25 Unicorn Street, Early Friday Afternoon

[on_her_korhal]

After last night, Sarah Kerrigan knew it was right about time to reprioritize the details of her little home improvement adventure; the level of break-ins was staggering for an island of this size (she realised the irony of her presence in the house, but had no need of it). The moment permissibly modded Deadpool had left the house, she began work on an early warning system.

There were no missiles involved, and the house was starting to look a little empty (besides the ball pit) for all the retooling (read: stripping of items) she was doing, but safety measures came first.

"I'm really disappointed, Sheriff," Kerrigan said, smirk returning to her lips. "I thought you were a little more punctual."

She stopped by the side of the ball pit. "I think creativity failed me," she said. "Alchemy's not my strong point." The side of her mouth quirked a little more.

Roy gave her an amused look. "It might have to do with the fact that you didn't believe me when I first told you about it," he replied, not sounding bothered at all. He leaned down, picking up one of the balls again and studied it for an instant, determining its make up.

"That may have been a factor," she grinned. "But, hey. Here's your chance to show off."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He met her eyes for an instant and smirked. "I know far better ways to show off," he informed her before tossing the ball back on the heap.

"That's what they all say," Kerrigan smirked at him, "And rarely manage." She paced around the ball pit.

"I never fail," Roy assured her and he tossed the ball back on top of the pit. Reaching into his pocket, he drew out a piece of chalk and he squatted down to start drawing a transmutation circle on the ground.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Sure." She took a few steps back, just to be certain. "Nothing's going to blow up, right?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I need my gloves for that," he said simply and finished the circle. He pondered what exactly to turn the heap of balls in to until he got an idea. He reached out, placing both hands so he touched the circle and instantly a bright blue light moved across the floor and enveloped the balls. When it died down again, the pit was vanished and there was a huge tarp covering the floor. Actually, on a closer look it might have turned out to be an inflatable swimming pool.

From Kerrigan's corner of the room, there may have been a low whistle. "Okay," she said, "That may have been mildly impressive."

She paused.

"...Swimming pool?"

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

And Roy could do a lot more than that.

He smirked and straightened up, shrugging a little as he gave Kerrigan a mischievous look. "Seemed like a nice addition to the house. Especially in this weather."

Even without the telepathy, she wouldn't have bought that for a minute. "Uh huh," Kerrigan said, raising an eyebrow. "I bet it will be. Thanks, Sheriff." Okay, just a hint of amusement, there.

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He grinned, seemingly confident that he wasn't about to get killed or maimed in any way for the pool. "You're welcome, Lieutenant," he said. "If there's anything else I can help with?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"I'd ask for help with the couch," Kerrigan said, cocking her head to the side, "But somehow I'm afraid of what I'd end up with."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy chuckled. "What's wrong with it?"

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

She shot Roy a dry look. "You turned my ball pit into an inflatable swimming pool."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"If you'd rather I turn it back..." he shrugged.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

She looked at him as if seriously considering it for a moment. "No," Kerrigan finally decided. "And I was kidding about the couch. Except that Deadpool got beer stains all over it, but I can live with that."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"I'd suggest making him pay for a new one," Roy said, "but then it's probably his couch so I don't think it quite works."

"Wouldn't want to piss off the landlord." Kerrigan kneeled down by the pool and started to roll it up. "Although as far as rent goes, a couple bottles of beer isn't much."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He raised an eyebrow, watching her curiously. "He's a mercenary, I doubt it will stay at that."

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"Nah," she said, finishing the roll quickly, "Mercs are the easy part."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"The easy part of what exactly?" he couldn't help but ask.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Kerrigan smiled vaguely at him, propping the roll up against the wall and getting up. "Living in a fixer-upper," she said. "Now I'm going to have to find a place to put this thing."

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Did you get that hole in the roof closed? You could put it underneath that," Roy suggested.

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

"First thing I did after you left," Kerrigan said, glancing up at the ceiling just to check. "But I'm glad to hear you thinking with me," she smirked.
