Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday mid-morning

[sith_happened]

Anakin was still not a cat! And he had stolen requisitioned the slip 'n slides from Paintball yesterday and set them up in roughly a triangle shape.

With bases between them. Because Anakin also still didn't know how baseball worked.

The bad news? The slip 'n slides were covered in baby oil and mudslide cocktail mix (because his order for mud had been misinterpreted. Watch out for the squirrels who'd definitely been licking the slip 'n slides.)

The good news? Your teams are in costumes made to protect you as you slide!

Well. Sort of. Anakin had gotten into the Japanese mascots again.

"Today we shall be playing slip 'n slide kickball!" Anakin told the unfortunates caught in the park this morning. "Listen for your names!"

It sounded like a perfectly normal word to Henry, who nodded. "Your family was farmers then?" he inquired.

Quinn snorted on the urge to laugh. “No. My dad’s a doctor.” A beat. “Was a doctor. He stopped practicing.”

Being kidnapped and forced to do emergency medicine for a bunch of psycho killers could do that to a guy.

"Oh, I see." She was a fancy one, then. "Did he teach you anything?" Henry inquired. "Seems like a handy set of skills to pass on. My father i-- was a blacksmith, and I was meant to take over the family forge eventually."

Oh. Quinn was pretty sure his change in tenses was for a different reason than hers.

She was already getting too involved here.

“I know some basics,” she said, coolly off-handed. “Bandaging, mostly. Blacksmithing, that would be cool to know.”

She could make her own weapons!

"Doesn't seem like a lot of people around here need anything made that way," Henry admitted. "I haven't even seen any horses."

“Probably not,” Quinn admitted. “But you’d probably kill on Instagram.”

Cole’s influence was showing.

“Not literally kill. People would be interested.”
