Room 204 [afternoon]

[momslilassassin]

Ben didn't have classes on Wednesdays, so he normally went out on a nice long run before climbing the Rocky Bits (yes, for fun, and yes, without safety equipment), so it wasn't entirely unheard of for him to come home with a few scratches on his arms or legs.

Today, though, he was limping heavily and cursing under his breath about big sharp teeth and stupid kriffing bunnies.

He was a Skywalker. Of course something had tried to eat him.

Comments

[momslilassassin]

"Exactly," Ben said with a smile, happy to see the thing disappear. "I don't like things around my neck."

[endsthegame]

Ender snorted softly. "You might want to practice patience with it, if this keeps up," he said, holding up the tie. "Or you could seclude yourself near Selkie Cove, tie it around your eyes, and pretend you're a blind Jedi hermit who likes to float rocks."

[momslilassassin]

"Depends if you'd be visiting said blind hermit," Ben replied.

[endsthegame]

"I could be persuaded to stop by for a swim every now and again," Ender said, sitting back on the bed.

[momslilassassin]

"Tempting," Ben said, grinning. "But I'm not sure there's a lot out there that's secluded. Those bunnies are getting everywhere."

[endsthegame]

"You're going to come back with bite marks every time you step out of that door," Ender concluded.

[momslilassassin]

"Now I know to watch my ankles," Ben said. "I'll be more careful."

[endsthegame]

"They are terribly dainty ankles."

[momslilassassin]

"I will kick you with my dainty ankles," Ben threatened.

[endsthegame]

Ender picked up one of his dainty ankles and lifted it a few inches. "This one?"

[momslilassassin]

Ben poked Ender in the stomach with the other foot. "No."

[endsthegame]

Ender responded by tickling right under Ben's knee. "Too bad."

[momslilassassin]

Ben squeaked, then blushed because of the squeaking. "Hey!"

[endsthegame]

"Sorry, what was that?"

[momslilassassin]

"It was my ferocious rabbit attack cry," Ben said.

[endsthegame]

"I'm terrified," Ender said, making use of the distraction to capture Ben's other ankle.

[momslilassassin]

Ben let him grab the other ankle, mostly to see what he'd do with them. "And you're not even a rabbit," he observed.

[endsthegame]

As it turned out, he was going to... pull them over into his lap, pressing his thumbs into the sole of one of Ben's feet. "Years of Jedi training at work," he said. "Wonder if it works on Sith."

[momslilassassin]

"Mmmmmm," Ben groaned softly, closing his eyes. "There's a different attack cry for the Sith. It's less squeaky."

[endsthegame]

"More of a dull roar?" Ender asked, sounding amused.

[momslilassassin]

"You calling us dull?" Ben replied, grinning.

[endsthegame]

"I'm just asking for a description of this war cry," Ender said, moving his hands along Ben's foot.

[momslilassassin]

"That's nice," Ben said with a little sigh.

"...That's not the war cry, by the way."

[endsthegame]

"Good, because it would be stupidly ineffective," Ender said, moving to the other foot. "Well, on anyone but me."

[momslilassassin]

"And if you were a Sith, I'd have a whole host of other problems," Ben replied.
