fandomhigh | Teamwork and Tactics, 3rd Period

Class met up in the danger shop rather than a classroom. It had been programmed into a warehouse with enough levels and things to hide behind for practice combat. Which, you know, might have been for a reason.

Just saying.

"Welcome to Teamwork and Tactics," Washington said, eyeing his class critically from behind the helmet. So, it mostly just looked like he was glancing in their general direction. "Some of you I've had before, but some of you are new. I'm Agent Washington and I'll be your teacher. First order of business will be laps. Five laps around the room."

No, he wasn't kidding about that. Sorry kids, it was leg day now.

Only once the laps were done with did Wash bring out some nice armor in either red or blue for the students to put on and collection of paintball guns for them to choose from.

"Today you'll be working in teams to try and eliminate your opponents. The teams are based off the color of the armor you chose and you'll receive coordinating colored ammo as well." A beat. "Please don't shoot yourselves with the paintballs. The armor will protect your from most damage, but you will still feel it and it will still sting. Once the exercise is complete, we'll have introductions."

Because practical experience was much more fun!

Red or blue. Cap or Tony. Supes or Bats. Which side are you on?

It's fun! Maybe. Not really.

Well, at least the armor wasn't too complicated to put on.

Darn reds.

Darn blues.

Seriously, try not to shoot yourself. Or teamkill.

Whilst paint-splattered.

Who was enjoying this way too much behind that face obscuring helmet.

It's a shooting things kind of day.

Nathan Byrn

Red, Cap, Supes.

Nathan could run. Nathan could run for long distances and for a long time. Five laps was something he finished quickly and without being out of breath at all.

Armor on, Nathan spent the few minutes before the game started to familiarize himself with how the paintball gun worked and to make sure he knew which people were on his team.

Nathan was covered in paint but he didn't mind it that much. At least it hadn't gotten in his eyes.

"Nathan Byrn," he said once it came to be his turn. "Senior.

That was what the helmets were for. Well, that and preventing a concussion. Because Wash was pretty sure he'd get sued if that happened.

"Nice to meet you, Nathan. Why are you taking this class?"

Nathan shrugged which he knew wasn't a great answer.

"I've been on my own for most of my life," he said. "Maybe I need to learn how to work with other people since I figure I'll need some help at some point."

Paintball gun in hand, Nathan ducked behind some cover and waited till he saw someone looking unaware. Then, he'd pop up and shoot them.

Tali'Zorah, Blue

Running? Still not Tali's favorite, really, but she could do it easily enough.

And if she'd adjusted the oxygen intake on her suit just for things like this? YOU WERE NEVER GOING TO KNOW.

Tali spent her prep time checking over her paintball gun (that thing was not going to jam up on her watch, thank you) and adjusting her armor.

And also listening to a prep soundtrack of pump-up music inside her helmet, shh.

"Tali'Zorah nar Rayya, junior," she said, wiping a few paint splotches off her face mask. "The class was fun last time, and it never hurts to stay in practice."

"Self reliance can also be a good tactic," Wash pointed out. "One person is sometimes able to accomplish what a group can't."

YOU KNOW. JUST SAYIN'.

"But working in a team also allows you to fill in your weaknesses with other people's strengths."

"Good to see you again, Tali," Wash replied. "You... thought it was fun?"

Oh god, you made his day almost as much as a cat.

Yes. Even with the totally suspicious AI.

"Sure." Tali shrugged. "It's interesting working with people who aren't used to thinking in terms of combat tactics. It's different, you know? Pretty creative."

Hey. Hey. Delta was okay.

The other AIs sucked, though. Wash was down with some AI distrust.

"Keeps you on your toes, yes," Wash replied. "Did you hope to learn anything new in this semester?"
