The Art of Meditation and Kicking Ass [Thursday, December 4th, 2014, 2nd period]

Anakin'd had a bad feeling about things from the second he stepped foot on the island, which was why the Danger Shop was equipped with punching bags, sparring areas, and a shooting range. "If this is your first semester in Fandom," Anakin began, looking serious, "the stories that the others told you about some kind of weird...something...happening at the end of each semester are entirely true. I don't know what this particular version is going to look like, but I have a bad feeling about things and since you're in a class about kicking ass, I know that telling you to stay off of the front lines is an entirely pointless waste of my breath. So I want you to be prepared."

He gestured toward the equipment. "Use whatever weapon suits your skillset and practice like you'll have to use it this week. Keep your mind focused." His lips ghosted up into a slightly humorless smile. "Mind what you have learned," he recited. "Save you, it can."

He'd be walking around the room to offer suggestions on technique.

"Me? I'm fine," Tate assured him, topping it with a very un-Alana hair flip. "Just a little stressed. You know, finals and stuff."

Locked inside her head but still aware of what was going on, Alana tried to send a message with her eyes: Help me. Please. All she managed to get through before Tate throttled her back into silence was some odd-looking blinking.

Tate chafed at the instruction, but it seemed like Alana was going to make him have a stroke if he argued with it, so he shrugged. "No problem, big guy."

He swiveled, braced himself and pulled off a sloppy, casual shot an inch or two from the bull's eye. "See, nothing to worry about."

In his head, Alana firmly insisted -- more or less correctly -- that she would have hit the damn bull's eye.

"Chief," Tate said affably. "Boss. Prof. Teach."

He groped Alana's memories for an actual name, his hesitance enough to let Alana break through for the tiniest second.

"Get him out," she said urgently -- or started to say, though Tate was able to turn it into a strangled coughing fit midway through.

"You don't think Big Guy is friendlier?" Tate asked him. "Master Skywalker's a mouthful. Also it sounds like the leader of a cult."

He wasn't doing a particularly good job of acting like Alana by this point. However, he didn't seem inclined to do anything with the gun beyond holding it by his side.
