Kellen glanced over his shoulder as Allegra ran out the door. Man, that's a good one, he thought admiringly. He continued to wrap the chair as meticulously as he could. In fact, he was almost done with it when he ran out of toilet paper. "Darn it," he muttered aloud. He should have charmed a duplicate roll before he'd undone it all. He thought about Accio!ing a new one, but decided against it; after all, who knew WHERE it would come from?"

Allegra happily hummed to herself as she tossed a stream of paper over Ole' Stoney's head. The gargoyle didn't seem to care much for his new attire, but at least wasn't making swipes at her.

I guess I'm done, Kellen decided. He wandered out to admire Allegra's work with their guard statue. "So how's it going out here? Whoa, Stoney, that's a good look for you, buddy."

"I don't think he likes it much," Allegra said, standing back a little from her masterpiece. She was about to toss her last bit of paper on the statue and instead decided to toss it onto Kellen. "There. All done," she said happily.

"Hey no fair! I'm out of ammo! I can't retaliate!" Kellen insisted as he grabbed the toilet paper that rested on his shoulder. "Hmm, maybe now I can," he said, rolling the paper into a little ball and throwing it back at her.

"Oh, that's SO not fair!" Allegra cried out indignantly, tossing the empty roll at him. She'd have to find some more toilet paper and quickly if he was planning on fighting back. Too bad the other rolls were still in the bathroom.

"Hey! You started it!" Kellen insisted with a grin as he caught the empty roll. "Turn about is fair play! All's fair in love and war! And all that other stuff!" He tossed it back at her, glancing around to see if any toilet paper was hanging near enough for him to grab should he need reinforcements.

Allegra jumped up and grabbed a low hanging streamer. With a quick flick of her wrist, she flung it at Kellen, letting it float down and land on him. Satisfied with her slight diversion, she ran for the bathroom, hoping to find another spare roll to use as ammo.

Kellen noticed the toilet paper falling onto him as it touched the top of his head and briefly covered his eyes. A moment later, he saw Allegra running off and a quick "Uh oh," escaped his lips. She was going for reinforcements. Well, he thought, I can't let that happen.
He quickly--well, as quickly as he could, it was rather heavy--moved one of the couches and then one of the chairs into a corner, creating a fort for himself. He jumped over the couch and grabbed as much of the toilet paper as quickly as he could reach it, pulling what he could down from the rafters, and jumped back into his fort. He'd be ready.

Allegra ran back down into the common room with aroll in both hands... and found it strangely empty. "Kellen?" she called out, puzzled at first until she noticed the furniture had been rearranged. She slowly made her way over and tentatively peeked to see if he was behind the couch, carefully getting a good streamer ready just in case.

"Attack!" he called as if he were rallying his troops. He jumped out from behind the couch and, hoping for the element of surprise, ambushed Allegra with much of his toilet paper arsenal. He started laughing. This 'safe recklessness' really could be fun.

If there were such thing as an expected surprise, this was it. She had figured Kellen was hiding behind the couch, but he still managed to startle her enough to make her giggle out a scream. Allegra did her best to retreat as he threw toilet paper at her, running to the other side of the room and trying to get as much furniture between her and him.

It dawned on Kellen that he and Allegra were doing a fair job of ruining their own decorations--there was now nearly as much toilet paper pulled down from the rafters and paintings as still hanging on it. Oh well, he thought. Besides, who would care besides them? The common room was unusually empty that day.
He followed Allegra as quickly as he could, though the jumping over the couch put him at a slight disadvantage--he hadn't been quite as graceful as he'd planned. Standing up, he ran after the girl, making sure not to trip again.

Kellen's trip made Allegra laugh harder even though it looked like it had hurt. She was about to call off the game and ask if he was okay when he got up again, forcing her to find a better source of protection. Skidding around the back of the favorite armchair, she faced him, holding up the end of the toilet paper and daring him with her eyes to come closer.

Kellen froze. He held his own wad of toilet paper ready to throw, but met Allegra's eyes and stayed where he was, shooting her a challenging look of his own. He debated for a moment what to do, and finally decided on an old Chaser's trick--look like he was going left, and then go right. With any luck, she'd fall for it, he thought as he made his move.
