Camp Shenanigans, Wednesday, June 12, 2019

[sith_happened]

Given the terrible, pounding headache of a bad feeling that this location was giving Anakin, he almost cancelled the shenanigans for the week. But then he decided that if people were really looking for a distraction, he should provide it.

Today's shenanigans were being held in the school auditoriam--Anakin would grant townies temporary access to the school building in order to keep the students from wandering further from the dorms than absolutely necessary--and seemed to be revolving around several thousand ballpit balls in the center of the auditorium.

And laundry baskets.

And scooters.

"Welcome to Sentient Lifeform Hungry Hungry Hippos!" Anakin yelled through his megaphone. "Everyone will be divided into four teams. You will then pair up into beings on their stomach holding the laundry baskets and people pushing them by their legs. Every team will cycle through all of their players. The team with the most balls at the end wins! Come pick up your t-shirts!"

Because of course there were t-shirts.

TEAM SALMON
Fjord
Lana
Aeryn

TEAM BURNT UMBER

And....Go!

[sith_happened]

Hopefully without colliding with each other, but if you got inspired by lacrosse and want to cross-check, Anakin's not going to stop you. Everyone gets a turn to be the steerer and the person on the scooter.

[RNG declares TEAM URINE victorious, followed by TEAM SALMON, TEAM OLIVE and then TEAM BURNT UMBER.]

Round One

[sith_happened]

TEAM SALMON: Fjord pushes Lana
TEAM OLIVE: Kitty pushes Mitsutada
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Wayne pushes Shuri
TEAM URINE: Peter pushes Iris (Ino)

[OOC: RNG says that SALMON gets the most, followed by OLIVE, BURNT UMBER, and URINE.]

[throughaphase]

"All right, ready?" Kitty asked.

This was going to be weird.

Re: Round One

[built_fjord_tough]

"Awright," Fjord drawled, looking at the whole... situation. "This doesn't seem too hard. I just push you around, you catch the balls? Where the hell's the challenge?"

Fjord didn't know it yet, but he'd someday be very accomplished at gathering balls.

Re: Round One

[howareyanow]

"Right, then, Shuri," Wayne said, with a nod and perhaps even the start of a grin because it was just proven now that they worked pretty well together (and they hadn't gotten to their other round, yet), "pitter-patter, let's get at 'er."

[[now in the right round, smh]]

Re: Round One

[intraspective]

"This is weird as hell," Iris said, as her hair braided itself up around her head. "Way, way weirder than the shit goin' on outside."

Round Two

[sith_happened]

TEAM SALMON: Aeryn pushes Billy
TEAM OLIVE: Paris pushes Kanan
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Rosa pushes Beaker
TEAM URINE: Sidon pushes Juillenne

[RNG declares BURNT UMBER triumphant, followed by OLIVE, SALMON, and URINE.]

Re: Round Two

[revengenotebook]

"Let's go, let's go, time's wasting!"

Paris took this stuff entirely too seriously.

Re: Round Two

[can_be_more]

"All right, we're winning this," said Aeryn.

They were not winning this.

Re: Round Two

[legionqueen]

Jules got herself situated on the scooter and glanced back at Sidon. "Ready?"

Re: Round Two

[died8yearsago]

See, the thing is...Rosa actually liked Beaker. Rosa thought Beaker was hilarious.

If she was having nothing to do with Beaker directly.

"Well, this should be fun."

Round Three

[sith_happened]

TEAM SALMON: Amaya pushes Ben
TEAM OLIVE: Hera pushes Summer
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Sabine pushes Nina
TEAM URINE: Okuyasu pushes Liam

[OOC: RNG says URINE wins, followed by OLIVE, SALMON, and BURNT UMBER]

Re: Round Three

[handystand]

Okuyasu was so tempted to use The Hand to just make all the balls come toward Liam.

But he wasn't going to, because given the hectic action, there was waaay too good of a chance he might accidentally erase someone's arm or something.

"Okay, this part should be easy," he said, because he was pretty buff for his age. "Ready?"

Re: Round Three

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Oh, we've got this one," said Summer, giving Hera a grin before getting settled on the scooter. "You can pilot anything! Right?"

Very good friends was probably not exactly on the list of things Hera would ever expect herself to be piloting, sure, but if there was anyone Summer was going to trust with the task of not running her into people, it would be her.

Re: Round Three

[special_rabbit]

"I'd say this'll be at least a little easier than pushing the Crumbler around," Amaya noted, giving Ben a nod and a faint smile. She pushed up her sleeves (which were already tied up, shh) and adjusted her gloves. "Though maybe just as dangerous. You ready?"

Re: Round Three

[bookbeltof_love]

"Saaaaaaabiiiiiiiiiine!!!!!!!!!!!! Have you ever played this before???????????"

Because Nina had not. Not even a little. Though it was hilarious to watch!

Round Four

[sith_happened]

And now we switch!

TEAM SALMON: Lana pushes Fjord
TEAM OLIVE: Mitsutada pushes Kitty
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Shuri pushes Wayne
TEAM URINE: Iris (Ino) pushes Peter

[OOC: URINE wins again! (God, worst color), followed by BURNT UMBER, OLIVE, and SALMON.]

Re: Round Four

[built_fjord_tough]

"And switch," Fjord mused. "Right, after that showing we had in round one? We got this."

Re: Round Four

[throughaphase]

"Still weird," Kitty said, at the same time totally ready to get in hippo position.

(Not dirty?)

Re: Round Four

[howareyanow]

....riiiiiiight.

If the deep rumbling growl in the back of his throat as he frowned down at the scooter wasn't any indication, Wayne was...not fond of this twist of fate.

He'd complain about it, too, except, that, really, it was only fairrrrr...

Re: Round Four

[intraspective]

"Let's see if we can win this!" Iris said, determined to at least do better than they'd done in the first round. "Now that we've done it once it ought to be easy, right?"

Round Five

[sith_happened]

TEAM SALMON: Billy pushes Aeryn
TEAM OLIVE: Kanan pushes Paris
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Beaker pushes Rosa
TEAM URINE: Juillenne pushes Sidon

...these will go badly.

[OOC: RNG declares OLIVE the winner, followed by SALMON, URINE, and BURNT UMBER.]

Re: Round Five

[uncertain_dume]

"Okay, now you get to see how fast we can go," Kanan said, gesturing for Paris to do her thing. "Chop chop, slowpoke."

You tell a Jedi to hurry up? Brace yourself, Paris, because this was going to be a wild ride.

Re: Round Five

[in_sidon_we_trust]

".....oh."

Sidon looked a bit warily at that very small scooter, considering his very large self, and then passed a downright apologetic smile toward Juillenne. "Well, this should certainly be interesting!"

Good luck with pushing seven and a half feet of pure Zora muscle around there, Jules. But compliments to the scooter manufacturer for the durability of their product!

FINAL ROUND

[sith_happened]

PUSH PUSH PUSH!

TEAM SALMON: Ben pushes Amaya
TEAM OLIVE: Summer pushes Hera
TEAM BURNT UMBER: Nina pushes Sabine
TEAM URINE: Liam pushes Okuyasu

And the final result is TEAM URINE victorious, followed by TEAM SALMON, TEAM OLIVE and then TEAM BURNT UMBER!
