Camp Shenanigans [Wednesday morning, May 8, 2019]
Beaker was putting the last of the balloons in place (so...floating away. Don't worry, he'll be fine in a second) on the bleachers that had been set back up in the park in the center of town. There were also a couple of big screen televisions set up so that the crowd could watch the action when the contestents (you lucky volunteers, you!) were outside the park.
It was also a warning to the contestants that this week's game would be taking them out of the park.
"Today, we will be doing a very quick tour of the island!" Anakin yelled into his megaphone. He didn't really need the megaphone--he just liked the way everyone would wince when he made it squeal. "You will be working in teams to complete a series of obstacles I've set up around town. Fastest team to complete the course does not win a fish."
At the blank looks from some of the newbies, Anakin explained. "Last year there was an plastic fish that attained sentience and attacked us at the end of the summer. It was a thing."
Well, "explained" if it also meant "in a way that absolutely did not make it Anakin's fault."
"Listen as your teams are called and where your assingments are! I will then give you ten minutes to get into place and then Beaker--where'd he go?"
Beaker waved and meeped from a tree.
"And Beaker will shoot off the starting pistol which is not a real gun, right Beaker?" Anakin checked.
Beaker meeped affirmatively.
"Well, we'll see how that goes," Anakin muttered.

Re: LEG 1
The little things like that mattered around here.
"So, are you any good at knots, Janet?"
Amaya knew she was great at them, of course, but, for her, this thing was mostly about the kids having fun, so she wanted to make sure Janet was able to get as much out of it as she might want instead of just taking charge because she knew she could.
