"Good morning, everyone!" Anakin called through his bullhorn. "Welcome to another fun-filled team-building activity!"

Is everyone excited? No? Ahhh, you're learning.

There were laundry baskets out, along with scooters, and roughly 3,000 plastic balls in the center of the blacktop that totally existed, shhh.

"Today we're playing Hungry, Hungry Hippos," Anakin announced. "Without actual hippos."

Which needed to be pointed out around here. "Because they are mean and not into team sports."

Because he'd called a few zoos to find out.

"We'll have three teams today, of six members each. One member each round will lay stomach down, clutching the laundry basket. The second team member will use their legs to push them into the balls at the center of the arena."

Blacktop. Whatever.

"The team with the most number of balls at the end of six rounds win."

"Listen for your names and retrieve your shirts:

"But this is for the glory of Team Whamp, whatever a whamp is," Shuri pleaded.

"Whamp is nothing. It's made up." All language was made up, Danny.

"I pushed Sidon around," Shuri said, pointing to Sidon on the wiiiiild chance that Danny had missed allllll of Sidon. "And I did it without any of this whining."

Re: Round Two

HE HAD SUCCESSFULLY REPRESSED THAT UNTIL NOW, SHURI.

"I'm not whining." He whined. Whinely.

Re: Round Two

[scoffs_at_tradition]

"You are very definitely whining," Shuri told him. "And you a grown man."

She earned points for not qualifying that.

"Fine. Let's just make this fast."

Re: Round Two

[scoffs_at_tradition]

"That is the point, yes," Shuri said archly.

Re: Round Two

[hatesparadise]

"Get on the stupid buggy," Danny sighed. He regretted coming her already.

Re: Round Two

[scoffs_at_tradition]

"You're good at driving, right?" Shuri checked, hopping onto the scooter thing.
