Author's Note: Honestly, I am the worst, I know. I'm super sorry for not getting this August chapter out sooner. August, man. I am so behind lmao. The next two will be relatively shorter, I reckon.

Just as a heads up btw, the next chapter is dickkory centred (ish) and the reason is cos' September was my birthday month so for that chapter, I'm pandering to myself pft. You'll see what I mean when I post the next chapter.

Fingers crossed... this time it won't take me an entire month.

Let me know your thoughts on this one, friends! Hope you like it.

PRANK! Stuffing My Roommate's Car with Packing Peanuts!

Uploaded by Gar Logan

25th August 2021

Length: 00:47:36

Gar waved both his hands around, beaming straight down the center of the camera from where he was sitting on the edge of the square shaped fountain, placed in the middle of their driveway.

The clear, glistening water spurted out from the distributor at the very top of the three tiered fountain directly behind him. The delicate babbling sound of the water flowing down over the edges and into the basin at the bottom was like nature's white noise. The water that pooled in the basin was crystal clear and sparkling beneath the empty skies and bright sunlight above.

Gar squinted at the camera, holding one hand above his eyes in an attempt to shield his vision, at least enough to introduce the video, "Whaaat's up guys! It's me, Gar and welcome back to my channel!"

He leaned forward, resting his elbows against his knees whilst rubbing the palms of his hands together in a devious manner.

"So, today… we are back with another praaank!" Gar hollered, grinning from ear to ear.

Taking a pause, Gar sucked in a deep breath and elaborated, "This time, the joke is on Dick. He and Kory are going out tonight. They're meant to be heading out to Gotham for this Summer time charity gala that Bruce is hosting." Gar halted and lowered his voice, "Right now, they're hanging in the pool with Vic and Rae since today is… fairly scorchin'."

With that, he waved a hand near his face, trying to relieve the heat that prickled his skin as he sat under the beaming sun, "Now, Vic is actually in on this prank and he's being a good best bud and making sure Dick stays put in the backyard. I'm supposedly editing an important video up in my room which is why I'm not hanging out with them… or at least, that's the excuse I've given."

Gar cleared his throat and a slow smirk appeared across his lips, "Now, the prank itself? I'm gonna be putting five sacks worth of packing peanuts into Dick's car." He leaned back and planted his hands against the edge of the stone wall of the fountain, "Dick already stresses like heck whenever he and Kory drive up to Gotham so this might actually drive him nuts but… y'know, that's what makes it funny."

Heaving himself up and onto his feet, Gar placed both hands on his hips and squinted at the camera, "Okay… I'm gonna get started on this. The sacks of peanuts are in the garage so I'll go grab them and be back in just a second."

Gar hurried forward, cupping a hand over the lens of the camera, sending the image into shadows.

The image of the camera shook slightly as Gar grappled with the device now in the palm of his hand. His eyes were wide and his lips were puckered, the expression frozen on his face as recorded himself.

The brightness from being outside dimmed as he crept towards the front of their house. He bit down on his lower lip as he reached a hand out for the handle of the front door. Gar closed one eye as he applied some pressure, opening the door as quietly as he possibly could.

A quiet squeak from the moving hinges sounded and Gar hunched his shoulders, his expression pleading for no one to have heard it.

His face morphed back into a look of apprehension. Taking several steps into the main hallway, the still open door was clearly visible behind Gar's shoulder, with the sunshine pouring in through the gap.

Gar's forest eyes shifted to the left whilst his free hand moved slowly up to the right, obviously aiming to grab something from the wall.

There was a slight jangle as he collected a set of keys from the hook on the wall. He retracted his hand and held the keys up towards the lens, tightly clenched within his fist to ensure they didn't make any more jingling sounds.

Pausing for a moment longer, Gar poked his tongue out from between his lips and scurried back towards the front door, his cheeks puffy from where he was holding his breath.

Once he was back outside and standing on the doorstep, he spun around and quickly yet silently, closed the front door again, squeezing his eyes shut as he did so.

There was a brief moment of silence before Gar exhaled noisily and let his head drop back against his shoulders.

"My God… the back doors are open which is why I was trying to go all stealthy in there." He panted and lifted the set of keys up so the camera could capture a shot of them, "These are Dick's keys which he always leaves on the hook just inside the hallway. But, after this, I have a feeling he'll be putting his keys in a safer place."

Gar sighed and kept the camera on his face as he bounded back over to the fountain where he had initially introduced the video.

