Archaeology for Fun and Profit! [Tues, 1st Period]

Aphra was actually holding class in the Danger Shop today, which she was unreasonably excited and disturbingly cheerful about.

She stood by an entrance of a vast forbidding temple deep in an alien jungle, albeit with less Imperial and Rebel equipment or explosion damage than the last time she'd been here. Look, she was trying for a sense of wonder here, kids, pay attention to the overhanging gas giant in the sky or something.

"Hey, kids," she said waving at the temple. "Now that we've gotten a bit of theory out of the way, let's get your feet wet on what you really signed up for, adventure, excitement, and ancient ruins!"

"This here is a Massassi Temple, it's about five thousand years old and abandoned for at least a fifth of that time, which probably makes you think about how small and insignificant we all are, or something." Such poetry, Aphra. She started handing out palm-sized crystals. "Anyway, today we'll be making our way from here to a room at the top of where placing these babies in the right spot will reveal a message from one group of previous inhabitants."

Just not the one doing that in the real thing would, Aphra wasn't stupid.

Jason made a point of at least pretending to be slightly winded by the time he finished the rope climb.

And then there were crystals and glowy lights and Jason tensed up, peering suspiciously at the wall in front of him, just waiting for a giant face to appear and start lecturing them all about letting go of their masks or whatever.

"Good to know," Jason said. "I've already had enough of a workout today, thanks." And he still had Anakin's class to go, joy!
