Fandom Invasions: A Survival Guide- Friday, Period One
"Once upon a time, the students of the island realized that when the worst happens, they were all just as likely to be the ones stepping up to fight as the teachers charged with their safety. I'm none too thrilled about the trend myself, but when I was a student here, good luck to anybody thinking they'd stand a chance at keeping me out of the thick of the worst of it, when the island was falling apart around us. And, with that in mind, a group of students got together and created the three reserves groups, a sort of casual militia that met once a week to discuss strategies in case all hell broke loose. There was one for those students who tended toward physical fighting, toward battling off threats using weapons and strategy. There was one for people with powers, the ones who could fly or teleport or throw fire from their faces." Guess which one Jono had joined, kids! "And there was one for the students who weren't fighters in either regard, for the ones who wanted to volunteer their time as support for the island's student soldiers," his nose wrinkled a little at that term, "providing food, first-aid, or any other assistance they could provide."
It was a subject near and dear to Jono's heart, but speaking as someone whose job it was, now, to doing his damnedest to keep his students safe, it was probably no surprise which of the three groups he chose to elaborate on first, today.
"We'll be doing a bit of work reminiscent of the support reserves today," he shared. "Putting together lists of things that will come in handy during invasions for fighters and non-fighters alike, from first-aid kids to non-perishable foods to bottles of water and maps and some way to re-charge a phone should the power go out and we find ourselves in need of making emergency calls. I'll get you to all discuss it as a group, and then next week, I'll give you each a kit containing whatever it was you came up with. The challenge is to come up with things that are easy to carry around, easy to get your hands on, and that will last long enough to see an invasion in the first place. Around here, that could be tomorrow, or it could be months from now."
He contemplated stressing 'cheap,' too, as these things were coming out of his pocket. He refrained all the same. You're welcome, class.
