Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, July 22, 2020

When everyone arrived in the park, they were greeted by a huge set of scaffolding reaching 30 feet (9 meters) into the air set up right next to the pond.

"Today," Anakin intoned, "you will fly!"

Were you afraid, potential volunteers? Good.

"Working in teams, you will construct human-or-other-sentient being-made and powered flying machines. Your size in limited to around 10 meters (30 feet) in diameter and weight-limited to approximately 150 kilos (330 pounds). Your inspiration will come via your team hats, which I painstakingly collected last week."

There would be frog hats again.

"You have all of the tools you need to build your crafts that you then must fly off of this pier at the end of our time together." He smiled in what he thought was a reassuring way. "No one will die. Listen for your names!"

Wednesdays were quickly becoming Mae's favorite days. Not only did she get to do something ridiculous and silly -- without getting in trouble -- the last two weeks she'd also gotten random extra cash out of it!

Which she pretty much instantly lost, sure, but that was because Mae was really bad with money. There was still joy to be found in getting it, even if she didn't keep it.

Speaking of being really bad with money...

"Okay," Eleanor said slipping Mae more money. "Who's everyone betting against?"

"Pancake hats," Mae said immediately, hand already out for the cash. "Just look at those yahoos. Not a chance they'll make it off the ground."

Money exchanged hands/paws immediately. "I like those odds. Mama needs a new platter of shrimp."

"Here here."

Eleanor was never seeing that money again.

"Pleasure doing business as always!"

"Pfft. This is easy money."

Well. Easy for Mae.

"Maybe they'll give you more of a challenge next week."
