fandomhigh | How Not to Die, [Friday, 4th Period]

Cara's class were once again meeting in an ordinary classroom, and she looked much better for wear than last time.

"We were going to have a class on tracking today, but it would seem the deer have taken a turn for the violent, and it's catching if the radio is to be believed." Not that she was looking at anyone in the class in particular.

No, wait, she totally was ~~assuming Cassandra was there~~.

"Now, for those of you who have not had the joy of experiencing it, the island regularly goes through bouts of insanity, and it's entirely possible we're headed towards another," Cara stated blandly. "Of course it's equally likely that we're merely dealing with the results of the island having ill-advised dalliances with other landmasses while we were on break." Just let at mental image sink in a moment, kids.

"But we're not here to work out why the island's being crazy, or even if it's a bout of life-threatening crazy as opposed to merely dignity-threatening, that's likely to become clear on it's own soon enough. Instead you're going to work out potential strategies for dealing with the problem, play to your strengths."

She paused. "Brawling with other students on the street is not an option."

Oh no. We're all going to die horribly.

Cassandra Pentaghast

Who's awfully blasé about the potential for imminent peril.

Cassandra was not yet aware that Anders had already claimed the prize Leland had dangled over their heads, and so she was equal parts seething and impatient. "I need to be elsewhere," she snapped.

Hunting deer.

Cara didn't bat an eyelid or raise her voice. "You need to sit down."

Despite the lack of volume it was clear that it was an order, not a suggestion.

"I do not," Cassandra snapped. "This is more important than your class."

"Then you shouldn't have come at all." Of course if she'd done that without a decent reason, Cara would've been more than happy to hand out her first detention the following week. "Now that you're here you'll stay until I say you can go."

Foiled by her own sense of duty.

Cassandra scowled at her. "The consequences be on your head."

Not that she'd elaborate on the consequences.

Which meant that Cara was shockingly unmoved by either scowl or statement. "I'm sure I can handle them."

Imminent peril (or an island STI) approaches, what do you do?

Who was able to tell students not to get into fights with a straight face, yes.
