"Okay, it's been about over a week since anything freaky happened around here," Guy announced once people arrived. "And it's the last day of class for the term."

Those things may have been connected in some bizarre way that only players tiny blue aliens could understand.

"So, this'll be easy for you all. You're just gonna run laps around the gym." Yes. Easy. Weren't you all so glad to take this class? "I don't want to grade a final, so you're all not getting one. Plus, it's summer school."

Out of the kindness of his heart, folks! Really!

"Now get running."

"Yeah? Just... sitting and watching?"

Jim really couldn't see the draw. Where was the fun in sports if you weren't up and participating in them? He'd get squirmy and slip out halfway through a game if he wasn't allowed to run around, too.

Jake snickered. "Not everyone likes it," he assured him.

"Okay, good," Jim decided, picking up his pace just slightly all over again. "I mean, I was already worried that Earth was full of crazy, backwards people. If everyone enjoyed watching them more than actually getting out there and playing, I'd have to start really believing it."

"Oh, we're definitely full of crazy and backwards people," Jake snorted. "And just because you like watching a game, doesn't rule out you can't play it too. It's just that those pros would wipe the floor with most people. So it's a bit of a different level of playing."

"I guess," Jim mused. "I think I'd still try to take them on, though. A game's a game either way."

Watching just didn't strike him as any fun at all.

"You know, I can believe that," Jake laughed because the kid had just tried to keep up with him.
