Outdoor Adventure Time!, part 2, Tuesday, period 1

[vdistinctive]

Class today met at the docks this week, with the usual heads up to wear bathing suits and bring sunscreen. There was a large number of brightly colored personal watercrafts just off the end of the dock.

"For our last class of the summer, Parker and I wanted to do something special," Eliot said. "You guys have been enthusiastic and willing to try just about anything. We couldn't have asked for a better group."

“You really have.” Parker was so glad nobody was graduating and leaving or anything. “So you get to zoom around on the water! With motorized skis!” She beamed at them. “And then barbecue!... Try not to run over each other, okay?”

"We'd prefer not to end the summer with injuries. Which is why you're all gonna be wearing life jackets, too." Eliot would accept no negotiations on that. "You can double up or go it alone, but not more than two people per jet ski. And no going out so far you can't still see the docks. We've got some buoys set up out there if you want to try maneuvers. Otherwise, just have fun, yeah?"

“And remember to sign up for our next class!” … whatever that was going to be.

"I guess that means we'll have to do parkour ourselves sometime," Kathy said, lighting up even more at the prospect of hanging out with Parker than she had about the beautiful, beautiful jewelry. "I mean, then we wouldn't have to hold back or anything!"

"We could do that!" Could students be friends? Hmm. Something to ask Hardison. Maybe they could, when they weren't being students. "And I'd like to see you bounce off a roof."

Well, Hardison was having one of his students look like Eliot in a kilt while he took pictures--there was a story there, promise--so it was possible her source would be biased.

Of course, that might be for the best anyway, as Eliot had already practically adopted her. And Kathy definitely wanted to be friends with Parker, too. Did she have any idea how cool she was?

"Oh, that would be awesome!" Kathy agreed, clapping her hands excitedly before remembering she was on a jet ski and grabbing the handle bars again. "You should see me when I really get going. Sometimes everything just kind of blurs."
