Tactics and Teamwork, Wednesday - Second Period

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

Today the scenery in the dangershop was finally different. Instead of a bland warehouse, it was a bland box canyon in the ass end of space. Awesome, right?

Which meant there was a lot more room to fight. Or not fight. Possibly question your life choices.

Once laps were done and armor put on, the teacher was ready to begin the lesson. Might wanna use the term loosely, though.

"Today we'll be switching things up," Washington said. "You now have bases to work out of instead of a killing floor everywhere. The goal today will be to capture the enemy's flag."

Which was a thing that made sense in warfare.

Damn it, Halo.

"And to make things interesting, blue team will have a tank."

Hope one of you knew how to use a tank with a surly AI system inexplicably named Sheila.

"I'll keep an eye on things in case anyone gets any ideas about cheating." Whether or not he'd stop them was left up in the air.

"Hands off the treads, buddy," a distinctly female and slightly stilted voice said. The turret of the tank rotated like it was looking at him. "I am not a piece of meat."

Face pulled his hand back. "Oh, of course you aren't, ma'am, not in any sense of the phrase," he said smoothly, addressing the turret. "I sincerely apologise for any offence."

She was a strong, independent tank and didn't need no man.

"As long as we are clear on that."

Careful, Sheila, that was exactly Face's type.

"As transparisteel," he said, before smiling up at her. "Let's try starting this over. I'm Face, who do I have the pleasure of meeting?"

It was impossible to imagine why Cassandra had trouble taking you seriously, given you were flirting with a tank right now, Face.

This would in tears and someone being blown up.

"My name is Sheila." Because the director changed her name randomly. It had been very odd, but who was she to question him? "It is very nice to meet you, Face."
