Introduction to Robotics, Friday

A classroom full of teenagers. That was going to be... something.

Kaidan stood at the front of the class, a datapad in his hand and his eyes trained on the students. "Good morning," he said, "And welcome to Introduction to Robotics. I'm Lieutenant Commander Kaidan Alenko of the Systems Alliance, I look forward to meeting the rest of you." He cleared his throat. "Over the past year, my... universe--" It was weird, okay? "--suffered under an attack that involved advanced robotic AIs - that's artificial intelligences - called the geth. Much has been said about the geth and what level of sentience they've got. It's something we'll be talking about later down the line."

He put the datapad down on the desk. "But not yet. I'm given to understand most folks here aren't from the same place, though," he said, "and as we're going to be talking about advanced technology, I'd like to know where your worlds are at, and what experience you might have had in dealing with robotics, virtual intelligences, things like that. So let's start off there."

"Sounds fun," Topher said. "Will this job at any time involve getting to play with robots?"

"Yes! Deal." Topher, stop bouncing. "Also--" because now he was in kiss-ass mode-- "best topic for a class ever. Just saying."

"So a school with people from all across time is probably a good place to work on them," Topher said. "'Cause some people are from way in the future and all that and know what's up. And some people aren't, but they're geniuses anyway."

Like so.
