Exit Strategies, Monday, Period 2

[jedigrammarians]

Once more, Aphra was at the head of the classroom sim and looking like she had many regrets over teaching a morning class.

The sim itself was set up with two person tables which she directed the class to sit at. "Now there's a lot of moving parts that go into creating an exit strategy, some you can control, some you can't so today we're going to talk about the one you really, really can't, which is people. Today we're looking at the buddy system!"

Aphra waited a beat then pressed a control, and everyone suddenly found themselves hand-cuffed to the person they were sitting next to. It sim itself also changed from a classroom to a crashed shuttle (not on fire, for once, Aphra was working up to that). "Oh no, the prisoner transport crashed," Aphra declared dramatically. "Can you make it to the end of class without being recaptured?"

Sadly, Vi couldn't read narrative, and even if she could she wouldn't have been paying it any attention. "Well, hi."

"Hello," Tahani trilled. "I adore your hair. It's not a Kamilah reference, is it?"

No one knows who your sister is here, Tahani.

Vi liked Tahani's everything.

"Who's that?" She asked distractedly, completely forgetting to be suspicious of Aphra.

"No one at all important," Tahani said immediately, waving her hand. "She just has been going through a hair phase that looks a bit like yours."

"I've always had my hair like this," Vi said like there hadn't been effort or contraband involved in maintaining it.

"You're naturally that colour?" Tahani squealed. "How delightful!"

Kamilah would be so. jealous.

"Yeah, but I mean it's not like it's that unusual, it runs in the family."

Luckily they were saved from Vi trying to deflect any bashfulness or pivot from painful memories with ill-considered offers involving curtains and drapes by Aphra's lesson plan...