"So… this is a fun one because… Dick actually has like 3 vehicles. He has two cars and his motorbike too." Gar pulled a mocking expression but couldn't help the eventual grin that popped out, "God, rich kids, am I right?"

With that, Gar spun the camera around so that he was instead filming the array of cars that were parked out the front of the house.

There were 3 cars parked up, with ample space between each of them and they were lined in front of the house.

On the very end, there was a dark hunter green Nissan sentra that looked a little beaten up but still in pretty decent condition. It was a little bit riddled with dirt but it was nothing that a car wash wouldn't clear up.

"That good ol' green boy on the end there is my precious baby which I've had since I passed my driver's test… which is why it looks a bit worse for wear, my poor bud." Gar made a sound of disgust as he zoomed in on it, "Man, I really need to get my car cleaned… ooh! I can ask Vic when he next does his. He says he doesn't trust the car wash places in case they scratch his baby or something which brings us to that middle car just by the front door."

Gar panned the camera across to the silver car that was glistening under the sunlight. It was a well kept and practically flawless Chevrolet Malibu, sleek and squeaky clean; there was nothing about the car that said it was a neglected vehicle.

A snort came from behind the camera, "Honestly, Vic probably spends more nights with his cars than us or Karen." He briefly jerked the camera towards the closed garage door, "And actually, I say about Dick having a few cars but Vic has like 3 others besides his baby in the garage. They're not even close to brand new but they are his projects; the ones he tinkers with in his spare time. They don't look half as nice as this one which is the one he actually drives everywhere."

Gar wandered along the concrete of the driveway, turning the camera as he moved, "And then this suave as fuck car on the end here, just under the tree is Dick's car."

He let out a long whistle as he settled the camera on the onyx colored sports car on the very end of the set of cars. It was sleek and close to the ground, black as ink and spotless in terms of dirt or scratches.

It was on the expensive side, considering it was an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera and the appearance of it screamed its' wealth too.

"Now, this is actually fairly new… Dick got this one about 3 years ago? Bruce bought it for him for his 21st birthday." The camera pivoted sharply to show Gar's deadpan face, "which 100% shat all over the baseball tickets I got for him. Thanks a lot, Bruce."

He cleared his throat and spun the camera back around so that it was solely focused on the ebony sports car, shimmering under the sun's glorious rays.

"So… as you can see, I've got five sacks of packing peanuts." He angled the camera, revealing the packaging pieces sitting directly beside the parked car, "which… I mean, I'm assuming that will be enough."

He drifted closer to the car, shifting the camera so it could catch a shot of the packing peanuts which were simply waiting to be split open and put inside.

"I wanna get the car to a point where it's completely full so you can't even see the pedals or the steering wheel and where if someone was sitting in it, only their shoulders and head would be visible." Gar moved around and stood right in front of the packing peanuts, "And I'm choosing this car cos' he usually takes this one for the drive down to Gotham. He's said that it runs better on the roads out of the city."

Turning the camera around once more, Gar beamed into the lens and offered his viewers a cheeky wink, "See you guys in a second. I'm just gonna put the camera on the tripod again. Otherwise, it's gonna be super difficult to fill the car and hold the camera."

Gar huffed and leaned on his knees, hunched over slightly with his mess of hair flopping over his face.

He took a deep breath and blindly waved a hand behind his back before his fingers brushed the top of the plastic sack containing a huge amount of packing peanuts.

Once his hand was on it, he wrapped his fingers around it and dragged the bag of peanuts across the floor until it was sitting at his feet.

"Dudesss. It's so hot out here!" Gar whined, wiping sweat from his brow, the perspiration beyond evident on his skin, "I don't know why I choose to do these things when it's hot as balls out."

With a deep breath, Gar straightened up and placed both hands on the bag, digging his fingers in and ripping an opening in it.

"I had to shove all these sacks into the back of my car and…" He broke off and chuckled, "How I didn't get pulled over by any cops, I'll never know. My whole back window was blocked and I couldn't see a thing. I drove super slowly though… I've never been more thankful for the store only being 10 minutes away."

He gently released the broken plastic, ensuring none of the packing peanuts spilled out. Gar backed away slightly and tugged Dick's car key fob from his back pocket, clicking and holding the unlock button.

The headlights flashed twice and there was a quiet sound, signalling that the vehicle was unlocked, as well as all of the windows slowly sliding down until they were completely retracted.

Gar stepped over to the right side of the car and opened the door up, stepping back and merely staring into the car for a long moment, "God, this is such a nice car. Can you guys believe that Dick has never let me drive it?" He snorted, "I know right? Crazy."

