Archery Workshop #2, 5/30, Danger Shop, Afternoon

[deadly_little]

The Danger Shop is set up like an outdoor archery field this week, with fifteen targets, fifteen bows, and fifteen quivers of arrows. The arrows, the students will find, are tipped with suction cups. Off to one side is Miho, lounging in a lawn chair with an umbrella. On the table next to it is the sign-in sheet. An incongruous freestanding blackboard is set up next to her, with the words Beginning Archery. Shoot the targets. Leave when you are done. written on it.

Miho gets up, takes up her own bow and a suction cup arrow, and demonstrates for the class by shooting at the first target in the line. Bullseye. Then she returns to her seat, picks up her glass of lemonade, and watches for any errors in form she'll need to correct.

Gwynn spent a great deal of time examining the arrow with the weird things at the end of it. She had never seen anything like these and she failed to see their function as anything useful.

On her first try, she hit the target, but her aim was off because of the weight difference between the suction cup arrows and the arrows she used on a regular basis.

Frowning, she spent a few shots getting used to the weird arrows and started making stance adjustments because of it.

Finally, she started firing with her usual accuracy and assurance.
