Best Defence, Thursday

[seeks_truth]

Today, the class would find themselves in the Danger Shop facing no one but Cassandra. Cass had her arms crossed and one eyebrow raised. "Your teacher cannot be here today due to... reasons, she said."

Rather it had been something about a film and a woman punching things that Cassandra had barely understood, but whatever.

"You joined this class to hit things," she said, "So today, we will hit things. Since there is no better teacher but experience, I have decided to let you have some. Find a creature. Hit it. Kill it, if you must. But incapacitate it somehow."

A pause.

"That is all. Do not look at me, I am not in the business of inspiring speeches."

Hit A...

...Squirrel?

You could always incapacitate that, if you can catch it.

Peebee just eyed the squirrel from a distance for a little while.

"You're still creepy," she informed it, "and I maybe still have a grudge about being squirrelnapped the other week, but this seems like it would be an extreme reaction."

If it was person-sized, that might have been a different story, but then again if it was person-sized it probably would have been a lot easier to catch.

...Soldier?

[seeks_truth]

There is a small group of scouts in light armor scattered across the hilly landscape. You could punch one of them.

...Gremlin-Shaped Monster?

[seeks_truth]

It's about the size of a human, but it looks like a gremlin. It does not have any venom.

You can punch that.

...Butterfly?

[seeks_truth]

Oh, come on. Cassandra will judge you for this.

...Bear?

"I did not put that into this simulation," Cassandra muttered, of the bear. "Ugh."
