Thanks for joining me once again on Roommates.
Before we get on with the story, I'd like to thank all my wonderful reviewers for all their help with pranks. I will use as many as possible.
Also, I am now able to except anonymous reviews if there are people out there who are reading this story but can't review. Now you can!
Hey, a quick question! All of you who are reading this and who support BB/Terra, please make yourselves known to me! And if there are some of you who know people who support that couple, ask them if they know any good BB/T songs. I'd like to have as many as possible.
A couple songs for the Terra, BB, and Raven triangle wouldn't hurt, if anybody knew any. Same goes for Kid Flash and Jinx and the Kid Flash, Jinx, and Cyborg triangle. I would love some experts to help me out here. I WOULD LOVE ANYBODY TO HELP ME OUT!!!!
And now, without farther ado, this is chapter ten of Roommates!

Tricks…
Jinx, not having been in the Tower for more than a day, followed Beast Boy towards the kitchen (and breakfast).
They entered the common-room proper. The remaining three Titans were waiting for them as Cyborg served bacon, eggs, ham, pancakes and all other manner of other breakfast meats. There was also another pan of tofu eggs and waffles sitting on the angular counter for Beast Boy.
He really outdid himself this time, the changeling thought as he and the witch sat down at the table side by side.
Being bound to a girl might have hampered /beast Boy's morning, but there was no way was she going to get in the way of his breakfast. It was the most important meal of the day! That was, besides lunch and dinner.
Everyone tried to act natural with jinx at the table. Robin was reading the Gotham Gazette with the Jump City Times close by his plate. Raven was reading a book called Most Precious Blood while Starfire, who sat directly across from the Hive5 member, was trying to engage the goth-girl beside her in a conversation about daisies.
Cyborg played something like the gracious host, making sure everybody had their special something: Raven's tea, Starfire's mustard, Robin's jam-and-toast, and Beast boy's tofu waffles.
In front of Jinx he sat a short stack of pancakes with a side of toast and eggs.
"Didn't know what ya' liked so—" Cyborg shrugged.
"Thank you" the witch mumbled shyly. Robin raised an eyebrow at the robotic teen's behavior, which made him blush lightly and scurry back behind the counter. Robin went back to scanning for news on Slade. Jinx began working her way through the three cakes.
The first to leave the table was Raven, up to the roof to meditate most likely. Later robin jumped up and ran to the work-computer with a page from the news, he'd made a hit. Beast Boy and Jinx dumped their dishes in the sink, and then he dragged her back to the room.
As the door opened, Jinx noticed two things: one, they had missed a small puddle when cleaning up the egg yolk, and two, Beast Bo could probably fall into it. She smirked as she lifted her right pointer finger lightly and flicked off a pink spark.
The spark found its target.
As Beast Boy stepped onto a scrap of paper, it flew out from under him. He slipped and did a face-plant into remaining puddle of ooze. Laughter came from behind him.
Revenge is sweet, thought the sorceress as she cackled at the misfortune of the changeling.
This isn't over, Pinky, was the thought of the unfortunate changeling as he picked himself up and went to find a towel. It's just getting started.
------
For the next week there was nothing to do, and Robin had even dubbed it too hot to have combat practice! But all was not completely uneventful. Cyborg, Raven, Robin, and Starfire caught on the second day.
For Beast Boy and Jinx, the first five days they were together were solely spent on thinking up and playing tricks, on each other of course. All the other four could do was watch, less they got caught in the cross fire.
Many of them were classical, as in the ever-bearing whoopee cushion and the pie-in-the-face joke. Some were more original, as in the unorthodox tofu-in-the-shampoo-bottle and the unconventional Silky-down-the-shirt.
Many more pranks did they play on each other, but now we're out of time. Join me next time for a close up on the jokes and tricks, on Roommates.

Tell me, what do you guys (and girls) think of a food-fight? Too ordinary or classical? I'd really like your opinion.
Next time I shall subject you to a brief-as-sanely-possible summary of the first five days of the battle.
So it is imperative that you send in a LOT more pranks. I need a couple more to fill in some gaps and then the next chapter will be complete! Until next time, this is JA on Roommates.
