Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, June 17, 2020

[sith_happened]

There was a catwalk set up in the center of the park today. Were you worried? Because you should be worried.

"In an effort to appease all of the animals on the island so they don't invade the next graduation," Anakin said, glaring at the representatives of said wildlife, "everyone, not just gremlins, will be a part of our fashion show."

He gestured at the tables full of fabric, yarn, cardboard, flowers, and other objects that could be turned into outfits if you squinted and tried really hard and were also trying to dress an alot. "You must make cohesive outfits for your animal based around a theme that each team will be given as their name."

The ugly t-shirt shipment had been delayed this week, unfortunately.

"You have several handwavey hours to get this finished and then we will all enjoy the outfits."

Well. Anakin would enjoy the outfits.

"Listen for your names!

"I should!" Magnus said like that was the greatest idea he'd heard all week. "I need to get my DEX up for some sick maneuvers. Thanks for the idea... Mae? It's Mae, right? I'm really bad at remembering names sometimes."

But he wanted to be nice to the Twitter user who tweeted about the show. Word of mouth was the best form of advertising after all.

"Yup, it's Mae." She kicked her feet against her perch again. "I like your costume."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"Why, thank you. I got my shoes off a dead guy." He felt she'd appreciate that.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"COOOOOL!" Mae cheered. "Everyone should wear more costumes."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"You know what? They should," Magnus said as an idea struck. "We should have a Midsummer Solstice party! It's like Halloween, but cooler. Way more deep fried foods for one."

His canon made its own rules.

Mae's (already very large) eyes went huge.

"That is the greatest idea I have ever heard."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"It'll be great! We just gotta con someone into cooking or something. And put up flyers."

He vastly underestimated how to plan a party, but okay.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah," Mae said, nodding rapidly. "I don't know how to do any of that."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"Man, we gotta work on your skills."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"Probably," Mae agreed. "I guess I could . . . draw something? For fliers?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"Yeah! Make 'em spooky!" Magnus suggest. "With glitter and tentacles and shit."

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah," Mae said, nodding even faster now. "Tentacles! And Pentacles! And other things that end in 'cles!" She paused and tilted her head. "So . . . when is Midsummer Fest-Whatever?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"Uh... Mid... Summer?" Yeah. They could honestly make it whenever they wanted.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"Soooo . . . this weekend?"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[magnusrushesin]

"Maybe next weekend. We gotta get those fliers made and it'll take time to get right."

The right amount of glitter and all.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thishouseishaunted]

"Yeah yeah yeah," Mae said.

She needed time to properly procrastinate!
