Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday [all day]

[sith_happened]

Today the park was set up with a stage in the center of it, which should have been everyone's first warning. There was also a small herd? committee? congress? of gremlins--looking surly--standing on that stage. There was also some slightly repetitive background music to let you know what sort of fiendishness Anakin had in store today.

"Hello!" he boomed through the megaphone from...nowhere near the stage. Because Skywalkers and gremlins don't mix. "Today is everyone's favorite--" debatable, "--summer game: Gremlin Fashion Show! Today, inspired by the Eurovision Song Contest, you will be recreating iconic Eurovision stage looks for our lovely models."

One of the gremlins snapped their teeth at him.

"...right," Anakin said, taking another step away from the stage. "You will be working in five teams of four. You have been given inspiration photographs and all the handwavy supplies you will need at each table. I suggest splitting into costume creators and gremlin wranglers, but that division of labor is entirely up to you. You will not, unfortunately, be getting your own shirts this week, but feel free to use the costume inspiration to make your own visual representations of team unity."

There was zero chance of that happening, Anakin. " Listen for your names!" he yelled, trailing off as Beaker, in full sexy milkmaid attire, rolled along the grass in a hamster ball that tipped over and caught fire. "I'll just go deal with that," he added.

Voluntolds, Come on Down!

Good news, there's no shirts! Bad news, you are wrangling multiple gremlins into tight costumes!

"Right," Steve said, trotting down from the stands. "This seems...insane."

Amaya was bristling a little, sending withering glances across the way at Rosa. Let's go to the Wednesday activity, she said. It'll be fun, she said. My team will totally kick your team's ass, she said.

Far be it from Amaya to turn down a challenge.

But, of course, it would be the one with the gremlins.

Listen, Beta had just been trying to take a walk through the park (because Zo's concerns about her literally never getting outside enough were entirely founded) and had no intention of getting involved in this nonsense, except she heard her name called and. Uh. Dean Skywalker terrified her a little bit.

So she was basically standing there frozen to the spot, eyes darting nervously from place to place and telling herself she'd made a grievous tactical error.

"Stupid," she muttered to herself, "deciding to come this way on a Wednesday. Stupid, stupid..."

Oh no, were any of these gremlins her store regulars?

Steph was busy scanning the... herd? Maybe a collective of gremlins should be called a hallucination. Anyway, none of them seemed to be the gamer gremlins but she couldn't entirely be sure.

Man. Ordinarily I love signing up for this shit, ridiculous as it gets, but I miiiiiiiiight be regretting my choices a little bit today.

Charlie laughed delightedly. "Oh, this is not going to go well!"

"Wait, what?"

What the fuck, Arthur?

"I didn't sign up for this!"

Oh, well. Too late now.

Guillermo was looking a lot more excited about this than what he actually should be as he made his way down.
