Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, August 19, 2020

[sith_happened]

Anakin looked a little like he hadn't slept, but that was not going to stop him from having the last bit of summer fun, darn it!

And judging by all of the stations set up around the park, he might have needed to.

"Today we're having an old fashioned field day...thing," Anakin said. He'd never had a field day, so.

"Listen for your names, get your Fandom High t-shirts--" they were blue with gremlin prints all over them, "--and enjoy the day!"

Or something.

Sack Race!

[sith_happened]

Get in this extremely scratchy potato sack and hop, hop, hop across the grass!

[OOC: RNG says the winners are Magnus, Jaye, and then Beaker and I need to see how that happened.]

Egg on Spoon Race

[sith_happened]

Why is this even a thing. Of course your eggs are not hard boiled because Anakin is mean.

Ready, steady, go!

[OOC: RNG says the winners are Steve M, then Sabine, then Stark.]

Crab Walk!

[sith_happened]

...were there not supposed to be live crabs involved in the crab walk? Because Anakin let some loose.

Bet ya'll are setting some records for skittering right now.

[OOC: Fastest this was Eleanor, Danny, and Kitty!]

Pie Eating Contest!

[sith_happened]

Hands behind your back! Eating only with your face! On your marks, get set, go!

Hope everyone likes blueberry, the stainiest of all pies.

[OOC: And the winners are Steve Rogers, Wayne, and Rey. And a no-doubt horrified Tisarwat.]

Tug of War!

[sith_happened]

Anakin has divided you into two teams!

Team Blue: Tony, Steve M, Kitty, Sabine, Stark, Jaye, Rosa, Freya
Team Gold: Eleanor, Danny, Magnus, Wayne, Steve R, Rey, Tisarwat, Beaker

"Super powers are encouraged!" Anakin called, smirking. "You have five minutes to come up with a plan, then we're going to pull. First Team with a member in the pond loses."

[OOC: RNG says Team Gold emerges victorious!]

Talk to Anakin!

[sith_happened]

If you'd like.

OOC

[sith_happened]

It has been a day, friends.

Was Eleanor tired because she did not sleep well last night? You bet your ash she was. However she was here to compete today. Especially if it meant her first drink was free for ladies night.

In the meantime she was chilling in the seats and looking to place bets on the losers.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Dooooown!

[mother_forker]

"Oh look, shirts with ugly alien things on them," Eleanor said with a yawn. "Yep. I've worn less than that."

...

"Worse than that."

...

"Okay both statements are true. Why am I saying this out loud?"

Re: Egg on Spoon Race

[mother_forker]

Yeah. This was not Eleanor's thing. So she just pretended to try and drop her egg on Beaker's head.

Re: Pie Eating Contest!

[mother_forker]

Face blue and defeated, Eleanor was rather miffed that she lost. "If this was any other kind of fruit pie, I would have been totally into this."

Re: Crab Walk!

[mother_forker]

Eleanor was quite good at crawling around on all fours, it turns out.

Especially if she's trying to get away from crabs.

"This is bullshirt!"

She'll feel better when she comes across the finish line.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[thatwaslucky]

Rey was actually really relieved to see that there wouldn't be something completely insane today, the day when she'd had no sleep and her focus was shot.

But hey, her and everyone else soooo... slightly more level playing field?

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[hatesparadise]

Danny was tired and only here because Steve was bribing him. Though he'd had to buy the bribe himself using Steve's credit card.

Which were normal things to do with your work partner.

Re: Sack Race!

[magnusrushesin]

"Heck yeah!" Someone rolled a Nat 20 on that athletics check. Which was why it seemed like Magnus levitated from one end of the course to the other. With all the skill of an Olympic athlete.

Shame he wasted that roll on the sack race, though.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[imafuturist]

It had sounded like a good idea to go with Steve to do the ridiculous Wednesday class with Steve after a bad evening of nightmares, but in practice it was less so.

Tony clutched his coffee close, casting baleful looks at the whole set-up. The things he did for his fiance.

Re: Pie Eating Contest!

[heroic_jawline]

Steve looked ridiculously proud of himself as he won. "Guess all that practice with Thor paid off!"

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[grenadesandohana]

"You made it," Steve said, smiling happily as he ambled over.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[heroic_jawline]

Steve came over and silently handing him a giant thermos of emergency back up coffee.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[hatesparadise]

"I'm hoping to see you get your ass handed to you by a kid again," Danny admitted with a yawn.

Ugh, of course Steve had to be chipper and make this seem like a better idea than it was.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[imafuturist]

"You're my favorite," Tony sighed. Was he talking to Steve or the coffee? Who knew.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[grenadesandohana]

"While wearing an ugly shirt," Steve said, compartmentalizing like a highly trained operative who was shoving aside allll of the dreams of the night before.

Re: Arrive and Mingle

[heroic_jawline]

"But I'm after the coffee," Steve said, already deciding which way that would shake out.
