Freedom Arms | Tuesday

A shipment of paintball guns and ammo came in today. York had no recollection of ordering them and it didn't seem like the type of thing Delta would encourage but he wasn't about to complain. He immediately loaded one and kept it behind the counter. Next time Wash came in here that bitch was gonna get splattered with paint.

What a coincidence. Wash was in need of some paintball guns for his class.

He wasn't, however, expecting an ambush when he showed up at the shop. Well. He was because he was armed, but not from York. Or with a paintball gun. "Are you actually doing work?"

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

York looked up at Wash and smirked. There was only a brief second between that and him grabbing a paint handgun and aiming in the area of Wash's nipple. The right one 'cause there was a chance he'd miss the left.

So to answer Wash's question: No.

Well, hopefully he was okay with Wash pulling a gun on him for that. And then immediately shout in annoyance at the paintball. "What the fuck, York?!"

His voice went up in the usual, adorable rage.

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

York just burst out laughing. Which was, of course, the sane reaction to a gun in your face.

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

When you came from Project Freelancer, it sort of was.

Wash sighed, staring up at the ceiling like it would give him the emotional fortitude to put up with this shit. "You're such an asshole," he said, putting the gun away.

For now.

"Oh man that was so good," he said, still laughing. "Your face. Your shirt!"

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"I'll get you back for that," Wash said, taking a deep, soothing breath. "I really will."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, sure you will," he said, wiping a tear from his good eye. "I believe that."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"You also owe me a shirt."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"Nah." Please, like he was gonna do that.

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"Asshole."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"You should know what is in store for you when you come here," York said. "This was a preventable incident."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"It's friendly fire," Wash shot back.

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"It's paint."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"There's still friendly fire in paintball."

How else would York have gotten that nice eye scar?

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"Aww, are you saying you're hurt by the harmless paint?" he asked with a fake pout.

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

Wash did the only mature thing and flipped him off. "I need paintball guns for my class anyway."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

"You got money?"

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"...or you could share them out of the kindness of your cold, black heart."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

York tiled his head. "That doesn't seem like a good way to run a business."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"Or maintain a friendship."

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

He rolled his eyes. "Blackmail, I see."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

"Blackmail's an ugly word, York." But accurate.

[no-i-in-york.livejournal.com]

York sighed. "I guess I can let you borrow some."

[worstofalltime.livejournal.com]

Wash grinned at that, almost over the ruined shirt. "It'll be fun. I'm running the students through the scenarios from the simulation soldiers."

Though it kept glitching.
