Somersby doesn't have that many good places to hide and most of the boys know them all by their last year.
After a few bribes and Nick using his charm, they convinced the groundskeeper to let them use a shed as long as nothing broke.
Over the few years that Nick and Sam have had access to it, its become a fairly serious workshop which at the moment is full of the sounds of metal as Sam waves something that was once a clock at Nick,
"It won't work if you do it like that."

"You look like you're getting a little overheated there, Sam."

Date: 2009-10-24 09:32 pm (UTC)"Charter, that was harder than it should have been. I hate being this far from the Wall some days."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:38 pm (UTC)He gets up and motions for Sam to do the same.
"We'll get out of the shed into the air for a bit. Do you some good. Besides--"
A quick grin.
"--we're not going to catch any bees inside, right?"
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:39 pm (UTC)"No, and hopefully won't get too badly stung. We've a match coming up after all."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:44 pm (UTC)He tosses the cage into the air and catches it again.
"Dormalan doesn't have a clue what they're in for."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:46 pm (UTC)Outside he looks around and considers,
"Lots of flowers are blooming so this shouldn't be too hard."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:48 pm (UTC)He points over toward the cricket ground.
"That clump of daisies by the high grass on the other side is where several were before..."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-24 09:55 pm (UTC)He heads off across the field towards where a number of bees are clustered around the daisies.

Date: 2009-10-24 10:01 pm (UTC)"The Charter's so hard to grasp here and after all, its the basis of everything, its just strange."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-28 08:14 pm (UTC)"... better look out there, old chap."
no subject
Date: 2009-10-28 09:01 pm (UTC)The bees were just a bit closer than he realized and one stung his wrist.
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 02:18 am (UTC)"Should have thought to get a net somewhere," Nick mutters.
Carefully, with the small cage stretched out before him, he attempts to sneak up on a bee.

Date: 2009-11-03 02:27 am (UTC)Of course, that means he's not even ready when the other disturbed bees come zipping toward his corner of the daisy clump.
"What the--"
He breaks off with a yelp as a bee dives at his ear and gets tangled in lock of blond hair.
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 02:33 am (UTC)"Charter, get them off."
Since Nick is being on the ground and not helpful, Sam tugs at his arm,
"Come on, move!"
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 02:51 am (UTC)He snatches up the slightly-crumpled screen enclosure and takes off after Sam... and away from the bees, save for the lone confused captive buzzing wildly around the cage.
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 02:56 am (UTC)She grew far too tired of treating his burns and still doesn't believe he knows the proper spells when he just forgets,
"Here, put this on the stings."
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 03:03 am (UTC)He scratches absently at one of the welts on his neck, then tries to balance the cage on the scale.
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 03:06 am (UTC)He sighs and puts some on his stings and watches Nick.
no subject
Date: 2009-11-03 03:18 am (UTC)He gets the cage arranged to his satisfaction, straightens up, and reaches for the balm.

Date: 2009-11-03 03:27 am (UTC)He gives the apparatus a once-over, then turns and beams a grin at Sam.
"I think it will."

Date: 2009-11-03 03:30 am (UTC)"And I will. When you're right."
