The Shed of Holding was back in the center of the park, so clearly that was a terrible sign. Anakin also looked very pleased with himself, so...run.

Ohhhh, too late.

"Today we have more obstacles to overcome!" Anakin said through the microphone and seriously, someone take away his access to British television shows. "Listen for your name and you cannot use powers today for any of the events. You can, however, take suggestions from your teammates!"

Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[sith_happened]

Happy Canada Day!

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[apocalypsehow]

"No." Oh, Five. It was happening anyway!

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[knife_bender]

"Just put on the shirt ya bitch." Brotherly love.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[apocalypsehow]

"Aren't you upset it doesn't fit your low rent Ratman aesthetic?"

So much brotherly love.

Whelp, it could have been worse. He heard about the balloon shirts from last week.

Though it felt kind of weird to be reppin' Canada when he had never been to the damn country.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[firehousehimbo]

"Greatest. Shirt. Ever." This was was for the hall of fame of Shenanigan shirts for sure, in Buck's opinion.

Jon gave the beaver shirt a Look.

He sighed.

He really didn't have the energy to argue; he just put it on.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[unusual_sith]

This shirt was actually unobjectionable, apart from the fact that Lana wasn't Canadian. Still, it wasn't as though she had any stake in Earth politics.

She wondered if she could replace "Canadian" with "Sith". Or "Alliance".

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[justalittlerepressed]

Eddie was just getting used to being dragged into this. And at least the shirt wasn't terrible this time...

"Maybe he's being nice," Eddie muttered, looking at his team's shirt.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[stykera]

Stark didn't understand the implications of his shirt so he just shrugged and changed into it quickly. Someone should absolutely explain it to him.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[drumsticksandd20s]

"Bro," Steph said, shaking her head at him with a highly amused smirk on her face. "That shirt. Just... damn, dude."

She was laughing now, but wait until she realized who else from that team was going to ask her what the shirt meant.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[somethingwithturquoise]

"I feel like this has got to be some kind of cultural appropriation," said Summer, not out of any real concern for offending their neighbors to the north, but mostly just because she felt she had to? She clearly didn't look too bothered by it as she tugged the shirt on over her tank top.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[pocketpretzels]

Watts was only subjecting himself to this nonsense because he had the feeling Steven had liked something about the way he’d looked in modern clothing, so why not try and repeat the experiment.

Only of course he had to end up with this particular shirt, whose slang meaning he was well aware of thank you despite it being somewhat anachronistic for him to do so, his whole canon is anachronistic*

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[intheeyeofthebeholding]

"Watts." Jon nodded politely (if a bit distractedly) at him. "It's best if you don't think too hard on the shirts. Or wear it inside-out."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[heroic_jawline]

"UM," Steve said, staring pointedly at his shirt. "This is not acceptable."

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[unusual_sith]

"What's wrong with it?" Lana asked.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[pocketpretzels]

“I will gladly trade you,” Watts offered. Such a helpful person he was!

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[outofthequiver]

If Libby was looking a little uncertain and uncomfortable this week, it had nothing to do with her shirt, which was pretty disappointingly not terrible.

It was because she'd decided to wear the Jesus socks today.

And she was definitely having second thoughts about wearing the Jesus socks, even after the very long and arduous theological debate she'd already had with herself about them.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[drumsticksandd20s]

"Get out, I fucking love this," Steph exclaimed, immediately taking her phone out so she could get a picture of the shirt and send it to Ryan.

Little bittersweet, since she couldn't help thinking of that whole incident where Gabe had accidentally hit a Canada goose with his car and Ryan had convinced him that the Mounties would be after him for it, but still.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi held up her shirt complete with fuzzy little animal. "I don't want to know about this one either, do I?"

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"Oh, that's cute," Belle said as she looked at her shirt. She meant the animal.

She did not know the implications, no.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[weetuskenraider]

Tahiri glanced over at her apparent teammate with an amused expression on her face.

"I was wondering if I'd ever get a lookalike around here."

Ha, Jaina, you weren't the only one any more.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[apocalypsehow]

Yeeeeeah. Don't expect Five to do more than look on with concern at that shirt.

Somewhere, Klaus was cracking up, though. And wanted one for himself if he could give it an obscenely deep v.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[weetuskenraider]

Had Tahiri come to visit just for this? Yes, actually; it was really nice to have a break, however brief, for something purely silly.

It was also nice to see that Master Skywalker was still his very, very weird self, and she was chuckling about her shirt as she pulled it on.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[apocalypsehow]

Oh no, a blond like Dolores, but looking like Belle.

This wasn't okay at all!

Maybe if he toned down the resting murder face while staring at Tahiri... but no. That was just his face.
