S2B1 - Welcome to Pacific Park
World 11111Pacific Park’s Summer Daze event happens every year on the last weekend in July, when the city is so hot the asphalt of the roads begins to melt, and brownouts brought on by the cumulative effect of too many overworked air conditioners roll across neighborhoods. The breathless inland heat makes the siren call of the beach, and the pier’s seaside attractions inescapable. And the park always rises to the occasion, with shows, rides, contests, and spectacles that are almost enough to make people forget the heat.This year, the highlight of Summer Daze will be a series of shows featuring Rancho Pasillo’s own aquatic ace, Trident, who has been set up with his own trailer, merch, and "interns" from the Sidekicks Program.And of course there's the yearly Summer Daze recycling drive hosted by the Ambassadors for a Greener Reality & Ecological Engagement, a club from the local high school, spearheaded by student council president Chris Rey, who's managed to recruit the elusive exchange student everyone's wondering about.But who is that shadow figure lurking in the pylons under the pier? Why is the seaweed washing up on the beach such a brilliant shade of green? What is the truth about the rumors that there are some inaccuracies in Trident’s origin story? And is the shimmering shape where the sea meets the sky something more than just a trick of the light on the water?There’s only one way to find out.This crossover event was organized by Vanessa Haas.

S2B2 - Welcome to Isla Obscura
World 11111Ok, so maybe Trident isn't exactly who he said he was. Maybe the whole "intern" gig wasn't what it was cracked up to be. Maybe it is a kind of stupid idea to have people bring their recycling to an amusement park.But hey, turns out there's a secret mad scientist lab off the cost of Rancho Pasillo where a villain thought to be vanquished is busy making a new army of hybrid fish people, and all that stand between her and taking over the city are a few teenage super heroes trapped inside said underwater lab, some of whom can't even swim.So that's something!What will they find under the waves' briny depths? What is actually going on under the sea? And is s the seaweed really always greener?This crossover event was organized by Vanessa Haas. You can find them on twitter as @ AlpacaMyBooks.
