Mischief and Mayhem Club, Meeting #2, Monday Night, 11 pm, TA Lounge

[intraspective]

A figure with an extravagant mask on, and wearing a cloak was the first into the lounge that evening. As such, and taking it upon herself (as the figure was a girl, you see, though the cloak hid most of that), she set up for the meeting and awaited the rest of the crew.

Tonight, she decided, she’d lead. After all, it had been said that they’d take turns. Once everyone had hopefully arrived, she stood up to call the meeting to order. Who better than a Princess, after all?

She'd just opened her mouth to speak when...

Tyler	Tyler had been watching the masked figures gather from a shadowy vantage point in the hallway. When it seemed like no one else was coming, he opened the door, strode in, and perched on a table where most of the group could see him. No mask, no robe, just himself. "Hey guys," he said, leaning forward to look them over. "Am I late?"
Princess Butterfly	Princess Butterfly blinked and stared at him for a moment--oh, crap they'd already been found--before raising her chin imperiously. "You weren't invited," she said smoothly, scrambling to remember his last name and failing miserably, "Mr. Tyler." It was Tyler-sensei, but that'd give away her identity really quick.
Tyler	"Oh, nuts, and I thought my invitation just got lost in the mail," Tyler said, feigning upset. "Look, you go writing on the sidewalk in front of school, odds are one of the teachers will notice. You're just lucky it was me. I think this will be fun." He appraised the group thoughtfully. "I have to say, nice work on the upside-down common room -- that was you, right? So what's the second act?"
Princess Butterfly	Princess Butterfly was going to give Mercury a bit of a Look for that one really. So not her fault, seriously. But at least he wasn't kicking them out, or taking them to Principal Winchester. "Still under debate," she said, with a glance at the rest of the group, "we're contemplating something for the parents this coming weekend, nothing major--mix-matched drawers and switching clothing around. For other pranks ideas are tentative, but include switching all the dorm room numbers around and seeing how long it would take people to notice, or spray-painting the sidewalks blue and covering them with fish."
Tyler	"Huh," Tyler said. Nothing harmful, nothing that targeted anyone in particular, nothing he needed to go to the principal with -- especially not with him as a guiding hand. "I like the fish one. Especially if you're good enough artists to convince people it's really water and they get all nervous. Dorm room numbers, no one would care. Drawers have possibilities, especially if you swapped the underwear." He gave a little restless shrug, started walking round the room. "I'm not here to be a narc, by the way. And I'm not here to run things. You run things. I make sure nobody gets hurt." A beat. "And I don't wear a freaking mask."
Princess Butterfly	That was good enough for her, really. Princess Butterfly could only hope it good for the rest of them as well. "It shall be as you say then." A beat. "Mom." And she was so going to keep calling him that. And, come to think of it, she was going to get them all to call him that. "His codename is Mom." Pure innocence, really.

[Preplayed with the totally awesome tyler_back. Meeting is NFB, and for those who know who they are only, please! Wait for the OCD is up! Plot your hearts out!]

"Wouldn't that reek?" Mercury shuddered.

"Do you have the money for that much rum?"

"It'd take some tricky timing," she admitted. "But it would be a nice prank if pulled off properly."

Re: Plot - Parent's Weekend

"...do you seriously want to try drawing on the faces of some of the parents we're likely to get 'round here?"

Re: Plot - Parent's Weekend

[intraspective]

"Possibly," Princess Butterfly mused. "We might be able to swing that even at the hotel--switch the hotel numbers 'round while they're all sleeping. People'd notice that just 'cause their rooms aren't the ones they're used to."

"Fresh fish don't reek," Wolfman pointed out. "They're a little fragrant but in a good way. After they sit for a while... Well, I'M not planning on cleaning it up. We can keep it a ways away from the dorms."

"...Not as such, no... Especially not after all the money I laid out for our last bit. Don't we have any bored rich people in the group?"

Re: Plot - Parent's Weekend

[intraspective]

"Not me," despite her working three jobs technically, "but that's a good point. Maybe we ought to start a club fund for pranks."

Re: Plot - Parent's Weekend

[the_merriest]

Mercury cleared her throat awkwardly. "I kinda ... do," she offered. "Have the money for that much rum."

The leftover Save the World fund was just sort of sitting there.

Shotgun nodded, though it was a little hard to tell with the mask and hood and all. "And that would be even more confusion."

Jo did some gaping, but really she was more relieved about which teacher it wasn't that caught them.

"No. We should have a fund." Red Demon frowned. "That way no one feels like they're carrying the whole burden of cost and no one can be pointed to as the main funder. We're all in it, if we do the prank or not."

Gyaaaah, Mr. Durden!

Francine didn't even know why she'd come back tonight; she wasn't planning on it. In hindsight the answer was clear: because the world liked to mess with her. She sighed, glad that she'd at least traded her turtleneck mask for one of the ones still left by the door. It was a heck of a lot easier to breathe while having your heart attack if you didn't have sweater-lint in your throat.

"Do they have to be real fish?" Wallflower asked, half grossed-out and half tenderhearted. "What about those red Swedish gummi fish?"

Re: Plot - Random Prank

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

"But that'll get sticky," Wolfman protested. Shhh, it totally made sense. His ears perked up at her voice. "...Wallflower?" he asked, poking a finger toward her. "Oooh, nice mask. Much better than a shirt, isn't it?"

Re: Plot - Random Prank

[thatsamilkshake]

"So much better," she agreed, mask bobbing rapidly. She'd chosen one of the least attention-getting one she could find, but she did go for the one with a flower attached, since it seemed to fit the name. "Wouldn't real fish get sticky too?"

Re: Gape At 'Mom'

Tyler seemed not to register the ducking immediately, but his eyes were aimed on Wolfman.

After he'd said a few words, Tyler waited for a break in the conversation to sidle over to him. "Hey, Sokka. Having fun?"

Re: Plot - Parent's Weekend

[tyler_gone]

Tyler raised his hand. "I'm banker," he declared. "That way, no one has to trust their life savings to someone wearing a mask."

Re: Gape At 'Mom'

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Wolfman jumped a little, and his head whipped around to stare at Professor Durden. After a moment, he recovered a little, and when he spoke his voice sounded much older and grumpier than it had before. "I don't know what you're talking about!" he protested. "MY name is Wolfman."

Re: Plot - Random Prank

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

"That's not the POINT!!!" Wolfman protested. "Real fish would be funnier!"

Red Demon raised an eyebrow and tilted her head. "Do you perhaps have a thing for live fish?"

Re: Gape At 'Mom'

[tyler_gone]

"Sure thing," Tyler said, and wandered off again, chuckling a little. "Wolfman."
