Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday, May 15, 2024

Good morning, everyone! It's time for another summer of Anakin Skywalker Pretends This Teaches Team Building 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 the 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 various stores and landmarks are!" he said. "Please listen as your name is called and then come up for your team-building clothing."

AKA: bizarre shirts.

"You will be in four teams of seven players each. You may not use your powers, should you have any, today."

No, he was not ready for her in party attire, but he would deny it until his dying breath.

He leaned against her a little in return and gave her a nudge, like friends! "Sure, that sounds great. I'm mostly going because the guy who owns the house has really friendly dogs, and I want to see them again."

Big words for the guy who couldn't even look at her normal attire.

"Oh! You didn't say there were gonna be dogs at the party!" Arden said, brightening.

Dogs would make it way easier to not feel self-conscious! If only Clint wasn't gonna be the worst and keep them upstairs.

Clint was totally the worst!

"I hope so. You and I should also spend more time with the wildlife in the preserve, if you'd like." You know, if she could stand spending time with him. "You can hang out with the birds and I can check on the porgs."

"Hopefully these porgs won't be inclined to cry on me like the intern porg does," Arden said. "But yeah, I'd love to see you do your Disney princess thing."

One to talk, Arden Finch.
