Teamwork Training and Combat Skills; Thursday, Second Period [10/10].
"You guys may have noticed," Gladio started class with a faint grin, "that we've been leaning pretty heavily on the communication concepts these last few weeks, which hopefully just really highlights for you how important we think good communication skills are for a team. And we still want to do a little something more with communication, but we also don't want you resting too much on your laurels in the combat part of all of this, so today? We're going to be playing a sort of communications guessing game....but with a twist."
"In this here bucket," Prompto lifted it up proudly, "is a bunch of various people, places, and things. You're going to pull out one of these random...well, prompts," excuse him a moment while he snickered at the word choice, "and then it's up to you to decide: you can either try to get the rest of the class to guess what your word is, but, you can only do so through charades and gestures and answering yes or no questions. No speaking beyond yes or no."
"Or maybe," Ignis allowed, "since sometimes the answer to a seemingly simple question can be surprisingly complicated."
"Especially if you're a pedantic asshole like some people in the room," said Gladio with a grin.
"Who shall remain nameless," Prompto added, as if no one really knew who they could possibly be talking about.
A pedantic asshole who was remaining nameless cleared his throat. "Are we talking about clear and precise communication?" he asked. "Or are we not?"
"We are! We are!" Prompto confirmed, barely holding back a snicker. "Anyway, we're getting off track. The point is, we're going to sort of do a charades sort of thing, you pick a word out of the bucket, and your teammates have two minutes to try and guess what that word is, and you're only allowed to use gestures or answer yes or no or maybe to questions. And, if your team fails to guess in those two minutes?"
"We unleash a few monsters on you guys to fight," Gladio said.
"So, yeah, you know," Prompto chuckled, "pressure's on! Get yourself armed up, and then we'll get started!"
