PRANK! Replacing roommate's hair gel with glue!

Ensuring the camera was locked securely into place upon the mini tripod, he straightened it up so it was catching him perfectly. He grinned once he was certain it wasn't going to fall over or worse, off the counter and smash against the tile flooring.

Gar cleared his throat and shuffled backwards, rotating his arms around like he was doing a little dance. He triple checked that he was in frame before he took a big breath, threw his arms wide and beamed in the lens' direction,

"Whaaat's up guys, it's Gar and welcome back to my channel!" He hollered, forever in his happy go lucky mood.

He rolled up the sleeves of his plum colored hoodie that was half zipped, revealing a flash of the black t-shirt he wore beneath, a snippet of a zombie graphic on the front sneaking out from just underneath.

His smile morphed into one filled with mischief and cunning as he slapped his hands together and rubbed them against each other, fitting the bill for an evil villain kind of appearance.

"So… I am back today… with another prank videooo!" He sang, arching his back as he tilted his head upwards,

Gar lifted a finger and pointed it at the camera, "But… it's not on Vic today. I am showing some… pranking love to Dick today… and it's one that makes me think Dick might actually possibly kill me."

He snickered to himself before he ushered in close to the camera again, just enough so that only his shoulders and face filled the shot.

"I only have a little bit of time for this one… Dick is just out right now, picking Kory up from one of her shoots. He may also be dropping Donna home so that will buy me a little more time. Him and Kory are heading out on a double dinner date with Wally and Jenny, so I thought… what better time to screw with him?"

Gar's forest eyes glimmered with the prospect of pulling something on one of his friends and his smirk only widened, stretching and filling his whole face.

"One thing you guys should know about Dick… he loves his hair and he's like a girl when getting ready and doing his hair. So, I was thinking… it might be fun to do another swap…" He paused and reached into the deep pocket of his hoodie, extracting and presenting a bottle of Elmer's glue, "And what better thing to swap some hair gel with than glue?"

"Since I'm not heartless and I know he is supposed to be going out for date night and Kory may even kill me if it's too much… I'm only gonna replace it with some Elmer's rather than some industrial style stuff… that way he can just wash it straight out."

He shook the bottle of glue and cleared his throat again, "Lucky for me, Dick's signature hair gel is a lot like glue in terms of how it feels. It's obviously thicker and not as sticky but if he's unaware, he'll just use it… It is the same color so I don't think he's gonna notice a thing."

Gar paused before he snorted, "I'm… hoping Dick isn't too mad and sees the funny side of it. Honestly, it all depends on his mood when he gets home. But, I'm gonna go and switch them over. See you in a minute!"

With that, he cupped a hand over the lens of the camera, descending the device into a world of darkness.

"Alright guys… I'm just heading into Dick and Kory's room…" He murmured, glancing towards the room he shared with Raven for a moment, "It's super quiet in the house today. Rae's been out all day, doing signings at a local bookstore for her new novel that's just come out…" He paused and leaned in discreetly, "Go buy yourself a copy of 'The Mortal Clock' and head over to West Jump over the next few days, she's doing signings at a bunch of different locations. Proud of my horror girl." He blew a kiss at the camera, as if aiming to send it onward to Raven herself.

Returning to the task at hand, Gar shifted his grip on the tripod legs of the camera, all collapsed up together, keeping it pointed towards his own face, "Dick and Kory have a super nice room and they have the biggest bathroom which… I tried to fight for months after we moved into this place but… I lost."

He turned it around to just capture a little of their room, not wanting to reveal too much on account of their privacy and knowing, deep down, that they personally might not want their belongings and personal space posted all over Youtube.

Their four poster bed was in the center, pushed flush up against the right hand wall as you entered the room. A dark chocolate shade, with cream mesh curtains at each corner; a nice cross between an old style, mixed with modern colors.

A wardrobe at each end of the room, with a small white wood vanity table on Kory's side of the room and a dark room divider in the corner. A black shoe rack ran along the back wall, lined with an army of pumps and heels that all belonged to the model of the house. There were a few torso mannequins as well, dressed in outfits that were given to Kory by her workplaces.

Plants were dotted wherever there was some space available, what with Kory's favorite pastime being activities involving gardening and botany.

There was some gym equipment on the side closest to the door, which happened to be Dick's side. There were a few weights just in the corner, despite having their in house gym just next door to their bedroom.

An oak wood desk sat in the far corner to Gar's left, Dick's laptop perched atop of it with a few textbooks and research pages on the shelf since Dick took enjoyment in studying criminology in his spare time.

Gar chuckled behind his camera as he turned the device towards the puffy blue dog bed that was situated just beside the bathroom. Silkie's rope toy lay abandoned just in front of the cushion, a treasure for the pup that he forced on whoever would play ball with him.

