Exploring Fun Times With Friends! (In Dungeons), Friday

[magnusrushesin]

True to the name of the class, today the danger shop was made to look like a dungeon. An old fashioned, cobweb filled, torch lit dungeon with the requisite level of bullshit that Gary Gygax probably came up with while on drugs. You know, the sort that DM's used to use to punish their players for the funsies. Ye old days.

At the very start of the dungeon stood a bronze plated statue of a bird with a small note attached to it.

WELCOME TO THE DUNGEON
COME ON IN AND TRY TO STAY ALIVE.

Because the teachers had a fun sense of humor. Or something like that. Look, it wasn't like they could actually harm more than your dignity.

Construction 101; First Period, Friday [05/25].

Amaya would understand if the students might have been slightly less excited to discover shovels waiting for them next to their safety gear instead of the more exciting sledgehammers when they got to work site today, but at least they'd have a pretty good idea what they'd be doing today. She was excited about the shovels--probably too excited--but she didn't exactly expect them to be. That didn't prevent her from being far too chipper for early on a Friday on a construction site.

"Morning, builders!" she greeted them. "As you can see, all the debris from last week has long since been cleared, and I had someone take care of the old foundation of the building that was here so that we can put in a new one, because the foundation is a pretty important part of any building." And here she was having a small handful of kids putting in hers. Anyway! "You'll notice I've already got batter boards marking each corner of the building; that's our perimeter, and I've already marked the lines where we'll be digging our footings and how wide to make them; you'll be digging within those lines, making a trench. We're gonna dig about two feet deep, nice and flat lines and sides, we'll get it nice and compacted when we're done!

"So grab your gear, grab a shovel, and get digging! I've got water and coffee on the worktable, too, take a break when you need to and stay hydrated. Lemme know if there's questions or issues, but if you're ready, let's get to work!"

Attitude: Deal With It, Friday, Period 2

"Week two, an' people actually came back? I'm touched, yo."

You could tell how touched he was by the way he didn't actually look like he cared, particularly. Which didn't really mean much. This was Reno, after all.

"This week, we're gonna talk wardrobe. People say 'dress for the job you want,' and... I mean, ignorin' that some jobs go right ahead and dress you themselves, there's at least a bit of truth in that. T-shirts and jeans are fine for just bummin' around in. Hell, if your goal in life is to just be comfortable and do that bummin', that works out great, don't it? But if you're lookin' to impress, you gotta put a bit more effort into it than that, yo."

He glanced around the room. Okay, Rufus didn't need any help dressing to impress. But Rufus was the son of a guy who essentially owned the planet. So.

"So, today, I'm gonna get you to put together a look for yourself. Got the Danger Shop all rigged up to be a clothin' store with a pretty healthy variety to it, and you're all gonna go through the racks and start experimentin' with what look you wanna go with for whatever it is you want to end up doing goin' forward."

Suck it, Harvard. Reno could teach useful classes, too.
