Back when they were both grown-up and sane, Reno and Rikku had decided to host a fundraiser in order to raise money for charity. Hey, they had asked their students to do one, and fair was fair, right?
They had not expected to be very young (and not all that bright) for the actual fundraiser itself.
This morning, Reno and Rikku had decided the best possible fundraiser would be ... a lemonade stand. Obviously.
Not that either of them knew how to make lemonade. They'd gotten some water from a hose, and they threw in some packets of fake sugar (the entire packets, paper and all) as well as some lemons (whole, and unsliced).
That had seemed boring.
Rikku had opted for some lemon-flavored candy, but they had just sat there in the pitcher of water not doing anything. Which was why she had fished them out, chewed them up, and spat them back in.
Reno had gone for chocolate, and was carefully breaking off squares of it to throw in. He was possibly getting more on his hands than in the pitcher, but that was okay, because he could lick his hands before getting the next piece!!!
Don't ask where the meta for GI Joe figurine, floating in the middle of the pitcher, came from; neither of them could remember. Also, don't ask what else was in the lemonade.
The sign read LEMMENAYDE (fer a nickul). Buyer, beware.
