They were once again back in the apartment this week, but the whiteboard had been replaced with an electronic display, and there were three laptops on the coffee table.

"Target. Plans. Fallbacks for if the plan fails," Oz listed off. "By now you should have a pretty good idea of all these things, especially if you want to succeed, but you all have to be willing to 'kill your darlings'. No matter how attached to an element of a plan, if you can't justify it, then you need to get rid of it." Of course, Oz was able to justify pretty much any single aspect of one of his plans, no matter how seemingly ridiculous, he had mad skills that way.

"So for your midterm you will all take turns displaying the plans you have no doubt been developing to the rest of the class, who will then rip any flaws in them to shreds and hopefully by the end of class you will have melded your separate plans into one epic, unbeatable plan. I'll give you say, ten minutes to get ready."

Library [Saturday 10/6]

Cassidy was in the library bright and early looking through books on Africa.

Not even the remnants of a very bad headache could quell her excitement about the adventure of the upcoming school trip.

As she went through each book, she made notations in the notebook that was beside her.

Look, she had shelved all of the other books and done her usual work and now she was preparing herself for the trip to a completely different world!
