[sith_happened]

There was an ice skating rink set up in the center of the park, which would be nice of a day like today if center ice hadn't been ominously filled with plastic ball pit balls. There were four laundry baskets spread out equally around the circle of balls, four scooters--red, yellow, blue, and green--next to the baskets, and most disturbingly of all...four hippo costumes.

Anakin, what have you wrought?

"We're playing Hungry Hungry Hippos," Anakin announced through the unnecessary megaphone. "And by we I mean you. Listen for your names!"

"You only need to wear the costume while you're retrieving the balls!" Anakin announced like that made it better. He pointed to the boring red, blue, green, and yellow t-shirts next to him. "Just wear the t-shirts for everything else."

"I'm not ready either," Belle confessed. "At all."

She was rather worried she'd fall on the ice.

"It's fine. I don't think anyone is," Steph reassured her. "Even if McGarrett thinks so."

The school's liability insurance must be amazing.

The secret was probably that there was no insurance on this island for anything.

"I'll do my best not to fall while pushing you. That is, unfortunately, the best I can offer."

Either that or Anakin and Zoe were too intimidating for adjusters to argue with.

"That is literally as much as I would ask for." Steph tried to get a better grip on her basket, and the hippo mask fell down into her eyes again. She sighed.

"I will try not to accidentally yeet the basket at your head. I make no promises about getting any balls into it."
