"Excellent idea!" Allegra cheered gleefully, giving her roll a good toss and hooking it over the rafter directly above her. Her lack of experience was evident and she grinned sheepishly as she caught it again. "I should probably keep hold of one of the ends, huh?"

Kellen grinned. "Yeah, you probably should. Doesn't do much good to have the whole thing caught up in the rafters, does it now? Or come falling back down because of the weight..."
He tossed his own roll into the air, aiming for the chandelier. When he missed his target, he realized it was probably a good thing-- "It's probably not a good idea to throw it at lit candles either, is it."

Allegra laughed, tossing her roll of toilet paper correctly this time. "I was thinking that too," she said. "But I was wondering if putting a fire-proof charm on it was getting to close to that dorkiness line."

"Man, we're not very good at this, are we," Kellen said, a little disappointed. "That's probably pretty dorky. Okay. Not dorky: stay away from fire with paper, hold on to end of paper....um, is there anything else?"

"How dorky is it that I'm thinking we should save the quilted stuff for the purpose it was intended?" Allegra asked, looking at her roll. Using one-ply for this would probably be a better use of resources.

"We've got to stop thinking about that now. No concern for the future, or for the consequences. Live for the moment!" Kellen exclaimed gleefully as he successfully threw his toilet paper roll over one of the rafters and quickly went to retrieve the rest.

"Carpe Diem!" Allegra shouted as she tossed her roll again, this time making sure she had held on to the end of the paper. She watched happily as the roll sailed up and over one of the beams, leaving a trail of tissue behind it. She caught it easily and tossed it once more, letting large loops and swags hang from the rafters.

Kellen let out a laugh. "This is a lot more fun than it looked when I was dorky," he commented between throws. "But I am dorky no more, and therefore, I think this is fun. And the best part is? Nobody will suspect this was us. They'll probably blame it on Drew," he said, adding another laugh. Sure, he felt bad that the younger boy seemed to be the scapegoat...but he'd enjoy his moment while he had it.

"Oh, don't say that," Allegra told him as she tossed her roll up and over the rafters again. "Then I'm going to start feeling guilty about it and I'll want to clean it up before we're even finished."

Kellen rolled his eyes good-heartedly. "Aw, come on. I'm not saying we don't take the blame--nay, not the blame, the credit--for it, we should take it. But still, it's just something nobody would expect us to do. And it's not like it's hurting anybody, right? Just some innocent fun."

"Wreckless and safe. Isn't that what we were going for?" Allegra asked, admiring their work so far. "And we should take credit. I mean, what's the point unless everyone knows we did it, right? Besides, Drew gets enough heat for his own stunts. I doubt he needs ours too."

"Right," Kellen agreed. He decided to see if he could get the TP to hang over one of the picture frames on the side of the wall. "I'm kind of looking forward to everybody's surprised faces." First attempt: failed. He'd have to get to a better angle. "First when they see the room, and then when they see it was us." Second attempt: successful. It even got a 'Tsk!' out of the subject of the portrait.

"That'll be fun," Allegra agreed, deciding to take care of the tsking portrait by streaming another layer of toilet paper over it. "You know, I think that's an improvement!" she quipped, grinning as the portrait expressed it's disapproval.

Kellen walked a few steps sideways, admiring the draping around the portrait. "Hmm," he mused. "I think it needs more." He took the end of the roll and wrapped it around the rest of the frame. "That's better, it's more complete that way." He glanced around the room to see if he could find anything else to 'improve', and suddenly, he saw it: the comfy chair. Without a second thought he went to work, wrapping the chair as mummy-like as he could.

Allegra laughed as she watched Kellen attack the chair with toilet paper. "Oh, Hiro and Drew are going to love that," she said. She looked around for something else to decorate when the perfect victim came to mind. "Dibs on Stoney!" she cried out, running for the front entrance.
