fandomhigh | How to Be the Best at What You Do

When the students had gathered in the Danger Shop, they saw a short, hairy man wearing a flannel shirt, jeans, and a cowboy hat leaning against the wall. He stood perfectly still and never looked up until everyone was settled. His nose did twitch repeatedly, though, as if he was smelling the room. Logan realized that may have been somewhat unsettling, but he was okay with that. He did it in part just so they would be unsettled. When he was finally ready, Logan spoke up and got right to the point.

"Okay, bubs, here's how this class is gonna be. My name's Logan. It's not a last name, so don't call me 'Mister Logan' or 'Professor Logan' or anything like that. If you want to show me respect, do it by getting something out of this workshop. If you really wanna call me something besides Logan, go with 'Wolverine.' Anything else and you're gonna regret it."

"Now, I'm the best there is at what I do and what I do isn't pretty. It usually leaves me with a ripped uniform and blood all over the place. Don't worry," Logan said, taking a slight detour from his point. "It's the other guy's blood and he had it comin'. Anyway, everyone's better than everyone else at something, whether they know it or not. Art, hockey, drinkin', piano... You have something. What you're gonna do for me is figure out what that thing is and then you're gonna let me help make sure you're the best at it. We're gonna focus on the building blocks of your skills, and make sure you have a good foundation for whatever it is you're gonna be doing. If you take it seriously no matter how strange the lessons sound, you're gonna come out of this workshop with some personal improvement. If you don't, you're still going to take something away from this class. That thing is probably gonna be that I don't like you."

"Okay, enough of me talkin'. Break up into two groups, people who can deal with being bruised and people who can't. These groups will be important later on. Introduce yourselves, then figure out what it is you're the best at. Anyone who can't tell me what they're the best at by the end of the period is going to get something assigned to them for the rest of the week. Trust me, you don't want that to happen, so you'd better be introspective, bubs."

"Oh, and if you need anything but don't want to bother me, Z's the TA. She's better than all of you at being my TA. She might have something else. I don't know yet. We'll see."

[OOC: Around for a couple hours now, then SP on Thursday until about 8 PM Eastern. I'll do my best to answer any overnight pings in the morning, but we'll see how that goes.]

Introduce yourselves, talk, and figure out what you're better at doing than anyone else.

Introduce yourselves, talk, and figure out what you're better at doing than anyone else. Besides crying to your mom if somebody punches you.

Either you've got something to say or you need Logan to tell you what you're gonna be the best at for the next couple days. You're not gonna like it.

Just FYI, Logan isn't likely to be bruising his students. Well, maybe one week. But that's it. Unless they're asking for it.
