"Welcome to another class," Anakin said, pointing at the now familiar world map. "Today we're going to Estonia, which is an extremely tiny country on this huge land mass that they give two different names for reasons I don't quite understand. Estonia falls into Asia. I think. Maybe Europe. They were involved in Eurovision, but so was Australia and that's its own continent."

Anakin was confusing himself.

"Anyway," he said, shaking his head. "Two tasks in Tallinn. Don't get killed."

Detour: Serve or Sling

[sith_happened]

Once you make your way to the Pikk Hermann Tower Gardens, you have the choice of Serve or Sling! Are you afraid?

It's been three weeks, so probably, huh.

In Serve, you make your way to a volleyball game being played in a bog, where you must score five points against the Estonian national volleyball player you are facing. Getting muddy and gross is completely guaranteed.

In Sling, you put on a super attractive pair of bogshoes and hike out into a different bog. You must use a slingshot to shoot enough vegetables at a target to collapse the table full of cabbages. Anakin would swear this was Very Traditional, but Anakin was lying his ass off.

Sure, this time last year Jason had been a star athlete and all... but football and volleyball were completely different sports. So yeah, it took a while to get those five points.

Kaylin got into a bit of a literal mud-slinging match with the volleyball player which held her up quite a bit. She didn't quite cause an international incident mostly because the onlookers were enjoying the mess.

Jyn went with Sling because flinging vegetables sounded more fun. She just envisioned the cabbages as Saw's head.

Ahsoka didn't particularly trust those shoes, so volley ball it was!

Which probably would have gone faster if she'd known the rules.

Ahsoka hated everything.

Hyacinthe had no idea what volleyball was, but was decent enough with a slingshot to make up for lost time.

Not a lot of lost time, but some of it anyway!

This seemed like a very stupid activity however. And not just because of the shoes.
