I'm bored...

Therefore, I am declaring that there shall be a pick-up softball game out on the diamond in forty-five minutes. I'd try to make this a 'no powers, darnit' event since everyone else pretty much has the advantage over me, but with this crew, I rather doubt that's going to be very successful. Oh well. :)

So I'm not allowed to be the entire opposing team, is what you're saying?

I call left field.

I'll play if someone makes sure to explain the details. I've heard the basics by now, I think....

Woohoo! I'm in! Miles already ran off to find you, too! ;)

Oh, come on, aside from the perfect split-second coordination, I'm not all that good an infielder and I can't pitch anything but fastballs, so you'd probably win eventually. :)

If someone will explain the rules properly, I'll give it a go. (Do my powers count as an unfair advantage? I'm afraid I'm not at all familiar with the game.)

Not a great softball player, so unless you really need someone to make up the numbers, I think I'll be in the stands for this one.

Not unless you try teleporting around the bases. It's not that hard to get the hang of, you'll get used to it pretty quick. :)

Doug, dear? I do not think that I have any appropriate shirts for softball. I was thinking I might borrow the one you bought in Denver?

Heh. True.

You've made me a very happy Paige. I won't even try out my rubber husk.

You bring new meaning to the old "I'm rubber, you're glue" thing, you know.

Aw. MA hardly considers me a threat, chickpea. At least, I hope so.

Oh gracious, MA? Are we going to have to have Deep Serious Talks between innings?

We really need to find another metamorph.

[identity profile] x-crowdofone.livejournal.com 2004-08-04 12:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Another nonspecific one, you mean. We've got Rahne, after all. :)

[identity profile] x-shinobi.livejournal.com 2004-08-04 12:51 pm (UTC)(link)
I've never metamorph I didn't like.

I'll go hit myself with a rolled-up newspaper, now. You have fun with your game, luv. Kick their arses for me.

[identity profile] x-foliate.livejournal.com 2004-08-04 12:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course! Silly me.

[identity profile] x-foliate.livejournal.com 2004-08-04 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
*winces* Ooo... It's a good thing I'm immune to bad jokes or I don't think I'd ever be able to use my mutation again.

And what a shame that would be.

(Don't worry, I will.)

Sounds like a laugh. Samson says it's time to stop hiding any way, and there's that whole 'worshipping the sun' thing. I'll just finish off healing my hands and I'll be down.

I'm there

Like I wouldn't be there for a game of softball. Can I pitch?
