Basic Strategy, Monday, Period 4

"Hello again," Tyrion said easily. "If you were a woman this weekend, and you normally aren't, I hope you found something to enjoy about the experience. If you're always a woman, I hope you didn't hurt yourselves too badly laughing at those of us with new centers of gravity. And with that, I'm moving into an easy assignment -- for me, not for you."

"I just have to read the names on this piece of paper, then you're to take care of the rest of it. I drew names at random to pair you up. Each pair is to spend some time together over the course of the week discussing something each of you might teach the other, and perhaps beginning some instruction in it. I don't especially care what the skill is, but please, nothing illegal, particularly immoral, or likely to get you killed."

He was betting on the last element being the hardest.

"You can either spend today as a discussion session, or leave with your partner to go work on whatever you're teaching each other. Next week, we'll review what we learned."

And with that, he took out the sheet and began to read.

"If all else fails, I could teach you how to put together other people's outfits. You know, if we can't come up with an alternative." She frowned, thinking. "Okay, maybe we should focus on what you could teach me, find a jumping off point there."

Ben grinned. "Have you ever flown a spaceship?"

"Ooh, no, I haven't." Alice grinned in return.

"I just happen to be related to the guy who has the key to the flight shed," Ben replied. "Does that sound like a plan?"

"Only like the best plan I've heard in ages!"

Ben beamed at her. "Astral. What'll you teach me in exchange?"

"Let's see... fashion's out... do you know how to fight?"

She'd learned more than enough from Jasper to pass on a few things, at least.

Ben grinned. "I've been trained since I was nine, yeah," he admitted.

Fandom was special that way.

"Okay, so fighting's out, too." Alice tilted her head thoughtfully. "Can you dance?"

She was starting to run out of her obvious skills here. This could be a challenge.

"Not really unless lightsa--swordfighting counts," Ben replied.
