Summer Shenanigans [All Day Wednesday]

Good morning, everyone! It's time for another summer of Anakin Skywalker Thinks This Teaches Team Building and But Mostly Amuses Himself!

Or "Shenanigans."

The bleachers for viewing were set up in the park, close to the pond and near the Belthazor Commemorative Divot. Food vendors, remembering how this worked, had arrived with hot dogs, popcorn, and rum for the squirrels. And coffee. Just...so much coffee. Huge flatscreens were set up facing the bleachers, which gave people a hint that today's event would not just stay inside the park, and the cameras were trained at...well, ankle height or the sky for now because squirrels and rum.

Anakin and his bullhorn were standing behind a folding table stacked high with brightly patterned shirts, and people who had been here before knew that just because the shirts were free, it never, ever meant you wanted to wear them.

"GOOD MORNING!" he boomed through the completely unnecessary bullhorn when enough people were gathered. "Welcome to another summer of team building activities!"

He might be waiting for a while if he was expecting cheers, just saying.

"Today, as has become tradition, we shall conduct a relay race around the island to acquaint you newcomers with where things are!" he said. "Please listen as your name is called and then come up for your team-building clothing."

AKA: ugly Hawaiian shirts.

"You'll be in three groups of six."

Exactly!

"I'll give you one home then," Vi said. "So you can rest those noodle arms."

Vi, you in danger, girl.

"Uh huh," Steph said, one eyebrow twitching ever so slightly upward.

Vi. You'd witnessed Steph using this voice on her players by now. You should know what that meant.

Consequences were future Vi's problem!

"Don't worry, I've got you."

"Who said I was worried?" Steph asked. "I didn't bring up pasta. I'm not the one who should be worried."

She said with a big, impish smile.

"Guess that means you're not cooking dinner tonight."

That's what Steph'd meant, right?

Steph's grin was way too self-satisfied.

"I'm definitely not now."

You got yourself into this, Vi.
giveittoyoursister: (You can call *her* anything)

Oh, what a terrible burden, doing a thing for her girlfriend that she liked doing for her girlfriend. Oh noes.

"Well, guess I learnt my lesson."

She hadn't.
drumsticksandd20s: (Pleased (Well How About That))

Depended on what you thought the lesson was!

"Which means you'll finally stop calling me that, right?"

Nope. Not even a little bit. Nope.
giveittoyoursister: (Smug little shit)

That it was fun to provoke Steph by calling her arms noodlely, obviously.

Vi just grinned at her. Charmingly.
