Finished Deliberation
With the finer details decided, we soon moved to the final notes.
“We’ll keep the pacing in mind, too,” Ryouko-san said as jotted down the last lines for her lesson, “If a team struggles with a challenge for too long, we’ll allow them a lifeline. Maybe a time penalty instead of making them finish it.”
The task was already made easier but I guess someone might still fail so Ryouko-san’s suggestion was still needed.
Orimura-sensei nodded. “That should prevent anyone from getting frustrated or feeling like they’re holding the team back.”
“What about a reward for the winner?” I asked, my tone deliberately playful.
“There you go again, shameless brat. You’re not participating and you’re already thinking about the reward.” Orimura-sensei rolled her eyes and shook her head.
“Well, it can motivate them, no?” I defended my suggestion by whispering close to Ryouko-san’s ear.
