Hitting Things 101- Tuesday- 4th period

[solo_sword]

The students were in a Danger Shop gym today, which aside from the circular mats set down and a weird lumpy mass of something, didn't give away what they might be doing today.

Good thing they had a teacher for that!

This week in Hitting Things, we're going to be... well, not exactly hitting each other.  More like you'll be smacking into each other and probably hitting the ground," Jaina said, picking up the lumpy mass.  "This is a sumo suit. Sumo wrestling originated in Japan, is an Olympic sport, and is a very real thing, but we're going to simplify it a lot for the sake of this class. You put the suit on.  You pair off with someone else.  You wrestle each other in these suits, and whoever is forced out of the ring or puts anything besides their feet on the mat loses.  Now, if there aren't any questions, who wants to go first?"

Like this wasn't what you expected from your day.

Listen to the lecture/wait your turn

Listen, react, put on your sumo suit, find partners, try to dash away from the class in sumo gear...

Take your turn

[solo_sword]

Sumo wrestle! Pair up, and whoever ends up outside the ring or touching the mat first loses.

Talk to Jaina

She'd be lying if she said this wasn't fun for her.

Oh god, I accidentally hit Visual Editor instead of HTML up there when posting and I think I had to edit about 14 times. Not sure this is an exaggeration.

"What the karking kark," Cade groused in a voice that wasn't nearly under his breath enough as he yanked on a sumo suit.

Alex felt very silly in the sumo suit, but she was still prepared to hit things.

On one hand, Jessica was happy to be human again for this class. After the weirdness of yesterday, she was looking forward to taking out some frustrations on something. The bad part was that the 'something' in this case was 'a classmate in an inflatable suit.' That probably wasn't the best thing.

At least there was an inflatable suit, though?

Jessica was all sumoed up, had secret powers that would make her tough to knock down even while holding back, and was only somewhat over her bad day yesterday.

Wrestle her if you dare.

[OOC: Provided you're okay with waiting until after work. Well, maybe some quick pings during lunch if I'm lucky.]

What?

Snow really wasn't sure how to react to this.

Re: Take your turn

Snow felt absolutely ridiculous, but she hoped she could learn something from this.

You know what? Excuse Anakin while he just stared at his sister like she'd been gremlin-bitten again.

IT WAS A COMPLETELY VALID CONCERN.
