How Not to Die, [Friday, 4th Period]
Today Cara's class was in the Danger Shop. This should have been a warning to those who'd taken her previous classes.
After collecting weapons from just inside the door, which should have been their second warning, they stood in a large clearing, which was dotted with conveniently person-sized lumps of debris.
"Teamwork," Cara said, before leaving a pause long enough that they might wonder if that was all they were going to get for a lecture. "Being a lone hero makes for a good story, but unless you're unbelievably good and any potential aid is so utterly incompetent that they're a liability, it'll get you dead. Ideally you'll know and trust those you're fighting beside, but sometimes you don't get that lucky."
She smiled which was your third and final warning there, folks. "Have fun."

Re: Teamwork! - HNtD [02]
... the sad thing was it wouldn't be the first time Cassandra fought one, and considering her constitution rating, she was an excellent person to hide behind.
As for Cassandra herself, she had a shield, and she had a sword, and she did not look particularly terrified. "Maker take you!"
... Look, she'd take this dragon out by herself if she really had to.
