The Roof - Tuesday early evening until whenever

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Trudging up to the roof, Dick and Annette set their bags of goodies down near the ledge. Dick had also carried for her a smaller ice chest with cold drinks because slinging peeps off the roof could definitely make a person thirsty. No doubt about it.

Crouching next to the bags, Annette started pulling out the packages of different colored peeps and stacking them against the side ledge. "Oh crap these things are soft. Man, we hit someone with one of these and it is going to be messy! Hey, think we should aim for people?" She cast him a sideways glance, giving him a wicked little grin.

(the roof is open! If you want to get hit with a warm marshmallow peep, by all means, ping in! Dick modded with permission!)

"Obviously!" said Dick, grinning. "Everybody loves peeps!"

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"The slingshots are in that bag there if you want to get them out, and I so was not sure how to know what kind to buy. There was like a trillion different kind on the internet. So I bought a few different kind." Yeah, she'd been planning for this.

Annette opened a bag of purple chicky peeps and pulled one apart and ate its head.

Dick rifled through the bag and pulled out a slingshot. "You know, I haven't used a slingshot since middle school. I used to be quite handy with one."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She waved her hand and ate around the marshmallow she shoved in her mouth, "I dunno how to use one at all." She pointed at him. "Have to watch you first."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick picked up a purple peep and put it in the slingshot. "Yeah, my dad took mine away after I nailed my brother in the eye with an eraser. Had to wear an eyepatch. Called him Patchy the Pirate all summer."

He aimed for a park bench and let go of the band. It hit and splattered all over the bench. "Woo hoo! I still got it!"

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Geeze, Dick. Did you nail him on purpose? An accident would sound so much better." She chuckled though, bending down to open another package, this time yellow.

Standing back up she watched him and jumped up and down when he hit the bench. "Ohmigod! You hit it! Whoohoo!"

She was so about trying to do it now too and picked up a slingshot and put a peep in it and started to aim but she didn't pull back far enough so her peep sort of just plopped out and landed on the top part of the ledge. "Crap."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Well I was trying to hit him on the forehead." Yeah, that sounded so much better.

"You gotta pull back farther. It's like shooting a bow and arrow." he said. Come to think of it, he also hit his brother with an arrow too. Plastic one, of course.

"Oh, Dick, you were a bad kid." She grinned.

She tried again, this time pulling back farther. "Man, this rubber thing is harder than I thought." She let it go and managed to get the tree just to the left of the dorm roof.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Well you got it off the roof. That's a start." he said, coming up behind her. "Load it up again and I'll help you pull it back."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

She put another peep in position and started to pull back, "Maybe the rubber just needs to be worked in."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick put his chin on Annette's shoulder and helped her pull back on the band. "The new ones can be kind of tricky."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"What am I aiming at?" Her left arm was straight out, holding to the stem, and with Dick's help she was doing pretty good pulling the band back. "You don't think I'm a weakling, do you?" She narrowed one eye a little, thinking it might help her in aiming.

John has a plate of cookies and is wandering around the dorms, handing some out to his friends. He wanders up to the roof, to see if anyone is brooding emo up there.

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Annette was trying again with her peep in the slingshot but before she found something to aim at, her finger slipped and her peep went flying towards the roof door just as it opened.

"Uh-oh."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick laughed. Hard.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

*splat!* John nearly tossed his cookies as he got hit by the peep. Luckily, he only had a few cookies left and managed to keep 'em on the plate. "What the hell?!"

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Annette turned around quickly and pretended to be doing something worthwhile. And she might have pointed at Dick a little.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John flung marshmallow guts off his neck and off his t-shirt with a look of disgust. "Dude. You're so not getting cookies."

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick looked over at Annette. "Oh don't go blaming that on me."

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Wha? What's the-" She turned and saw John and blinked totally innocently. "What the crap happened, John? That looks a little nasty. Ew." She was pursing her lips hard to keep from laughing. And she reached over and pinched Dick on the ass, to keep him quiet.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

"I dunno, I came up here to offer cookies, and next thing I know I've got a face full of goo." He's not exactly happy, and proves this by eating a cookie.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

Dick had to put his hand over his mouth to keep from laughing at the dirty of the sentence.

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Well, not a full face of goo, John. Geeze, don't be a baby. If I had a face full of goo I would just lick it off. Cause it has to be good, right?"

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

John responded by flinging Peepsgoo at her. Wiht a bit of a smirk.

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"There is so much dirty with all of this." Dick said. He then pointed at Annette and mouthed 'It was her' to John.
