RETURN OF THE SHENANIGANS, Wednesday

[captainskullpoopl]

There was no Anakin for the usual Wednesday madness this week. Maybe because he was spending well earned time with his family. Maybe because he was tied up in a closet. Maybe because Deadpool was also now under the Disney MegaCorp umbrella and the monopoly of entertainment was well under way.

"That got kinda dark," Wade said, thinking it over. "Accurate, but dark. Anywho! I'm in charge, so there are gonna be a few changes that won't last past this week. But for this week, I'm a god."

Or something.

"It's maze time because that one hit movie that don't really remember. You know. Boy Katniss. But that's only because there's no Bowie here to make it a different movie. R.I.P."

It might have been the island (it was the island), it might have been Wade being very industrious last night, but there was now a mini laybrinth waiting for everyone to try out. Complete with moderately dangerous traps. No minotaur, though. They were hard to book.

"Now, I know Skywalker likes teams, but this shit? This is a free for all to the prize at the center."

Wade stared at them for a moment before making a shooing motion. "Go. C'mon. Get going. Shoo."

Fuuuck this holiday. I have so much work on my desk.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

Fjord... was not worried about Anakin's well being, nah. But he was a little bemused about the whole situation. A maze, huh?

Sure, that seemed easy enough. Traps? He ate traps for breakfast.

... Actually no, he did not eat traps for breakfast. That would be weird. He'd had a peach for breakfast.

So, same thing.

Re: Enter the Maze

[built_fjord_tough]

Fjord shrugged and made his way into the maze, no real plan in mind. Sure, he got himself turned around a few times, but that was sort of the point of these things, wasn't it? He just kind of rolled with it.

... And whenever he hit a dead end he didn't like, he climbed up and over. Fuck you, dead end.

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[built_fjord_tough]

"The fuck is this thing."

The fuck. Was that thing.

"And why is it singing at me?"

Poor Fjord. Missed all the fish excitement last year.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[myownface]

Eh, Skywalker was a Jedi. He'd probably be okay. And even if he wasn't, Sparkle's ability to nurse a grudge for half a decade was a talent he held dear.

So he was totally quietly rooting for you, Deadpool, one Canadian to another.

Re: Enter the Maze

[myownface]

"Sure, this is totally not at all a suspicious situation even a little bit."

As if it hadn't taken Sparkle long enough just to get to the park for this thing in the first place.

At the very least, his paranoia would keep him going slowly enough not to accidentally spring any traps? He had that going for him.

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[myownface]

Sparkle sulked a little about being third, but took one look at Fjord's prize and broke out in laughter.

Okay, okay, he could live with being only mostly best, that was fine.

Vette looked at the little mini labyrinth and gasped.

"Oh, please! Please let there be traps!"

She didn't even care about finishing this one before anybody else. Vette! Needed! Traps!

Re: Enter the Maze

[chirpchirpchirp]

Why would Vette care about being first out of here? She wasn't looking for the prize so much as she was taking random turns here and there, looking for traps to disarm as she went, giggling to herself every step of the way.

In fact, when she rounded one corner and realized she'd inadvertently found the prize, albeit later than like nine other people, she slumped a little.

"Aw."

Could she go back?

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[intraspective]

"Because we needed another maze!"

It was surprisingly hard to get around the island, and now they had a maze to wander through?

Iris was... Iris was actually okay with that, despite her words.

Re: Enter the Maze

[intraspective]

Iris did not use a ball of string (she, uh, would not even know to think of that) and sure she could have gotten out of it sooner, but it was fun, the prize was probably trash, and she really saw no need to rush...

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[intraspective]

"That's the best prize! You should have said!"

Shit, did Fjord really want it?

Could she steal it from him?

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[intraspective]

Iris was absolutely sidling over to Fjord.

"It's the best fish," she said, which wasn't an explanation at all. "It tried to murder us all last year."

And she wanted it.

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[built_fjord_tough]

Iris was being met with such a flat, mildly perplexed look at that.

"The fuck you say it did?"

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[intraspective]

"Well, maybe not this exact fish," Iris amended, studying the fish intently. "But it's definitely the same sort of fish."

Singing, stuck to a plaque, and all.

It was the greatest fish.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[special_rabbit]

There was...a bit of a considering pause once Amaya learned what they were doing with today's activity.

"You think it's too late," she asked, to no one in particular, hitching a thumb over her shoulder, "to head on back and get the Crumbler for this one?"

It was honestly a little surprising she hadn't brought the Crumbler with her to take care of whatever she ran into on the way here, but she had been having suprisingly good luck with this whole maze thing.

And it probably really was just luck, but she liked to think it was because the constantly growing and changing maze around them knew that she would have absolutely no hesitation in doing something exactly like pitting the Crumbler against them.

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[special_rabbit]

Coming out of the maze second, only to find Fjord had gotten there first and discovering exactly what the prize actually was, she definitely felt she had an obligation to throw in but will try her damnest not to mess up the other thread, "Zounds, Fjord, whatever you decide to do with that thing....don't. Just leave it alone. Just shove it in a closet if you have to to...but just...leave it alone."

It had to mean something if Amaya Blackstone was telling you to not go messing around with a weird little device, right? Right??

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto heard that, and Prompto probably shouldn't say anything, he should probably have some sense of self-preservation over here, and he tried, really, he did, biting his lip and bouncing in an effort to hold back any comments he might have to make, but, hey, he'd gotten what Nina thought about the glitterbomb into his system now, but hadn't had a chance to get a guage from Vette yet, so it was probably dumb of him to bring attention to it, but he just couldn't help it.

"Still hungry for more, then, I seeeeee," he said, smirking proudly, the lilt in his voice perhaps suggesting that more could certainly be arranged, but he wasn't actually going to say that part, because he knew his last one was completely brilliant and he did not have faith in himself to actually manage to pull off something even remotely as good any time soon.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[died8yearsago]

No. Nope. No way.

Rosa had had enough of mazes, thank you very much, so she was just going to quietly turn around and slip away and pretend she'd never been here at a--

--and there was another wall blocking her way. "Ugh!" she said, balling up her fists and about two second away from punching that wall, but, thankfully, she wasn't so fueled with rage that she thought that was a good idea...yet. "This maze crap is such bullshit!"

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[died8yearsago]

"Ugh!" Upon arriving to the center of the maze, Rosa had exactly the same thing she had to say at the beginning of this nonsense. "This maze crap is such bullshit!!"

Which she really only said because she was fifth; if she'd have won, she would have been singing a different tune. But fifth was crap, fifth was garbage, and fifth was especially bad because she'd clearly been beaten by Blackstone, and that was the biggest bullshit of it all!

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[built_fjord_tough]

Fjord stared at it for a moment. And then raised an eyebrow a little.

".... Sure."

He wasn't buying it.

Silly man.

Re: Celebrate Your Victory!

[built_fjord_tough]

"Why do I get the feeling I've just been handed some sort of dangerous weapon I don't completely comprehend?"

This would be the story of his life, really.
