4th Floor Hallway, Thursday Night

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

Freddie sometimes should not be left to his own devices.

With the combined power of garbage bags, duct tape, and industrial sized bottles of, erm, personal lubricant (hey, he was the iCarly technical producer, this was not his first time needing that sort of thing), the entire hallway was now a giant slip-n-slide.

Some mattresses on either end made sure no one would end up dying.

For now, though, he was just going to be in his swim trunks and penguin sliding up and down the hallway. Because he could.

"Pantalones!" he cried, because that's how Freddie Benson rolled.

[ooc: Open to anyone still in the dorms! Chaos cleared with the admins.]

Rapunzel hadn't helped with the set-up, but that was only because she hadn't known Freddie was up to. But when she walked into the hallway, her eyes grew wide. Very, very wide.

"Ohmygosh! Is this a slippenslide?" That was what he'd said when he was a she, right?

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"Yep!" Freddie said, very carefully balancing himself so as to not slip and fall. "Normally they use water, but I realized that might end up causing serious building damage. So instead... special oil. It washes off easy."

[leavingthenest.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that's very clever!" Also clever? Being vague about what it was, since saying more would probably lead to Rapunzel asking for long explanations.

"And you just... slide?"

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"That's the idea," Freddie said. "And you can get really good distance, too. You just have to be careful with the run-up, since it's a little slippery."

He'd totally biffed out a couple times, but it was all in the name of fun.

"I don't... have to wear special clothes, do I?" Rapunzel hadn't had a chance to look into those swim suit things yet, but that looked really fun!

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"You don't have to," Freddie said. "But the oil might make your clothes a little... oily."

Well said, Fredward.

"It should wash out just fine, though. You'll just need to change after."

"Hello, Rapunzel," Raven said when she caught sight of the other girl in the hall. "How have you been? You did not join our classmates on the spring trip?"

[leavingthenest.livejournal.com]

"Oh, Raven!" Yay! Rapunzel liked seeing her friends!

"And, no..." She flushed ever so slightly. "I kind of... wanted some time alone?" Which still felt weird, but Rapunzel felt a bit more relaxed than she'd been before she'd spent most of a week in a nearly-empty dorm.

"What about you?"

[trigons_child]

"The same," Raven said vaguely. Even after a weeks in Azarath she still found solitude more comforting. "I did not find myself in the mood for travels, so I decided to stay here. I did not expect many others to remain behind as well."

[leavingthenest.livejournal.com]

"There aren't that many, are there?" She certainly hadn't encountered them. Though that was because she hadn't really been out much.

[trigons_child]

Raven had been trying to meditate in her room when she heard the commotion on the floor below. She hadn't thought many people were left in the dorms, so curious, she came down the stairs to investigate.

"...what are you doing?" she said.

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"It's a slip and slide!" Freddie said, sliding over to greet Raven. "Come on, it's a lot of fun. And since almost no one is around, we can be as loud and silly as we want."

He grinned. "So... join us?"

[trigons_child]

Raven shook her head, though she did give Freddie a smile. "I am not very good at being loud and silly," she said. "I tend towards quiet and serious."

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"Well then, I think it's time you got a little practice while there's not too many people watching," Freddie explained. "Because loud and silly is way more fun. Practically by definition."

[trigons_child]

"I can feel you are certainly enjoying yourself," Raven said, and she dropped her shields enough to soak that feeling in, as unfamiliar as it had been lately. "But perhaps I will just watch for now."

Sam heard the shouting on her way back from a food-finding mission (the fourth floor did well for sweet snacks, but the second floor totally always had the best deli meats). She took in the reinvented hallway with raised eyebrows.

"Wow, Freddie." She grinned. "This is totally awesome."

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

And so, Sam was greeted by her boyfriend wearing swim trunks and with a heavy amount of... oil on him. He waved, a proud smile on his face.

"Why thank you. I'm thinking we might want to film a clip or two for iCarly with it. I'll just have to wear gloves or something."

[hurtingzeebo]

"Yeah . . . you're kinda all slimy." And no, that was not Sam's disapproving face. She reached out to swipe a finger over his chest. ". . . Is this stuff edible?"

What? This was Sam, here.

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"Well, erm, it's used for... so I mean it's probably... I have no idea," Freddie said, blushing furiously.

[hurtingzeebo]

Sam blinked. "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

Then she slowly, tentatively licked her finger.

"Tastes like beauty pageants," she noted.

Anna was just sort of wandering around the dorms when she heard the racket and came to see what was going on.

If she just sort of...popped up behind everyone, well, maybe they'd think she was just super quiet. "What's going on up here?"

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"I made a ridiculous slip-n-slide," Freddie said proudly. "It's, uhhh, oil based rather than water, though. For safety reasons and stuff."

[dressedinblood]

"Won't that be hard to clean up?" Anna wondered. "Is this floor's hallway going to be slippery for days?"

Not that that would particularly bother her, as her relationship to the actual floor was variable, but other people might find it problematic.

[randomspanish.livejournal.com]

"Well, most of it will be in the trash bags," Freddie said. "so I just have to be careful not to let it spill out anywhere. So... it'll take some clean-up, yeah. But most people won't be back for a couple days, so I have time."

He shrugged. "Nothing better to do, really."

[dressedinblood]

"Yes, I know what you mean," Anna agreed. She hesitated before asking, "Okay, what's a slip-n-slide?"

She'd missed it by three years.
