Re:Dates and Prank Wars
Who: Keith, Shiro, and you!
When: See prompts
Where: Voltron House and Arito proper
What: The Prank War in the Voltron and friends household begins. Also dates and getting busted on one. (But was it really a secret or is Lance just that dense?)
Warnings/Notes: We tried so hard to keep back the gay spoilers. It lasted X tags.
Just A Quiet Evening (locked to Takashi Shirogane) - 9/29
[It was Shiro’s choice this evening, and thankfully everyone else seems to be out or in their rooms by the time both are about to leave the house looking… well, halfway decent and decidedly not in work uniforms or job armor. It’s a small miracle, despite the fact it’s still casual clothing. Keith in particular is sporting a light jacket, a decent shirt that isn’t just another black t-shirt for once (it’s red plaid; no one should be surprised at this point). Plus, by this point he’s fairly certain everyone at home had gotten the subtle clues. (Oh, how wrong he is.)]
Ready? [He asks, waiting at the back door as Shiro approaches, a relaxed almost-smile playing at the corner of his lips yet it dances in violet eyes. He’s been looking forward to this all week.]
A Quiet Evening Interrupted (Locked to Takashi Shirogane and Lance) - 9/29
[All seemed to be going rather well, all things considered. For a college town, there was plenty of cafes to choose from. There was even a lovely window seat available when they arrived to the locally-owned cafe they’d decided upon. On the edge of town and surrounded by college housing, but cozy and inviting. Both are chatting quietly, relaxed and very much in their best yet-still-casual attire…
Keith’s smiling at some joke Shiro just told. What is this madness?]
The Pranks Begin… - 9/30
[Everything seemed to be going rather well this morning. The sun was shining, the desert insects were still buzzing, the college kids were likely still nursing a hangover from illegal drinking the night before… It was the start of a good day and nothing could go wrong.
Except for one teeny tiny little thing: And that thing being vibrant green dye going down the drain as Keith showered. He stepped out of the shower, drying off when he noticed some of the color come off on the towel.]
… [He sighs, wraps the towel around his waist, and goes back into their bedroom proper to get his slate.] Very funny, Shiro.
[Except his expression says anything but that. Instead, he takes the device, walks back into the bathroom, and slams the door.]
Careful this morning Lance. Someone decided to start some pranks.
[Then followed by a mass text to everyone in the house (except Shiro):]
Whatever you do tomorrow, don’t sit in Shiro’s usual chair at the table.
[He has a plan, but that will have to wait. He turns the water back on and ups the temperature to as hot as he can handle before going back in, leaving the device on the counter and the bathroom door locked.
...and is very, very grumpy when he can't get all the green out before work. He sits down at the table, fully dressed, irritated and very much attempting not to show it. He's not very successful. Especially if someone starts snickering.]
Not. A word.
A Poked Lion is Never A Good Thing - 9/30
[He tried so hard and got so far, but in the end his hair is still a dark shade a green. Keith seems irritated by this fact as he wanders the local shops in Arito and, later in the afternoon, Sparks Golsaucia. In Arito he’s looking at… shampoo? Especially since a certain someone was so kind to add hair dye to his.
And then, in Sparks Golsaucia... huh. That certainly is some super duty glue he’s looking at. What ever could that be used for?] “WARNING: Do not use acetone to remove”... Perfect.
[... Uh oh.]
Wildcard
[Want to run into Keith while he’s still wandering around before the fifth and thus while his hair is still green? Feel free to poke me! He’ll likely be working on his Custom Job still, along with flying and working on trade routes.]

[Water drips from his sky blue hair that's plastered to his face. He'd been climbing back into the shower when the cry rang out. His towel is wrapped tightly about his waist and he makes his way over.
At the sight of the fake alien monster he sighs. The sword is propped up against the wall as he reaches for Keith's arm. He knows Keith will race after Lance and with good reason. If he's successful he'll pull him back towards him.]
I know it's tempting but stay here.
at least lance would have died without regrets. would have, if keith hadn't rolled a 2...
Then there's a hand on his arm, and he freezes midstep. Again, not nearly enough to snap him out of it, but close.
That's when he feels the dampness and solid muscle against his back through his clothes and he blinks; eyes widening. Well, this is happening.] I'm going to punch him.
[Not kill, not yet. That was just rude.]
no subject
Let him think he got away with it.
[He has a lot of good industrial glue to purchase and to run back over his ideas. All in all, Lance will get a fancy chandelier. Of his own shoes. He lowers his voice, leaning forward enough to speak into Keith's ear.]
Give it a few days. Then we'll both get him.
no subject
... I'll give him two. [He says in a low tone to match Shiro's; still staring at the door, frowning.] Still have some of that glue I used on the chair.
[As he says this, he realizes he likely signed his own doom later. But better to use what they already have then buy more. He might also be forming an idea of his own. Does he go for the beauty products again? Or, does he go for something else he knows Lance will interact with. Hm, decisions decisions...
Granted, he's a little distracted.]
And you uh, may want to check your towel.
no subject
Right. [This is embarrassing but not the end of the world. Shiro takes another step back. The glue could be used for Lance...and for Keith. He can set up a return fire of ass to chair.]
...I'll go finish my shower.
no subject
[It is indeed embarrassing, though he guesses it could have been worse. (At least Lance didn't dye his things, too.) They're both going to get Lance back for this later. That's the only thing that keeps him from chasing after Lance right this second. That, and the slight mess the prank caused.]
I'll just... clean this up.
[He sighs, before getting to work on that.]
no subject
He has dye to wash out of his hair.]
