Archery Workshop #1, 5/23, Danger Shop, Afternoon

[deadly_little]

As the students entered the Danger Shop, set up like a standard classroom for today, they were greeted by a diminutive, black-and-white Japanese girl in a silk robe, perched on a corner of the teacher's desk munching on a chocolate chip cookie. Next to her were a stack of handouts, a sign-in sheet, and a tray of assorted cookies from Jeff, God of Biscuits.

Written on the board behind the desk was, Sign in. Take a handout and a cookie. Direct any questions to the instructor. Behave. Or else.

Miho studied her students with a critical eye, trying to determine which of them were most likely to shoot one of their classmates by accident or try to take more than one cookie.

"Do you think the archery rules apply to outside of class, too?" Dawn asked, trying to figure out how much trouble she'd get into for shooting arrows into Stickbugs. "We could call it practice..."

Buffy brightened. "If I had a better aim, we could shoot arrows through their clothing so they got stuck in, like, trees or cabin walls or something."

"You could be like William Tell, but without the apple!" Dawn thought for a minute. "Oooorr...we could get revenge on them."

"Ooh, you have a plan?" Buffy didn't really do plans. She could improvise and she could follow them, but mostly, she was good at just acting.

Molly moved over to join them. "If you have a revenge plan, I'd love to hear it too."

"It's not really a plan yet," Dawn admitted. "So much as an idea involving the guys having to spend the day in cheerleading skirts."

"We could steal their clothes!" Buffy grinned and lowered her voice. "And Dean's pants."

Molly started laughing quietly. Picturing the guys in cheerleader skirts was too much. "We must do this," she said.

"I wonder if our ninja professor would give us sneakiness lessons?" Dawn asked, glancing over at Miho. "It's for a good cause..."

"Oh, but we need a distraction!" Buffy pointed out. "One that doesn't involve wearing no shirts and singing weird songs in the middle of the night."

"Hmmmmm, we may need outside help. They'll never trust anything that comes from us," Molly said.

"Is there anyone else we could drag into this?" Dawn eyed her boyfriend and roommate. "Hmmm. I told Dean he couldn't help, but maybe he can after all..."

"I bet Willow and River would help if I explained it to them. And maybe Alec," Buffy nodded, then grinned again. "He'd maybe help with Dean's pants too." She was totally urging that on as a favour to Dawn and not at all for any selfish reasons what so ever. Nope.

"We have to be careful though," Molly said. "We don't want anyone to go tell them what we're doing."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Maybe if we don't tell them the whole plan?" Dawn thought about that for a minute, "like, if we tell Dean his part, and River and Willow their parts, but don't tell them what anyone else is doing?"

"On a need to know basis?" Buffy watched Z-Cases. She totally had the spy-vocab down.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly nodded. "That would work."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

"So what are their parts?" Dawn took out a sheet of notebook paper. "And maybe Aeryn and Alanna and Rory are better at strategy?"

"I'm more of a Doing person than a Thinky person," Buffy admitted.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly frowned. "And I'm more of a think on your feet than plan ahead person. Maybe we should wait until we can get the whole cabin together."

"Okay," Dawn nodded, folding the paper into a square and putting it into her pocket. "Plan the demise of the evil stickbug later."
