How To Get By In A Hostile World, Thursday
There was no teacher today.
There was just a screen, several $5 notes on the table, and a Danger Shop simulation of a large store.
"Hey," said the image of Atton that sprung to live on the screen, "Can't make it today, busy getting shot at. Your job right here is to use those five bucks to do enough groceries to feed yourself for four days. Yeah, that's also part of what this course covers, and no, that's not a real five dollar bill, don't bother stealing it."
Beat.
"That's it. Show your purchases to the scanner at the back of the class when you're done, I'll get back to it next week." Beat. "Provided I'm not dead by then."
