Summer Shenanigans- Wednesday, August 11

[solo_sword]

Oh hey, Anakin and Beaker weren't here today! Instead there was a short brunette with a megaphone. She didn't need it, she just liked it.

"Welcome to today's Shenanigans. Grandfather's not here. I'm Jaina and I'm going to be your drill instructor today," she announced. "Today you're going to be doing a mud run. You will get dirty, you won't like it, and I won't care."

Jaina hadn't realized it was Truth Day, that was just how she talked to people.

"We have five obstacles for you to get through to make it to the end, where you will win absolutely nothing. Maybe my grudging respect. No teams today, it's every being for themselves. And I don't know hardly anyone's names so whoever I point to has to come down here and participate, and I know who I'm pointing to so don't think you're getting away with anything."

The Dunes

[solo_sword]

You'll have to get over a course of six mud dunes about three feet high. Just enough to be annoying.

And it was here that did it. This was the moment where Sakaki, doing well so far without much effort because of her natural prowess for these sorts of things (although she was clearly less good at avoiding getting covered in mud! It was fine! She didn't like this shirt anyway!). Because as she was getting ready to just hurdle easily over the dunes, her ears caught up on somehting that sounded suspiciously like an adorable meow not too far away. She tossed a glance over her shoulder as if to measure her lead, blinked, realized outloud, "This doesn't even matter!" and left the course to find the kitten she was certain she heard.

And sure enough, there one was.

And sure enough, as soon as Sakaki smiled and said hello and reached out her hand with an "I'm not going to hurt you," the cat clamped down on her fingers with a bite that had no intention of letting up any time soon.

She shouted out in surprise as much as pain, though the tears springing to her eyes were pure emotion.

"I just want you to love me!"

Because the Truth hurt. In more reasons than one, in this case.

Scrambling over the mud dunes wasn't particularly fun but it wasn't terrible either. Stark was slowing down a bit at this point though, in an effort not to fall face-first into the mud. He was doing well so far. He didn't want to ruin that.

Harry was sort of starting to catch up now, getting sort of okay at climbing and sliding down these things. At least he shouldn't be last.

Too bad he didn't know cleaning spells, he'd absolutely need to do laundry.
