¡Y dinosaurios!” (W-well, maybe they’ll hunt bears to eat. “P-pues, a lo mejor, se van a cazar osos para comer. Well where are they going to keep their food and stuff?) ¿Pero dónde van a guardar su comida y todo?” (huh, yeah that van doesn’t have a rack on top. “Ah sí, que esa furgoneta no tiene un baca encima. Paco looked up from the rusty green hatchback they’d been studying to try and find what new car his little brother was now pointing at. ![]() “…¡Oi Paco, mira! Ese coche no tiene nada.” (Hey Paco, look! That car doesn’t have anything!) Not long after they stopped in their pre-assigned preparation tent did they notice 2 entities looking at them from just outside the driver’s area: The men all filed back into their van, and drove off into the festival, paying close attention to all the other teams getting ready around them. You can head in, put the car in tent, eh, eleven, and… good luck tomorrow.” You are all driver, you are all mechanic, and all navigator, too. ![]() Considering how indistinguishable these 5 were, however, she figured trying to identify one for a specific role would be an exercise in futility, anyway. “…Is that even allowed?!” The receptionist knew the rules technically allowed members to share roles, but didn’t think that meant the teams could just forsake roles entirely. “oh, so you’re all going to be driver and navigator?” The receptionist was starting to get a bit frustrated. The receptionist rubbed her eyes a bit “So, what, you all want to be driver?” “Well, yes, but one of you has to fill the role of driver, no?” “Ah, okay… so who should I put as driver?” As she would find when she checked the computer later, they also matched the photographs on file perfectly as if the photos had been taken during their conversation. To the receptionist’s surprise, this matched up perfectly with her sheet: Team Milkvan had 5 members whose names and profiles were completely identical, with the only discrepancy being that one member was listed as female. “…ah, uh, okay then… so what team, did you register-” The receptionist thought the one directly in front of her had said that, but wasn’t sure. Said receptionist, a bit taken aback, eventually started “…Hello-” All of them were visually identical, as far as the receptionist could see, all wearing the same black suit, hat and sunglasses and they all stood in exactly the same position, arranged in a half-circle so that all of them were equidistant from and towering over the receptionist. In spite of this, when the blacked out van pulled up to the tent, all 5 occupants of the van got out (single file out of the front doors) and lined up slightly uncomfortably close to the receptionist. ![]() The check-in tent was designed so that the racecar’s driver could pull up and speak to the official without having to leave their car, and this was indicated by a sign.
