Summer Games: Wednesday, The Park [morning]

[sith_happened]

"Good morning!" Anakin yelled into the megaphone from the small platform he had erected in the park. "Students, please listen for your names and find your partner or partners as your name is called: Sidon and Aloy; Jason and Rey; Bobby and Paris; Ahsoka and Uma; Theron and Peridot; Astrid and Norman; Tip, Sabine and Beaker."

Once the students were in place, Anakin held up a sheaf of paper in his hand. "Today, with the help of the proprietors in town, we're conducting a Scavenger Hunt. You have a very long list: You must find 15 of the items from that list and either take a picture or video of yourselves completing the tasks. Whoever completes their 15 in the shortest amount of time will win the coveted, terrifying, singing fish," he said, holding his hand out for it to fly to him. It was still shrieking Sabotage as it flew, but now it also rained confetti on anyone close enough to be in its flight path. As Anakin held it, it treated the entire group to holographic footage of Theron being chased by a Roomba.

You're welcome, Theron.

"Right," Anakin said slowly. "Someone come take this thing from me as quickly as possible. On your marks, get set, go."

#18: Trooper Station

Convince a Trooper to take off his helmet, and then take a selfie wearing said helmet.

The Troopers were normally loathe to part with their helmets, but Liam had briefed them on today's activities, and since it was "educational", they were willing to go along with it.

Although Liam had had to reassure them several times that the students would indeed be giving the helmets back.

Sure, the troopers here weren't bad guys, or whatever, but that didn't mean Sabine had to be happy about them being around.

"I can get the helmet, but I don't want be the one to wear it," she said, looking for volunteers.

Someday she'd end up wearing stuff like this to sneak into places, but that day wasn't today, and she definitely didn't feel right being photographed in it.

Tip shook her head. "No way is that thing going to fit over this hair."

"Meep meep meep!" Beaker volunteered eagerly, waving his hand.

"Thank you," she said, and walked over to one of the troopers.

It meant being nicer and maybe a little perkier than usual, explaining what they needed and why, they'd give it right back, promise. She even laughed once or twice about it.

And after a minute or so, she came back with the helmet for Beaker to put on.

"Meep meep meep," Beaker said from deep inside the helmet, immediately running into a nearby wall.

He had skillz.

"Okay, maybe don't do that," Sabine said, moving closer for the picture, and because she had Plans.