He shimmied away and closed the car door behind him, smiling, "Alright… all the windows are down… and side note, I gotta do it this way cos' if I try filling it and then opening the door to get to another part of the car, the peanuts will all just fall out and we don't want that happening until Dickie opens it later."

Turning his head back towards the car, Gar popped his head through the open window and his eyebrows shot up and he pursed his lips before inclining his head and glancing over at the camera.

"Wow… Dick's car is way cleaner than mine has ever been in my life." He scoffed, "There's like empty water bottles and pizza boxes all over the place in mine. Dick's got this whole thing looking spotless."

He reared back and took a deep breath, scurrying around so he was standing right beside the car, in perfect view of the camera.

Gar reached for the freshly opened bag of packing peanuts and began cupping some into his hands and throwing them through the open window on the driver's side.

He continued hauling handfuls of styrofoam peanuts into the car for several minutes, until the first bag was at the halfway mark.

Humming to himself in thought, Gar paused and crouched down, scooping the bag up into his arms, splaying both hands under the very bottom for support.

Poking his tongue out in concentration, Gar tilted his arms up slightly so that the contents of the bag began to flow straight through the window and into the car.

"See… this actually shouldn't take me too long… not like when I painted Vic's room which I'm sad to say, he has now repainted it to like a super pale blue. How boring." Gar muttered as the last few stray peanuts trickled into the car.

Gar exhaled loudly and straightened up again, scrunching the empty bag up into a ball and throwing it onto the ground, off camera, "Don't worry, I'll be picking up the plastic bags when I'm finished. After Dick inevitably makes me clear the peanuts from his car, I'm gonna try and salvage them where possible and keep them for something else…" He paused and placed his hands on hips, "I don't know what exactly but don't wanna be unnecessarily wasteful."

With that, he turned on his heel and ambled partially out of frame and grunted as he began to drag the second bag of packing peanuts across the ground and into the shot.

"On to bag numero two." Gar huffed, running a hand through his sweaty locks to rid it from across his eyes.

As he started to rip open the second bag, Gar mumbled to himself but loudly enough so that his viewers could clearly hear as well, "This would be so much easier if Dick had an old car with a sunroof but noooo, he has to have a newer car."

Gar stopped and squinted his eyes, "Actually… do any cars even have sunroofs anymore?"

He shrugged and kept working on the project at hand. Just as he moved to shove his hand into the peanuts, he paused and hummed before kissing his teeth and hobbling around to the passengers side, tugging the bag with him whilst being careful not to let any of it fall onto the concrete.

"I'm gonna go at this from all sides, I think. I have five bags of peanuts and I have four windows so I'll do a bag per window and then just fill it up with the last one." Gar explained as his hands shot into the mass of white packing peanuts.

He grabbed them and redeposited the handfuls straight through the window, the camera catching the moments the peanuts bounced off of the car seat and onto the floor, building up steadily as more and more were being distributed into the car.

Soon enough, when the bag had reached the halfway point, Gar flashed a grin over at the camera and hauled the rest up into his arms like he had previously done with the first bag.

He raised his arms up and tilted at the same time, allowing the rest of the peanuts to filter into the car through the open window.

As the packing peanuts slowly increased inside the confines of Dick's car, the more hidden the leather seats became. On both the driver's side and the passengers side, the lower seat areas were completely covered up, the mountain of packing peanuts only growing in size.

"I was actually considering using bean bag stuffing…" Gar panted, the heat and the mass of peanuts working against him as he spoke, "Y'know the little tiny beans inside the bean bag seats? But then, I decided against it cos' I thought Dick might actually pop a blood vessel if I did that…"

Gar took a deep inhale as the last quarter of the bag trickled into the passenger's side of the car, the foot space completely buried beneath the packing peanuts which had been crammed in.

As the last few peanuts fell, Gar's mouth fell open and he made an uncomfortable sound, peering up at the blazing sunlight above with squinted eyes.

He sighed heavily and rubbed a clammy hand over his equally sweaty face. With this proving no help, Gar grabbed the hem of his t-shirt and lifted it up, smearing his face against it.

"God damn… I shoulda waited to do this in the winter or somethin'!" He cursed, exhaling noisily and hunching under the impenetrable heat.

Gar shook his head and rolled his shoulders back, "Nope. Let's get this done. We're already like halfway finished."

