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!]

"It..." Walter shifted with a bounce.

"Can't" Ow! He weaved his shoulders a bit to help keep his balance.

"Get any" Sadistic freakin' feline.

"Better" Oh this was getting to be quite annoying.

"Without" He caught his breath and ducked his head forward to keep Faithful on his head.

"Practice." He was having a lot of trouble keeping the cat on now and looked slightly like a juggler with two of four balls out of control."

Faithful snickered to himself and began doing a rather intricate dance on Walter's head.

If Walter had not had a dancing cat on his head, he might have wondered just who had paid Faithful to behave like this. As it was, his thoughts were more along the lines of, Shit! Dancing cat on my head.

The best thing to be said was that once Faithful started dancing, there was at least some sort of rhythm to it. Rhythm, he had.

Whether he'd make it to two and a half minutes was anyone's guess.

Faithful stopped dancing and started bouncing back and forth, throughtfully enjoying himself.

Ow. Ow. Ow.

Walter was good with things he could see, but he hadn't practiced for jumping cats.

When he was certain Faithful had the best of him, he timed his next movement to try to bump Faithful off of him in some interestingly face saving manner.

Faithful tried to cartwheel off of Walter. Instead, he got stuck to the cieling by his claws. "Damn this."
