Kicking Ass, Teamwork Style (Wednesday, Period 2, Week 2)

[brat_inslayage]

Messages had been sent out to all the students to wear comfortable clothes for activity today, and by the way, that should be the dress standard for the rest of the session because duh. (Okay, the message hadn't actually said 'because duh.' Not in the final draft.)

When they arrived today, they'd find the Danger Shop set up as a military obstacle course. Hey, it was the same one Kennedy made the junior Slayers run whenever she got to supervise a training session, okay?

...no sign of Kennedy, though. Pinned to the low wall that made up the first obstacle on the course was a hastily scrawled note:

Sorry. Unexpected demon-related crisis at home. Your assignment: GET EVERYONE ALL THE WAY THROUGH THIS. Remember it's not a competition. Someone needs help with part of it, you help them. Teamwork, remember?

- Kennedy

Well then.

Summer Games of Harmony, Wednesday, period 1

[locointhecoco]

The class met in the gym today, where Pinkie waited behind a set of tables along one wall, covered in various art supplies, looking out over a long oval track marked out on the floor with colored tape and little plastic traffic cones. There were several dressing screens in the corner, behind which could be seen long racks of clothing.

"Hi everypony! Welcome back to Summer Games of Harmony! I hope you're all ready for some super fun, today! I know I am!

"Last week, I had you all choose a country to represent in the games! First up today, you're all going to make yourselves some flags! We've got markers and paints and glitters and everything! You can make your flag any size you want, just make sure you can make it fast, because today's game is. . . ." She yanked one of the racks out from behind the dressing screens. "Roller Derby races!"

That's right, those racks were covered in moddable brightly colored, skimpy skating costumes, along with skates, pads, and helmets in various sizes.

"So when I say 'go', you're all going to get to make your flag, get dressed, then skate one lap around the circle to cross the finish line! On your marks . . . get set . . . GO!"

Study Hall: Wednesday

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Study Hall was open today and yet again... bananas.

Which might explain why Jamie had an electric griddle in front of him frying up peanut butter and banana sandwiches.

Why there was a line of Jamie duplicates dressed up like Elvis might take a little more explanation.

Study hall was open. Be warned: You may get serenaded by an Elvis-impersonator.

Espionage & Infliltration, or, How to Play the Spy Game & Win (Weds, Period 4)

[dojima-hime.livejournal.com]

"Today, we're going to start with the very basics," Dojima said briskly. "Your cover identity."

"I was lucky in that I got to keep my name and my face, but there were many things I had to bury under my cover. If you'd known me as a student, you never would have realized that my favorite music genre is opera. There was not a single opera cd, mp3, program, nothing in my room at Fandom or in Tokyo. I never so much as hummed a stanza from Carmen under my breath while studying. I'm actually quite good at science, but I made sure to steer clear of those classes and complain about anything harder than Tink and Barney's class. And despite all the invasions and dangerous situations I found myself in, I never once broke cover and revealed my martial arts abilities."

"You live your cover identity, you breath it. It is you, or you end up dead in a gutter somewhere." Dojima wasn't trying to scare her students, but she needed them to understand how serious this was. "So today, I want you to craft an identity of your own. Something you think you could live as if you needed to swap names and drop off the grid for a bit."
