3rd Floor Hallways [Thursday Evening]

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

The dorm hallways make for an excellent lightball court.

Spring Break means there's a lot fewer people around.

Fewer people around means less potential for innocent-bystander-related accidents.

Which, of course, is why Bridge is currently in the third floor hallway with a bunch of lightball gloves.

[ooc: completely, totally, utterly open.]

Z stuck her head out of room 317 and asked hopefully, "Is it can be lightball time now?"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge's only answer is to throw a glove at her.

Sky came down to the third floor, waving to Bridge and Z. Oh yes, it was lightball time. It was serious business.

[multiplez]

Z greeted him with an enthusiastic, "You're going down, Tate!"

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge throws a glove at him too. "Suit up."

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

"Please," said Sky, catching the glove and smirking at Z. "You're both going to be going down. This is my favorite game. I always win."

[multiplez]

"I can be in two places at once," Z pointed out. "Or do we wanna make this no-powers?"

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

"I think no powers would be fairest," said Sky. "Just in case anybody who doesn't have them wants to join us. Or, you know, anybody with powers that wouldn't give them an advantage."

[intraspective]

"What's going on?" Ino asked curiously, on her way up to her room after handwavily walking Tether for a while.

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

Sky smiled at Ino.

"We're playing lightball," he said. "It's pretty easy to learn, if you'd like to join us."

[intraspective]

"I--" Ino shrugged, grinning. "Sure, I guess. Nothing better to do. What do I have to do?"

[multiplez]

"The aim is to hit Sky with the lightball," Z said with a smirk.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge snickers and hands a glove over to Ino. "You'll need this," he says. "Z's... well, she's not wrong. You wanna hit other people. You also wanna catch the ball if you can, but only with the glove, and avoid being hit yourself."

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

Sky scowled at Z in response.

"Yeah, Bridge has it covered. It can get really fast-paced, but it's really fun, too."

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge hits a button on his glove, causing a little glowing green ball to hover an inch or so above his outstretched palm. "I don't think we've ever actually met, though I've seen you around," he admits to Ino. "I'm Bridge," he says, plucking the ball out of the air and throwing it in her direction.

[intraspective]

Ino had been in the process of poking at her glove and she squeaked as the ball was tossed in her direction. "I'm Ino," she said, and it was mostly luck that let her bat the ball in Z's direction. "And I don't think I've met you before either," she admitted, with a cheeky grin at Z. "Though, if you're advocating throwing things at people then I'm all for it."

[multiplez]

Z caught the ball, said, "I'm Z," and pitched it at Sky. Hard.

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

Sky was barely able to catch the ball and stumbled backwards a few steps. He smirked again and tossed it back to Bridge.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge, realising that there's no way he can catch the ball from the angle it's approaching him, does the next best thing and dodges out of the way, letting the ball hit the wall and ricochet off back towards Z.

[multiplez]

Z had to leap at a wild angle to catch the ball and avoid getting hit, and pitched it roughly Ino-ward before she hit the floor rolling.

[intraspective]

Oh. Oh, Ino liked this game. She managed to snag the ball by the very tips of her fingers, feet skidding slightly on the floor and flung it towards Sky.

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

Sky was ready this time, and ducked forward; the ball bounced off the wall and flew back to Z.

[multiplez]

Z was looking in entirely the wrong direction and looked back just in time to swear and duck out of the way. The ball hit the wall a few inches above her head and caromed off toward Bridge.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Who actually manages to catch it this time, turning sharply and sending it towards Ino.

[intraspective]

Ino didn't even try to catch it this time, flinging herself to the side and the ball bouncing off the wall heading for Z.

[multiplez]

Z ducked to avoid getting hit and flung up her glove hand to catch the ball. Then she rose, pivoted, and hurled it at Sky.

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

Sky smirked and ducked again... only to have the ball unexpectedly bounce off a few walls, then come back and smack right into his chest, then clatter away harmlessly across the floor.

"Grrrrrrgh."

[multiplez]

Z did a little victory dance. "You were saying, O Lightball Champion of the Universe?"

[redintraining.livejournal.com]

"Shut up," Sky mumbled, picking up the ball and tossing it gently to her. "Well, I'm tagged out. Let's see who goes next."

[multiplez]

Z hefted the ball and glanced thoughtfully back and forth between Ino and Bridge. "Hmmm."
