[2025: Reunion] DRUNK ANIMAGUS RACE!

[solveforx]

DRUNK ANIMAGUS RACE!!

Who started it? It doesn't really matter. At some point tonight, someone crushed a beer can on their forehead and said to someone else, "Hey, I bet I could beat you to that tree. As a cat." And suddenly it was a big to-do. It's late. The kids are in bed and the parents are more than a little toasted. Participants and onlookers have gathered on shore of Lake Gooseberry for what will surely be the race of the century year month next 4 to 6 hours.

It's muggy, still. Someone's marked a path for the race with stones. And if you shut your eyes and listen really hard you can hear Goosey the Lake Monster silently judging you for what you have become. And I don't mean the fact that you're a slug animagus.

HOW THIS WORKS

• Do two shots, then spin three times on a beater bat, then transform and run as fast as you can.


• Don't drink? Spin six times.


• The race takes you from near the docks outside the lodge down south toward where Ribbonfin's campsite used to be. With everything overgrown, the track stops about halfway there.


• Fill out this form and get an RNG time!:

<b>Name(s):</b> New phone who dis <b>Animagus Form:</b> What kinda creepy crawly whoosawhatsit are you <b>Shots Shots Shots Shots:</b> What did you do shots of <b>Athletic Skill As An Animal:</b> On a scale of snail to cheetah. <b>Why Do You Deserve to Win:</b> It's important.

» RACE!: This is foolish. You're not even going to win anything. Whatever. Post your forms here.

» SPECTATING!: Get drunk and then don't do exercise, like a smart person.

» THE FINISH LINE!: Did you make it?

Name(s): Kurt Wolfhart!!!
Animagus Form: Australian shepherd!
Shots Shots Shots Shots: Peach Schnapps. Look how he's grown!!

Shots Shots Shots Shots: Jaeger And crown black it was not a good ideab
Athletic Skill As An Animal: I mean, have you seen Oz? As a human and as a corgi? Even sober, those tiny legs hinder him!! But dogs are typically fast so he's got that. I couldn't find how fast they go but look at them race!

SPECTATING!

[solveforx]

Cricket loves Nate

[chryseis]

How did she manage to make a poster board sign so quickly? Cricket wishes y’all’d just learn by now and stop asking her dumb questions. Anyhow, she’s here because someone she loves dearly is here—as per.

Cricket is cheering wildly for Nate! Don’t worry, she’s been briefed ahead of time and is hyper aware that it’s very important to say the FULL name of Nate’s animagus whilst cheering, no matter how drunk she is or how much she loves nicknames.

Jesse (& Open) Loves His Drunk Wife

[jijmjr]

Jesse crab runs (y’know, that awkward, galloping, cross legged, side stepped, drunk run) alongside Ivy as she flaps her way down the track. Ivy leaves him in the dust at minute two and he collapses heavily into the weeds. “I love my drunk bird wife!!!”

THE FINISH LINE!

[solveforx]

Rafael

[firstposition]

The nature of returning to human form often means Rafael ends up lying face down on the ground. This time, he doesn't bother to get up.

Lucas

[bubblewrapped]

When he crosses the finish line, Lucas makes a loud brrrt! noise, flops over and rolls around in the dirt. Eventually he remembers he's a human. Oh, his clothes are very dusty now.

OOC - SHITPOSTING!
