Let's go to the a-MASS-ment park
Right in that moment, the clouds lazily drifted away, and an audacious beam of light pierced through, illuminating the entrance to the park. The atmosphere was lively: countless excited guests —youngsters and adults alike— approached the narrow access, mesmerized by the bright golden letters, which only looked even more extravagant as they appeared with the backdrop of several towering roller coasters and the magnificent Ferris wheel; the tallest one in the region. Fun could almost be felt. The combined voices of the furs only grew louder at every step of the way.
Not only that, but also the characteristic scents of all the iconic foods associated with any good summer fair filled the air. The slight sweet hints from the cotton candy machine, tartness of the mustard from the corndog stand, tangy notes of fresh lime and parsley for the tacos nearby, the unmistakable buttery aroma of popcorn, only matched in intensity by the pervasiveness of some not-so-distant cinnamon rolls, which contrasted dramatically with the omnipresent richness emanated by the countless fryers, all fired-up and ready to supply the crowds with the long-list of dietician’s worst nightmares.
And yet, the masses seemed perfectly fine with all of it, primed either by the unrivaled favorable weather or the prospect of spending the entire day climbing into the most exiting rides that the park had to offer.
A barrage of different species made their way past the arches and into the land where everyone could indulge on their inner child: a charming otter, eager to ride the Splashuttle, could hardly hold their excitement, listening as his wolf friend recount about that time he ate seven dozen cheesecake slices.
Equally impatient, and much less restraint by social conventions, a fizzy fox raced against a rather lagging tanuki, neither of their bulky frames being onerous enough to prevent them from storming thought the gates and disappearing into the rapidly growing queues for the attractions.
Of course, every now and then, the waves of eager visitors would be held back in their funneling motion through the limited point of access due to… size incompatibilities of the rather larger folk. Some of the drakes on the doughier side took significantly more time to squeeze past the rotating gates, as their midsections recreated the charming sag of a perfectly baked cupcake, generously spilling over the metallic laterals of the turnstile, much to the mortified amusement or comical embarrassment of fellow blue-crested dragons nearby. Poking both physically and figuratively would clearly be a common motif during their sojourn.
Speaking of poking out, despite the warm weather, a single individual stood out from the multitude like a sore thumb, partly due to his natural height, as a fairly tall —and wide— dragonite, but also greatly enhanced by the thick winter gear that kept him warm and positively balmy. Fortunately for him, he was well over the height restriction for every single game in the park. However, he was there mostly to try the latest culinary novelty: deep-fried sugar-glazed peanut butter dollops (covered with a bountiful helping of whipped cream).
And while some couldn’t help but obliviously drool over the promises of scrumptious delights, others wanted to present their very best angle, posing for all their fans on Snootchat. Equipped with a handy selfie stick, an external battery, and a second instantaneous camera (for those very special moment) a young dragon posed for the first among what would eventually become an entire album on his social media. Sure, there were plenty of randos in the background, but the variety and diversity of them all only made the scene even more inviting. Besides, he was there to have fun, not to stress about what his followers thought. After all, he had been looking forward to riding the newly opened Kangaroo Kicker! Full five-point-eighty-six million Newtons per square meter of force applied during four consecutive loops of pure adrenaline. This was going to be sensational.
Which of course brings us to the star of the show. A blue silhouette excitedly pointing and calling for his friend to quicken the pace, anxiously awaiting the moment when he could finally let his mind relax and let himself go after an exhausting week of arduous studies and non-stop occupations. He was finally there to enjoy and reap the rewards of yet another semester coming to an end. No more thinking about his next assignments, no more stress from the pervading alarm clock indicating the start of yet another day of class, no more restrictive cafeteria-sized portions, and —most importantly— no more expectations from his peers. He could now be as free and unhinged as he had always wanted to be. And he had his dear friend (Hey, that’s me!) right by his side to make sure every single instant of the day was well spent.
It had been I, Tzin, the feathered mastermind, who had carefully designed this plan to take advantage of the best rides, while indulging on a culinary tour of the gastronomical wonders that the stands had to offer. It had taken hours of planning, and meticulous scheduling but in the end, I had developed the perfect minute-by-minute agenda for the simultaneous maximization of joy and minimization of stress.
And according to my calculations, the first stop in the plan was —not to show any type of bias at all—, the Sonora Shack, a taco stand that, having just opened for the day, would naturally be fully stocked and ready to fill even the most demanding of appetites. Ten minutes later we would be headed towards the Bumper Cars with our first batch of pound cakes. And from there, we’d have to rush to secure a spot at the Peregrine Plunge. Not without getting some of that cotton candy to keep our mouths entertained.
It was going to be a fantastic day!
This is my part of a trade with the number-one sensation of this 2019, and FA-extraordinaire:
Kygen, who gratefully accepted to work with me and join me in a quest to have the best possible day at an amusement park, making the most out of everything such place has to offer. Of course, having a soft spot for food, it would be very hard to refuse the smorgasbord of tasty morsels available every sixth hop or so…
…I guess it doesn’t take a magician or a Tarot-card reader to tell that ill-fitting clothes and belly-spillage are a given in our future.
