After all the departures a distraction is on the cards for a lot of people. As promised, Dylan has booked them time on the ice as a group and Bucky's made a few Toyota Highlanders available for transport. They looked like a motorcade when they rolled out of the compound! There are fast food options at the rink, and a decent coffee bar, plus actual bar but best not drink and skate. Equipment is available to hire or bring your own along if you have it!
Volunteer A seems to spend half the time on their butt, it doesn't stop them trying though or having fun. By the end of the afternoon, they're much better at staying upright. Fitz on the other hand is loathe to let go of the wall and spends their time hugging the glass as they make slow progress around the rink, until Courtney lends them a hand and the two skate together. Lydia has crazy skills, seriously, are you a secret figure skater? Volunteer E catches the Coach's eye with their fast reflexes in the cage (goal), want to join Dylan's team? Volunteer F is great with a stick and puck, skating is no problem, they just haven't found the brakes yet. No matter, there are walls and other players to slow them down, right?
Meanwhile in the stands, Volunteer G has given their cocoa an alcoholic upgrade, they’re willing to share with Volunteer H, and the two look very jolly by home time.
“You guys, there’s a Zamboni!” Clint gets his wrists slapped (gently) for getting too close to it.
