Today Anakin had a helper!
An unwilling helper.
A helper who didn't know she was helping until right now.
"We're playing musical chairs today," Anakin said, gesturing for Rey to put chairs into a circle.
It might be obvious how much Rey didn't know she was helping by the wary look on her face even as she arranged the chairs.
"A little warning might be nice," she muttered, like she didn't know better.
"Where's the fun in that?" Anakin replied with a smile. "But musical chairs by itself is dull, and we've done team-building versions too often. So this time you will be seated in one place and pass a balloon around and around."
"How is it terrible?" Rey asked. "It's always terrible."
She defended you, Anakin. Always remember she defended you.
"When the music stops, the person holding the balloon has to pop it," Anakin said. "The balloon isn't empty."
"I hate the ones where I have to do laundry," Rey sighed, with the face of someone who would not be doing any defending today. "What are they filled with?"
"Surprises!" Anakin said with a bright smile.
Rey sighed. Sorry, everyone! Sorry!
"Listen for your names and come grab your shirts," Anakin said.
Those names:
Ilya Rozanov
Rey Skywalker
Hannibal Lecter
Isabela
Remy LeBeau
Jonathan Sims
Duke Crocker
Vi
James Flint
Lydia Bennet
Henry of Skalitz
Sairis Karkaroth
Erasmus Boone
Beckett Mariner

Re: Round 1
He held it gingerly in one hand.
