Did anyone want to be awake for this after the kraken drill?

No.

Was that going to stop Anakin? Of course not!

The bleachers were down on the beach today, along with eight large rafts floating semi-precariously out in the water. Was this tempting a real kraken to arrive?

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe.

"Today it's really, ridiculously hot," Anakin yelled through the megaphone. "So I'm letting you get wet! You're welcome!"

Wait to hear what you're doing first before expressing your gratitude.

"You will be conducting a water balloon fight out there on the water. You will be given hand-held balloon launchers, and a bucket full of water balloons." Which may or may not contain water. "You will have teams of eight. Fastest team to pass a water balloon all the way down the line wins. You get a time penalty at the end for each balloon that breaks along the way. Listen for your names!''

Grab a bleacher seat! Avoid making eye contact with Anakin! Catch a nap!

Stark had not managed to get back to sleep after the radio so he was clutching some coffee in one hand while hoping he might be spared this week. He would not be.

Liz had not been sleeping very well to begin with these last few days so she was very tired and distracted but she had told Prompto she would go down to the Shenanigans and this might be the last chance she had to do one for a while so she was there and trying to stay focused.

Rey was still a little annoyed after this morning, which meant she was annoyed about knowing she would be called even though she actually thought of some of these things as a sort of training and therefore did it to herself.

The best was fine, though. Everything else sucked.

Connor had just been out for a bit, seeing he was up and all thanks to the bloody alarm going off that morning. He saw the group of people at the park and remembered last week... only too late to turn around and leave so he committed and joined the group to see what was going on this time.

Gray had fallen asleep on a bleacher, but that had nothing to do with the drill that morning and everything to do with him being Gray.

Clint was still tired from this morning, so he was mainlining some coffee while Lexi napped on the bleacher next to him like only a small child could.

He tried not to laugh when Kitty got called up, because he was a good, sympathetic husband, and not because he knew she'd try to put that shirt on him if he wasn't nice.

"I think it says something that this is the least objectionable of the lot," Lana said, turning her shirt around to examine it.

Eliot had slept just fine, he didn't know what you people were complaining about.

Oh sure, there was the bit where he woke up when the alarm first went off, but he and Margo had been more than capable of putting up a noise cancelling spell while half-asleep, and had gone right back to bed.