He took the now empty plastic bag in his hand and balled it up between his palms, launching it through the air to join the other used bag on the concrete.

"This is awesome so far… the front is completely packed with peanuts. You can't see the pedals or anything." Gar stated, sidestepping out of the camera's shot just as peanuts were beginning to fall between the driver and passenger seats.

"I'll obviously take a proper shot of what it looks like inside once I'm done for you guys." Gar vowed, hands on his hips as he paused, trying to gain the motivation to start on the third sack of packing peanuts.

With that, he reached out to the side and hauled the third sack of packing peanuts into frame and immediately stretched open the top of the bag, standing back on the side closest to the camera, aiming to fill the window that was situated behind the driver's seat.

"Round three, guys…" Gar murmured, clasping one of his hands beneath the other to scoop the first few mounds of packing peanuts through the back window.

After a minute or so of Gar doing this, he froze at the sound of the front door opening and closing. He snapped his head up but visibly relaxed after seeing who had wandered outside.

Vic's belly chuckle could be heard as he approached the car, slowly easing into the frame with his arms folded over his bare chest, wearing just a pair of navy trunks which were dripping a little with pool water.

"Sup', grass stain. How's it goin'?" Vic smirked, peering around at the empty scrunched up bags. He hobbled over to Dick's car and lifted a hand to shield his eyes so he could peek inside.

"Gettin' there." Gar snorted, abandoning the third sack for a brief moment.

Vic sucked in a breath, "Dude… he's gonna be so mad. He's already been talking about how he's feeling the stress of knowing they're heading to Gotham in a few hours."

Gar grinned, "No way… really?"

Taking a step away from the onyx colored car, Vic nodded his head, "Yup. Kory isn't as bothered, obviously since she loves a dress up night and bless her, she's just trying to soothe him."

Gar burst into laughter, "Oh man, my prank is gonna make him have a stroke."

Vic smirked and shook his head, "How many sacks you got left?"

Jerking his chin towards the freshly opened sack at his feet, Gar answered, "This is the third bag and I have two left."

"I was gonna say… there's quite a lot in the car already." Vic pointed out,

"What are they up to right now?"

Vic scratched his chin as he thought about it, "Uhh… Dick was in the pool, playing around with Silkie who is… livin' his best life in the water." Gar snorted at that, "But, Kory is sitting on the edge with her feet in the water and Rae's sitting under the tree, reading that new mystery novel she was talking about yesterday."

Gar slowly nodded his head and narrowed his eyes, partially to avoid the brightness of the sun and partially as he considered what Vic had just told him.

Vic chewed on his lower lip as his cobalt eyes were drawn to Dick's car instinctively before he scoffed and choked out a deep chuckle.

Lifting a dark brow in query, Gar tilted his head, "What?"

His best friend shook his head in disbelief, "I just can't believe what you've done to his car, man. He's going to kill you. Literally." He paused and sighed, "I know I'd be livid if you ever did this to my baby."

Gar slowly smirked and pressed his fingers to his chin, "Interesting to know…"

Vic jabbed a finger at him, "Don't even think about it."

Waving a hand of dismissal, Gar chuckled and reached for the bag that was still sitting discarded at his feet. He dug his hands inside and collected a small mountain of peanuts.

He balanced them in the palms of his hands until they were level with the window of the back seat, behind the driver's space.

Lobbing them through the window, Gar set to work on diving in for more pieces of styrofoam.

Vic lifted his arms above his head and stretched his limbs, suppressing a yawn.

He sighed and shrugged his shoulders, "Ite, I'm gonna head back out there. I said I was just running in for a snack."

Gar nodded and lifted a hand to salute him, "No worries, dude. Keep an eye on things for me."

"I've got ya." Vic mumbled as he padded off camera, back towards the house.

His voice faded and was followed swiftly by the front door opening and then closing again.

Clearing his throat, Gar straightened up and hurried his pace, cupping packing peanuts and filtering them in through the back window at a quicker speed than before.

Once again, when Gar got about halfway through the bag of peanuts, he heaved it off of the floor and into his arms. He used the hand that wasn't as occupied to open up the split in the top a little more so that the peanuts would just fall into the car.

He sighed heavily as the last few sprinklings of styrofoam peanuts slid out and in through the open window, landing atop the budding mountain of pieces sitting in the back seats.

"Oookay… this one is almost done and I have…" Gar peered over his shoulder to check, "Two bags left to fill the car with. It's still looking a little gappy on the other side, behind the passenger's seat so I'll use the next bag for that side."

