Adventure Games, Monday, Period 3

[eager-platypus.livejournal.com]

Ziva, like many of the other teachers it seemed, had decided that the weather was nice enough to hold class outside by the main campfire.

"Good afternoon," she said, taking a look around at everyone. "My name is Ms. David, and this is Adventure Games. Hopefully, you are all in the right place. If not, you are welcome to stay anyway. My goal is for this to be a very summer camp-appropriate workshop. We are going to be active and have some fun and not do anything that requires too much thinking. I hope that is all right with you all." She'd met some nerdy students, it was possible the answer to that was no.

"Today, we are going to do two things. First, I would like everyone to introduce themselves so that I can learn all of your names. Then you are going to pick partners, and we are going to do trust falls. Many of the activities we will be doing will involve working together. You must learn to trust one another if any of you are going to succeed."

A really terrible time so Alex hoped that didn't happen because he did actually let himself fall backwards.

And, though not without a slight grunt, Alexander managed to catch him.

"Ha! Success!"

Once he was certain that he wasn't going to end up on his ass, Alex smiled and clambered back to his feet.

"Nice job," he allowed, nodding. "Always good to know I wasn't going to get dropped. You ready to do yours now?"

"I suppose so," said Alexander, whose own trust issues usually didn't present themselves until the moment of, such as now. But he'd caught Alex, so Alex had no reason to not catch Alexander. It was reasonable, logical, and just the right thing to do...

...which was why it had every reason to fail, but, on the same token, you never knew until you did something. So Alexander dutifully turned around, reminded himself that, so far, everyone here had been very kind and good, and closed his eyes.

"Count it down?"

"Yep. Three, two..." Lucky for Alexander, Alex had no intention of dropping him. He wasn't in a bad mood and he wasn't looking to just be a jerk so he was safe today.

"One," he said and got ready to catch the other boy.
