "Today we're going to talk about something that hasn't come up before in this class.  And that would be the physicality of spying.  This is something you see in spy movies a lot - especially those of the James Bund and Deathe Subservience variety - and while it's usually greatly overdone in that type of movie, it is a necessary bit to consider.  So."  She flipped the buttons to set up the programs.  "We're going to play with two things today that require not just controlled movement, but also your brain to work and plan ahead how to get through these things.  First up, there's a laser maze.   Then next, we have a rock climbing wall.  Which I totally admit that I've never run into a rock climbing wall while spying, but there have been plenty of times when I've crawled out on a window ledge or had to carefully slip across a roof and the same balance and strength is needed."

She gestured to the two areas.  "Hopefully you all got my handwavy note about wearing clothes you can move in, so go ahead and go to.  I'm around if you have any questions."

[OOC: I'm sorry for the meh class.  My brain, it is too hot to work.  :D  Please wait for the OOC is up]

Annette didn't take notes but she paid attention to Aly while she was talking to the class.

Gavin was, once again, wearing long sleeves even in the heat. Good thing he was used to heat. Being glared at...not so much. But still, long sleeves.

Wearing black spandex pants and a black spandex t-shirt, Annette started to work her way through the maze. She was thankful that she thought to wear her hair pulled back in a sleek ponytail at the nape of her neck.

Dib had his ninja clothing on. It was an older suit, but comfortable enough. He lept over and around the lazers with excellent accuracy.

Until the tip of his cowlick brushed clean through a beam. The alarm was loud enough to startle him, and he fell through three more lazers. He headed back to the beginning. He was out of practice.

Zuko thought the whole beams thing was kind of stupid, but apparently he was in the mood to humour Aly. It took him a bit to get used to the concept, but once he did he moved smoothly around the beams.

Rikku had her mutiny outfit on. Partly because there wasn't much material to possibly snag on lasers, and possibly because she had a feeling Umbridge would disapprove.

This kinda thing was old-school. She smoked the maze and did a little "booya!" victory dance.

Spying class rocked.

Ronan carefully made his way through the laser maze, but got stopped three times when his loose clothing snagged on a laser. In the exact same spot. Finally, he got the brilliant idea to talk the cloth into staying close to his skin, and he was able to make it through unscathed.

Faile had tied her hair back, but really didn't have many choices when it came to her clothing. She folded the legs of her jeans in and tucked them into her boots which was the best she could do. Her t-shirt was tight enough that she didn't think it would cause a problem.

It took her a few tries, but Faile eventually got through.

Eve was wearing tight jeans and a tight shirt -- purely for the maze, of coures.

She skittered through the maze easily, breaking into her own victory dance once through.

Re: [Spying 8/8] Rock Climbing!

Annette started to traverse across instead of going high. She still had this fear of heights. Would be nice if she could get over it though.

Dib quickly climbed to the top and hung out. His hands started to get tired from the small handholds (and the fact that he usually used suction handles for climbing walls), but he stayed there as long as he could, building stamina.

Rock climbing was actually a bit easier than climbing walls and Zuko managed to work his way to the top.

Rikku wiped her palms off on her legs and got climbing.

Faile tried traversing a few feet off the ground until she became more comfortable with the wall. Only then did she try climbing straight up. She did not make it to the top though.

Kabuto wasn't a showoff. Really, he wasn't. He just didn't think ropes or harnesses were necessary.

Apparently, he didn't think climbing was overly necessary either. Shrugging, he focused his chakra and walked right up the wall.

Eve had done rock climbing before, but never sans harness and rope, and not in a long while. So she passed the time moving back and forth across the wall, having entirely too much fun.

Zuko waited until the end of class before he approached Aly. "I still have something," he said quietly.

Rikku walked up to Aly after class, looking around a little to see if any squirrels were nearby. "Hey! Can I, uh, chat with you for a second?"