Just as he finished speaking, the plastic bag in his hands became empty. He made a noise at the back of his throat and balled the bag up, throwing it off screen to join the other scrapped bags.

Gar scurried around the side of Dick's car once again, glancing in through the open window at the back, behind the passenger's seat.

He slapped his hands together and spun away, his eyes darting across to the next bag of packing peanuts.

Reaching over, he grabbed the top of the bag and gently tugged it over to where he was standing.

Gar ripped a hole in the top, the squeaky sound of plastic being punctured audible from where he was in proximity to the camera.

He dove straight in, carrying a bundle of peanuts in his arms and depositing them through the back window, just as he had done with the other windows of the car as well.

They fluttered inside, falling and squeezing into all the tiny nooks and crannies of Dick's car.

As he continued picking up handfuls of styrofoam, the inside of the vehicle was becoming more and more full, with the level of peanuts roughly at shoulder height in each seat.

Gar heaved the now half full bag up into the crook of his elbow and tilted his torso and arms, watching with concentration and his tongue poking out, as they started spilling in through the gap in the window.

"As soon as this is finished, I swear to God I am diving straight into the pool. It's so god damn hot…" Gar whined, pulling a face at the sun which was now directly above him, bearing down on the world.

Groaning as a bead of sweat rolled down his temple and dripped down his chin, Gar finished pouring in the last few styrofoam pieces in the bag.

He sighed and stepped back from the window, the empty bag clutched between his fingers. He screwed it up into a ball and threw it over into the pile where the others were too.

Turning back towards the window, Gar's face pinched together as he reached an arm through the gap, splaying his fingers wide and reshuffling some of the peanuts in the backseats so that it filled up equally on both sides of the rear.

His nose scrunched up more as he groped further in through the window, ruffling the peanuts to fall where they may.

Satisfied with how the styrofoam pieces were situated in the back of the car, Gar slowly slid his arm back out through the window and headed straight for the last sack of peanuts, sitting all on its own on the hot concrete beneath his feet.

He pulled it directly into the frame and dug the tips of his fingers into the plastic bag, pulling at it until a rip appeared at the top of the sack.

"Alright, we're down to the last bag guys." Gar informed his viewers, scooping both of his hands inside the bag and bringing small mounds of peanuts out which he promptly threw straight through the open window.

From where the camera was situated in relation to Dick's car, it was clear that the vehicle was practically filled to the brim with white styrofoam pieces, littered across the front seats and the back ones, with plenty squeezed between the middle as well.

Gar made a sound at the back of his throat, his brows suddenly knitting together as he reached the halfway point of the bag.

He paused, leaving the remaining peanuts in the bag, slumped against the ground.

"Hm… I have about half left of the last bag but this car is basically full…" Gar suddenly clicked his fingers and a grin spread across his face, turning his head to look directly into the lens of the camera, "I'm gonna shove the rest in the trunk of the car, oh my God…"

Taking a step away, Gar bent over at the waist and gripped the neck of the bag, hauling it up and into the crook of his elbow.

He cleared his throat and ambled towards the back of Dick's car. Gar fished around in one of the back pockets of his shorts for Dick's car keys and withdrew them, pressing his thumb down on the button to open the trunk.

The trunk suddenly popped open and then slowly released, lifting higher and higher until the entire door was up.

"See? This guy doesn't even have shit shoved in the back of the car. What the heck…" Gar shook his head in disbelief, "Please, you guys. Tell me in the comments if your car is squeaky clean or if it's like mine and full of takeout boxes because this level of clean for your car is unbelievable to me."

With a firm shake of his head, Gar tilted the bag in his arms and poured the rest into the trunk, grinning widely as he did so. As he neared the last of the peanuts, Gar snatched one hand away from the bag and ruffled the peanuts, spreading them out inside the trunk so that they filled as many crevices as possible.

Once he was satisfied, he placed his hand back on the bag and finished sprinkling the last of the peanuts, with only a few more sliding out until the bag was completely barren, just as the others beforehand were.

"Woo! And we are finito." Gar cheered, gently shutting the trunk so that the peanuts didn't escape.

He balled up the plastic bag and chucked it off screen to join the others. Turning back towards the car, Gar pulled out Dick's car keys once again. He tapped a button and suddenly all four windows that he had wound down initially, began to slide back up until all of them were closed once again. He exhaled and wandered closer to the camera, his hands resting on his hips after stashing Dick's keys again.

Sweat glistened against his forehead and he squinted his eyes, trying to fight off the bright rays of sunlight blurring his vision.

