"Welcome back to another week of team-building!" Anakin yelled through his megaphone. "Today you will be in four teams of seven and you will be fishing with your toes for valuable prizes!"

They weren't that valuable, folks.

He gestured at the four inflatable pools located around the park with folding chairs circling them. "Working together, you have to pull 21 smallish objects from the water--" and be grateful that it's just water, "--using only your toes. And no powers. The fastest team to accomplish this wins. Listen for your name, come get your shirt and take off your shoes!"

"They're pretty sweet, huh?" Steve said, grinning back. His had fishing lures on it!

"It's so awesome." Buck had wasted no time in getting his on and he thought he looked awesome. "I don't know what people are groaning about, last week's shirt was awesome too."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"People just don't appreciate the aesthetic of a really great aloha shirt, I guess," Steve said. "It's sad."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"People have bad taste." No, the two of you had bad taste.

This dude's entire wardrobe would be made entirely of shirts he had gotten through t-shirt cannons if he didn't have a sister, girlfriends and Eddie to stop him.

And Steve's came in four packs from the base exchange. They were wardrobe soulmates!

"Plus it's free!" Steve said. "Who doesn't like free stuff?"

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"Exactly!" This is what he had been trying to tell people! "We should be thanking the guy with the mullet."

Oh yeah, that's definitely what Anakin liked to be called.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"We definitely should at the end of the summer," Steve agreed. "Fruit basket?"

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"That'd be nice," Buck said. "And the quality of fruit basket depends on if he can keep the awesome shirts coming."

You'd be getting a shitty edible arrangement if you didn't keep up with the cool shirts, Skywalker!

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

Nothing but honeydew, the "fuck you" of the fruit world!

"That's very nice of us," Steve decided, nodding.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"It is," Buck agreed. "Least we can do. The guy must have a huge t-shirt budget."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"Isn't he kind of in charge?" Steve said. "Do you think he's embezzling to add to his t-shirt budget?"

No, Steve. That's not a thing.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"Embezzling from what?" Buck asked.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"No idea," Steve admitted. "The welcome picnic budget?"

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"Wow, you're more desperate for a case than I am for a fire," Buck joked.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

Steve laughed and nodded. "The last one was a guy who's last name was Moon," he said. "He was being mailed pictures of people's asses. I wish I was kidding."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"I mean, that's to be expected with a last name like that," Buck said. "Nothing but ass photos sent, constantly."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"He wanted me to run ass prints or something," Steve said, snickering like a true professional.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"Maybe do an ass line up?" Buck suggested.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[grenadesandohana]

"Point to the ass that hurt you, Mr. Moon," Steve intoned.
