Intergalactic Justice: A Crash Course, Tuesday First Period

Upon entering the Danger Shop, the students would find a severely disinterested-looking worm sulking somewhere in the corner.

"Oh, hellooo, students," Jim said, when they'd all managed to make their way in and he could manage some scrap of enthusiasm. Some. "I'm supposed to be teaching you. You want a lesson? Community service SUCKS. I mean, what's their problem?! You don't surgically implant fish heads in the middle of an invasion from La Planeta de la Agua (arriba!) or you're going to end up shot, it's not rocket science or anything."

He took a moment to consider it. "And in terms of fashion it's reeeeally gauche." Ew. Fishheads. "Unless you're a Giant Furbearing Trout. Oh!" He leapt up to his feet, "Teaching. Riiiight. So going by the radio I figure you'll all be wanting to tell me stuff about yourselves. Be a little quick about it or I'll miss the first few minutes of my show and then I'll be really CHEESED OFF."

He took a breath to compose himself. "If you look at the table in front of you, you'll find a couple of blasters. If we're going to be dealing with Intergalactic Justice, you're going to want to figure out how those work. They come in really handy, kind of like this--"

A target in the shape of a cow popped up out of nowhere.

"EAT DIRT, YOU BOVINE INSULT TO ALL THINGS NATURAL!" Bursting into a round of malicious laughter, he reduced the target to a smoking crisp in a flurry of blasts.

Then he put the blaster back. "Alright, now it's your turn, kids."

More cow targets popped up. Jim just threw himself back in his chair and tried to look bored.

And there was only one reaction to something like that: Turtle clapped her hands a little. "Yaaaay."

Okay, two: she paused, and then asked, "Will there be any sort of legal implications in this justice, sir, or will it mostly be of the adventuring, under the table type of justice? Just so you know, I'm quite fine with both, I'm just curious."

Turtle nodded; she figured that she would just have to trust that this Peter was a very good lawyer, especially if he represented an intergalactic worm of justice. She might ask Mister Jim for his number at some point, for pure networking purposes, but it was still the first day of class.

"That's good," she said. "As long as there's someone covering that end."