"I'm so glad I'm done cos' I'm literally about to go and cannonball the pool… it's so freakin' hot out right now. It's like a thousand degrees, jeez." Gar gasped, his forehead creasing as his face contorted with discomfort.

He stumbled towards the camera so much that only his t-shirt filled the frame. Gar fiddled with the device for a long moment before the camera jerked and he was lifting it off of the tripod, where it had just been attached.

Lifting the camera up, Gar looked into the lens which was turned on himself.

"So… now that I'm all done, I can give you guys a close up." Gar murmured, the image on the camera blurring as he spun the camera around so that the lens was now focused on Dick's car instead.

It jostled back and forth as Gar made his way back to the car. As he reached one of the windows, Gar slowly lifted it up, gently pressing the lens up against the glass so that the interior was visible.

Inside, the peanuts had completely flooded the seating and spaces between cushioned seats as well. In the front, there were no signs of the gearshift or the pedals, both of which were buried under the styrofoam.

In the back seats, the level of peanut pieces reached the bottoms of the windows, with a few pieces spreading out onto the parcel shelf behind the seats.

The headrests were pretty much all that were sticking out from the styrofoam mass that had accumulated inside of Dick's car thanks to Gar himself.

Taking a step back from the window, the camera was able to reveal just how much was packed into the car on account of the pure white that was visible through the dark tint on Dick's windows.

Gar snickered from behind the camera before noisily breathing out, "Dick really is gonna murder me though… but like, at the same time, I'm still finding this prank hilarious!"

With that, Gar snorted and burst into a round of laughter; pouring deep from his belly.

The image on the camera swirled as Gar pivoted the camera back around so it was directed at his face.

He smirked, the expression laced with mischief, "Aaand now that I'm all done here, I'm gonna go flop into the pool before I die from the heat."

Gar paused and yanked Dick's car keys from his pocket and clicked a button, the lights on Dick's car flashing just once to let Gar know it was now locked again.

"I'll catch up with you guys in a while, once Dick and Kory are all ready to leave." He flashed his viewers a cheeky smile and winked, "See you guys in a bit! "

6:15pm

Gar bared his teeth in a huge grin as he held the camera up towards his face, with Vic and Raven trailing just behind him as they exited through the front door of the house, into the dying light of sunset which washed over the three of them as soon as they stepped off of their front doorstep.

"We are back, guys." Gar murmured, seemingly lowering his voice on purpose, "I'm coming out here now to show Rae. Vic already saw it earlier, after I turned the camera off. Dick and Kory are just finishing getting ready to leave so I thought we'd have a sneak preview and then be out here for the grand reveal to Dick before he dismembers me."

Raven's indigo eyes widened a fraction, "God, what did you do, Gar?" She asked, her brows creasing as she continued to walk out into the front courtyard with him and Vic.

"Aw, Rae… wait til' you see it." Vic scoffed, already holding his gut to stem some of his laughter.

Gar briefly turned his head towards her, "I… y'know… pulled a prank on Dick… one that he may or may not appreciate."

Vic sniffed, "He's not going to appreciate it."

Scuttling ahead and spinning the camera away from his face and squarely on Raven to record her reaction, Gar steadied the camera once he came to a stop, just across from Dick's car, with Raven wandering into the frame.

"What am I even looking… oh my God, Gar…" Raven gasped, her mouth dropping open in shock.

Her feet carried her straight over to the car and she cupped her eyes with one of her hands to examine the inside, "What in the… this is crazy…" She said, her tone soft,

"It took less time than you'd probably guess. Record timing with this one." Gar stated, absent-mindedly.

Raven slowly straightened up and turned to look at him, her arms crossing over her chest whilst her facial expression was hesitant. Although, there was a tiny smile that looked to be threatening to appear.

"You're right." Raven told him, one of her brows rising, "Dick is going to kill you."

Gar snorted and from the jerking of the camera, it was obvious he had shrugged his shoulders at that. Raven continued to look past the lens of the camera at her boyfriend whilst a laughing Vic walked around the side of the car, looking in through the windows.

"Kory literally told me about 10 minutes ago that they're running later than they'd meant to… Dick is already going to be stressed out and this is going to make him explode…" Raven scoffed,

Gar chortled behind the camera, making it shake, "Awesome."

"You're such an idiot." Raven huffed, smiling and rolling her eyes,

Suddenly, the sound of the front door opening reverberated and Vic and Raven immediately wandered away from Dick's car, hidden from obvious view beside Vic's car.

