Still slightly vexed from the weekend, it was a strangely subdued Anemone that opened up the library.

For some reason, today's Mad Science class was set up to look like a bright shopping mall. The stores were closed, and the setting sun was visible through the glass skylight and doors. Professor Tomoe sipped on an expensive looking cappuccino while he waited for the students to arrive.

"Good afternoon students!" he said. "Today is our seventh class together, and since it falls in the middle of the semester, today is also your midterm. You are permitted to use anything that we have talked about in the first half of of your lessons to deal with today's assignments."

He grinned at them. "And what is today's assignment? As luck would have it, we've arrived in this mall just before it's invaded by zombies. Try to defeat one of them before it eats you. Good luck." He let out a cackle. "You'll need it."

"Well, it looks like most of you have survived Parents Weekend," Tim said, nursing a large cup of coffee. "Which is good. It'll prepare you for Mother-In-Law weekend, which is like Parents Weekend but with double the guilt, triple the backbiting, and lots more of 'you could have married a doctor!'". That last bit was done in a bad falsetto.

"Today is your midterm. Your assignment is to fix three projects. You can work in teams or individually. Have at," he said, waving with the coffee cup.

The usual snacks and drinks were laid out for the class, and Aziraphale gave everyone a little time to chatter before calling for their attention. He figured they had a lot to talk about, after all.

"Good to see you all survived the weekend," Aly said with a grin as the students filed into class.  "Today, we're going to talk about being a bodyguard.  This is probably the most obvious way to protect someone, and the one that comes up most often in popular culture.  Movies, tv shows, songs, all depict what's fairly often a pretty boring and routine job.  Except that you have to be on alert and more than on alert every moment of the day and ready to spring into action at any second."

She gave a quick handwavy lecture about the basics of bodyguarding.  It was fairly obvious from the way she talked that while most of the things she taught she'd dealt with them in her life, but this one she was even more clear about.  It was a topic close to her heart.

"So what I'm going to ask you to do over the next week is to try this out.  I've paired you up in groups of two, and I'd like you to meet up a few times between now and next class to try out the role of the bodyguard and the responsibilities of both the guard and the person who's being guarded.  Check out possible threats, shield your charge from their adoring public, keep in mind that anyone can be a threat at any time.  Once you have a feel for it, switch up the roles and let the other person try.  You'll be reporting back about what you learned next week, and there'll be an in class exercise that's going to assume you thought about this at least a little bit over the week.

"Okay, here are your pairs on the board.  Today, I'd like you to meet up with your partner and talk about when you will meet and different tactics you can use."


"If you really, really have a problem with your partner?  Too bad.  You can't always like who you're working with."

"Any other questions?  I'm definitely around."

[OOC:  Of course the homework can be handwavy if you like, but it would be cool if not too.  Please wait for the OCD is up!]
