Continue Trying Not to Die, July 17, 2020

[sith_happened]

So Anakin had out of his house today that had mysteriously doubled in size and had about thirty new bookshelves that Rory, apparently, had been making all week. Anakin had decided to Just Not Ask.

"Right, I'm assuming that I'm not the only looking forward to not being on an island right now," he said dryly. "Unfortunately, Portalocity has insisted that is was an Only Island Travel Week, which I am very sure they just made up. Regardless, we're going to Sri Lanka. Try not to die."

Roadblock: Fill 'er Up!

[sith_happened]

Pick up a color badge in the gas station's office and then search along a line of parked tuk-tuks for 4 that had the same color marker on their windshields. Theyn you have to lead the tuk-tuks back to the gas station to fill up their tanks to 3 liters (0.79 US gal). Once all 4 tuk-tuks had full tanks, you were given the next clue.

At one point Eleanor found herself on a downward slope with her tuk-tuk and suddenly was going downward at a very accelerated rate. Ahead of her were was two small roads. One of them crowded with five people working on said road and in the other was a large dog sleeping in the road. Now she wasn't going that fast. So she wasn't going to kill anyone.

However.

She had a choice. Hit five people and injure them or hurt a dog. Now the five people had loved ones, family and possibly other people depending on them for income. On the other hand the dog was fluffy and pretty cute.

So she hit the five people sending them flying in her wake and hurling curses at Eleanor in Sinhalan or Tamil.

"Sorry! But the dog was cute!"

They at least gave chase for another block before giving up on her.

Okuyasu muscled his way through this, thankful it was mainly color matching and then pushing the tuktuks.

"Hahaha, ea-sy," he declared, once he'd found the last of his four. "Time to get pushing!"

He didn't have anything fancy to do, this was perfect for him.

Nell found this easier than she'd thought she might. It took next to no time to find the four with the same color and they were surprisingly easy to drive.

"Oh, I've done this before," Alexis said.

The leading slowed her down, though.

Beaker somehow managed to catch himself on fire at the petrol station, so the taxi guys loitering on the corner banned together to get his tuk-tuks filled just to get him away.