"Oh! What are you all doing out here?" Kory giggled as she took a step off of the front porch.

Gar made his way back around the cars so that he stood directly in front of the door where she had just come from.

Vic whistled and smiled, in spite of the chaos that was about to ensue, "Girl, you're lookin' gorgeous!" He commended,

Kory smiled and lifted her shoulders a little at his compliment, "Thank you, Vic."

"Ah, you went for the black in the end, huh?" Raven smirked,

The redhead nodded and spread her arms out a little as she looked down at her outfit.

Kory wore a black, figure hugging dress which clung to all the curves that a woman would want it to. It followed down the line of her long legs, the hem brushing against the floor. There was a single split that ran all the way up one side to her hip, revealing the tan skin of her leg and a single silver ankle strapped high heel on her foot, increasing her already impressive height.

Her neck and shoulders were on display in a sexy yet tasteful manner with the neckline of her dress being a low cut, off shoulder and short sleeved style which seemed like a very good choice on her part, due to the heat that still hung in the air.

Kory had her long auburn hair pinned up and twisted behind her head in a cute yet soft way, with just a few strands loose to frame her face.

"Yes. I do love the green one but the long sleeves on it… I would not be able to cope. It is slightly cooler in Gotham but…" Kory shook her head adamantly, "It would still be too much."

Raven laughed quietly and nodded her head.

Kory turned her head towards the door as it opened once again, revealing Dick who's brows were knitted together as he patted his pockets and his chest, checking he had everything he needed.

The dark haired man was wearing a simple yet pristine black tux, with a bow tie placed in the center of his collar, straight and looking as crisp as it would be out of the packaging. His white shirt was wrinkle free and tucked in very carefully, giving him quite a dashing appearance.

"Are you ready, my love?" Kory asked, her voice warm,

Dick looked up and hummed, "Uh… I think so. I've got my keys, wallet…" He shrugged his right shoulder, where a bag was slung over, "I've got our bag for the night… uh…"

As he came to stand beside his girlfriend, Kory placed a hand on his upper arm, "I am sure anything we forget, Bruce will have, Dick."

"Right." Dick puffed, "God, I hate these things."

"It will be fine…" Kory murmured, leaning in and pressing a kiss to his cheek, wiping at it immediately after so no lipstick mark was left against his pale skin.

As if suddenly realizing that the others were outside as well, Dick lifted his chin and his eyebrows shot up, "Oh… you guys are out here… Kory was looking inside for you, wanting to say bye… what… what are you doing out here?"

His voice turned suspicious so quickly, it was like Dick knew exactly what they were up to.

"Just uh… coming out to see you off, dude." Gar said, his voice giving no hints as to what he had done in the slightest,

Dick narrowed his blue eyes at him for a long moment, "Riiight…" Dick drawled, clearly not convinced, "Well… Kory wanted to remind you to feed Silkie… and we should be back around midday tomorrow…"

As Dick spoke, Kory looked sceptical as well and she furrowed her eyebrows and fixed her grip on the black clutch in her hand as she peered across at Raven who bit down on her lip to resist a giggle and jerked her chin in the direction of Dick's car.

Kory followed Raven's line of sight and took a small step to look over at the car, narrowing her eyes before realizing what was wrong.

Her emerald eyes widened and she gasped, her free hand flying to her mouth but not before a stray laugh escaped.

"Oh, Gar…" She whispered,

Dick turned towards Kory, with a questioning look on his face, "What is…"

He paused and also followed Kory's gaze, his eyes landing on his car and the penny dropped instantly.

"What…" Dick said, in pure disbelief before he marched over to his car to get a closer look, followed swiftly by Kory and then Gar who jogged to keep up with Dick's pace.

The camera jostled and the image blurred momentarily before stilling as soon as Gar stopped on the spot, just in front of Dick's car.

The owner in question was staring straight through the windows of his vehicle, "Gar! What the fuck!?"

Gar snorted from behind the camera, "You just got PRANKED, SONNN." He hollered,

Kory shot the camera a look, her fingers still hiding her lips which were undoubtedly twisted into a small smile, caught between wanting to laugh but also not wanting to make Dick lose his mind.

Raven and Vic slipped into the edge of the camera's frame, both withholding their amusement, in waiting for a further reaction out of Dick.

After a long moment, Dick stood away from the window and dragged a hand through his hair in frustration before he spun around and glared at Gar, "Dude! What is this!?"

