Animal-Balancing Contest (evening, FHT - first floor lobby)

Rory arrived in the lobby balancing a tank with a wee turtle in it against one hip, a box from J,GOB in the opposite arm, and a flying puppy on a leash leading her.

She tied Vladdie to the leg of a table, set Yoda's tank and the cake down, and looked around to see what she still needed to set up.

[Yes, even crack-addled ideas like this need OCD threads. Wait for 'em. They're up, but play on the contest itself won't start until 5:30 EST.

ETA: And yes, it originally said it was in the afternoon. This is now set about 8:30 PM FHT.

SON OF ETA: You can eat cake now. Rufus is here!]

Callisto meeped a little at the sensation of claws digging into her skin. Since 'Steve' didn't seem to be sliding anymore she straightened up again.

'Steve' felt himself grow tall. He gave a triumphant bark, quite pleased with what he felt to be his accomplishment.

'Steve' seemed quite steady, so Callisto started turning around so he could get a good look at the lobby.

'Steve' trembled a little. This was moving sideways while being tall. Totally new thing for him. One of his back paws slipped. He tried to fix the problem by resting it on Callisto's ear.

"" Callisto turned her head trying to take the pressure off her ear without dumping 'Steve' to the floor.

Sliding! Whee!!

'Steve' slipped down Callisto's head, onto her shoulder, and then started to head towards the floor.

"Frak!" Callisto lunged to try and catch the puppy before he landed.

He landed right in her arms. He yipped happily, trying to lick her chin so that they could do it again.

Callisto ruffled Sean's fur. "Don't do that again, 'kay? Your dad would kill me."

Sean squirmed happily. If puppies could hug, he would be.

He hadn't learned how to do that yet.

"Good boy." Holding Sean in a very gentle death grip, since she didn't need another heart attack, Callisto went to give him back to 'Herb'.

"I thought the both of you did fab-u-lous-ly," 'Herb' said, taking the dog. "Top drawer, if I was judging."

"Fabulous or not, he still fell off," Callisto shrugged. "Which means I'm out."

"Shame to hear it, my friend," 'Herb' said. "I would not have voted that way if it were in my power.

"Oh, well, at least I got to met a charming man and his puppy."
