[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

Today, the Danger Shop was set up like a fine restaurant, complete with small tables, moddable wait staff, and mood lighting. Standing in front of the scene and waiting for the students, Ronon was not smiling.

"As of right now, all of you are faced with a complicated and uncomfortable situation: a date you don't want to be on. I'm told this is a common problem for people on this planet. Four escape methods are listed in your handout, including Faking an Emergency, Slipping Away Unnoticed, Slipping Out the Window, and Getting Your Date to Leave. These methods assume that your date is some sort of trained assassin bent on your demise or that you're afraid of what your date would do in public if you walked out on them. Sounds like some dates McKay's been on." He smirked at the assembled teens, almost wishing Sheppard was there to share the barb.

"Go ahead and make up your own escape methods, but I hear the goal is to get out without anyone crying or drawing weapons." Ronon obviously didn't approve of this last part. Weapons should always be an option. "Good luck."

"We're doing a little arts and crafts today," Nathan said after the students had filed thanks to handwavey notice into the computer lab. He held up an example of what they were going to do. "Business cards. You go, you meet people, you want to give them your card. This is what represents you after the handshake is long gone. You want something that conveys who you are. If you're artistic, you want something creative. Night club operator? Something edgy. More traditional job?" Nathan gestured towards himself. "Elegant and classic.

"For information stick to the basics. Name, title, company, contact information." Nathan copies of his own card from the DA's office to show them. "Feel free to make up the details for now. You all have a program set up on the computers. Have a fun with it. Though remember: font choice is everything."
