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."

"The squirrels know where you live, Eddie." Now let that keep you up at night.

"...that's terrifying, Buck."

"But not untrue," he said helpfully. "Learn to love it."

"And you're still not worried about them biting you?" Because you should be. They watched you sleep, Buck.

"I'm polite to them," Buck said. "I don't give them reason to bite me."

The raccoons on the other hand...

"So far," Eddie replied. "I also wouldn't have thought you'd been rabies shots either."

"Aw, come on, perk up," Buck said with a grin. "This might be fun!"

"Maybe if my team beats yours," Eddie replied, nudging him with his elbow.

Buck scoffed. "You have no chance."

He would, indeed, have a chance.

"Oh, we're going to beat you now," Eddie decided, knowing absolutely nothing about his team.
