Behind the Dorms, Tuesday Afternoon

Huh. No Arthur to be seen, which meant that Zack was going to step up to the Reserves-Leader-Plate again, grinning a little. He kinda loved taking charge! So what?

"So, since we're hopefully starting to get into the swing of things again, this week we're going to talk about our weapons. Again!"

Why not?

"Every weapon has strengths and weaknesses. My sword, for example, has excellent reach because of its size, but it sacrifices manoeuvrability as a result. An arrow is better for ranged attacks, but weather conditions like rain or wind might affect your aim. Some weapons might rust in certain weather. And being on an island, well, we're prone to that kind of weather, yes. So what we're going to do today is try to come up with one example of a shortcoming of our weapon of choice, and how we're going to account for it!"

Zack then motioned to a cardboard box over by the wall.

"And please, please take a bag of Oreo cookies with you when you go. For you, for a friend, whatever. I might have bought a few too many."

A few cases too many.

[The Reserves are, as always, open to one and all!]

Even with as many strategy meetings as she'd been in while she was home Tahiri had missed the Reserves. For one, there were cookies (and don't think she didn't take a bag of Oreos). For two, nobody yelled and pounded people on the back the way Admiral Kre'fey did.

Ever had an overly enthusiastic Bothan banging on the nearest convenient flat surface that just might be your shoulderblade while he yells about blowing things up?

Yeah. Tahiri didn't miss that.
