party post: hail the conquering heroes | outside, tree fort

Anyone in the main barroom or out by the lake today will be treated to an odd sight. Dozens of girls, shouting, squealing, running through the backdoor and across the lawn, arms laden with all manner of treats — and one boy, tied up, pulled along with them.

The gang makes their way to the forest, where a tree fort rises above the ground. It's quite a fancy fort, equipped with slingshots, water balloon launchers, and other weaponry and defenses. The interior paneling has some Cybertronian script on it. There's a tire swing outside fashioned from a tractor tire, a crow's nest, and the entrance may be had by ladder, drawbridge, or manual elevator. Inside there are comics, pudding snacks, and the sort of things you'd expect to see in a tree house. It was clearly designed by somebody who really loved their gadgets, and knew what they were doing.

Kate and Natasha have seized the property. Being outlaws in need of a hideout, and all.

"This way!"

Natasha is already inside, leaving all entrances open to the returning posse and offering cover from anyone who might be following. Once the snacks are secured and the prisoner is dealt with, everyone can breathe a huge sigh of relief.

And enjoy the fruits of their labor.


[ooc: give us one minute to set up some thread headings before tagging We're open for business! This post is wide, wide open to everyone — boy, girl, adult, child, animal, mineral, etc. The girls will be inside the tree fort, but it's completely visible from the ground for any who want to stop by and see what's going on, or sneak their way in. ^__^

She lights up. Her expression turns cautious, and then wary, and then hopeful, but there is a bit of lighting up going on.

He's seen the light! Or...he's on his way to, anyway. It's progress.

"We might need your help," she admits. "It'll take EVERYONE to defend this place."

He nods agreeably. He's somewhat seen the light, but mostly he's just seen that all the sweets are here and why would anyone want to give them back to the adults when he can have his fair share right now?

"I'm good with a water gun."

He's noticed the stash of water-weapons, including a really big one that he's been eager to try out.

"But you'd hafta untie me, of course."

She's torn. So very torn.





But finally, the little girl sighs.

"Alright. But I'm trusting you," she adds, sternly, as she hands him another bar of chocolate. You wouldn't want to disappoint this face, do you, Tommy?

As he takes the piece of chocolate, he looks her in the eye.

"You can trust me."

No, it's definitely not a face that he wants to disappoint, because she can do things with a dart gun, and plus he doesn't want to be tied up again. So he'll do this. If anything, he'll do this for the (rapidly melting) ice cream, and he'll do this for that spunky little cowgirl.
