All right, it's time to reevaluate things. We're not going to have a repeat of last night's debacle again.
For anyone who is new to the area, I'm Rose Tyler. I've been here in Lawrence for nearly two years now. I've trained as a Hunter, though I don't do it on a regular basis, and I've also been taking some of the self-defense classes.
What self-defense classes? Well, I'm glad you asked. Here at the Complex and at a couple of places around town, we offer various classes in how to defend yourselves against demon attacks, as well as attacks in general. Jo Harvelle-Shurley offers classes in knife and gun training at the Roadhouse for instance (eat and drink free for the displaced, as a gentle reminder!). Over at the city's Youth Center (run by yours truly), you can get training in swordwork and archery from those two guys from 12th Century Nottingham (nope, not kidding, if you're new it may take some time to sink in), Robin Hood and Sir Guy of Gisborne.
What we need, however, is more teachers and more knowledge of the lessons available to you. More people willing to guide. What I'm offering is a 'Welcome to Lawrence' type class. Learn the layout of the city, how your amulet works, how to protect your home, where everything available for the displaced is located, and, most importantly, who's offering which classes.
I think it might also be important to have someone teaching the proper pronounciation of the exorcism and other Latin blessings and curses we may need (looking at you, Andrew Wells!), and people who want to teach on any one specific creature that we may encounter. I know we all look at Peter Vincent as our resident vampire expert, and I also refer to Elena Gilbert as the ones in her world tend to be different.
Basically, this is a call for volunteers. We will find you a place to hold your lessons, just ask. Also, if you're already running a class (even if I've already mentioned you), please comment so we know who is still here and who we can look to for it.
Now, back to deciding what I want for my bauble wish thingie.
