Rookiehood 101, Tuesday, Period 4
"Yo, Rookies!" Hark, was that the territorial call of the wild Reno in his natural habitat? Oh, it totally was. "Bit of a change of pace for you this week, yo. When this period ends, you're all on a mission, yo. This week, I ain't gonna be the teacher."
He smirked, and then set out on that slow, deliberate saunter of his, walking paces back and forth in front of the class.
"Half of you are. And half of you are gonna be the rookies. All you teachers? It's gonna be your job to look out for the rookies this week. Rookies? It's your job to be... rookies. Make like you don't know nothin'. Give your teacher a rough time, yo. Do whatever it is you figure rookies do."
He nodded at the board, where he'd scrawled out the names of the two groups.
"Today, just pair off, figure out what it is you're gonna be rookies at. You can teach and learn just about anything, but be prepared to tell me next week what it was you did and how it went, yo. Teachers? Word of advice? Just because you got some theoretical kinda power right now don't mean you get to abuse it. If you're gonna tell 'em to run laps around the island, you damn well better be prepared to run 'em too. And you better be better at it. They ain't gonna respect you if you don't come off as competent, yo. They're your rookies, so it's up to you to set an example, here."
He smirked, and then waved his hands at the class.
"Go on, get to it. Don't let me keep you waitin', yo."
[Open!]

Re: Pair off and plan your week
... He was lucky his Rookie was restraining her tongue.
"Maybe maybe," she said, shrugging. "When's good for you, for trainin'?"

A beat.
"But, tip: if you're going to mentor someone you've gotta be the boss. Don't ask when's good for the minion 'cause the minion ain't supposed to get a say." She considered that and shrugged.
If he couldn't figure out that bossing her around was only going to lead to her being a brat at him, well, that experience was valuable too, right?
