Public Speaking [Tuesday, April 16, 2013]

"Right, well, last week completely blew," Josh began without preface, drinking from his precious, precious mug of coffee. "And next week is your final exam. For that I would like you to prepare a ten minute informational speech for newcomers to the island. Tell them all the things you wish someone had told you, and present it in a way where the person hearing you won't immediately dismiss you as being completely insane."

He leaned back against his desk. "But for today, we're going to do some improv speaking. Stand up, I'll give you a topic and you just get to go without any preparation time. It'll be fun!"

Or a disaster. One of those.

"If the six of you were put into a steel cage slap-fight rumble, who walks out victorious?" Jessica asked. "And just to make sure it's clear, slaps only. No punching, no hair pulling, no weapons, just slapping. Go."

"Me," Arietty said with conviction. "They would all be too busy slapping each other, and I could walk right out between the bars."
