Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, June 15, 2022

[sith_happened]

The games were set up in the park today, which was a good thing, and there weren't even piles of ugly t-shirts today: another good thing!

There were very ugly socks instead.

And baby pools filled with...well, let's just call it water and not ruin the surprises. People who had been around for previous summers probably already remembered what happened with socks.

"Today you will be working in small groups to keep these pools up over your heads as you lie on the ground," Anakin explained. "Once you are settled in place with the pools, you must then go in a circle and each remove one sock from your feet without dumping the pool contents onto yourselves. And then go around again."

That was a rather mean smile, Anakin. "No powers. Listen for your names."

"Prettier than a Marine for sure." Oh, low bar.

Steve made a face. "I've seen stuff come out of MRE packets prettier than Marines. That's a low damn bar."

"And you cleared it," Eddie said brightly.

"Does the Army give out medals for that?" Steve asked.

"Done in crayon," Eddie replied. "They're pretty great."

"Don't leave the crayons out where a Marine can find 'em," Steve said, smirking. "They might eat them."

Bashing other services: one of the great hobbies of the armed forces.