The soft dog in question was resting on his bed and lifted his head as Gar stepped further into the room, his tongue poking out as he focused tired eyes on him.

"Hey Silkie, boy." Gar murmured, gripping his camera at a different angle as he wandered closer and gave him a thorough belly rub, "If I'm being nice now, you don't tell your dad what I'm about to do, deal?"

Silkie retracted his tongue and tilted his little head, one ear flopping down as he moved.

"Good boy." Gar affirmed, stepping away to return his focus on the prank at hand.

Gar shifted his hold on the camera, switching hands so that he could easily reach for the glue in his pocket.

"Silkie knows what's good. He won't say nothin'." Gar murmured, pushing open the bathroom door and tiptoeing over the threshold. He aimed straight for the double basin unit with the huge mirror that was hung up just above.

Turning the camera towards himself, Gar propped it on it's tripod legs and sat it down at the corner of the basin unit so that he could use both his hands without having to worry about the camera.

Gar ran a hand through his hair and exhaled, "Okay… so… I was a weirdo and knew I was doing this prank for a while so when Dick threw out the container of his last hair gel, I washed it out and kept it without him knowing. I'm gonna put the glue in this one since I'm not about to waste his actual gel… that would be a shitty thing to do so…"

He paused and did just as he had said, he removed the real gel from the shelf and slid it into his other hoodie pocket. Pulling out the empty teal jar, he set it just by the basin on the counter.

Reaching into the first pocket again, Gar tugged out the bottle of Elmer's and unscrewed the cap. He turned it upside down and began squeezing it between his fingers, a flow of pure white glue streaming out and squirting into the tub.

"Haha, it's like arts and craft… but… not." Gar mumbled, more so to himself than his audience.

The bottle made a quiet squeak sound as the very last of the glue came out of it. Gar shook it a couple of times, trying to get every last drop in the tub before he paused and replaced the cap on it.

Gar slid the bottle of glue back inside his pocket and cleaned off his hands under the faucet before he twisted the lid of the 'gel' back on.

Picking up the camera, he collapsed the tripod legs again and lifted it up, the lens facing him, "Alright guys… it is all set. Now, I just gotta wait for Dick to come home and get ready to go out and then… things should start to happen... " He paused and beamed, "Check in with you guys soon!"

Scrambling back from the coffee table where the camera now sat, Gar cleared his throat and his eyes shifted towards the archway of the lounge as the sound of the garage door opening was heard from just beyond.

He scooted to the edge of the sofa and eyes the lens of the camera,

"Dick and Kory just got home, i think. I can hear his car pulling into the garage…" He paused and held up his index finger, hoping the camera would pick up the loud squeal of the garage door mechanics as it closed.

"I'm gonna leave the camera recording before I go up and catch the moment he realizes." Gar snorted, sitting back and grabbing the game controller beside him, continuing his game which emitted all kinds of various zombie sounds from off screen.

The sound of the front door opening and then slamming shut had Gar wink and grin at the camera, giving himself only a moment to compose himself from the giggles that were already threatening to burst forth.

Murmuring echoed throughout the hallway, growing louder, the closer the couple got to the lounge.

Dick walked in first, his fingers laced with Kory's who trailed in just behind him.

"Hey Gar." He greeted,

Gar bit his lip and put his controller down on the couch beside his thigh before he relaxed his expression and turned to look at them over the back of the sofa.

"Sup guys." He paused and played along, "Kor, how was work?"

Kory exhaled and shoved a hand through her auburn bangs, "Tiring. There is a new photographer at the studio and he is so very rude! Donna was extremely close to punching him today."

Dick smirked, "And you know Donna wont stop herself one of these days."

Kory smiled and shook her head, "That is what I fear for."

Chuckling, Dick nodded towards Gar, just as Silkie padded down the stairs and into the lounge, excitedly jumping up and pawing Kory's stomach.

"Hello, my little fluffy bumgorf!" Kory cooed, releasing Dick's hand as she crouched down to give her dog some affection.

"What about you, Gar? Have you spent the whole day playing…" Dick squinted and considered the game flashing on the flat screen, "Brain Crushers 3?"

"No, I haven't!" Gar told him indignantly,

Dick raised a dark brow and crossed his arms over his chest.

"I went and had lunch with Rae!"

"And?"

"And then I came home to play Brain Crushers 3, duh."

Dick laughed and shook his head at him before he gently brushed his fingers against Kory's shoulder, "Do you want a drink?"

Kory smiled up at him, lifting a hand and reaching back to cover his with it, "Juice please… if we still have some."

"I'll check."

With that, Dick wandered towards the kitchen and Gar briefly turned back to the camera, ensuring it was still recording. He grinned when he saw the red light still blinking as it should.

