Was Anakin using his pixelated little lightsaber to take out flying fish while everyone arrived in the park?

Of course he was!

Was he taking the fact that flying fish showed up on his class day a little personally? Well, Anakin. So also yes.

Were there weird blocks to jump on, strange question marks floating in the air and wandering free-moving flying duck-mushrooms? Absolutely. This week was weird, everyone.

"So we're just going to...go with what the island has given us," Anakin said into the megaphone, "including weird floating pieces of rebar you can jump on! We're going to do this...obstacle course level around the park in teams of four," because everything was about teams, of course, "and the first team through wins!"

He paused to jump on top of a giant flying fish, which...made it smaller. "Watch out for the fish. Listen for your names!"

And get your colored t-shirts, of course!

"Meep meep meep," Beaker said, putting his shirt on over his labcoat. "Meep meep MEEEEEEP," he added, flailing at a flying fish.

"Hey, Beaker," said Rosa, lifting her chin after taking a moment to make sure he was just flailing and that he was fine and to do a quick assessment of her team and feeling...not the most confident about it. Sabine, she knew was completely competent, no worries there. And herself, too, obviously. But Beaker was just a big wild card and she did not have a good feeling about whoever this new guy was.

"Do you think it would be cheating if you just grabbed onto one of those fish and held on the whole time through the course?"

That very reasonably suspect new guy just so happened to look a little stricken right now...as much as his pixel-rendered face would allow, anyway. He felt a bit lied to, if he was honest, since Summer-chan had told him that not all of these were like the scavenger hunt last week, and she was right, he supposed, but this seemed like even more work than that had been.

"Can we all just try that?" he asked, but it didn't take long before his stricken expression went for something a bit more suave after looking Rosa over a bit. "Or," he offered, leaning in Rosa's way, "we could just leave this all to the kids and find something better to do with our time ♥."

"Meep meep meep," Beaker said, judgmentally.

"Yeah," said Rosa, "what he said."

She had no idea what Beaker had said. But it sounded judgey...even if a whole lot nicer than what Rosa was going to say.

"But we're wasting time," she said crossly. "Blackstone's been kicking my butt up and down the park all this summer, so we've really got to get it together for this one, you guys."

By 'you guys,' she clearly meant herself and Sabine, because...

...shit.

She should just go congratulate Blackstone for beating her again now, shouldn't she?
