Office Hours, Tuesday

[on_her_korhal]

Kerrigan was not stupid enough to bring the kitten to work. No; that right was reserved for some of the bottles of neon soda, which had still not quite managed to drain out of her fridge.

Privately, she thought they might be reproducing.

In full defiance of the sugar, she was drinking her coffee black today.

"Lieutenant?" Triela called as she paused in the doorway and knocked on the frame.

"Yes?" Kerrigan put her cup of coffee back down on the desk.

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"I've been thinking," Triela grinned mischievously for a moment before her face slipped into seriousness again. "Do you think we could organize some sort of exercise for the gun club? A... paintball fight or something? Some of these girls haven't been in real combat before."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"..."

Kerrigan shoved a bottle of neon blue fizzy soda in Triela's general direction. "Can't see why not. Sit down."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Yes, ma'am," Triela nodded curtly and moved to take a seat.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Paintball," Kerrigan continued, with a lift of her eyebrow. "Where? On the grounds? In the danger shop?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"The grounds, I think," Triela decided after a moment to consider. She grinned suddenly, "Maybe someone will prep the terrain hoping for an advantage."

Maybe that someone would be Triela.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"That someone being you?" Because the guess wasn't obvious, or anything. Kerrigan poked at the bottle again. "Have some neon."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Maybe," Triela admitted.

She eyed the bottle doubtfully. "What is that?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"It's soda," she said, shoving a plastic cup forwards. "...I think. Anyway, that might be a good idea. Teach everyone to be on their guard."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Soda, huh." The cup is eyed suspiciously. "Besides," Triela pointed out, not touching the cup, "It'll probably be fun."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I can't disagree on that one," she replied, smirking a little. "Next week?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Do you think we can get the equipment that fast?" Triela mused thoughtfully. "I think two weeks might be better."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Two weeks?" She whistled low, then nodded. "Slowpokes round here."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Well," Triela shrugged and smirked, "We do have Sokka."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"He's your target practice," Kerrigan smirked back. "Put some hair on his chest. One way or the other."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Oh, he's not that bad," Triela allowed. She considered for a moment, "And I guess we'll have to figure out some way to do teams?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Or make 'em all run for themselves. The smart ones will make alliances," she said, with definite amusement.

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that's an excellent suggestion," Triela leaned forward abruptly.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Kerrigan eyed her dryly. "Sure you don't want some soda?"

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Is it sweet?" the cup was eyed again, still doubtfully.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

She leaned back. "Enough sugar to launch a cow."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Yuck," Triela pulled a disgusted face. "I'll pass."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Kerrigan shrugged a little, crossing her arms. "It was worth a try. I can't get rid of these things."

[sorella-vecchia.livejournal.com]

"Maybe you can hand them out in class... as 'prizes'?" Triela offered doubtfully.
