Basic Weaponry; Tuesday, First Period [03/07].

[special_rabbit]

Anyone who'd talked to Amaya in the past week would probably not at all be surprised about this week's weapon of choice, and that a good deal of the practice dummies out in the training field had been replaced with classic bulls-eye targets. Because Amaya was definitely still on her bow buillshit.

"Welcome back, everyone," she greeted the class with her usual nod. "Today, we're going to be going over a weapon that's not really as much my wheelhouse as some of the others we've covered, but I'm a fair enough hand at it, and I've steadily been improving over the years, and I assure you, my coteacher here's expertise in this area more than makes up for it. What is this weapon, you may ask? Why, it just so happens, it's none other than bows!"

( Shot through the heart. )

"That just about covers the basics," Amaya grinned faintly. "If there's any questions, though, let's have 'em, and then we're going to get to work. First, before we get to the fun part, I'm going to teach you all how to actually string a bow, because a bow's not much good if you've gone and snapped a string or worn it down and can't replace it with a new one. Then it's off to Detective Diaz, where she'll go over nocking, aiming, and shooting at the targets we've got set up over there, and I'm sure, by the end of the class, if you're not an expert already, you will be!

"Or," she added, chuckling faintly, "at the very least, since we're in the Danger Shop, if you're not an expert by the end of class, at least you'll not have lost an eye."

Intro to Starship Maintenance- Tuesday

There was a single X-wing in the Danger Shop garage today, and it had clearly been through a rough time. It was covered in carbon scoring and had not insignificant damage to a wing.

"When your ships have things like shields and weapons systems, it means you're going to take damage at some point," Jaina began. "This X-wing has been in a battle, and probably a scary reentry and landing, considering the state of it. So today we're repairing the wing and the hull. I'll show you what needs to be done, and then you get to get this ship space worthy and non-scary again."

Topics in Jedi Philosophy, Tuesday

[unusual_sith]

"Welcome back to yet another week," Lana said, leaning against her desk. "This week, I'd like to investigate something that's controversial among the Jedi of my era - attachments. We've touched on it before, in regards to the line in the code about passion, but it's been the subject of much debate whether or not Jedi should be permitted families, marriages, children, and so forth.

"Now, when you consider that Force sensitivity does tend to run in families, you can understand that outright forbidding children is somewhat counterproductive to your order. Nevertheless, it's rather frowned upon to have and raise children as a Jedi. Similarly, marriages are rather strictly overseen to ensure they're in compliance with the Code. Why do you think that might be, and how would you go about it if you were on the Jedi Council?"

This should be fun. She would absolutely tape this and bring it back home.

Sexier Crime: the Show! [Tuesday, Fourth Period]

[good_for_six]

Isabela looked positively gleeful today. "Now, there's something you may not be aware of, with how carefully we've curated what we've shared with you." Careful curation. Sure, let's call it that. "Some movies about sexy crime...are bad."

"Downright trashy," Aphra added, sounding not at all solemn. "Which means that you should never be afraid to be creative, because no matter how bad you think it might be, there is an audience for it."

"Which is why you're going to come up with your own terrible sexy crime movie!" Isabela, no.

"Don't worry if your plot makes sense, or your twists impossible." Aphra, no. "You're going to make up a story and make it criminal and sexy!"

"And I'm happy to give you hints on either."

ISABELA, NO.
