Rangering!, Friday, Period Five [ 05/22 ].

"Good afternoon, class!" Minsc, of course, seemed in the most excitable of spirits as the class came into the Danger Shop this week, the setting looking an awful lot like the clearing they were in last week, but with an assortment of long-range weapons rather than . "Today, we talk about one of the most essential parts of being a good ranger, and that is...of course!....buttkicking! But, more specifically, it is buttkicking was a proficiency in certain weapons. Now, I noticed last week that many of you are already very proficient in swords and the like, but what a ranger really needs is an equal proficiency in a range weapons. They are range-ers, after all!"

"So here we have a collection of different range weapons. Some of you mentioned being trained with guns and lasers, pew pew, but rangering is an older art, so we will use older weapons! We've got bows, crossbows, some very nice slings, and darts." And, yes, those last ones were big giant lawn darts; Minsc had messed up a little with the Danger Shop programming.

"I would not be surprised if some of you already have a proficiency in one of these long-range weapons already. If so, try one you're not as familiar with. Or, instead of just going for the targets, I can put you in a real battle with a beastie form the programming, and what you can do there is work on being able to fight an enemy who, unlike the targets, won't just stay put, so you'll have to work on potentially switching in and out between weapons for a more efficient kill!"

"Off to the side, there are also practise swords and staffs. If you are done with target practise, it is good to keep up your other work, and you may choose to spar with each other! I actually encourage this, as no ranger should get rusty! Well, then! Have at it! And if there are any questions, please just ask! TO ARMS!"

Ben came dangerously close to a giggle fit as the thought, "it doesn't come off" flitted through his head.

"Deal," he said instead.

Tahiri barely managed to look at him out of sheer embarrassment, but nodded. "Okay. Um. You. Me. Ice cream later. I'm going to go try out some of the swords n . . ."

She had to drop the bow and cover her face with her hands right about then.

Ben burst out laughing. "I'm going to stay here and never talk again," he promised.

Tahiri narrowed her eyes at him, shaking her head, and started to back away. "See how long that lasts," she mumbled under her breath.

She was amused, honestly. It was just that the amusement was buried under layers of flail and mortification.
