Irritated to leave her prisoner behind, Eighth certainly looks distracted as she walks into class late. After passing the sign in sheet around, she eyes them all carefully.

"Surprise, sweethearts. Pop Quiz." And she passes it out with a small, secret smile.

You've captured the child of a warlord from a distant galaxy and have learned all about his world, his technology and his military forces – albeit from a child's perspective. You, of course, have a superior fighting force and you are great need of the superior technology of this distant galaxy. This particular far-off civilization has previously been ravaged by a similar army to your own and should be somewhat prepared. However, that previous invading force COULD see your army as invading their territory and that you are attacking their personal enemies and would be affronted and therefore attack you back. (A) Should you attack? (B) Should you collect more information?

"After you finish your pop quiz, please read the following document. Being able to openly state your intentions and deceiving the other party is a skill for every tactician, as well as being able to tell little white lies that cover up exactly what you are up to.

Pair up and roleplay, as it where, a little disinformation yourself. Try to find out your partner's Valentine's Day plans while spinning your own tale of deception.

Oh -- I'm afraid I will need to speak to you again, Mr. Mitchell. See me after class ~~for real this time~~."

"Ah, well, how would you like a little trip into the special collection, Mr. Mitchell? I'd like you to work on a particularly ... special project next Monday in lieu of coming to class."

"I wouldn't mind a special project, ma'am, but can't I do it outside class hours?" Cameron frowned.

She smirks slightly. "I'm sure you have a very busy schedule, Mr. Mitchell, and I don't want to take too much of your outside-of-class time to get this project completed."

"I can manage, ma'am. I'd hate to miss a class," Cameron replied.

"Ah, but this is for class," she argues back. "And you won't be missing anything important."

Cameron nods. "I'd still prefer not to miss anything. I'm sure I can find the time to do it outside of class like."

"Mr. Mitchell, I don't want to argue this," she says shortly. "I'd like you to be in the library at the start of class next week. I'll speak to the librarians tomorrow to ensure that you have a pass into the special collections and I will send you the perimeters of the project via email on Wednesday. End of discussion."

"Yes, ma'am." Cameron said shortly.
