Survival | Week 6 | Period 1 | Wed. 8/12

[satedan-soldier.livejournal.com]

As usual, Ronon was waiting in the Danger Shop when students arrived. "Go get dressed out, then we'll get started," he told them, waiting in the green of Vancouver the Danger Shop-made forest and pointing toward the usual locker room doors.

Once everyone seemed to be back and uniformed up, he began his lecture. "Okay, like I warned last week, we're learning about dealing with teammates this week. Which means you're working with each other. My last assignment was a team of four made up of a leader, a soldier, an ambassadorial type, and a scientist. No one gets left behind on a team. Unlike what we've been talking about this session where your job is to save you, when you're part of a team, you're responsible for everyone. When the enemy came, the goal was to get everyone back to safety, no matter what the scientist claimed he was in the middle of doing. Sometimes it involved dragging injured people, sometimes just talking them into running at your side." Let's be honest, it was more about the dragging and shooting things.

"Today you're gonna navigate a moddable course through the woods while tied to another student in what I'm told is Earth's three-legged race style. If you can't find a partner, I'll find one for you, so grab the first person you see and let's get going."

"I can be remarkably awkward," he admitted, smiling a little, "but I do have quite a lot of hiding and avoiding trouble experience."

"I'm pretty sporty," she shared, "so we should probably be okay as long as we don't fall? Though you're fairly tall, which makes it a bit more difficult."

Or Maron was short. Either or.

"Oh," because that wasn't what he meant at all, "I meant, well, otherwise. I'm a fair hand at sports as well. I don't think the height should be too troublesome, though. I can duck."

Maron laughed.

"For our legs," she explained, gesturing to his leg and then to hers. "Your stride is different than mine."

"I'll shorten mine," he offered thoughtfully.

"Shouldn't be too bad."

"Just have to remember not to rush," she nodded, "or get impatient."

He shook his head firmly.

"Certainly not," he agreed.

"Shall we, uh, get started?"
