The Roof [Wednesday afternoon]

Triela had done an inventory the night before so today it had been a simple matter to grab her gear and head up to the roof.

She spread her gear out and looked over it again. Rappelling harnesses, carabiners, a few hundred-foot lengths of rope... She had everything she needed. She began looking around the roof looking for decent places to secure the ropes while she waited for her partner in crime to show up.

[It's an open, if non-emo-y roof, so anyone's welcome to drop by. Or see dangling people (so not dirty!). OCD ~~on the way~~ now complete.]

Triela nodded to herself as she tied down the last rope. Now all she had to do was wait for Dinah to show up, and whoever else decided they wanted to, and things could get started.

If you want a visit from the crazy people.

In case you want a visit from the crazy people and you don't live on the fifth floor.

In case you want a visit from the crazy people and you don't live on the fifth floor or the fourth floor.

In case you want a visit from the crazy people and you don't live on the fifth floor or the fourth floor or the third floor. (Ooooh, a pattern!)

Where hopefully you aren't going to get landed on. Because that would hurt.

Triela needed the practice, okay? IT'S NOT MY FAULT!

*snickersa nd goes to land on the roof*

Dinah pounded up the stairs after lunch, then grinned when she saw Triela. "Is it all set up?"

"As soon as we get rigged up," Triela couldn't help from snorting in amusement. She held up two harnesses. "You know how to put one of these on?"

"Yup! Fourth time, now. I'm getting good at this." Dinah grabbed the harness, then looked at the pile, grinning. "Extras for latecomers?"

Yep," Triela started pulling her harness on. "Never know who else might want to join the fun."

"Wooo!" Dinah glee'd, carefully settling the harness around herself. "Rappelling and paintball, there's something we should try together sometime."

"We should," Triela agreed, completely serious. "There are a number of useful entry techniques that are worth learning."

She pulled at her harness to check it then walked over to Dinah and turned around. "Check me?" Even Triela couldn't see behind herself.

"Cooooool. The one time I did an entry thing, we just crashed through a big window." Which would've been more fun, if the circumstances hadn't been so dire.

She checked Triela's shoulders, waist, and attachments, then patted her shoulder. "Good to go. Check me?"

Triela did, tugging at the harness in a couple of places. "You're good."

She shook her head. "Coming in through the window can be useful, but it's pretty noisy." She started walking over toward the edge of the roof.

Dinah followed her, and grinned over the edge. "Next time, Nerf guns. Ready when you are!"

"Race to the bottom on this first run?" Triela asked with a challenging smirk.

Dinah bounced on her toes. "Woo! Works for me!"

"Go!" Triela yelled after she had already spun and thrown herself off the roof.

What? So she was totally cheating!

"You--" Dinah laughed and jumped off the roof too. "Are not going to win!'

Triela let herself fall nearly two entire stories before she pulled up on her rope to start slowing herself down. She'd toss off some snarky response but she was two busy laughing as her boots pushed her off of the wall just below the fifth floor windows.

Jack was thinking it was laundry day; down to just a few shirts would be a good indication, especially when he didn't own many shirts to begin with. "Man. I hate laundry day." He sighed, his hands on his hips, staring at the (small) pile of clothes.

Down on the fourth floor, Angela was about ready to head out for cheerleading. Maybe with time to fit in coffee and a snack in one of the common rooms first.

She did pause in the middle of dragging her hair up into a ponytail when she heard noises outside her window, though.

Thud.

Dinah's aim for not-the-window was getting better. Really! See, no footprints!

"Hi, Angela!"
