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."

Oh, boy, was Libby glad she'd fully embraced jeans for these activities completely for this one!

"Okay," she said, trying to bolster up some confidence, "we can do this!"

It sounded...excessively complicated, but it could be fun? Definitely not something she'd imagine trying to adopt for the Littles, though, it would be a disaster.

Alara looked a little nervous as she stared at the pool, it looked very fragile.

“I hope so,” she said, trying to get sone confidence of her own.

“This is going to be fun,” Guillermo added, completely unaware that he was going to be responsible for pouring Gatorade over everyone later.

"I suppose that's one word for it."

Look, even Hannibal's jeans were designer; these socks weren't exactly his thing. But he could work with the colors.

"I may actually have to keep these," Miguel said.

Even if his talons did go right through them.
