[Class the Last: The Final Job]

Welcome to the S.S. Ridiculous! A steampunk-inspired airship, hanging out over… well, hard to say, but that city down below looks fairly dystopic.

“Final time!” Parker sang out. She grinned and pointed at the deck, full of barrels, red crystals reflecting light beams, a very high rigging, and some loose ropes. “Time to escape!”

Eliot . . . looked resigned. "This is all Parker's idea. Just be glad there's no crocodiles."

A group of odd, clunking robots came marching out of one of the doors.

"Okay, those mighta been my idea," Eliot admitted with a faint smirk.

“I like them.” Parker nodded approvingly. “So yes, get off the ship, and there’s cake! … varieties of cake.”

Welcome to your Final. Think of it as practice for the Graduation ceremony.

"Pfftttt." Silly Kathy. "You were here every week, you participated, you didn't wreck the Danger Shop--" And honest concern, let's be real. "You escaped and took over the ship!" Thrilled! Parker was so thrilled. "A. Plus."

Now Kathy was bouncing a little in place, hand on her newly-acquired pirate's hat to make sure it didn't go anywhere. "Yes! Thank you, Ms. Parker! I'm gonna take every class of yours and Mr. Spencer's!"

Parker grinned at her and said, "Outdoor Adventure this summer! You won't be sorry! Ropes course! Windsurfing! Scuba diving!"

And some meditating in the woods or whatever with Eliot, if you needed a break.

Kathy did yoga on her own time. She wanted to fling herself off of something very tall.

"Is it cheating if I just run right across the ropes?" Like she'd done up in the rigging, giggling madly the whole way.

"You reeeeally should learn how to do it without running. For those times when there's no surface to run on," Parker said with only a little regret. "...which doesn't mean you can't do that right after, though."

Kathy pouted for the barest moment before nodding. Parker had a point. "I am in class to learn new skills, not just have fun with the ones I have," she agreed. "Like stealing a pirate airship!"
