[Being from the second jump, Heather's been dealing with this headache bullshit for a longer than she'd like. Consequently, she looks like crap - if crap that's had an idea it's really excited about. Red eyes accentuated by dark rings, a smear from a nosebleed that got a very cursory cleanup (because who cares when you're only going to have another in half an hour?), and a jittery sort of energy that belies her tiredness.]

Anybody remember Mattie Ross? Cool kid. Braids, hat, very serious. She tried this thing when she was here with setting up a school and I figured - seems like there are more kids around now than there have been in a while, maybe it's time we start that up again?

I helped out last time. It was good. Thing is, I don't know anything about teaching and I have a pretty limited skill set. I'm gonna need a lot of help. And what I was thinking is we could set it up so it's relevant to here. Give the kids a grounding in the skills we need here, so like - I'm in agricultural, I can give a crash course in how to keep things running so we can all keep breathing. And maybe someone from medical can come and teach basic first aid, someone from security to show 'em what to do when everything gets all dangerous the way it likes to.

I know there's a lot going on. Headaches and blood and voids and people from off the ship. I figure that just means it's more important than ever that everyone knows how to take care of themselves. So let me know if you feel like you could help make this work. Or hell, if you wanna come and you've got ideas about how we should do it. Don't let the grownups set all the rules, that's like a guaranteed bad time, right?

[.... oh my jesus]

Can I teach something, too?! Even if I'm learning stuff?!

Can I teach people how to throw monsters?!

[altercate]

[ hOLY SHIT ]

If Heather says you can. Throwing monsters is probably useful.

[throwsdown]

It's so super useful, I promise! Pinky promise.

'Cus if you throw them, it hurts, and they'll stop stop if you throw 'em long enough!

[and hard enough

lol givin monsters brain injuries nbd]

[altercate]

What kind of monsters? The ones you find up here, or ones from where you come from?

[throwsdown]

Both. If they're bad, they gotta be throwed.

It's my rule.

[altercate]

You better make sure you have help, if you're throwing things.

[ what is this small child capable of what is happening ]

[throwsdown]

[He hums, kicking his feet.]

I try to have help! But sometimes the ship does bad things.

Real bad, like makes monsters come out, or gets us lost...

[altercate]

I know. Have you been lost?

[throwsdown]

[He nods.]

Lots. The ship likes to make us lost...

It's a mean ship.

[altercate]

Do you know what to do when that happens? Has Heather told you what to do?

[throwsdown]

Um... I, um. I be careful and call her! And try to find help if it's too hard to find a way out!

[DO I PASS]

[altercate]

Right. Call Heather, or you can call me. If you can't get her on the phone.

[throwsdown]

I will!

And you can call me if you need help, too!

[altercate]

It's a deal.

[ lbr derek will never call and have takeshi run after him into a dangerous situation. stay safe little man :c ]
