Teamwork Through Meditation and Also Lightsabers, Tuesday morning

[sith_happened]

For their final class today, the Danger Shop looked like the break room of a capital ship if you were from their galaxy, or like a slightly gray, boring room to anyone else. "Sometimes you have to practice in less beautiful locales," Anakin began, gesturing around. "If you are about to head into battle, it's especially important to focus beforehand and this might be what your surroundings look like."
"Hopefully you'll never have to find out for yourself, but battles are chaotic and messy," Ahsoka added. "Being able to clear your mind and work in harmony with your compatriots can be the difference between life and death."

Anakin ignited his lightsaber--real, not a trainer today--with the casual ease of someone who'd done that gesture a thousand times. "Jedi work in partnership with at least one other Jedi in battle, sometimes with multiple Jedi. It's vital to quiet your mind to react to those around you," he said over the hum of the blue light of his weapon.

Ahsoka followed suit, and if you thought they were showing off, look, they weren't wearing cloaks to dramatically toss aside, so clearly they weren't. "It would be awkward to hit someone on your own side rather than the other."

Anakin nodded. "Pair up with the practice lightsabers and spar."

While your teachers continued totally not showing off.
