Ray went back to Nunavut briefly earlier today and discovered that the assembly was still waiting for the Finns to arrive. Given what the Sami contingent of Project Pohjola is supposed to be capable of, he figures that's a good reason not to start deploying just yet. He came back to Milliways rather than wait in the Ministry of Extraordinary Threats hangar, because honestly? Anywhere is warmer than northern Nunavut right now. Yes, even Antarctica- it's summer in the land Really Down Under.
He's out back at the moment, with his training drone, his lightsaber, and his proton pack. The way he figures it, he's got to be ready to use either at a moment's notice if reality rips open in the high Arctic, so if he can't dodge or deflect incoming drone fire with a nuclear accelerator on his back then he's probably going to get splattered by something hideous and tentacular back home.
For all that he looks like some kind of Force-blind fur-bearing mammal (hooray for 1930s winter survival gear) with a load of tech strapped to its back, he's still doing a pretty good job against the drone. Practice pays off after enough years at it.
He could probably be interrupted without catastrophic results.

"And make sure you get duck-and-cover down pat. Sometimes you can't outrun the blastwave, so the best you can do is take cover or protect your vitals."

Enzo nods, taking mental notes. The mun doesn't know what a sprite's vitals are, but they must have some somewhere.
"What else?" If the kid ends up specializing in demolitions, Dot will know who to blame.

"Generally a human who gets caught in an explosion winds up deaf as a post for at least a couple of hours afterwards," Ray says after some thought. "That might be something for sprites to bear in mind."

That's the only thing established in canon, actually. Braaaains..."Okay. Thanks!" What a fun little tutorial!
