Camp Shenanigans, Wednesday, May 22, 2019

If you thought a small thing like "the entire park being covered in water" was going to stop Anakin, well, you hadn't spent much time with him.

There were rafts scattered throughout the area, some decidedly more sturdy-looking than others. A giant one was holding up the normal risers but looked pretty tippy, so Anakin had lashed a few others to it with blankets if people decided against swaying quite that much today.

There were other floats scattered around in a pattern with giant galvanized buckets and folded baby blankets on them, too. Do you have a bad feeling about them? Because you should.

"Today," Anakin yelled through the bullhorn, "we are playing Blanket Balloon Toss! We will have four teams of seven." With matching horrifying t-shirts again. Anakin had gotten such a deal, you guys. "Working in pairs--except for the first person--you will catch water balloons in your baby blankets and then launch it to your teammates on the next float. The first team to get the balloon around the circuit wins."

You were all getting drenched.

"If you are not strong swimmers, I suggest you put on a pair of water wings. The floats were built by Beaker and might not be the robust things ever."

Meaning that one would definitely start sinking.

"Listen for your names, come get your t-shirts, and then get out to your designated floats!"

"You know," Keyleth said, the nervous quaver in her voice not abating at all thanks to Rosa's general demeanor, "speaking of wind I can give the balloon a little help there."

The class nickname wasn't baseless, okay?

Rosa took a few seconds to work that into her calculations.

"Okay," she nodded. "Let's do it. But you better not mess it up."

~~TEACHER OF THE YEEEAAAR~~

Keyleth laughed, loud and a little shrill because NO PRESSURE AT ALL REALLY, NOT FROM THE SCARY TEACHER.

"Mess it up? Noooooooo!" she said quickly, sounding a bit like she'd just inhaled helium. "I'm Air Ashari, it's what we do, it'll be fine!"

"Okay, okay," Rosa wasn't wincing at that tone or anything that she was pretty surprised she could even hear because she wasn't a dog, "whatever, Air Ash-wasting-time. Launch it!"

She'd had enough time to prepare; Rosa was going for it, doing her part in getting the balloon to fling up in the air with a shout of, "Don't screw it up, Blackstone!"

It was okay, she could yell at Amaya, they were friends.

Keyleth quickly cast a Gust cantrip, and she hadn't been lying: she was very good at it, no matter how much she thought she was fooling people into thinking she was more talented than she really was. It caught the balloon neatly and guided it on a nice, neat, even natural looking trajectory all the way over to the next float.
