HAPPY SONGKRAN!

[sangkhan]

[ Are you all cowering in your rooms yet?

Stains may not seep under doors but doors are easily brought down, as proven by the seven vividly painted elephants now roaming your hallways, baying for you to come out or they might start knocking.

For the more socially inclined, residents may now stumble over super soakers and water guns and look more of them somewhere in their vicinity. These babies are locked and loaded, ready to go, and they will never run out of water. The best part, of course, is that they will wash away any and all stains --but only if used on another person.

Remember now, both Heaven and Hell have long spoons. ]

[lonenoble]

[Here, York. Hare a patrolling and bloody Spartan to soak. She missed the elephants...]

[encryptedlock]

[The question is, how good is Six as dodging grenades? Okay, how about brightly colored plastic ones filled with water?

York really doesn't expect to actually nail her on the first hit, but it's worth a shot.]

[lonenoble]

[Six reacted almost instinctively, pulling out a gun and aiming at York as she dodges, finger on the trigger] What was that for?

[encryptedlock]

[York laughs, though not unkindly.]

It's a water fight, Six. There are squirt guns everywhere. Idea is to soak your opponents more than they get you.

Want to play?

[lonenoble]

Oh. [Putting the very real gun she pulled away] What's the occasion?

[encryptedlock]

[He shrugs.] Found a bunch of water guns and balloons on the grounds today. Maybe the castle's trying to make up for being a douchebag.

[lonenoble]

You mean it's making up for the bloody reminder.

[encryptedlock]

Well, yeah.

Besides, water balloons aren't unlike grenades, at least in strategy.

[lonenoble]

True enough. [Finding a convenient squirt gun.]

Can't hurt.

[encryptedlock]

Come at me!

[Now the true test begins. Can he hit Noble Six with a water balloon??]

[lonenoble]

[Chuckling at the challenge, aiming a shot at him, ready to dodge.] You think you can take a Spartan?

[encryptedlock]

Ha! What kind of soldier am I if I don't at least try?

[He'll sacrifice one balloon as a feint and then lob a second in quick succession in the direction he predicts she'll dodge.]

[lonenoble]

Not the type that should be in the military. [She dodges, just to be clipped on the arm, removing some of the bloody marking.]

[encryptedlock]

Exactly why I have to try.

[Oho, it seems to be working on her markings, too. York wonders if she'll notice - and scrambles to find a few more water balloons, since he could easily run out at this rate.]

[lonenoble]

[Firing at York at that, then the arm catches her eye...] It's coming off?

[encryptedlock]

And here I thought it was just normal water.

[York dodges, though a bit of the spray catches him as well. Bits of his own markings have been washed out by previous waterfights, but he's still got some bloodstains here and there.]

[lonenoble]

Doesn't look it. As some of yours just came off.

That's good.

[encryptedlock]

Now that's a good thing. I'm half tempted to just stand here and let you nail me a couple times.

[lonenoble]

Why not? And I'd let you soak me to make sure I get clean.

[encryptedlock]

[Well....

Heck, why not?]

Sure. Want to keep using balloons or grab one of the squirt guns?

[lonenoble]

Balloons would be fast... The guns might be more fun, York.

[encryptedlock]

[York laughs.]

Guns it is. Meet you back here in five?

[lonenoble]

All right. Come back in 5, guns ready. Just to keep it interesting.

[encryptedlock]

Sounds like a plan.

[Off to find the biggest Super Soakers he can.]

[lonenoble]

[on her way to do the same. Not that she's that used to squirt guns.

She's fairly quick and waiting for York shortly.]
