fandomhigh | Try Not To Die!! [Tuesday, July 5th]

Anyone who might have been nervous about showing up for the first day of a workshop with a worrisome name (and two exclamation points) to find an intimidating-looking teacher would get a pass on that today; rather than Anakin waiting for them all by the London docks they'd find Tahiri, hands tucked behind her back and her feet bare as always.

"Hello, everyone," she said rapidly but clearly once the students had assembled. "Master Skywalker's away today, but he'll be back next week. If any of you haven't gotten a chance to explore our new neighboring city yet, now's the day you get to do it."

She gestured to the clue box she stood beside. "Here's how this works: you have two tasks to complete by the end of the class period before you come check in with me -- no, I'm not telling you where to find me yet. Figuring that out'll be part of your job. And I'd really rather not have to explain any roster changes to Master Skywalker next week, so please." She stepped away from the clue box and gestured to the class. "Please try not to die."

Tahiri had been expecting this from her friend, of course, and was fully prepared to read the clue; the rest of the clue-holders along the route had been instructed ahead of time to do the same if they encountered the girl accompanied by the very large dog. (There might have been a little Force-persuasion involved, both to get them to comply and to make sure they went along with the "very large dog" theory.)

"I was expecting you," she teased lightly, taking the paper from Firekeeper and reading the clue aloud. "Don't worry; people will be able to tell you the next clues out loud."

"Good," Firekeeper said with a nod. Over her years in Fandom, multiple attempts to learn how to read had been made, all with very little success. By now she was pretty much resigned to it, as much as she knew the skill would be useful. "Thank you," she added somewhat belatedly, remembering that even if Tahiri knew full well she was grateful for the consideration, proper behavior meant acknowledging that gratitude out loud.

As if Tahiri would have minded; years after leaving Tatooine, social niceties still weren't as high on her priority list as some people thought they should be.

"Don't mention it," she answered with a grin. "You'd better get started though, shouldn't you?"
