Weapons 101; Tuesday, First Period [07/30].
Sure. With the Danger Shop, Amaya figured she could easily bypass the whole 'all my weapons are hammers and flowers right now' thing with a little bit of programming. But, if she was really honest with herself, she felt that this week was offering them a very unique opportunity to explore a weapon a bit more unconventional that she'd honestly not have thought of before but was definitely already making some plans for. Plus, she felt it would be a lot of fun.
Diaz didn't think so. Diaz thought the whole idea was stupid, but, well, this wasn't really Diaz's class, now, was it? She was just there to help. And Diaz could do whatever she wanted for her class later in the week. This one was all Amaya.
Which meant...
"Shells!" She beamed as she held one up almost proudly, because she'd stomped this one her very self and it was way more fun than it had any right to be. "Now, I'll be honest with you all, I have absolutely no experience using shells as weapons, which means we're learning about this one together. Also, that means I don't have a whole lot about the history of using shells as weapons, especially since this week is the first week I've ever heard of it, but that's all the more reason to take some time and really get to know how to use them and see what kind of damage they can do.
"The design is surprisingly aerodynamic," she offered, tracing a finger along the curve of the shell and the bottom of it, "great airfoil, which means the air is going to pass faster over the top of the shell than under it, resulting in a greater pressure from below and less drag, and the holes where the turtly thing used to be creates some interesting airflow, as well. And it's hard," she knocked on it sturdily, grinning faintly at the hollow sound it created, "so you know if you get enough force behind this thing, you can do some real damage!
"How much damage?" she asked. "Well, let's find out! Today, we're going to experiment a bit and figure out how to use these things effectively in a variety of ways....err...well, it's mostly just throwing and kicking, but Detective Diaz and I will go over how to do either of those things effectively, and we'll spend some time practicing. And, of course, we're all learning together, so if you've found another way to use these shells as weapons, we'd love to add your contributions.
"If there aren't any questions," she nodded, grinning, gave her shell a little toss, "we'll just go ahead and get started."

It's Super Mario RPG, I'm reasonably certain he'd understand.
