Mini Golf (minus the destruction of Manors)

Vlad looks into the mouth of the dragon and steels himself for the confrontation. He'd fought bigger opponents before, this would be nothing. No dragon would come between him and his goal.

Taking a moment to aim, with a mighty swing he lets his shot fly straight into the beast's mouth. And out the other side, where it sped past the hole and bounced against one boundary, then another and another until it finally lost momentum and came to a stop.

As far from the hole as it could be it seems.

"..." Yeah, he'd put way too much power into it again.

	"Next time we'll go to a driving range," she suggested. Oooh! Water! But Cait would so not use her powers to cheat. Though she may use them to help him a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vlad jokingly made an 'I'm watching you' sign although he didn't think she'd use her advantage to get ahead. "I'm taking you up on that suggestion," he smiles as he lines up his shot and tries to do the gentle tap again, quietly hoping his ball didn't fall in the water, which would be a tad embarrassing in front of her. He was trying to preserve at least a tiny bit of dignity here.

	Cait smiled at Vlad and water may have come up out of the stream to keep the ball from falling into it. She gave him an innocent look. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He shoots back an 'I saw that' look but soon after smiles his thanks. While she takes her shot he stands with his back to the stream and casually swings his club, which not-so-accidentally sprays a bit of water at her. Vlad stands there with a very innocent 'Who, me?' look on his face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled when the water hit her and she took her shot. The surprise caught her off guard and her ball went down the green and way past the hole. "Do you really want to go /there/?" she turned and asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know what you're talking about, it must be a secondary mutation manifesting. Totally not my fault," he says while looking as innocent as possible in the beginning, but he can't hold that long and is grinning by the end. He fully expects to be sprayed back with water now. Just a lot more than he'd sprayed her with. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait blinked and then started laughing. It felt good to laugh so much. Life in the mansion could be pretty stressful at times and sometimes on just needed to get away. "That's it. No mercy now. You're going down." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vlad bursts into laughter too. It was great to see other people being happy and he knew that the life of an Xman was crazy and stressful, so he made the effort to get out of the place and have fun. He was very glad Cait had agreed to mini golf. Even if he knew he sucked at it.

"Oh a challenge! I like it. You're free to try bringing me down!" With a laugh he ducks to scoop up some of the water and fling it at her before dancing away from the stream's edge.

	"Oh I so will," she promised. The water never reached her. It stopped in mid-air and then went flying back toward him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Vlad makes a half-hearted attempt to block the water coming his way, but knows it's really no use and the water hits him in the face. Laughing, he goes for another tactic and charges forward, aiming to 'tackle' her by slinging her over his shoulder. Actually tackling might hurt and he doesn't want that. He reminds himself to try and move away from the water, he knows that's the only way he has a chance against her.

	Cait hadn't been expecting to be rushed and tossed over his shoulder. She hit his back a few times, but was laughing too hard to have any force behind the punches. Not that they would have hurt him anyway. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If he'd been completely normal he may have dropped her from laughing so hard he nearly lost his balance. Luckily he wasn't. "I've captured the water sprite! Victory!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-07-17 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	Cait laughed harder. "Put me down you fiend!" she said and pounded on his back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2012-07-17 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Not so easily! I need a reason to release the water sprite. They're rare I'll have you know," he laughs and spins around on the spot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-07-17 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	Cait laughed harder. "No spinning!!" she cried when he started spinning them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2012-07-17 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	He might lose his balance eventually, not from the spinning, but because he's laughing so hard. "Too late! You'll need to do better than that!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Put me down!" she protested between laughs. She was laughing so hard it was getting hard to breathe. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	One final spin, even he was getting dizzy, and Vlad leans back and pretends to lose his balance. "Whoa!" They nearly topple into the stream but he catches himself at last minute and carefully puts her down. "What's my prize for catching and releasing the rare blue water sprite?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-07-17 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	Cait slid down to her feet and smiled up at him. "A prize, huh? I guess you should get a prize." Cait went up on her tiptoes and planted a kiss on his cheek. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vlad gives her a big smile and tips an imaginary hat to her. "Thank you. I promise to always release the sprites I catch from now on." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled at him. "Good. Shall we get back to our game?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2012-07-17 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	He looks over to where their balls are, he'd nearly forgotten about the game. "Let's. I was actually doing well for once. This must be my lucky course," he smiles at her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It could be," she said. "Who knows, you may be able to win. Shall we make a bet? Up the stakes?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2012-07-17 11:43 pm UTC (link)
	Oh he doubted he'd win but a bet might make him do better. "Name your stakes then! And does the loser get a consolation prize?" He wanted to know what he'd need to do if he lost, a likely outcome, and if he had any second place reward. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
