fandomhigh | Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday [all day]

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.

Or get bitten. Or both!

You are creating costumes for four gremlins and need to get one of them to hold an accordion. Good luck with that. At some point, your table will start playing Verka's song and nothing you can do will stop it.

"There is something deeply broken inside that man," Steve muttered, getting a closer look at the costumes they were supposed to be making.

"This is terrifying on multiple levels," Steph said, poking cautiously at the gremlin-sized accordion.

"Where he gets the props, for one," Steve said, nodding.

You are creating five costumes including two yellow wolf heads! At some point, your table will start playing Subwoolfer's Eurovision entry and nothing you can do will stop it.

"I can see why no one was willing to show their face for this," Aphra said once the song started playing.

"It's...interesting?" Belle said, trying to be diplomatic.

"Have you any idea how to make wolf heads?"

Jo had never been good at making things, especially darning and mending so she was looking a little lost and rather confused at the gremlins.

Well, hopefully you have enough tin foil because you are making some boots. And enjoy the endless repetition of "Waterloo" coming from your table. There's no way to stop it.

"I would have rather had the shirts," Stark said as he shook his head sadly.

"Are any of you immune to gremlin bites?"

"I am absolutely, definitely not!" Graham declared.

Weirdly proud for having that actual knowledge, too.

"Please try not to get bitten," Stark said, giving Graham a bit of side-eye.

"I don't know if I am, they don't seem interested in biting me, but if you know you aren't you ought to try to keep your distance. Unless you have very thick gloves?"

Cutter wasn’t sure if it was just because he was really tired but he blinked a little at that, “gremlin bites?”

He had somehow managed to avoid hearing about that.

"They bite," Stark said, nodding towards the gremlins. "And if they do you'll forget yourself and think you're someone else entirely. Don't get bitten."

One lime green bolero and some leather pants coming up! And stuck onto a gremlin and his four hot pink backup dancers.

At least "Cha Cha Cha" is hopelessly catchy? Because you're going to hear it for as long as it takes to make those costumes.

"That's too much pink for anyone to be wearing," Vi said, holding a bolt of fabric that was only a few shades off her own hair.

"I'm not going to be good at this one," Rey warned.

When you needed fashion, naturally you went to Rey.

Three skin-tight shiny outfits to put onto gremlins, coming up! Hopefully! If you can concentrate after repeated exposure to "Blood and Glitter".

Are you so happy you could die? Or are you just gremlin bit?

"...oh, no," said Libby, who, although she looked amused and somewhat fascinated by all this, was also smart, and therefor knew that this was going to be....an experience.

"This, oh boy, those gremlins do not look like they want to be wearing skin tight suits," Charlie said with a grin.

"Maybe we just need to convince them?" Libby suggested hopefully. "That's probably way easier than wrangling them into them, although I do have a lot of experience squeezing clothes onto squirming Littles....they're usually a lot less bitey, though!"

"Much less bitey," Charlie agreed, "And far less likely to make you believe you're something else for a period of time."

"What on Earth is this?" Arthur asked plaintively, like the great-grandpa-aged guy he was.

You can't even see the outfits. What the fuck?
