13th spell ~ [Voice | Action]

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[There's not much noise, not while Merlin's sneaking up on Arthur who's still in bed having a bit of a lie-in. It's time to wake up, and with today, Merlin has the perfect idea.

He stops on the side of Arthur's bed and looms over him with a big grin on his face, raising his hand and...]

Good morning, Arthur!

[Dropping a water balloon on him.

And then Merlin's taking off to head back outside, because he's not going to stay and face Arthur's wrath, and the phone records his laughter.

Arthur has two choices; get some of the breakfast in the kitchen, or follow Merlin to fight him.]

((OOC: Okay! So this is a catch-all post, in a way. Threads can occur at any time during the day and sort of everywhere but Merlin will mostly be around the center part of the City, and the fountain. I'm going to go on a slowatus tomorrow but I wanted to participate and I need the activity so orz I apologise, and please put up with me being slow if you tag in.))

[charring]

Never? Well, consider that tragedy rectified. [Even if water balloon fights weren't a thing in his time. But god is this fun. She eyes the water balloon in his hand with a smirk.] I could probably outrun you, just so you know.

[At least to the next bucket full of ammunition. She's unarmed.]

action:

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Oh?

We shall see.

[Heads up; he's throwing this water balloon at you now and then runs off to find more. It's on.]

action:

[charring]

[And a shriek, followed by a laugh. There's an almost successful attempt to dodge that results in Charlie's leg being hit but she's moving fast towards the nearest bucket. There are plenty of water balloons in there and she goes for a blue one, throwing it at Merlin with another laugh.]

action:

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[This is definitely not a squeak as Merlin jumps away from the balloon all too late and there goes his right side soaked. He laughs, though, and dives for a bucket to grab two balloons.]

Re: action:

[charring]

[Of course not. It was a manly shout of protest. Even if Charlie does find the squeak kind of endearing. Charlie launches another, ducking behind the bucket, peeking over the edge of it carefully. There's a water pistol in it and she'll just be reaching for it ever so carefully.]

action:

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[Merlin's been eyeing a few water pistols but he's not so sure he could really aim with them, even if he probably can aim well enough with anything. Water balloons just seem more efficient, and he's throwing one in her direction now.]

action:

[charring]

[Nope! Thwarted. The water balloon connects with her arm and she ducks again, without the water pistol she wanted. Instead, she grabs for the nearest water balloon, stands and fires.]

Having fun, Merlin?

[Because she's now soaked from head to toe and loving every second of it.]

action:

[destinedtobeunpopular]

[After being Arthur's servant for a few years, Merlin's gotten pretty good at dodging projectiles so she is not hitting with that one.]

I do believe I am.

[He's not even going to bother asking if she is, because that is more than obvious.]
