Rangering!, Friday, Period Five [ 05/15 ].

Here it was! It was Friday! Fifth Period! Time for Rangering! Minsc was very excited to be starting up his new class, although he had yet to compile together a syllabus. It seemed like it didn't really matter that much; rangers really had no need for a syllabus and, really, he rarely stuck to it anyway. Next week! he promised himself. Next week he would!

But, for now, class! He had his students meet in the preserve, in a small clearing surrounded by trees, and stood grinning at them eagerly, a hamster in one hand and his broad sword in the other.



"Good afternoon!" he greeted them, brusquely, brightly, in an accent that sounded fake-Scandavian (?), fake-Russian (?), or...something. "Welcome to Rangering! I am your teacher, Minsc, and this is my giant miniature space hamster Boo! Hopefully, you are here because you are wanting to learn the ways of a ranger, such as myself! If not, then...stick around, and learn anyway! It never hurts to learn more about buttkicking! A ranger is a warrior of great buttkicking magnitude which specializations in weapons training and an accute sense of nature and animals! So we will be doing much of that!"

"But, for today, let us get to know our fellow brethren and sisteren in buttkicking! I know some of you, but certainly not all of you, and all of you might no know each other! So let us introduce ourselves! I would like your name, where you are from, what weapons experience you have and also why you are interested in rangering, if you please! And, also, you should all say hullo to the very...err....enthusiastic Prince Edward! He is one of my TAs this semester! I am scouting for a second, as well, so look sharp! And then...."

The grin grew even wider and, with a sudden, great, powerful yell, Minsc drove his sword straight down into the ground with seemingly so much force that, suddenly, things dropped from the trees. They were practise dummies, hanging on strings, limply filled with straw and sawdust, with very evil looking faces drawn on them. You could tell they were evil, because they had great big, downward pointing menacing eyebrows and little evil-like beards.

"Ah, but, in rangering, the sword is often stronger than the word! I have, available for you right over there, a variety of weapons from my own personal aresenal. When we are done with introductions, pick up your favourite, and let's see what you've got. Have at these uncouth villians of badness, and show off your skills, so that I may have a better idea of what I am working with! And if you dispose of your enemy quickly, I will be very impressed, and there is more there that came from. Ah-ha! Let us now start! I am getting very excited to be smashing and slashing and fighting now!"

Tahiri was grinning in amusement.

Also, she didn't boggle at all at the hamster. Look, this was a girl whose first Jedi Master had basically been a cross between a cat and a rabbit. Like she thought a hamster was that weird?

Ben was blinking rather rapidly. Was everything this crucial?

Eric... stared. And stared. He had no idea how he had ended up in this class, but clearly he was going to learn about rangering. ... Whatever that was.

Éowyn tried to cover her mouth to hide her giggling. This sounded like it would be a very fun class indeed.

Whoa. This guy's enthusiasm was seriously contagious, because by the time he was finished, Chie felt as pumped as ever to get things started. Oh yeah, this class was deeeefinitely gonna be a good one.
