Cutthroat Games, Monday, June 10, 2019
The class was on a field today. Granted, that field was in the Danger Shop because wow were they not holding class outside today.
"In case you haven't noticed yet, it's terrible out there," Aeryn greeted them, lacrosse stick in hand. "We decided on today's topics to give you practice at hitting people with sticks."
They were helpful!
"It's a real game!" Anakin said, sounding far too excited about this. "It's called lacrosse."
It didn't actually involve hitting people on sticks on purpose. Mostly.
"You will put on the appropriate safety gear-" Always a good sign! "-and separate into two teams," Aeryn continued. "Two players will face off to get the ball, using these sticks. You are not allowed to use your hands to touch the ball unless you are the goalie. Your objective is to get the ball in the other team's goal. This also means you can body check another player, or stick check them."
Aka hit with sticks. Not "on purpose."
"Aeryn gets to play with you today," Anakin said helpfully.
She would definitely hit them with sticks.
"Janet, Bobby, Entrapta and Theron, you're in red. Lana, Sidon and Billy, you're in blue and you have me," Aeryn said. Congratulations, Lana, Sidon and Billy: you would not be hit with sticks!
"I will referee," Anakin said.
He might hit all of you with sticks.

Re: Play!
Well, she'd do the best she could, regardless.
Re: Play!
"Am I to understand," he tilted his head thoughtfully, "that the goalie is the one intended to guard the goal? If so, may I propose that I offer my services to that particular task? Running will never be my strong suit, and, while I am quite good at hitting things with sticks, I daresay I shall block more of the goal than anyone else simply by existing near it!" He had to laugh, squaring his shoulders a little in case anyone missed the whole point that Sidon = tall! "I think it would be an excellent post for me." He pumped his fist, rallying the troops. "What say you, Blue Team?"
