How To Shoot Straight, Monday

"Your trip is next week," Atton said. "So I think this is as good a time as any to end the block on handguns."

They were in the gun range again. He was waving at... guns, yes.

"I want you guys to team up," he said. "One of you has to get the gun, go through all of the safety measures we've talked about, and score at least twenty-five points on the moving targets at the back of the range. The other one takes notes about their point score and whether they're doing everything correctly. Yes, you're allowed to correct each other, and if the other person does it right the second time, they pass. If the other person then behaves like a stubborn idiot and does it wrong anyway, they lose points."

He clapped his hands.

The little round targets at the back of the range - some marked '1 point', some '5 points', and occasionally, one '10 points' - started moving from side to side.

"When you're done, swap places. Okay, go."

Alluka looked around for a partner, half-expecting to be chosen last since, well, hey. It wasn't like she had a lot of experience in the whole being picked thing.

She patted the little stuffed flower in her pocket (Mr. Bubbles did not get carried around during Atton's class) and tried not to worry about it. Someone would pick her, right?

Ringo hadn't actually been avoiding Alluka during this class so far, but the subject matter had left her uncomfortable enough that she hadn't been paying proper attention to her friend.

She wasn't feeling particularly more comfortable with guns today, but she was relieved when she looked around for a partner and spotted Alluka.

"Hey," she said, managing an awkward grin as she walked over. "Do you have a partner yet?" She hoped she'd gotten there in time to be first.

"I don't!" Alluka beamed at Ringo. "Do, do you have a partner?"

Maybe she was just saying hello?
soniaroadsqueen: (seriously)

"Not yet." Ringo smiled in relief.

"Will you be mine?"

There was a Valentine's Day joke in there somewhere, but Alluka didn't notice.

"Oh, yes, please! Did you want to go first?"
soniaroadsqueen: (pensive)

Yeah, Ringo was too nervous to catch it either.

She was too busy smiling a bit nervously and licking her lips. "Um, do you?" Because Ringo didn't want to say she didn't want to go first, but she totally didn't want to go first.

Alluka's expression shifted to something... a little more thoughtful. She was still smiling though.

"I can do it," Alluka said earnestly. "I don't mind."

Ringo was too busy being relieved to notice that little shift. She let out a little sigh without noticing.

"Awesome!" She grinned. "Though I don't know that I'll have much to say to correct you," she cautioned. She didn't feel that confident yet, after all.

"It's okay," Alluka said, smiling again, since Ringo seemed... weird. "I don't mind. I think I know what I'm doing here."

And it came easily to her, in any case.
soniaroadsqueen: (soft)

"Good." Ringo nodded.

"And, I mean, I think I know enough to at least, you know take notes and stuff?" She had been paying attention to the lessons, and she'd always been good with mechanical things, so she felt like she knew stuff, but she still wasn't comfortable with it all.
that_oldsaying: (Who me?)

Alluka looked at her.

"You're going to take notes on what I do?"
soniaroadsqueen: (pensive)

Ringo blinked, chewing on her lower lip for a moment.

"Um. Isn't that what he said the assignment was? One of us shoots, one of us takes notes and keeps score, and then we swap?"

Ahsoka smiled at Mara. You know, like a nexu would.

"Oh. You."

That was wildly enthusiastic for Mara. Sort of.

"Me," Ahsoka confirmed far too cheerfully.

"Yay."

See? Super enthusiastic.

"I can shoot you in this, right?"

No, Mara.

"You can try."

Ahsoka, no!

Mara smirked back. "I haven't missed on purpose in years."

"Then I'll know it was an accident when you miss."

Girls, girls, you're both disturbingly violent.

Star Wars writers had a type...

Mara glared at her. "Fine. You first."

"All right," Ahsoka agreed in a tone that could only be described as blithe.

Following every single rule Atton had mentioned over the past few weeks, she prepped her weapon and proceeded to fire a round through every single target marked with a ten.

Show-off.
giveherahand: (neg: you're wrong and i'm telling you so)

Mara rolled her eyes. "I can can do that too. It doesn't make you special."

"If you think you can do better, be my guest."

Somewhere in the Force, Padme's spirit was face-palming.
