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

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...

"Thanks, Doctor." Jack beamed at him. "She's the one who told me about the assignment, so I'm sure she'll be happy to share with me."

"She's a very nice girl," the Doctor said. "Don't worry about the absence at all, Jack. Glad you're back to health."

"Isabel's wonderful. And me too. All that time in bed, wasted on being sick. It's just not right."

"Very true," the Doctor said. "I'm sure you'll be able to make it up somehow."

"Don't worry." Jack looked distinctly smug. "I've already started."

"That's the Jack Harkness I know," the Doctor said, smiling. "Now go on, get yourself into the activity, please."

Jack raised an eyebrow at the Doctor's words, but he grinned and took himself off to talk to an alien, without asking for details. He wasn't sure he wanted to know.
