Deep Enough In The Rocky Bits For Loud Noises Coming From There To Not Be Terrifying | Friday Noon
Honestly, if you really considered everything that had gone on this summer, it was kind of surprising that Topher hadn't done this sooner.
First of all, this summer had been crap, full of people leaving and Topher being evil and oh yeah, more people leaving. Different people. This would've been the perfect stress relief at any of his old schools, where he wouldn't have given it a second thought, but here, where he wasn't even all that likely to get in trouble for it, it was even more appealing. Plus he'd just taken a class that had gone into this kind of stuff, just a little. Or he'd done extra research that hadn't necessarily been encouraged, strictly speaking. Either way: knowledge.
All that, and he'd met someone who liked to play with explosives months ago. How had it taken them even this long?
"Okay," he muttered to his companion see what I did there?. "Think we've scared off all the teal deer?"
[[for one, and then another less-shirt-wearing one! and to be clear, there is not actually going to be dangerous stuff going on; the 'splosives are teeny and will mostly be tossed at rocks and stuff. but people are welcome to overhear from elsewhere if you'd like.]]
