[glitchinthesystem]

WHO: Glitch, Gogo Tomago, Peter Quill, Dipper Pines, Mabel Pines, Agent Maine, Wasabi, Hiro Hamada, Tadashi Hamada, Marian Hawke, Robin (Dick Grayson), Wally West, Edward Elric, Ken Amada
WHERE: Outside of De Chima at Paintball Wasteland
WHEN: Wednesday, August 5th, afternoon
WHAT:Glitch is having a late birthday. Team battle of paint happens.
WARNINGS: teens and childish adults wailing on each other with fake guns, chaos ensues

Thanks to the work of Gogo, Glitch is finally doing something for his sixteenth birthday. The idea of pounding on people with paintballs is something Glitch couldn't pass up. They found an arena outside of De Chima.

While Glitch had control over the majority of the guest list, Gogo has invited some unknowns to the birthday teen. Suspicion is there, but, he's assuming nothing nefarious is about to happen.

So, grab your gear, bring your own, get a gun or or bow and get ready for Glitch's first ever birthday party.

Because he's a sad sack and you might as well pity him.

[From a bit over there, raising her voice so he can hear her, but not yet looking up from her gear check.]

I told you twice, Wally.

[runningstart]

I didn't know he was the same guy! [yelling from over here is fine right]

[maglevflash]

There aren't many guys named Glitch around here, so far as I've seen. [He clearly doesn't pay attention.]

[runningstart]

I didn't know his name was Glitch in the first place! Ugh. Gogo, you're seriously friends with this guy?

[maglevflash]

I know him. He helped Hiro. What's a party compared to that?

[She'll probably be friends with Glitch by the time the party ends, but you can only engage it tactical warfare for so long before you start to be fond of someone.]

What's wrong with him anyway? [Like she doesn't know.]

[runningstart]

[Oh yeah, he was there wasn't he? Wally kind of had tunnel vision during that whole thing. Anybody he didn't already care about, he forgot.]

He's a jerk. He cheated me. Said he'd race me, bet me a hundred bucks on it and then took the freakin' Porters.

[maglevflash]

Did you tell him he couldn't?

[Though she didn't invite him just to take sides here, so she waves her hand to clear the air.]

Consider this a chance to get him back, then. You're going to be in a forest holding a weapon of mass destruction. What could go wrong?

[runningstart]

[Wally throws up his hands in frustration when she asks him that. WHY DOES EVERYONE ASK THAT? WHY DOES EVERYONE ASSUME YOU HAVE TO OUTLINE THAT THE OTHER PERSON NOT BE A CHEATING ASSHOLE? All of you are godless sinners and you all lack morals and sportsmanship.

...but that is an interesting proposition.] I'm pretty sure painball guns don't count as weapons of mass destruction, but you have a good idea there. Y'know- actually, that's a great idea.

Hey Glitch! [Sooo tempted to make a joke out of that. Valiantly holds off until he wins later of course.] How about we up the ante? Double or nothing that I get you before you get me! [And he's absolutely gonna cheat. Since Glitch cheated once already, it's only fair.]

[maglevflash]

[This is going to end in a complete disaster.

...

She should have brought popcorn.]

[ No, Wally, we are not sinners. We're just smarter than you.

Glitch is just still going over the gun at this point when he hears his name getting called. He perks up a bit and see's who it is. Oh, boo. Is he about to get yelled over nothing again?

Wait, no? A bet? Glitch mulls it over for maybe about a second. Could he afford it? Yeah, definitely. He's got his own little hoarded stockpile of stolen money... ]

Yeah, sure, why not? No skeeving out if you lose this time! We have witnesses! The contract is made!

[ And watch him play fair this time, if only to make the victory more the sweeter. ]
