Summer Games [Wednesday]
A fully grown Anakin Skywalker was back in his normal spot in the park, megaphone in hand. In addition to the normal bleachers, the park had a number of tables set out with an inordinate amount of craft sticks and hot glue guns.
More worryingly, there was a giant bullseye spray-painted onto the grass.
"Welcome back!" Anakin said, absolutely blustering past the part where last week he'd been 17 years old with a deeply regrettable haircut. "Today you will be building catapults out of craft sticks and glue! It must be capable of propelling a meter tall object towards that bullseye--" he pointed to the grass helpfully. "Whichever team comes closest to hitting the buillseye gets to keep the fish for the week. Do not tank on purpose just because you don't want the fish!"
He glared at everyone to make his displeasure known about that. "You have an hour and a half to work on and complete your design! Please listen for your name to know which group you belong to! Group One: Peter, Norman, Kitty, and Paris. Group Two: Hannibal, Liam, Astrid, and Kanan. Group Three: Sabine, Rosa, Jono, and Tip. Group Four: Zack, Ahsoka, Cristina, and Verity. Group Five: Steve, Bobby, Cara, and Miguel. Group Six: Sidon, Hera, Rey, Amaya, and Uma."
[OOC: EDITED TO ADD: There are also rubber bands, rope, buckets, cloth, macrame gremlin ensembles, and other moddable stuff hiding under the tables. I totally remembered. Really. Cough.]

Re: Arrive and Mingle!
Astrid made a thoughtful noise, focusing now specifically on the jewels, which also worked well for her tendency to focus on light and how it played on different shapes and materials, as she thought about another failed test, wondering if there was anyone on this island who didn't just buy into all the madness, or maybe most of them were actually just like her, they didn't really believe any of it, but they acted like they did because that was just easier than trying to fight it.
"Yeah," she said, with the same thoughtful tone as her hum. "I guess you're right."
Re: Arrive and Mingle!
"I generally am. Then again, you are free to ask him," Hannibal pointed out.
