Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, June 28, 2023

When the poor schmucks Fandom arrived in the park on Wednesday, they would see five wooden rafts, big enough to each hold four people (or Muppets, or a Sidon), bobbing on the pond. In the center of each raft was a metal bucket full of objects. Some were balloon-shaped, some were ball-shaped, others were clearly shoes. One looked suspiciously like Intern Porg.

(Do not throw Intern Porg.)

"In honor of break week, we are doing something that didn't require much effort on my part to set up," Anakin said, which was pretty straight-forward of him. "We're doing a balloon-ish toss! Pick an object, toss it to your teammate on the next raft over. Do not miss, or break the object! Fastest team to get all the way around the circuit wins."

He grinned. "Powers may be used today. And there are plenty of objects in the buckets. No one says you have to only toss things at your own teammates."

Sometimes Anakin just liked to watch the world burn.

"Listen for your names!"

Oh noooooooo! Libby texted back, and she just regretted that Kurt couldn't have heard her laugh when she got the picture, because, oh, she was not expecting something like that! In spirit, yes, but not the specifics.

Those really are terrible! I feel like you'd need to get a rabies shot just for wearing it! And it's nice here. Quiet, mostly, so long as I can avoid Patience and Just, but that's not too difficult since I'm staying with Grandma Jean. She's helping me go over some good possible nursing schools. We might even go visit one real quick before I head back to Fandom!

There was maybe a little bit of a pause, before she added, face gone pink and warm as she did:

I miss you too.

Tell Patience and Just I'll port over and keep them in line if they give you any trouble Kurt texted bac with a smiley face to let her know he was kidding. He would of course port over in an instant if she needed him... If he was ya know, able to actually port that far and all that. Minor detail!

Give Grandma Jean my best. And good luck with the nursing school stuff! You will have to tell me what it's like if you do go and visit one of the schools. I'd love to hear about it!

Kurt smiled and then added Maybe we can facetime while you are there and you can show me around a little too?

Yeah, Libby was pretty sure that was a distance a bit further than Kurt could really port across, but she wasn't about to say anything about it! Besides, maybe he would just sort of do little bursts of portaling, a little further each time, until he got there or, you know, just go to Portalocity, that was probably an option, too!

Well, I don't know about facetiming, I wouldn't want to be impolite, but I will definitely take a few pictures for you, unless I can tell right away that it's not the right place for me. But it's the place where Zo's father went for his nursing program, so I doubt that will be the case.

Sounds good. Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back. Will be counting down the days! And yes there might have been a smiley face and a little heart emoji sent with that text.
