Winter Sports, Monday, Period Two

[doubleohblonde]

Bond had informed his class that they should meet him in the Danger Shop this morning. When they arrived they found themselves standing at the top of a very long, very steep track with a small sled placed at the starting line.

"Good morning, and welcome to Winter Sports, which I trust will need very little explanation of the course material," Bond, who just happened to be wearing a bodysuit, helmet, and booties, began. "Today we'll be starting with luge. Now, luge is considered one of the most dangerous sports today, so even with the Danger Shop's safety protocols, you'll first be changing into the provided safety gear."

After the class had changed, he continued. "Now, I could give you a very long and detailed lecture on the history of luge, and the physics of it, but really, the point of the class is doing, so you'll be taking turns to go down the track one by one before we do introductions at the bottom of the track. Now if you'll watch me for the correct form."

With that, Bond sat on the sled and launched himself down the track.

Introductions - WS [01]

Once all the students made it to the bottom of the track Bond clapped his hands together.

"Now, introductions. Name, year, favourite winter sport if you have one. For example, James Bond, teacher, skiing."

"Hullo," Bod said, waving for no good reason. "I'm Nobody Owens, I'm soon to be a senior and my favorite winter sport is...well, I haven't really participated in many. Tubing, perhaps? I liked that when I tried it."

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

Bond smiled. "Good to see you again, Nobody," he said. "You might enjoy some of the slower versions of sledding."

See how he was being a good teacher by not suggesting Bod try skeleton?

"I probably would," Bod agreed with a nod. "I haven't been exposed to many types of winter sports but hopefully that changes and I don't crash too often while doing it."

Oh yes, first class of the semester and another totally hot professor. Caroline could totally live with this.

"Hi! I'm Caroline Forbes, though I think most of you already knew that. Regrettably I'm a junior, so that's a whole two years for me to fight it out and graduate with honors. Um, winter sports...does sitting in the lodge drinking cocoa while other people ski count? I was a cheerleader in my previous life, but that was more of a year-round sport."

"It doesn't really count, I'm afraid," Bond said. "Welcome to the class, Caroline."

"Thank you, Mr. Bond," she said. "Um, that won't count against me, will it? I mean, grade-wise." Her transcript was kind of her pride and joy. "I'm very athletic, just more summer and fall athletic."

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

"Only if you sneak off to do it during class," he told her. "Which I do hope you won't."

"Oh, never!" There went that plan for the skiing class. "I mean, I might bring it to class, but I'd bring enough to share. Even fake skiing can get cold."

"My name is Lion-o and I'll be a senior this fall," he began. "I don't really have any favorite winter sports since we didn't have a winter on my home planet."

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

Bond looked faintly disturbed by the notion of no winter. "Well, hopefully you'll be able to find one in this class."

"Jack McCallister, senior, skiing. Hockey is good too."

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

[doubleohblonde]

"Ice?" Bond asked, because he was a bit of a smart-arse. "Or do you just admire the skirts on the women's field team?"

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

"I did mean ice," Jack replied, "but now I'm starting to see the appeal of field."

"Jason Todd, sophomore, hockey," he said with a smile. "I don't have a favorite team or anything, but it's fun to watch."

Re: Introductions - WS [01]

Bond nodded. "Jack over there is a hockey fan too, so I'm sure you'll have plenty to talk about." And there would be less chance of a brawl then if they'd liked opposing teams.
