Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday [all day]
Today's games were not being held in the park, which should have been a red flag. Fortunately, Anakin has provided a red flag!
Twenty feet up.
At the end of a very gross-looking wooden pole danging over Serenity Cove.
"Today you're all out of for yourselves," Anakin yelled from the top of recycled scaffolding, which had a 40-foot long greased up telephone pole balanced between it about 20 feet up. "Many thanks to our local bars and restaurants for providing the lard, grease, fish guts, Crisco and bacon fat to really lube this thing up."
Beaker, covered in said grossness, looked decidedly less grateful.
"The rules are simple," Anakin said. "Whoever gets across the pole and reaches the flag wins all you can eat at Mooby Burger for a week!" Whether Mooby Burger was a good prize or not was entirely up to the winners. "You may walk, run, or slide your way across, but you may not use supernatural powers."
"And thank you in advance for volunteering!"
Which was news to those volunteers.
"Pick up your t-shirts--" Anakin did not realize that his shirts were a Philadelphia sports reference, "--and listen for your names!"
Oh boy.
"Vi, Eleanor, Beaker, Summer, Isabella, Steve R, Guillermo, Jon, Beta, Stark, TJ, Eddie, Jane, Graham, Belle, Steph, Steve M, Libby, and Alara! Come on over!"

Re: Talk to Anakin!
"Is it really."
Re: Talk to Anakin!
A feeling of grossness and fish.
Re: Talk to Anakin!
And also so Anakin would also have to do laundry.
Re: Talk to Anakin!
His voice was the only thing that was currently dry. Thank you for that, Stark.
Re: Talk to Anakin!
"I ought to go home and shower. You should as well. You're a bit slimy. And...fragrant."
Re: Talk to Anakin!
Lies.
