Wilderness Survival - Week 1| Thursday Morning, A Clearing in the Woods

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto waited until the class finished marching into the clearing they'd been given *handwavey* directions to.

"First things first," she held up a large box. "At the start of each class you will take off your shoes and put them in this box. You will get them back at the end of class, if I believe that you have paid sufficient attention in class. Otherwise I get to keep them for the week. After you've done that I want you to introduce yourself to the class and say why you decided to take this workshop."

"Since this is the first class, I'd thought I'd start with something fairly simple. Fandom is filled with many unique and interesting animals, from the ducks and giant squid, to the dancing lemers and weetiny bunnies, to the minature giraffes and shy, retiring teal deer, to John Crichton. Some of these are harmless, others dangerous, still more tasty. Which is why, when lost in the wilderness, it's important to know what animals might be in your near vicinity. One of the best ways to do this is through tracking, the basics of which I will be teaching you today."

Callisto went on to give a very interesting and informative talk on tracking. It might even have drawn the attention of a few teal deer.

"Your assignment today is to split into pairs and identify which Fandom animal made the set of tracks I've assigned you.

"Good luck. You're going to need it."

He grinned again, glancing at Callisto as well - maybe to see if she was within earshot. "I think I might've gotten myself in the hotseat anyway," he said without apparent concern.

Janet snickered. "What'd you get on her bad side for?" she asked, having already gotten herself in trouble today.

"Being male in her vicinity, apparently," Alec said, shaking his head with a sigh.

"That might just be an unforgivable sin right now," said Janet, her voice full of sympathy. "I got her mad because I tried to tell her I don't belong on the cheerleading squad. Which I really, really don't."

"Why not?" Alec looked at her in surprise. "You're cute, you'd look good in a short skirt. And I'm on it too, so if you're going to say something about it being embarrassing, keep that in mind." He grinned at her, on the verge of laughing.

"I've been told I'm small enough to be tossed around particularly well, but really, I'm not the perky type," said Janet, grimacing at the mental imagery. "Though I appreciate being called cute." She tilted her head and studied Alec's figure for a minute. "You're going to look awfully silly in a miniskirt," she said, mock-seriously.

His grin widened. "No? I was told really short shorts, for the guys, but I think I could work a skirt pretty well."

Janet's brow furrowed. "You probably have the legs for either. But the shorts would work better." A grin spread slowly across her face. "At least you have a sense of humor. The cheerleaders at my last school didn't."
