Creative Weaponry; Monday, Second Period [08/31].
Instructions should have gone out oh so handwavily to the students to be meeting for their class in the danger shop, which she couldn't imagine would surprise anyone, and, when they got there, they'd find themselves on a long, dusty road winding through a somewhat trecherous looking passage with steep, rocky mountain walls on each side. Before the passage really narrows in, there were four small merchant wagons waiting, each pulled by smoll fat goats.
And Amaya at the opening of that passage, ready to go with her usual eager grin.
"Good morning, everyone," she greeted them brightly with a pump of her fist, "and welcome to your first day of Creative Weaponry. I know it's the start of the week, so you're probably not sick of introductions quite yet, but I noticed an awful lot of familiar names on my roster for this class, and I don't think any of you will be too terribly disappointed if we skipped it for this class and got right to the meat of it. We'll get to know each other pretty well through the course of the class, anyway. The concept is pretty simple, but the situations will not be. Each week, you'll be thrown into a situation where you'll need to get yourself a weapon and fast, but without any of the traditional thing you might think are weapons on hand. You will have other things, though, and the idea is to then make a weapon out of those things, and fight your way out of the mess! They may work; they may not! It's all about thinking quick on your feet, though, and see what works and what doesn't!
"If you have any questions, you'll get a chance to answer them before we get started, but first, I'd like you all to find a partner and pick a wagon. Now, we've got an uneven number, which means one person has to go it alone; if anyone wants to volunteer for going it alone, that's fine, too. But, partner up or stick it alone, pick a wagon, and we'll head on out to see what happens!"

"Maybe," he said, slowly. "Hopefully?"
...And maybe he would just, like, spend the next few days hiding and waiting to see if his mother came to eat him.

“Also, you’re enrolled in classes for this semester, so if nothing else, the school administration should have your back if she tries to make you go home,” Jules pointed out. And she meant that on more than just a bureaucratic level; the population of Fandom as a whole was always ready to throw down in general.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
Yes he was aware how stupid that was.
"...I'm pretty sure my brother Bob did that," Julius said. "But maybe...? Bob is her favorite."
If she ate him, the Heartstrikers would look their Clan Seer. And also, he'd know.
Unless he was just crazy, which was entirely possible.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
“So maybe he convinced her to let you have some more time!” she said brightly.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
...Look, familial cannibalism was a big part of their culture.
"Maybe?" Julius said, unable to keep himself from glancing up into the sky, a bit nervously.
No reason.

Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
Sure babe.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
Cam, too. You ever been side-eyed by a mountain cat before, Julius?
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
"I was a lizard for a really long time!" he insisted.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
HeartstrikerQuetz."I really don't think that's it at all," Jules retorted. She didn't know what it was about, but she knew 'lizard instincts' was bullshit.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
"So, uh, what about this class assignment, huh?"
SMOOTH, HEARTSTRIKER. SO SMOOTH.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
"So. The green wagon, then?" she asked with a smirk.
Re: Partner up and Pick a Wagon - Weaponry, 08/31.
"Green wagon sounds great," he said cheerfully.
