The Kludge's Guide to the Universe | Dangershop, Wednesday Afternoon (Week 2)
Wednesday afternoon once again found Harper in the dangershop, with his feet up and a can of Sparky.
After the class had signed in and found places to sit or lean, Harper stood up. "All right, last week we studied team-building. Today comes the important collaterally to team building, a little thing I like to call threat recognition."
"Now you don't want any team you might build to be made of people who'll throw you to the Magog the first chance they get. Unfortunately, in this big, bad, universe, people don't go around wearing signs proclaiming their back-stabbing abilities. In fact they'll go to great lengths to hide it until they can take advantage of you. For example the hot babe charmed by your wit might really be a phase-shifting, tesseracting, servant of evil, or your ship's avatar's slimy new robot boyfriend might really be a psychotic High Guard warship, intent on wiping out all spacefaring life from the universe." Harper did not sound the least bit bitter of those two examples. Really.
"Clearly, if you want to survive, and not end up dead or worse, you have to find a way to uncover the level of threat someone poses to you," Harper said. "Which brings me to the lesson."
Harper fiddled with his remote and three people appeared at the front of the room.
The first was a furry, batfaced creature, with nasty sharp pointy teeth and large claws, dressed in a robe.
The second was a tall, muscular man with a stern expression, laden with weapons. An astute observer would have notice three nasty looking bone spurs sticking out of each forearm.
The third was…purple. And bouncy. With a forked tail.
"These are Rev, Tyr, and Trace," Harper said, pointing at each in turn. "Your job today is to determine who exactly out of these three is the most dangerous, and why."

Re: First Impressions (Kludge - Wk2)
Oh, and thank you for worrying about me.
Re: First Impressions (Kludge - Wk2)
Nothing. That's pretty much what happened. We got drunk, annoyed Veronica and sung a song.
You're not mad?
Re: First Impressions (Kludge - Wk2)
What song? Yes and no.
Re: First Impressions (Kludge - Wk2)
So what's winning? The yes or the no?

Not that she'd always done well at that, but that was none of Cam's business at the moment.

He tried to look cute as he passed the note back, hoping it would help his case.
