Phys Ed: Week 1, Period 2 (Fri. 9/5)

When students arrived, they would find the Danger Shop was set up like a traditional gymnasium, complete with a changing rooms and really high ceilings.

Most of the gym floor was covered in thick, blue mats, with the enormous, body sinking type mats stacked underneath three ropes that dangled from the ceiling. Next to these ropes stood a giant of a man who also happened to be the gym teacher.

"My name's Ronon Dex. You'll call me Sir." Ronon smiled as he looked around at his students, noting familiar faces and cataloging new ones. "Okay, first class gets the intro thing, but only after you introduce yourself to the rope." He gestured the thumb of one fist toward the three ropes in question, which students would note differed only in how many knots were tied in them and how high up on the rope lay a wide red line. "Climb to the red line and slide back down." Ronon grabbed hold of the rope with his large hands and swung himself quickly up to the top moving hand over hand until he touched the red line. Sliding most of the way down quickly, Ronon leaped back to the ground and wiped his hands on his leather pants.

"Easy enough, but first I'm told you need a uniform. You've got five minutes." Ronon crossed his arms, expecting them to move, and fast.

"My name is Sokka," he said, preening a bit. "My favorite sport is... uh. Football. And.... You know what? I don't think I've mentioned all week that I'm a crack shot with a boomerang. Like, seriously awesome."

"Not a sport; it's a weapon," Sokka pouted. "You throw it and hit things with it, and if you miss, it's perfectly aerodynamically shaped so that it arcs through the air and comes back to you. If you're really good" -- and here Sokka's tone of voice made it clear that he was, in fact, really good -- "you can get it to come back to you even AFTER it's hit something. It's just a matter of the angle of the ricochet -- it's all in the wrist."
