The Island Hates You (Yes, You), Thursday Period 2

Class was in the danger shop and lucky for everyone, Cara understood the controls. Because Magnus? Magnus botched quite a few skill checks there.

Oops.

"Hello, my name is Magnus Burnsides. Fighter. Sometimes rogue," he announced cheerfully before looking at his teachin' buddy.

"Cara," Cara said from her place next to a large covered box that was shaking and making hissing noises. Probably nothing to worry about there. "And the island hates you."

It was a class name and a statement of fact, handy!

Magnus honestly looked like he wan't to dispute that, but a glance at the hissing box stopped him. "Yeeeeeah. It kinda does. Sorry, kids. But. Buuuuut, we're here to teach you how to kick it's ass!"

Or to have fun watching them try. Look one of their teachers was earnest and the other was Cara, this was all going to end in tears at some point. Probably sooner rather than later. "Normally this is where introductions come in, but first an example." A pointed example. A pointed, toothy example.

Okay, it was a box of gremlins. Three guesses whose idea this had been.

Sorry, kids.

Magnus was already hauling his shield forward and--why yes, yes there was a tiny little gremlin on it to show he had fought these little motherfuckers before. Possibly in the battle to get them into the box. He was soooo lucky he had a high AC. "Let's do this."

With the kind of cheerful security that came with only being successfully bit when you weren't wearing head to toe leathers and gloves, Cara tipped the box over towards the class, releasing the gremlins.

"Now, Roger. Can I call you Roger?" He didn't even pause for an answer. " Now, Roger, I totally get wanting to overthrow an evil government. But first we have to be sure it's the right thing to do. Roger, roger?"

ALL THAT FOR THE JOKE.

Ahsoka would appreciate the joke later, when she wasn't engaging in the age old Jedi coping mechanism of repression.

"But they're meatbags." Clearly enough reason to fight them! "Roger, roger."
magnusrushesin: (uhh... no?)

Jedi or Skywalker coping mechanism?

"Well... I'm also a meatbag." THE SHOCKING TWIST.

Couldn't it be both?

"Noooooooooooooo!" Where was their blaster? "Roger, roger."

Magnus reached over to very carefully pat her shoulder for that. "There there, Roger."
