The Floor is Lava - Thursday, Period One

[wrongkindofsith]

The Danger Shop looked like a drunken unicorn had gone on a psychedelic rampage. Everything (including the jello) was an almost eye searing rainbow and there was a thick layer of (edible) glitter everywhere, including in the jello.

"It's meant to look like this," Cara lied blandly.

"Doing great there," Vi called out from the sparkly, sparkly lava which she totally hadn't accidentally-on-purpose thrown herself into when she realised she and Steph were the last two left.

Steph had been so intent on not falling in that she hadn't noticed that the rest of the competition was gone, much less Vi's totally accidental mishap.

"Rainbow glitter looks good on you," she said with a grin.

Good thing Vi had done badly enough the last few weeks to make it believable.

"Yeah?" she asked, grinning up at Steph. "Good thing, because it's gotten everywhere."

[drumsticksandd20s]

"And you're never getting rid of it now," Steph added with a very sad shake of her head. "So good thing you can rock it, huh?"

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

Vi snorted and held her hand out.
"You gonna help me up?"

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

Steph sighed. "I guess," she said, and reached out to grab Vi's hand.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"Love you." Vi felt a little bad about trying to pull Steph down into the lava with her, but not enough not to try doing it.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

Steph had halfway been expecting that, anyway.

"I know what you're --"

She went flying into the lava with a yelp.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi grinned at her. "Hey, you look good in rainbow glitter too."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

"Obviously," Steph replied, smirking and flicking a chunk of jello at her. "And now we both look extra awesome."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"Exactly," Vi said, ducking. "So really I just did you a favour."

Really, Vi?

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

"Really, Vi?" Steph asked, entirely unaware that there was any narrative for her to be echoing. "I guess I could just think of it as that sports thing where teams celebrate by pouring coolers of Gatorade over each other, but sparklier."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"I mean, I can help you clean up as well," Vi said, all innocence.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

Steph flicked another chunk of jello at her.

"You are terrible," she said fondly.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"Charming, I think you mean charming."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

"We're just pronouncing the same word two different ways," Steph informed her.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"Just so long as we're on the same page," Vi said airily.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

Steph reached out to give her a high five. "I mean, yeah."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi returned the high five, then curled their fingers together. "C'mon, let's actually get out of this lava."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

"I think I deserve a celebratory cupcake," Steph said as they picked their way out of the sparkly, squishy doom.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

"You do," Vi agreed. "They probably even have rainbow ones."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

"They better," Steph replied, and reached over to brush a bit of jello away from the space behind Vi's ear. "Since I've already been on both the Perk and JGoB's asses about having some for the festival."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi leaned into the touch slinging an arm around her sticky shoulders "And no one dares mess with my badass girl."

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[drumsticksandd20s]

Steph laughed and leaned against her. "You standing behind me cracking your knuckles and looking even more badass probably helps with that."

Steph, she didn't do that as a matter of course. Don't make it sound like that.

Re: Start! - Lava! 04

[giveittoyoursister]

She could if Steph wanted her to.

"Oh? Is that something you're into?"
