Tabby's floating off to the side of the pool, sort of soaked, but pretending that she really isn't.

Tabby is wearing a swim suit. (The swim suit is yellow and pink and horrifically eye-searing, but hey, there's not actually that much of it, because it's a bikini, so as long as you don't look in her direction for too long, you should be okay.)

She is also wrestling with a pool noodle in a most undignified fashion. There is cursing and general insulting of seven generations of the noodle's ancestors going on right now.

Sam, you might have to save her from its noodley clutches before she manages to drown herself with it.

Girl can't swim worth a damn.

"Tabitha!" He shouts her way, storming over in his work clothes still. Yes, Tabby looks cute. Yes, Sam kind of wants to play swimming games with her and save her from the noodle. But, he has to play leader first. He has to be responsible.

"What the heck happened in here?!"

"We made a pool," Shatterstar answered for her. He too was in his bathing suit (a super 90s blue speedo) and was sitting on the floor just outside of said massive hole of water. He was tinkering with a piece of equipment that he had made specifically to get the pool pumping quickly enough to swim in. He also looked mighty proud of himself.

"Do you want to go swimming, Guthrie?"

Rictor knew exactly what he was doing. He was making a mess. While Cable and Domino were out of town, it was time for the kids to play because damn did they deserve it. He too was sporting a 90's style speedo, only his was in red. He had a pair of sunglasses pushed up onto his forehead in preparation.

When Sam came in, he turned and waved with a grin. "And I'm thinking about ripping open a sun roof!" Rictor said, pointing up at the ceiling. "Get some tanning going on in here, you know?"

He nudged Star a little. "I made a hole in the ground real quick, and Star put together a machine that'd pump water into it. Don't worry," He waved off, "We'll have it closed off before Dom and Cable get back to bitch at us. When else are we gonna get a chance to have fun like this, huh?"

POSTING ORDER: SAM TERRY TABBY STAR RIC? ahhmahgawd June 8 2009, 15:15:35 UTC

"The roof---" Sam wasn't actually so shocked by this. Well he was, but he just---them doing something like this wasn't surprising. But them making a hole in the floor wasn't something that would go over well with Cable and Domino. Lord. What the hell was he going to do with his friends?

"Ah guess it does look a little fun." He admitted. "As long as we clean it up."

He paused. "Have y'all been working on this all day? Where'd you get patio lanterns?"

SOUNDS GOOD BB is_more_sonic June 8 2009, 17:50:51 UTC

Terry had been busy gaping behind Sam. And like Sam it wasn't out of shock; this was just the type of thing their team would do. It was more incredulity at how quickly they'd moved.

"Sam!" She scolded when he'd agreed, glancing out over the pool. She waved a hand. "How exactly do ye expect we're gonna get rid of all this water? Sure, Rictor can close the hole in the ground, but what about the floor? Who's going to be able to repair a giant hole in the middle of the floor?"

Nate and Dom were sure to notice that. I mean, it was a wooden floor. Those things never just got holes in them for no reason.

Looking between them both, Shatterstar simply shrugged before getting to his feet. "We got the lanterns from someone's backyard. I most certainly was not going to spend money on such things!" he rolled his eyes and scoffed at that. "As I said the other day, I wanted to go swimming! So we made a pool."

And it was a good one too! His mechanics had already made it clean and safe, and Rictor's powers made sure it was sturdy. They also managed to get their hands on a diving board and he was going to make it extra springy so that he could do seven flips at least.

The mention of closing it when Dom and Cable got back made 'Star frown though; he couldn't help it. "I already broke the floor twice before anyways! And technically, Theresa, the pool is like training and Cable did say we have to train. He just did not say how! Swimming is excellent cardio workout."

True facts.

I wanna reply to this ahhmahgawd June 10 2009, 01:54:05 UTC

"Oh mah lord." Sam groaned. Terry was right. There really was no way of cleaning up a damn pool that was in the middle of the room. These guys were insane! Sam and Terry couldn't even go out for a couple hours without having the base go to hell.

"That's a good way to explain it to him." Sam mused. "Ah tell ya what, 'Star. You can tell 'em that when they get back!"

He turned his head to Terry. "Ah know this is a mess, girl, but we might as well enjoy it for a little. There ain't no point in lettin' it go to waste."

He paused. "Sides. Y'all deserve a vacation too."

ahaha fuck, guess who forgot to effing track this post~ ohexplodable June 11 2009, 00:44:37 UTC

Tabby ran through a series of emotions going from "Shit he saw me" to "Oh hell, I look horrible" to "Wait wait wait, noooo, I can make this work" and finally managed to land on: "Oh fuck it, I will make this work because I am Tabitha goddamn Smith and I am sex on two legs and I am wearing a bikini so there".

She conveyed this emotion by tipping her sunglasses down her nose so she could look over the rims at Sam and smile cutely.

"Awesome! 'Cause, like, dude we totally haven't had a big group relaxation thing in ages and the pools here anyway, so cleaning it up right away's just a dumb idea and don't I look great in this swim suit, you know I do and Irish over there'll look great too, although Terry if you invite Panda-Face over, I'll blow him up, so fair warning's given an' all that! And, uh..."

She trailed off, having talked her way out of a legitimate train of through. Of course, this being Tabby? She didn't really need one of those. So, she flug her hands up in the air, excitedly ( ... )

its okay bb. We'll put the order back together now. XD Tabby, Star, Ric, Sam, Terry xf_shatterstar June 11 2009, 04:43:36 UTC

Tabitha's flailing splashed them, and 'Star looked down at her with annoyance. "You need to learn how to swim. You would die if there was ever a flood, I am sure of this."

Though the idea of any panda faces coming over was disheartening. Who was the spot face that she referred to? The closest person that Shatterstar could think of resembling a panda was Reaper, but when did he get here?? Last time 'Star saw him he kept losing limbs. That man was such a fool!

Still ignoring Tabby, 'Star stepped away from her incessant splashing and mused to himself. "Do you think Cable would get mad if we ran a Slip N' Slide across the floor?"
