How to Blow Things Up: Week 7, Period 5

Aly was waiting in the Danger Shop for the class to meet though she planned on ending up being outside by the end of the session.  She waited for them, bouncing from foot to foot impatiently.  Finally once everyone arrived, she began. 

"So today we have two projects.  The first is the one I gave you at the beginning of the term which was to design a plan to blow up the school.  If you've handwavily, I assume done so, we have a set up in the Danger Shop where you can place your charges and see how the plan holds up."

"Second thing is we're going to head outside to just in the Preserve and fire off some cannon."  Aly grinned.  "Which, okay, are basically outmoded now and entirely effective as modern weapons for this world, let alone some of the civilisations some of you come from, but they're a lot of fun, they're tricky, and they're temperamental.   So it should be an interesting last exercise." 

She went through a quick but detailed lecture on how to load and fire a cannon using a Danger Shop mock-up to demonstrate on. 

Once the students had tried out their explosion plans and checked out the simulated cannon, Aly led them outside for practice on the real thing. 

"And one last thing to you all," she said with a grin after the cannons had been fired many, many times and all the shells used up.  "I've definitely enjoyed having you all in my class.  I hope you learned something and had fun, and I hope to see you in future classes I teach or in my office if you ever decide to visit."

[OOC:  Thank you for being a great class, please wait for the OCD is up!]

Reno wasn't one to skimp, but he was also perhaps the first one to concede that explosives were his partner's specialty, back home. Not his own.

So he'd gone ahead and given Rude a handwavey call the other night in preparation of this final.

Rude, being as helpful as usual, had just suggested Reno use 'lots.' Thanks, Rude.

There went the island. Oops.
