How to be a Hired Gun

[notasalad.livejournal.com]

Jayne had recieved another round of memos from the office this week, once again filled with helpful suggestions for his class. One suggestion was that instead of scenarios where they were shot at the first week that introductions be made instead.

So Jayne sent out a wave to everyone to meet at the shooting range this week and to bring their favorite weapon.

"You all were... Adequate at not getting shot last week. Except for the kid who was taking pictures of himself and rescuing the turtle. You ain't right in the head."

Which only began to describe Loki.

"I was told that shooting at ya was not 'appropriate' and that introductions should be made. Fine."

He pulled up a very large rifle to display to the entire class.

"This is Vera. Got it off a man who tried to kill me with it. Now show me yours and tell me about your weapon of choice."

We'll at least you don't have to talk about yourself this week kids.

"This isn't some kind of ploy in order to get us to show off our weapons so you can confiscate them for the school administration, is it?"

Because there were rules about that kind of thing. If Sparkle had known he was supposed to bring a gun to class, he might have asked Atton if he could borrow a blaster or something.

"Why would I do that?" Jayne asked all confused-like. "Doesn't seem fair to take away someone else's gun. Unless I shot them for it."

Yuuuuuuup. The teacher shot people.

Which again, fucking obvious considering the class, but it did help put shit into perspective about this place, didn't it?

"There's a school rule against students having weapons on the grounds," Sparkle shared, a roll of his eyes and a snarky tone saying just what he thought about that on a fucked-up island like this one. "We can't even take them into the fucking dorms. There's a weapons locker we're supposed to check 'em into, keep 'em all safe and sound and out of, like, irresponsible teenage hands or whatever."

"Even in the shooting range?" Jayne said looking around at the targets and everything. "Weird."

Then again that just summed up the island for Jayne.

"Well, no," Sparkle muttered. "Not even in the shooting range."

But Sparkle had trust issues. Allll kinds of trust issues.

"I don't have a gun," he added, "but a friend showed me how to shoot and I've killed a psycho fucker who was talking about eating me with one before. The range has ones to borrow. Can I grab one of those?"
