fandomhigh | Tactics and Teamwork, Wednesday

When students arrived, the danger shop didn't look like anything in particular. Just a big, empty room. Pretty boring, to be honest.

"Welcome to Tactics and Teamwork," Washington said. "I'm Agent Washington, your instructor. We'll have further introductions after running drills. Get to it."

Cardio was important when it came to not dying, kids! Just be glad he didn't have time to plan out the perfect obstacle course for you as well.

This was also a good way to gauge the fitness levels of the class. Just... don't puke or anything. He wasn't going to clean that up. Only once laps were completed was everyone presented with a very basic set of body armor in either red or blue and a paintball gun with the same color bullets. Fair warning, even with the armor, it would still sting.

"I'm aware that there is an uneven number of students in this class, so for the purposes of team exercises, there will be a simulation soldier programmed into the system to assist you," Washington said. "For this class, I want to see where your skills are at working in working as a cohesive team against one another. The objective is to remove all the opponents on the other team from play by hitting them with the paintball gun."

The room changed into... well, pretty much like it was before. Only this time, there were large storage crates scattered around for cover.

"I'll be keeping an eye on your progress and will step in should anyone get too... enthusiastic."

Plan your attack. Or wing it. Maybe take a shot at a teammate on accident.

Ringo looked awkwardly around. "Um, hi," she said, just as awkwardly. "I'm Ringo." It was important to get to know your teammates, right?

Once introductions were out of the way Tali had immediately pulled up her omni-tool to start running scans of the Danger Shop, just to make sure she wasn't going to have some rogue-AI situation on her hands. So far, it didn't look like that would be a concern, but she was going to set up an override program JUST IN CASE.

"Hi," she replied. "This kind of thing is all new to you, right? That's what you said?"

Did the simulation soldier count? Because that programming was not going how tge teacher wanted.

"Hi, oh hi my new team." the strangely chipper program chimed in a beat too late.

Face, who'd been eyeing Tali curiously, looked from her, to the simulation soldier, to her omni-tool. "That's some kind of tool, right?" he asked. "I don't suppose it can slice into the computer and change his visibility?"

Ringo had found herself quite relieved to find Face on her team. As her big sibling, he was probably very responsible, and could be relied upon to provide sage advice and guidance.

So she awkwardly waved at the weird blue guy as she answered Tali's question. "I've never really, um. Guns? And this armor stuff?" She shook her head. "I'm used to being able to move faster." And no shooting.

Well, she'd be keeping a close eye on that simulation soldier, but there wouldn't be a real problem unless it turned on them.

Though it was disturbingly cheerful. That part was throwing her off.

"Oh, probably," Tali said offhandedly; her omni-tool was currently projecting a 3-D schematic of the Danger Shop's present setting. "I'm not too familiar with this system yet, though. I'd need a little more time to figure it out." Thanks for being from another world, Danger Shop.

She probably just needed to slap some omni-gel on it.

"We've got time," Face said. "I figure we make a show of reacting to whatever they've got planned, while cloaking this guy and sending him around to snipe their collective six."

"I'm your six!"

Yes. Thank you, simulation soldier.

"If we need a distraction, I'm good for that," Vider volunteered. She figured it was the most logical application for a berserker in this scenario.

Or they could deal with the glitchy simulation soldier. Wash really shouldn't have pressed that 'WTF' button before class arrived.

Because now there was a blue splash of paint on Vider's chestplate. "Not my fault! She got in the way. Of my bullet."

Vider looked down at her chest and then looked up to inform her teammates, "Really I should go nuts right now and just start killing people until I fall over dead." She was going to not do that at this time.