"Are you still okay to take Silkie for his walk tonight, Gar?" Kory asked, standing up and wiping the pup's slobber from her hand as Silkie himself rubbed his head against Kory's shin.

"Huh? Oh! Yeah, I'm good to take him." He paused and waited until Dick walked back into the room with a glass of juice for Kory and a glass of water for himself, until he voiced his query, "So, you guys still going out tonight?"

Dick nodded after taking a sip of his drink, "Mhm. Wally saw they opened a new Chinese restaurant where that Taco Bell used to be down the street and said about a double date."

"I thought you weren't a fan of double dates?"

Kory smiled and cuddled into her boyfriend's side, causing him to chuckle, "I'm not really but… I can be persuaded every now and then."

"We should probably start getting ready, Dick." Kory murmured, glancing at the time on her phone.

Dick nodded and offered Gar a two fingered salute, "See you before we leave, Gar."

Gar swiveled back around so he was facing the TV once more, "Talk to ya later, dudes."

His expression remained neutral until the sound of the couples footsteps retreating up the stairs began to fade away and as soon as they were no longer as audible, Gar's lips split into a smirk and he leapt forward, scooping up the camera in his hands,

"Alright… so I'm gonna wait a few minutes before I go upstairs because Dick tends to shower, dry his hair and then add the gel and he showers for like half an hour. I never get it because he never looks pruney after. I wonder how he does it…"

Gar waved his hand and smirked, "I'll talk to you guys once he's done."

He clapped a hand over the camera lens.

Gar's grinning face filled the whole frame as he grappled with the camera in his hand. Using his other hand to grasp the railing of the stairs, he slowly crept up the steps towards Dick and Kory's room which was luckily just at the top of the stairs.

Stifling his laughter as much as possible, Gar tiptoed closer until he was right against the wall adjacent to their bedroom door.

"Okay, so… I just heard the shower shut off from downstairs and I don't know if you guys can hear it now…" He paused and dipped into silence, with only a faint rumbling of the motor inside of the hairdryer being audible. It was muffled through the walls but it could be heard just enough.

"I'm gonna give it a few minutes and then hopefully head inside and catch Dick just as he realizes what the heck he's putting into his hair." Gar snorted, covering his mouth so that he wouldn't be discovered too soon.

"While I'm waiting… just an update for you guys but…" He whispered, pausing as he heard footsteps and gentle humming from inside the bedroom behind him. He visibly slouched and smiled, "It's just Kory. Dick doesn't sound that happy when he hums. Anyway, I've recently started streaming twice a week over on Twitch so if you guys wanna see me kill some zombies, tune in. I'll put the times and days in the description of this video but at the moment, I'm doing a play through of Resident Evil 3 since it was recently announced that the remake is coming which I'm obviously psyched for and thought, what better way to start off my regular streaming routine than with the original game?"

"So, I-" Gar abruptly stopped talking and his eyes widened as he froze on the spot, "I just heard the hair dryer stop…" He hushed, "Which means he's about to start doing his hair… time for me to make my entrance."

Standing up straight, away from his sleuth positioning, Gar turned the camera to face forwards so that he would catch anything that happened in the next couple of minutes.

He gently rapped his knuckles against the door and waited for a long moment, "I have to knock guys because if I barged in and I don't know… Kory wasn't dressed or something then Dick would actually punch me in the face so."

"Come in!" Came Kory's voice,

Taking his cue, Gar opened it wide and stepped over the threshold of the couples' room.

Kory was sat at her vanity table, applying some makeup in the mirror, wearing a loose t-shirt and a pair of pajama shorts; clothing Gar assumed she was wearing so she didn't ruin the outfit she'd be wearing out, on account of any makeup spillage or fallout which would occur. Girls were systematic, he guessed.

"Gar?" Kory queried, surprise lacing her tone as she spun around to look at him, "What are you-"

There was a loud bang, followed by a sudden clatter from inside the bathroom which was finally punctuated by a yell of, "God damn it! I'm gonna kill him!"

Kory's brows knitted together and she stood up, placing her kabuki brush down on the table counter. Her worried eyes swept over to the bathroom door before her expression morphed back into one of mild exasperation,

"Gar… what did you do?" She asked, folding her arms over her chest,

Gar smirked and despite trying to hide it, he failed miserably, "Me? Why do you think I did something?"

She raised a brow at him, "Because you are always up to something."

He opened his mouth to retort but his and Kory's attention was drawn to the bathroom door flinging open and Gar fumbled for the camera to catch whatever happened next.

Kory stood on the other side of the bathroom and gasped, her fingers flying to her lips as she fought back a giggle at the appearance of her boyfriend.

Dick stood in the doorway, the white towel wrapped around his waist and his hands on his hips. He looked less than impressed as he remained rooted to the spot.

