Pirate Radio Station [Friday afternoon]

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

It had taken just one student racing past with a water gun for Barbossa to figure out what was going on.

Which was why he was now oh-so-oblivously snoozing on his balcony, hat down over his eyes.

Ignore the many buckets around him. And the water balloons that were hiding in subtle locations. And the part where'd he been the water balloon ninja's pirate.

He was Barbossa. He'd never think of cheating.

Really.

[OOC: Bring it!]

Barbossa may have noticed a redhead trying to be sneaky.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

Willow might then have noticed a bucket of water being poured over the balcony by a definitely-not-asleep-now pirate.

The cackling kind of gave him away, too.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

Willow eeped. Then, because she thought ahead, she said "Oh no! The rum!"

Hey, she could cheat too.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

Barbossa totally fell for it.

"What about me rum?" he asked, spinning around to look back inside.

That was not terribly intelligent.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

A balloon went sailing up towards the balcony.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

...and hit Barbossa in the back of the head, knocking his fantastic hat askew.

"Oh, ye be an awfully brave wench," Barbossa said, spinning back around and reaching for another bucket.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"I was trying to help protect the rum!" Willow said, trying to look cute.

Instead of hiding. Clearly Willow's priority check had bounced.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

*sploosh* went the non-rum contents of the bucket over the side of the balcony.

"Hahahaha" went the pirate wielding said bucket.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Squeak!" went the redhead who just got hit with water.

*sail* went the balloon that she threw in her revenge.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

"Ack!" went the pirate, leaping out of the way.

"Mwhahaha" he continued as he dropped a balloon down from his perch.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

"Oh noes!" went the redhead as she scampered off into the streets, totally open for one last soaking before she vanished.

*Woosh* went the water balloon she threw to try to cover her escape.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

*Splash* went the balloon that bounced against the pirate's chest (oooh, wet-shirted pirate. You're welcome, ladies. Heh.) as he took a hit as a cost of firing two last balloons at the back of the fleeing redhead.

[willbedone.livejournal.com]

And verily one of those balloons did hit as the redhead fleed like a fleeing thing that must flee.

The park's absolutely soaking. So's pretty much everyone that's in there.

So Roxas heads on into the town to look for dry people. Of course he's fully stocked with watergun and balloons.

There might not be many dry people left, if he can ever get his aim right.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

Oh, what's that apparently asleep on his balcony?

It appears to be a very dry pirate!

Silly pirate.

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

It's rather odd for a pirate to be dry, or so Roxas thinks.

There's a grin, since Barbossa's the only person, sleeping or otherwise, that Roxas has seen in a state of un-wet.

And there's a water balloon flying in the pirate's direction. And Roxas is whistling oh-so-innocently. Ohhhh so innocently.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

And lo, thar be a pirate hitting the deck.

Well, concrete.

He skuttled--cackling to himself, naturally--to the balcony's fence and dropped a bucketful of water over the edge.

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

And if Roxas wasn't wet before, then he certainly is now.

It would have probably made more sense to hide somewhere other than underneath the balcony.

He splutters a few times, and comes out, dripping wet (even his spikes are lying flat), and looks up.

"You cheated."

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

"Pirate," Barbossa replied with a creeky grin.

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

There's a small glare, and then the tip of the watergun aimed at (and on course to hit) Barbossa.

"Big deal."

He grins, and lets loose the water.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

Barbossa sputtered for a moment before reaching down next to him for the garden hose that he used for his semi-annual bath.

"Indoor plumbin'," he commented with an evil smile, turning it on.

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

There's a moment before the water hits when Roxas' eyes are wide like saucers.

He doesn't quite have the brains to move before the water hits him, and stands blinking under the onslaught before moving aside, his feet squelching in his shoes.

And then there are some words that would make his mother faint.

Possibly Barbossa's mother, too.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

Barbossa laughed. "I be not thinkin' that be physically possible, whelp."

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

"You'd be surprised."

He has one water balloon left.

He aims for Barbossa's head.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

It hit Barbossa directly in the hat.

Oh no!

"Me hat!"

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

"Score!"

He grins for a minute, and then tips Barbossa a salute before backing up and starting to run.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

"Ye better run!" Barbossa hollered after him.

[orewahikari.livejournal.com]

Roxas thinks it's an awfully silly thing to yell, considering what he's doing, but... he doesn't stop.

His feet, after all, are still squelching, and it's probably going to take the best part of the week to get the water out of his shoes.

He'll settle for waving at Barbossa over his back as he heads back to the park to drop off his gun before heading back to the dorms.

That was so worth it.

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

And here came something small and green. And armed.

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

And there was something large and piratey. With a hose.

Guess which one's gonna win?

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"Ack!" The unexpected torrent knocked him off his feet. "Who, what where?"

[likeguidelines.livejournal.com]

There was snickering from above, then the sound of a door closing.

The pirate knew when to make a strategic retreat.

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

Robin wouldn't have been able to hop quite that high anyway, but he wondered how one went about getting back at a pirate.
