Exit Strategies, Monday, Period 2
It was the first day of classes and Aphra was actually there on time, and looking somewhat engaged, it was a new semester miracle!
"Hey kids, which is all about getting out of places you don't want to be, like this class for example. To which the answer is make it through the semester in one piece, easy." Look, Aphra thought she was funny. "Since this is the first class, it's time for introductions. We'll start things off pretty simple, name and why you're here.
"I'll go first! I'm Doctor Chelli Aphra, and I'm here because in my long career as a rogue archeologist -" which was totally a real career, "- I've been in numerous death defying escapes and dangerous situations involving everything from rival scholars, bad bosses, rebels, criminals, and ex-girlfriends. Many of them at the same time! And experience has taught me that while smooth talk and high explosives can get you out of most sticky situations, it pays to know which to use when, so now I'm here to share my wisdom with you all."
She pointed at a random student. "You next!"

She swallowed.
"Well," she tried, "I guess every occupation's going to have its hazards..."
And she better be sure to pay close attention to this class more than ever now!

"That's the spirit!"
