Anakin was running slightly late this morning thanks to getting trapped in the ice cream shop, which meant that the ice cream supplies he'd picked up were slightly melted. It was okay! He would adapt and overcome!

Weren't you thrilled about his ingenuity? Weren't you?

"Welcome back to the light, everyone," Anakin said with a smile. "Today we're going to do something easy: an ice cream sundae relay! Working in teams, you will build a sundae using ice cream, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and a cherry. The fastest team to complete it wins!"

That seemed too easy.

"The first name I call from each team will be the being you make the sundae on!"

There, that was more like it.

TEAM PLAIN, WAFFLE, PINE
HUMAN SUNDAE: Troy
Ben
Harry
Sakaki
Steve M.

TEAM ICE SCREAM
HUMAN SUNDAE: Faye
Astrid
Alara
Stark

TEAM PLAIN, WAFFLE, PINE

Just before the chocolate sauce runners began Anakin yelled out a very helpful, "Those delivering the chocolate sauce cannot use their hands to squirt it!"

"I am going to make," Troy assured his team with the utmost confidence, as he assumed what he figured would be the most helpful sundae-building position, "the best Ice Cream Troy."

After all, hadn't Christmas Troy been the only good part of Christmas? They totally had this!

Sakaki wasn't sure if the fact that Troy actually seemed to be enjoy this made it better or just more weird. She definitely was sure that Mr. Eagle, at least, would not approve.

Still...

After considering how this might be done, she knew that she had a very good throwing arm, so she was just going to see about making little snowballs out of the ice cream and lobbing them toward the tarp with surprisingly good aim.

"Sorry!" she called out, each time one landed. "Sorry! I....I'm so sorry!"

Her hands, though, were starting to feel a little numb from the cold...

"I'm not that sorry!" Ben said gleefully, using the Force to dump his gallon of ice cream over Troy's head.

Being pelted by ice cream balls was one thing (although, damn, Sakaki, girl, that arm); having a significant amount more ice cream just unceremoniously dumped on his head was another. And that other thing was the first trendrils of regret and realization that being an Ice Cream Troy was not like being a Christmas Troy.

Still...

"...that's fair," he allowed, because this was what they were here for, and he took a moment to lick a little ice cream off his lips.

At least it was tastier than being a Christmas Troy, and none of the ice cream (so far!) smelled like Special Drink.
