The Water Fight Meme
THE WATER FIGHT MEME
It's summer. It's fairy world. It's hot. No matter what world you're from, what court you're from, you need to cool down. The King and Queen of both courts have agreed to a truce and members of both courts, no matter where they previously were, will find themselves in a clearing in the middle of an unknown forest. There is a dais up that is warded that both sets of monarchs sit upon and a herald is brought forth to announce the terms:
• Both courts will have ample supplies of both water balloons and water pistols.
• There will be 'stations' where one can refill their supplies.
• As tech does not work here, supplies will have to be refilled magically.
• Reach a station and say aquius to refill your water guns and aquius arcus to get a refurbished supply of water balloons.
• There is no reward or punishment for participating or not participating other than the fun involved in a water fight.
• Participants are welcome to go after their opposing courts or members of their own courts.
• Teams can consist of any/all court members.
• The fight will last until dusk, when all parties will be allowed a short feast before being returned to their previous positions in the world.
That's it. Those are the rules. Make a top level comment and state whether you'd like to play one on one or in a team. Or both. Enjoy your day of rest, Drabwurld.

Not that he's actually going to squirt a small child without fair warning, but, you know, give him a second to process.]
Not a bad throw.
no subject
Thank you, sir! [ We even know how to bow, after all, dad's a prince, and we must have proper manners! ]
Your hair is very pretty, why're you tying it up?
no subject
Because running with it down in an event like this means that nine times out of ten, it's going to smack me in the face and prevent me from seeing.
no subject
Oooh... Cano supposes that would be hard. But why don't you braid it then?
no subject
Plus the braid'll still smack me in the face.
[Waver is nothing if not honest sometimes. But now that he has a beat to think about it, he actually has no idea who he's talking to. The eyes are very disconcerting though, he should be able to place them. Should.]
no subject
Atto has that problem all the time! But Amil braids it for him so he doesn't get it caught in the forge - Cano can show you, if you like!
[ The problem is, of course, at least partially because Maglor has never been this happy in Drabwurld, without any trace of grief or sorrow or tragedy. And the piping treble hardly sounds like the adult. Also if Waver thinks this is basically an excuse for Maglor to play with his hair, he's absolutely right ]
no subject
[Waver knows the let-me-play-with-your-hair implications when he hears them. Goodness knows that the heir of the Archibald family (and his patron) trained him to know exactly when to sit down and pass the hairbrush when she was younger.]
no subject
...Cano can't do both? [ reluctantly ] 'Spose should play more then - Amil always says we should be outside more when the weather is good.
[ Big puppydog eyes ] If Cano promises not to get you any more, can Cano braid your hair later?
no subject
You know, we might make a good team. You're small and no one'll see you coming. I can be the distraction.
no subject
Oooh! Do you really think so sir? [ Oh oh, wait, what did atto always say about asking properly - have a polite little bow again Waver ]
U-um, if sir doesn't mind, then C... Makalaure would like the honor of playing this game with you.
no subject
[Waver offers his hand, rather than bow back.]
Shall we, then?
no subject
Thank you sir! Yes! [ He tugs a little, bouncing eagerly ] Where to, sir?
no subject
[Waver glances over his shoulder, analyzing the fight around them both.]
Why don't you pick the target?
no subject
They's all big peoples huh? Probably wouldn't notice Cano, if he's quiet. There - that one? She's talking talking, not looking
[ Maglor no, that's the Seelie Queen ]
no subject
[Gently steering away from bad ideas, rather than giving a flat out no, is the only course Waver is going to take for now.]
no subject
Okay, if monarchs are not allowed he guesses the dark lady who is also busy talking is also out. Oh well. ]
That one? [ He's pointing at where Will is dozing ]
no subject
It might be a little mean to wake him up. At least so suddenly.
If you were politely to wake him up, it might be a better idea. Do you have a smaller squirt gun, that might rouse him up, then make him fair game?
no subject
Cano knows where to find them! He saw some by the taps! [ tug tug tug at Waver's hand - come on! ]
no subject
He's looked sillier though.]
no subject
A child's counting song - something bright and silly about flowers and birds.
When they reach the taps he releases Waver and snags a squirt gun, turning to beam up at him proudly ]
Like this?
no subject
Hm. What's it's range like?
no subject
Not very far, it seems sir. [ a tip of the head ] Cano'd need to get in very close.
no subject
[Waver takes a beat to scan the area, eyes settling on a particularly large oak tree.]
That tree there, with the big trunk, I can shoot from behind.
no subject
Reaching his victim he pops up, announces ]
Got you!
[ pulls the trigger and then turns and flees back towards Waver, shrieking in half terrified half delighted laughter the whole way ]
sorry this got eaten by gmail somehow
there. He shoots a long, steady stream, pleased to hit the target. When his teammate is within hearing range, Waver simply calls out:]
Well done!
/pets haha, its fine! I am sorry for my slow
