He dove to the ground and covered his head. Sure, it wasn't big on dignity, but when you're the only one getting up after some tinkerer's steam engine explodes, dignity isn't something you're too worried about.
A moment later, he heard a massive splat, and something thick and wet showered all over his back. He waited a few seconds, then cautiously looked up.
The Eccentric was grinning, almost impossibly wide. There wasn't so much as a scratch on him. Confused, Geoff stood up- and promptly fell over again.
Looking around, it appeared that most of the platform was covered in some sort of white, fluffy goo. Sirius was nowhere to be seen, just more of the goo covering the rest of the contestants and some sort of giant, metal plate, upside down at the far end of the platform.
The plate stirred, and after a few attempts, the angel extricated himself from beneath it, barely recognizable under the thick coating of whipped cream.
