planeocracy[As part of the celebration of 0134 being promoted up the faction ranks, there's been minor construction work throughout the Grounds. After a week, a magnificent fountain with waterslides is in the center of the grounds with unusually bubbly water shooting out the spout. There is a plaque]
"The Bounty of Water: A Lost and Recovered Work of Bergholt Stuttley Johnson. Dedicated to the hardworking Agents of 0134"
[However, soon after the installation, everyone from Enforcer down will notice their clothes disappearing from the laundry, and if one walks by the fountain at the right time they'll see socks, shirts, and unmentionables shooting high up into the sky, without concern for colors or dyes]

Date: 2012-01-15 03:59 am (UTC)Err, until a high-velocity pair of boxer shorts with hearts on them violently intercepts her flight pattern, sending her spiraling with a crash into the water below.
Fortunately, she's able to reach the shallows with relative ease. UNfortunately, when she stands she bears a strong resemblance to one of those old-tyme spinning clotheslines; bits of soggy silk and waterlogged cotton and gods-know-what else are hanging from her limbs; there's even a particularly skimpy string-and-lace dangling from one drooping antenna...

Date: 2012-01-15 04:06 am (UTC)Considering the fountain has water slides, it was sort of reasonable that her boss of sorts would be in the water. But she didn't look like she was particularly having fun. She hefts her bag and helmet and other maybe-not-so-waterproof things to the ground and moves closer, wading.
"What'd you lose?" Beat. "...clothes, got it. I mean which ONE did you lose?"

Date: 2012-01-15 04:20 am (UTC)She decides it's probably better not to make a point of it, and goes splashing after it herself.
Lucca isn't a bad swimmer. With some luck, the eddies, currents, vortexes and water spouts will subside long enough for one them to get a hold of it. Maybe.

Date: 2012-01-15 05:15 am (UTC)Is that Lucca out there on the deeper end of the fountain. waving to him? She's lacking her glasses and she looks well and truly soaked, but otherwise okay. Happy, even. She looks like she's collecting the errant scraps of fabric, which trail around her in swishy rainbows on the surface as she treads water.
"Isn't this crazy? They installed this thing practically overnight!"

How did they fuck this up?!

Date: 2012-01-15 05:40 am (UTC)She makes a few freestyle-looking strokes his way, worried. Once Ed gets over the water up his nose and the sting of chlorine he'll probably notice that Lucca's only wearing that sarashi-and-shorts combo...
"It's more than just the pipes! This whole thing has kind of knotted up the dimensional membrane. Be careful, I don't want you getting in over your head, and I mean that literally in this case."

Date: 2012-01-15 05:52 am (UTC)What on earth could make Midna create a sound like that? If Ridcully looks, he'll find her without her cloak, and morosely clutching a pink blob of filmy fabric. Filmy pink fabric... with a glowing cyan lining? Wait...
"My cloak! How did it get here? How did the colors run on it? It doesn't even have a color! IT'S MADE OF SHADOW, for goddess' sake!"

Date: 2012-01-15 02:54 pm (UTC)"Are you looking for something in here?" She says, combing back her waterlogged mop of hair and looking sort of through him since she doesn't have her glasses.

Date: 2012-01-15 05:38 pm (UTC)She eyes her cloak, then casts an even more hateful glance at the sun, then decides to tough it out and slaps the pinkened cloak onto her back like an enormous electric tongue.
"Something tells me this isn't the first time his works have made people want to turn him inside-out. Is there a line I need to stand in?"

Date: 2012-01-15 07:46 pm (UTC)He shrugged. As he stepped to a slightly shallower spot, it became clear that while he was not in the same state of undress as Lucca, his shirt was soaking wet and kinda clingy.

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH!
