Contact Sports: Building Character (And Possibly...), The Preserve, 6th Period [7/21]

[weetinyreese.livejournal.com]

Kyle was in no way in charge of the class today. Calvin was. Why was really anyone's guess. If, after Calvin's in-depth (which in Calvin-speak meant half-assed) explanation about how Calvinball worked on this particular day in this particular room at this particular moment, anyone was completely confused then that was perfectly understandable.

It didn't mean everyone couldn't play though. There was the standard Calvinball equipment in a haphazard pile on the floor, listed as follows: a volleyball (the Calvinball), a soccer ball, a croquet set, a badminton set, assorted flags, bags, signs, a hobby horse, a bucket of ice-cold water, a water balloon and a book on poetry.

There were enough eye masks to go around for everyone and they were an expected part of the equipment.

Really, it was a simple game to play, or so Calvin claimed, since you had to make up the rules as you went.

[OOC: You heard the completely modded with permission kid. The rules, they are made up! More examples of Calvinbaaaaaaaaaaaall!]

Listen to the Explanation

It's a terrible explanation.

Ariel listened with thoughtful, narrowed eyes, trying her best to follow the explanation because all these sports were pretty new to her, anyway. But her expression started to take on a decidely suspicious light after a moment because waaaaaaait a second, it almost sounded like rules were being made up as they went along...

..and if that was the case, then this was awesome and she was already trying to construct a rule that just might involve having to kiss her.

...Roy didn't get it.

Play Calvinball!

Seriously, you make up the rules as you go along and the scoring is arbitrary. Run, jump, throw things, tackle, get physical and have fun!

Ariel decided she was going to start out with a badminton shuttlecock, since those were her new favorite thing in the world (after, of course, dinglehoppers and boys), and she was bouncing it on a sign with a number 10 on it, while she decided who was going to get a shuttlecock bomb straight for their head.

And there it went!

Did she know if she was doing it right? No.

Did she care? What do you think?

See one Availability Post (http://weetinyreese.livejournal.com/10022.html) as explanation for why the heck I'm posting this instead of Calvin who's supposed to be posting it for Anders.
