Constant Vigilance #4: Friday the 3rd, Morning. Serenity Cove.

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

Today, the class meets on the beach, to accomadate the student who has a bit of an aquatic problem at the moment. The Doctor set out beach blanket and towels, and has hauled the holoprojector out on a cart.

"Pass forward your requests I asked for, thank you. As I let you know, we're switching things around a bit. Vampires and werewolves will be at a later date. Today is simply 'Close Encounters of the Unattractive Kind'. Now, please remember, that it's not so much that I find these species particularly unpleasant, it's just we might as well show some of the more unsavory aliens out in the world. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that. I'll be taking questions today, but no lecturing today. It's called close encounters for a reason. You'll be talking to the projections, trying to gather what you can from them. Ask them whatever. Remember they can't actually hurt you, but please only antagonize them if you're being terribly clever about it. There is no assignment for next week. Time for you all to put on your 'first contact' thinking caps. The projector will be sending out three different aliens. Talk to at least one, please."

The Doctor smiled, then turned on the projector. Three forms appeared...

"Some criminals from my planet have," Hob said. "It was unfortunate."

"I am not aware of all the details," Hob said. "But I do know your teacher was able to stop them."

Isabel glanced towards the Doctor, "Good for him. So what do you do? What are your people famous for?"

"I am a janitor," Hob answered humbly. "My race is known as being peaceful, despite those of our kind who spread a different image."

"That's good. Most of the aliens I've met up till now haven't been that nice."

Hob smiled. "I am sorry to hear that, but I am glad that I give a good impression."

"Is there anything else you would like to know?" Hob asked.

Isabel's mind is unfortunately on the upcoming trip and it's dinner time. "No, that's okay. Thank you."
