Another Wednesday, another insane set-up in the park!

Today there was a new, six part metal obstacle course set up: a tilted cube, a mountain, a loading bay, the ridge, the front line, and The Sisters.

"Welcome to professional tag," Anakin yelled into his megaphone, "which is apparently a sport now. We will divide into two teams: Team Pizza will be the taggers, Team Dread will be the, um, don't get tagged."

He was from a different galaxy, what do you want from him?

"Going in pairs, you will have 20 seconds in the obstacle course to either track down or evade the other person. If you get tagged, the other team gets a point. If you evade getting tagged, your team gets a point It's pretty easy. Listen for your name and then come get your shirt!"

Travis was in extremely good shape -- working out was a major part of his job, after all -- but that shape was much more about powering up and down obstacles and being an immovable object than it was about dodging or evading.

So he was super awkward moving around those obstacles. Catching him would not be that hard.

Harry was not exactly in good shape, but he was pretty used to running around things?

Sort of.

"Why do these even exist?" he asked, which was a very good question, jumping off of something to chase Travis.

"People get bored," Travis said with a shrug, awkwardly ducking under one of the ramps to get into the center of the . . . ring thing. "Very, very bored, apparently."

"And here we are," said Harry, who could always just not come to these things, going around to try and catch him on the other side of the ring thing.

Re: Round Eleven

"Here we are," Travis agreed. ". . . I have definitely been roped into stupider things."

Often in this very park!

"Same," Harry said, sneaking into the center to try and tag him.

Travis was indeed tagged. He sighed and rolled his eyes at the sky.

"Well. At least this doesn't seem to mean I'm 'it'."
