Continue Trying Not to Die! [Tues, 2nd Period]

Anakin was not there to meet the class today, instead Aphra jogged up while trying not to look like she was hurrying all late. "So your teacher had a hair emergency and asked me to take your class today!" Despite the fact that he of all people should know why this was a terrible idea.

"Looks like we're going to some place called Australia, which is supposed to be full of beautiful beaches and murderous wildlife, sounds like fun. Alright, everyone through the portal." Aphra turned the note Anakin ahd left over. "Also watch out for the drop bears."

Maybe she should do a headcount first? ...nah. It'd be fine.

Coldcoldcold.

Well, St. Kilda Beach was very picturesque, however since Aphra hadn't checked a weather report or a map, it was also the middle of winter, a cold, gloomy windy winter. Though at least it wasn't raining. Yet.

In Surf, you will wade out to a sandbar to retrieve a dive baton from the bouy tethered there and then return to the shore and the the Surf Lifesaver, who is seriously questioning their life choices in agreeing to be involved with this, there who will give you your next clue.

In Turf, you'll head up the road to the local football oval, and join the under-eighteens with their training, once you've kicked and marked to their satisfaction in the kick to kick and gotten three tens on the handball target, you'll get your clue.

Also it is totally going to start raining before you're done. A nice, miserable, gets everywhere drizzle.]

Your clues, and the very scenic tram ride, lead you to the Victorian Bar School, where you will take part in a crash version of their Barista Short Course. Once you've completed the course to the instructors satisfaction, you'll receive a clue, a take-away latte to give to Aphra, and a non-accredited certificate of completion.

Yay! Learning.

After navigating a maze of laneways, you'd eventually find Aphra next to a gas heater at one of the many, many cafes. Drinking one of their lattes.

Ahsoka Tano

Ahsoka choose Surf. Ahsoka used the Force like a Force using cheater before she got halfway out to the bar.

Ahsoka actually finished the course pretty quickly. However when she started following the map on the clue, she also very quickly discovered that Anakin or Aphra had managed to book a portal to a version of Australia that not only actually had drop bears, but had them in the Melbourne CBD.

...yeah, she'd be a while.

Between the weather and keeping drop bears from eating any of her classmates, Ahsoka's take away coffee was cold.

Which was making dumping cold coffee over a teacher a very tempting proposition.

Jason Lee Scott

When Jason heard the word 'football', he totally figured he had this down.

Until he actually got to the field and remembered, oh, yeah, what was called football over here was what he considered soccer. But really, ball, field, how hard could it be?

... Pretty hard, apparently. And then it started to rain.

He was soaking wet and visibly favoring his right knee by the time he actually finished.

Jason accidentally crushed three ceramic mugs before the instructor dryly commented that it wasn't that kind of crash course and he was only allowed to continue with to-go cups.

So, yeah, it took a while.

The lid had fallen off Jason's cup at... some point. Which meant by the time he made his way over to Aphra, bedraggled and limping, less than half the coffee was still in the cup.

Khadgar

Khadgar picked Surf, thinking he could magic his way through the water. Khadgar, however, underestimated the combination of freezing water and rain and the distraction was enough that he almost gave up. One very annoyed and wet mage ended up at the Surf Lifesaver, that was for sure.

This was so much better than dealing with the rain. Khadgar had invested a lot of time and money in the Perk over the last year, so he get through the course in what he hoped was a good amount of time.

Khadgar was happy that there were only a few people already here, and his coffee was still totally warm through the power of magic. Maybe that would get him bonus credit?

Aphra was either cheerfully oblivious to the danger she was in or deliberately ignoring it. Even odds. "Last one!"

She hadn't lost any students, yay.

"Congrats! You're the last..." Beat. "Human. Last human. Still got the Togruta."

"Huh, that's warmer than the other two were." Did he buy one around the corner or something?

Merrill

Pinkie Pie

Kaylin Neya

Kaylin didn't actually manage to complete the course, she just terrified the instructors when she started roaring in Leontine as she accidentally spilled boiling hot water over herself and several of them. She was able to quickly heal the serious burns, but they still shoved the clue, latte, and certificate at her and rushed her out the door before she could do anymore damage.

Which was why Aphra's latte was actually fairly decent.

Kaylin held out the latte to Aphra. "Here."
