Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, July 27, 2022

Anakin's children had outgrown a summer slide obstacle course years ago, but it didn't mean it wasn't stuck in the back of his brain as an option for torture team building.

When everyone arrived at the park, they'd find a rickety-on-purpose wooden bridge across the duck/flamingo pond, an entire line of inflatable hurdles being sprayed by sprinklers, some kind of ring toss with a water cannon pointed at where the participants would be standing, and a Slip 'n Slide that would really serve no purpose other than to remind adults that gravity exists and they shouldn't be on a Slip 'n Slide past the age of about ten.

"Today we're running an obstacle course!" he said. At least it was stupidly humid outside, so getting wet wasn't a hardship. "Fastest through wins! No power usage! Listen for your names!"

For a brief moment, Libby was blissfully under the impression that it was just a regular old slip'n'slide, nothing to worry about here.

It did not take her long to realize that this was, of course, a very silly assumption.

"....why?" was all she could think to ask, eyes instinctively going heavenward to wonder if this was some sort of divine punishment for one of....well, if she was honest, many recent transgressions....