Gar bit his lip to stop himself from bursting into laughter as he minutely angled the camera upwards and zoomed in on his new style.

Rather than the loose spikes that usually layered his ebony hair, much like that of a controlled and rugged mess, Dick was currently sporting a more… intense look.

His hair was vertical, like he had been held upside down for countless hours. Gar could see the thin sheen of glue that was still glistening in his hair, some of it having not yet dried. The substance was slick between the single strands, clumping it all together like a terrible wig bought for a Halloween party.

It had clearly started to harden as Dick was running his fingers through his locks since it truly looked like a cartoon where he had been so severely scared by something that all pieces of hair stood on end.

All in all, he looked like a scientist who had just been electrocuted from an experiment go wrong, minus the shocked look and the big round glasses.

"Gar!" Dick growled, his cerulean gaze solely on his friend and nothing else,

"Hey bud… I… uh… I like the new hairstyle-"

Dick took a step forward and gave him a murderous expression, "You better talk or I'm gonna hit you so hard, I swear-"

Gar gave into a nervous chuckle from off camera, the lens still pointing towards Dick as he stood, impatiently waiting for an answer.

"That wasn't your normal hair gel that you used." He admitted,

"Yeah, no shit! What is in my hair right now!?" Dick fumed, his brows furrowed in annoyance,

"Bro, it's fine. It's glue."

Dick's eyes widened and he tilted his head, "What kind of glue, Gar?"

Reaching into his pocket and causing a brief crackling sound on account of the camera rubbing against his clothing, Gar grabbed the empty bottle of Elmer's glue and threw it into the air which Dick inevitably caught and pulled in closer to read over,

"I swear, it's just craft glue, dude. It'll wash out if you go in the shower… again."

After a long moment, Dick deeply exhaled and shook his head, "God, you're a pain in the ass sometimes, Gar."

Dick turned his head and looked at Kory through the long mirror of her vanity, where he could see she was turned away from him and covering her mouth, barely able to resist the giggles that were getting harder and harder to contain.

"Kory! It's not funny." He told her, trying to keep his tone as gruff as possible,

Taking a breath, Kory turned back to face him and sashayed just a bit closer towards him, "My love… it is a little bit funny." She replied, holding her index finger and thumb apart by a mere few centimeters to illustrate her point, "Even you must admit…"

It took him a long pause but his shoulders soon sagged and he cracked an amused smile, rolling his eyes as both Kory and Gar finally descended into bubbling laughter that poured from their throats without warning.

The two of them cracked up at the sight of his hair, sticking up every which way and looking utterly ridiculous. The camera shook a little as it rocked alongside Gar's body whilst he snorted with laughter, his body shaking with the gesture.

Dick turned to go back into the bathroom but he paused mid step and turned towards Kory, "Kor, can you text Wally off my phone and let him know we'll be a little late… since someone couldn't restrain them self with a prank."

Gar spun the camera around to capture his face for a brief moment, "It's me. He's talking about me, guys."

He swiveled the device back towards the room, where Dick was still standing for the time being.

Kory blew Dick a kiss and smiled cheekily, "I will notify him."

Dick smirked and nodded before he stomped back into the bathroom where hot steam was still filtering out from, "Guess I'll go and wash this crap out." He sighed and muttered under his breath, "God, I hate you sometimes."

Just as the door closed behind Dick, Gar called out from behind the camera, "That is a LIE!" Gar shouted after him, "I know I'm your favorite in this house besides Kory!"

His statement was met by the muffled sound of the shower head starting up and spraying jets of water all around the shower.

Gar shifted and shot the camera in Kory's direction, "You know, he loves me."

Kory snorted, "Mhm. He clearly adores you."

Wandering further into the room by just a fraction, Gar took a seat on the very edge of Dick and Kory's bed whilst Kory scurried over and perched cross legged just behind him, beaming in the lens' direction.

Gar flipped the camera around so he could film his own face but was happy enough when he saw through the viewfinder that Kory wanted to wave goodbye to his viewers as well.

"Alright guys… so, that was Dick using glue instead of his hair gel." He paused and glanced over his shoulder at Kory, "Which was actually pretty funny."

Kory hid a giggle behind her hand and nodded, a mischievous expression on her face. Like she knew it was possibly bad to laugh at her boyfriend's misfortune but couldn't help it.

Gar smirked and offered a two fingered salute to his viewers, "Thanks for watching, guys. Let's all hope Dick's hair returns to normal after his second shower of the evening…" Gar snorted, "If you did like this video, don't forget to smash the like button and subscribe to my channel if you are not already a part of my youtube famjam."

Kory smiled and gave a thumbs up behind him.

"I'll see you guys in the next one!" Gar nodded, "Peace!"
