Campus Beautification Committee: Part Deux

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty walks back from town, a little confused as to how he ended up at Chaucer's last night. He remembers going for a walk with Rory.... but nothing after that.

His confusion is left behind when he sees the mess that happened last night.

"Jesus Parker! What the hell did you do this for?! It's Parent's Weekend!"

At which point he hears the giggles coming from the walls and the air vents. Marty's eyes narrow into a squint. Gremlins. Damn them. Damn them all.

Marty goes to his room and changes into a white tank top and daisy dukes more comfortable clothes, gathers the cleaning buckets, mops.

He also lays out some large tarps in a pattern not unlike a baseball diamond.

No reason why they can't have fun while they clean...

((OOC: Help clean up the mess! Find a Gremlin? You get to play Gremlin baseball))

Help Clean up here!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Brushes, mops, cleaning supplies. Grab 'em and get to work.

Bring something to smash a gremlin if you think of it.

To help ease off nervous energy before the arrival of the parental unit, John decides to help clean up.

He grabs a mop and some soap and water and begins mopping at the paint.

"Art classes seem to really be paying off," he says with a laugh.

"Freakin' gremlins. Need to get an exterminator is what we need." Marty says as he scrubs away at some paint.

Wearing actual completely (http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/8707/menspant058ox.jpg) different (http://img450.imageshack.us/img450/4737/mensshirt080ij.jpg) clothing to normal, Callisto wanders up to the roof sometime after Ethics class. "Hey, Marty."

Marty is currently spraying off some paint off the wall with a water hose.

"Hey Callisto. Going for a new look?"

Faith grabs a sponge and grins at Marty. "Need help, Blank?"

"Can always use a hand. Any chance Wilkins can ferret out any gremlins?"

Gremlin Baseball

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Got a gremlin? Bring 'em here and we'll have a little fun.

Sam walks up, carrying the gremlin she somehow managed to subdue (http://www.livejournal.com/users/carter_i_am/19753.html).

"I hear you're accepting gremlin donations?"

Re: Gremlin Baseball

Marty grins.

"Do you want to pitch or go at bat?"

Janet walks by after all the books have finally been put back on the shelves and the last of the scorch marks that she can reach have been scrubbed away.

She spots the cleaning supplies and shudders, having just spent two days cleaning up the library without the help of the librarian or the other two library assistants.

Re: Gremlin Baseball

Soaking wet and covered in gremlin goo, Sam runs over and hides behind Janet. "Help!"

The shot of water to the face makes her think she should have chosen better cover.

Anakin came walking up with another gremlin hovering in front of him. "I can always find you," he was scolding it. "I'm a Jedi."

He waved at Marty. "Got your bat ready?"

Re: Gremlin Baseball

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

I do! But we got more that just popped up! (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhighdorms/216794.html?thread=7835098#t7835098)

"Not guilty, goddamnit! I have an alibi! I just got out of the freakin' clinic!"

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

"Yeah right! This has your handiwork all over it!"

Gremlin Explosion!!!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty instinctively sprays the gremlin with water, which saves him from being bitten but in what could only happen in a Steven Spielburg film at FandomHigh, the gremlin multiplies in to six Gremlins.

"Aw Crap! Everybody! Smash them!

Re: Gremlin Explosion!!!

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Man, why couldn't they be cute and cuddly like Wilkins?!" John says, using his mop to bat at one Gremlin.

Re: Gremlin Explosion!!!

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Anakin snagged one that was running past giggling and slammed it into a wall.

"Did we know they could multiply?" he asked, looking around for more.

Back to Cleaning...

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

With the gremlins gone, Marty starts throwing all the remains of the gremlins into garbage sacks.

"Should I be saving these for Zero?"

Re: Back to Cleaning...

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

"Not all of them. There's not enough space in the lab," Parker says, looking troubled. "If you can get a few that are mostly intact, I think that'd be all she'd want."

She sighs. "Damnit. Wish the little twink were here."

Re: Back to Cleaning...

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John wrings his shirt out and leans his mop against a wall. He starts picking up bits of gremlin goo and depositing them in bags.

"Looking and smelling like gremlin is one way to keep my father away from me," John says with a laugh.

OOC: When you get the parent greeting thread up, can you poke me in some way? I am multi-tasking like woah and have about a ninety-nine percent chance of missing it. Thanks.

Re: Marty

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Just started working on it now. I'll respond to this with a *poke* and a link.

Cool?
