fandomhigh | Rangering!, Friday, Period Five [ 06/12 ].

"Good afternoon, class!" Today, they would find themselves being greeted by their brusque teacher in the usual Danger Shop clearing, although the woods seemed a bit thicker, the rocky bits rockier, and there was the sound of a waterfall and a river off in the distance, which spilled out into the sea. It was all very pretty.

"Today we are working on two very important ranger skills! Tracking, and plant finding!" He started to hand out some papers, which were probably pretty helpful and full of information, but Minsc would not be offended if anyone made paper planes or blew their noses in them...because they had a lot of information on them and reading was hard. "Being able to recognize signs of creatures in the area recently might be a big difference between a successful raid or being eaten by a bear! And knowing the difference between a plant that can a heal and a plant that can give you explosive stomach pains is very good, too! You'd be surprised how similar they make some of those! So please look over the material, ask any questions if you've got them, and I'd like you to pair up, go into the woods, and start tracking! Try to find the lair of a creature or monster hidden in these woods, and then try to locate at least three bad plants and three good plants! When you are done, you may work on your sparring or target practise. Now go!"

"A kind offer, which I," will probably cling onto like a lifeline, "Take into consideration." He smiled briefly, and gave him a nod. "On a related note," he continued, "Do I have to fear more hamster jokes on your next exam...?"

Just so he could prepare, mind.

To that, Minsc barked out a laugh. "Ha! I do not know of any hamster jokes in which you refer to, Sir Arthur. And, besides, even if they were, I can't very well tell you and give you an unfair advantage over the others."

"Incidentally, Sir Arthur, do you know what to call a hamster who can pick up an elephant?"

"Enlighten me."

Oh, this was going to be bad.

Minsc chuckled a little.

"Whatever he wants to be called! That hamster's dynamite."

"So the hamster's name would be... dynamite," Arthur took from that. Or he might have been making another joke. It was hard to tell.

"..."

People shouldn't do this to Minsc; it was mean.

"...if that's what the hamster wants to be called, then....yes."

Maybe.

Arg, why was the world so complicated?

Arthur wasn't that amused at Sir Minsc's pain. Honestl. Only a little. "If nothing else," he said, diplomatically, "Calling Boo by such names might improve his morale."

Yeah, now he was just humouring Minsc.

"Boo's good," Minsc said, "but I don't know if he's that good."

"Sounds like he could use another round of rangering training," said Arthur's expert opinion on hamsters. "But that was all, Sir Minsc. I'll leave you to your class."

Minsc nodded. "When you should reach your conclusion, Sir Arthur, you know where to find me."
