SHENANINGANS, Wednesday, May 13th, 2020
Good morning, Fandom! It was time for the start of the third annual Summer Shenanigans, and Anakin had been secretly prepping for this since last year! (If you think that means he had a stockpile of intensely ugly t-shirts, YOU WOULD BE RIGHT. Give yourself a prize.)
There were bleachers set up for watching the events, food vendors hoping to get you to eat a variety of things that may or may not have any business being deep-fried and put on sticks, and big screens showing various parts of the island, which was definitely a hint that the games today weren't just centered in the park today.
"WELCOME!" Anakin yelled through his bullhorn at the appointed time.
Yes, he knew how to use a bullhorn. He just preferred to make it boom and squeak like that because he was kind of mean.
"Today you will be put into four teams of seven," he said, "and you will be conducting an obstacle course around the island! When your name is called, please collect your t-shirt and briefly say hello to your team."
And complain about your t-shirt color names. Pretty in Spring Turquoise wasn't close to being turquoise and the rest of them were pretty much the same color with different names, so excellent quality control there, Anakin.
"Then you will spread out to the appointed areas. I will shoot off a flare that Beaker--" Beaker meeped and waved, "--had absolutely no part in testing, and that will be your signal for the first group to begin their task. Fastest team back to the park here wins."
There was a pause.
"You win nothing but bragging rights because we've all learned from the fish incident two years ago. If you're new, well, just trust us. No one needs to win a fish." He coughed. "Anyway! Names! Listen up!"

Arrive and Mingle
Re: Arrive and Mingle
She also nabbed some popcorn to nibble on as she waited to see who'd show up and who'd be surprised to hear their names.
Re: Arrive and Mingle
What on earth was going on?
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Had Cait been hiding up in a tree to avoid the goats?
Cait had totally been hiding up in a tree to avoid the goats.
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Re: Arrive and Mingle
And maybe a curious look at what exactly was going on here.
Re: Arrive and Mingle

Re: Arrive and Mingle
And then his name had been called.
"...Me?" he asked, blinking.
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Re: Arrive and Mingle
He felt since it was the first week, though, it would start out pretty low-key.
Fuck. He hoped so, anywhey.

Re: Arrive and Mingle
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Maybe it wouldn't be too bad, what with it being the first week and all?
Re: Arrive and Mingle
She was not, however, looking forward to doing the gremlin one again. She was sort of hoping maybe they'd skip that one this year, nit she knew that was Highly Unlikely.
Re: Arrive and Mingle
Would he regret this move? Possibly.
Teams Assemble!
These were totally real colors, don't complain to Anakin about it.
Pretty in Spring Turquoise!
Still, she was going to toss it on, her hair pulling itself out of the t-shirt as she did so.
It looked pretty silly over her suit. Oh well.

Lake of Aluminum Crab
"I'm started to wonder if I should bother even wearing my coat to half of these workshops and activities around here," she commented, as she worked on loosening her cravat and shrugging off her jacket yet again.

Fresh Eggplance!
No, Ulysses should not have been surprised. He'd spent an entire school year here, he knew signups or lack thereof meant nothing. He was still going to kind of gape his way through getting a shirt.
"'Eggplance' isn't even a word."

So hopefully Shuri, Wayne, Liam and Iris are all strong swimmers, or this could take a bit.

Give 'em a hand, everyone!

Okay, yes, he'd gotten pretty into the race. He'd really needed a distraction today.
