Philosophy 201- Monday- 1st period

[fates_jaye]

Well, Jaye definitely looked less stressed than she had last week at the start of class. Gee, wonder why.

"So, while we're wondering what the hell is wrong with Matthew McConaughey's agent, let's also question Kate Hudson's. I mean, I get that they were trying to make her out to be America's Sweetheart and all because she had one good movie, and then they constantly stuck her in the same movie over and over- often starring Matthew McConaughey- and now no one expects anything of her. Which... started out as something that bugged me and now maybe just became my life model.

"Anyway, here's another terrible movie where all the characters suck and none of them really deserve another person, but what can you do."

Flight- Monday- 3rd period

The class was back in the Danger Shop today, which was set up to look a lot like the island on a normal day. But with the guy standing next to her that some people might recognize, that should probably be a sign that it wasn't a 100% normal class. The swoop bikes on display might have been another sign.

"Hey, guys," Jaina said. "Today's class isn't so much about flying, exactly, but we're all just going to have to deal with that. Today we're working with swoop bikes. And for this class, I'm going to toss this over to a guy who knows a little more about this subject than I do, Zayne Carrick."

"Hey, everyone," Zayne said. He was glad to have a couple days of leave so that he could actually be somewhere without being in uniform. "As you may know, Jaina and I are from the same galaxy but very different times. Back in my time, swoop racing is pretty much the biggest sport there is. And I've spent a large part of my life on Taris, where the majority of the swoops in the galaxy are made. So riding around on one of this is what my friends and I did all the time when we weren't studying or training."

Zayne continued, "If you're at all familiar with motorcycles, it's kind of like that, but much faster and it doesn't touch the ground. And if you're familiar with jets, it's also kind of like that, but much slower and without anything between you and the wind. So it's a lot of fun."

"So for today," Jaina said, "you guys are going to get on these and race around the island. From here around the outside of the island and back. Whoever wins... gets praise and adulation for the day."
