Summer Shenanigans, Wednesday mid-morning

[sith_happened]

"Today we're living life a quarter mile at a time," Anakin announced with a grin, "and if you weren't at the movie night on Monday, you'll just have to be confused for a second. Today is all about car racing!"

He looked at the two tracks he'd set up, neither of which featured cars (one was tricycles, and one was rickshaws), and shrugged. "Well. Sort of. Listen for your names! Today it's every person for themselves, but you will be moving in groups of four."

Yes, individual glory even if the movie had been about family. Anakin liked to keep you on your toes.

"Listen for your names! I will be participating today."

Arrive & Mingle

As you do!

Steve was there with two puppies, praying he didn't get called up to participate this week.

As it just so happened, Prompto was here with Noctra to see if it would be good, cheap entertainment for his daughter while Liz rested in some peace and quiet, so, sure, why not? He could keep an eye on Koala Stark while Summer participated.

Even if most of his attention was going to be on trying to prevent Noctra from running out there and attempting to pull a Grand Theft Tricycle.

What if Stark and Noctra teamed up for a theft? Think of the adorable photos, Prompto!

Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[sith_happened]

At least you aren't racing in Japanese mascot costumes?

"I did this to myself," Kitty realized, and was a little concerned about what fresh car racing hell awaited her tomorrow.

Summer was smirking as she was tugging on a shirt, after safely...erm, 'securing' (whether or not he would actually stay secure was clearly up to chance) koala Stark somewhere in the audience. Maybe Prompto would keep an eye on him if he showed up....

Anyway, she was smirking because this was definitely a good one to pop in for, making it a decent silver lining on the fact that she did come back a little earlier than anticipated due to not lazing about in bed with an orcish bard that was basically the fantasy version of Hozier or that Gruul girl she'd developed a pretty epic enemies-to-lovers story arc with in those fighting pits...

"Oh, I get it," Luma announced as she looked at her shirt, "it's like from the movie we watched earlier this week."

She was very proud of herself for making the connection, yes. Even if she was eying the 'racing vehicles' with deep suspicion.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

Eleanor was almost tempted to suggest that she had actually gotten the shirt meant for Luma, but she knew that would only make her irritated and angry.

Potentially proving the joke, of course, but it wouldn't be worth it in the long run. She would just amused herself with the thought as she pulled it on and get ready for however this was going to go.

"Who is this bald man menacing a small child with an umbrella?" Remy asked, looking at his t-shirt.

Look. He didn't spend a lot of time watching movies, okay? He was a very busy superhero-slash-thief. Or thief-slash-superhero, depending on which title he's in what mood he's in.

Still. At least it wasn't just a samurai head with legs.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[deathtofrendo]

Huh.

Quinn actually liked this one.

Not that you'd be able to tell by her expression, but she did put it on without sneering or like. "Accidentally" ripping anything. So there you go.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[solo_sword]

Jaina should have known she was going to get called. (Seriously, the narrative had said so for a week now.) At least she was on the correctly named team.

Re: Voluntolds, Come on Down!

[napking]

Was Gray conspiring inside his head to get his hands on one of Team Just Furious's shirts? Yes.

Maybe Regency Girl would give him hers if he asked nicely. She didn't look like a t-shirts girl.

Race!

Tricycle Racing!

[sith_happened]

There are four child-sized tricycles (and four helmets because safety first)! There is an inflated track for you to race around. Three laps! Go go go!

McGarrett, your time has come. Take the rickshaws on a loop around the island! Enjoy the teeth rattling that comes with going up and down stairs! Do not crash into the popcorn machine in front of the city hall.

Podracing!

[sith_happened]

Anakin's in charge and he says he can take you into the Flight Shed, fire up the podracing simulator, and school you all. Your various simulated explosive crashes will be broadcast on the flatscreens in the park so no one misses out on your exploits.

Podracing is hard and Anakin has not set the controls to easy mode.
