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."

"That is a good way to stop talking," Stark said, not pulling away. "It worked in California too." Just in case you forgot, Faye.

"I'm sorry. About the accident. And not remembering. That sounds very hard. But you're not old."

She hadn't forgotten, but it earned him a smile, all the same. "I'm good at not talking. We should definitely keep not talking, after this."

"And it's harder not knowing." She was still smiling, but it turned a little sad. "I'd like you to know me, but I'm still figuring out who the hell that even is." Part of why she kept things as superficial as she did: four years' of memories did not a fully-formed personality make.

But she was getting there.

"You're very good at not talking," Stark agreed. "I'm happy to not talk with you. After this. Or whenever you like."

"And if I can help you, please tell me. I want to help, if I can. But I'll be here even if I can't do anything else."