"A prank, duh. I just said that, hence the 'Prank sonnn'." Gar muttered,

Dick pinched the bridge of his nose and exhaled noisily, "Gar. Kory and I are meant to be in Gotham by 7pm at the latest and it's a 45 minute drive as it is. Who knows how long it's going to take me to clear this shit?"

Raven cleared her throat and crossed her arms over her chest, "Why don't you take your bike, Dick?"

Opening his mouth to reply, Dick paused and closed it again, seemingly thinking the idea over. He looked across at Kory who pulled a sheepish expression, "We… could… I can hold my dress up and I can tidy my hair again before we get there-"

Dick sighed and shook his head, "No, you've been so positive about tonight and made such an effort and you look stunning so I don't wanna ruin it by taking the bike." He shrugged and dragged his hand through his dark locks again, "

Kory blushed at his comments and squeezed the hand that wasn't tangled in his hair, "What about your other car?"

Dick glowered over her shoulder at Vic, "It's got some fault with it which Vic was meant to be taking a look at."

"Oh yeah… I uh… haven't gotten to it yet." Vic grinned, lifting his shoulders,

"No shit." Dick huffed, "Fuck… this is so not funny, Gar."

"I mean… I know you're freaking out but it's still kinda funny from my end, just sayin'." Gar told him,

Vic lifted a hand, "Yeah, same here. It's still funny to me."

Dick ran a hand over his face, "I hate both of you so much right now." He muttered,

He sighed loudly and stomped over to the driver's side, squeezing the unlock button on his key fob and grasping the door handle to yank it open.

A mountain of packing peanuts fell out immediately, looking like an avalanche as the majority of peanuts spilled out onto the concrete and over his shiny dress shoes.

Dick pressed his lips into a thin line and glared disdainfully down at them, taking a deep breath and lifting his head to look at Gar with murderous eyes.

Gar instantly began cackling from behind the camera, quickly joined by Vic who gave into a pure belly laugh from where he stood beside his own car, having to place a hand against the hood whilst he gave into his amusement.

Raven smiled and her shoulders shook slightly from the humor of it but she tilted her head and caved into a sympathetic look.

"This is literally the most annoying prank you could have pulled tonight, oh my God, Gar." Dick complained, his fingers sliding through his ebony hair for a third time. He looked at Kory with a contemplating expression,

"Maybe I should call Bruce and explain that we can't make it." He suggested,

Kory chewed on her lower lip and gave him an awkward expression, "Dick, do not forget… we cancelled on the last one and you promised Bruce that we would 'definitely, 100% be there this time' in your words." She reminded him,

Dick flinched and let his head fall back against his shoulders, "Oh yeah… I forgot about that… fuck sake." He cursed, planting his hands on his hips and tapping his foot, irritated.

"Perhaps we could… take a taxi?" Kory proposed,

Her boyfriend slumped and shook his head, "All the way to Gotham? That'll cost us a fortune and it's not worth it."

Raven looked to take pity on the couple and inched closer to them, side eying her boyfriend who, along with Vic was still squealing with laughter behind the camera,

"I have another idea… why don't you guys take Gar's car?" She smirked,

Gar's laughter abruptly stopped and the camera jerked from his movements, "What!?"

Kory giggled whilst Dick sported the first smile since the two had walked out of the house.

"Well, it seems fair, all things considered…" Raven continued, a hand resting on her hip,

"B-But… my car won't make the trip to Gotham! Have you seen some of the bends and roads around there?" Gar spluttered,

Dick chuckled and crossed his arms over his chest, looking decidedly smug now, "Guess you best start helping me get these peanuts out of the car then, huh?"

Gar made several noises before he groaned and sighed, "Well, this prank's freakin' backfired."

"Mhm. Now, get your ass over here." Dick instructed,

"Aww, grass stain, this has not panned out well for you." Vic taunted, his loud laughter continuing to fill the air around them,

Gar mumbled a series of incoherent things as he turned and headed in Raven's direction, stopping just in front of her and handing over the camera, the device wobbling as it was moved.

"Can you film for me please, Rae?" He grunted,

"With pleasure." Raven murmured, the smile audible in her voice.

She hiked it up, fiddling with it until it sat still and was pointed back towards Dick and Kory, both of which were standing adjacent to the vehicle. Gar trudged into frame and made his way across to Dick who was already slipping his evening jacket off and handing it to Kory to keep hold of whilst he rid the car of peanuts.

Kory giggled to herself at the sight and took several paces back, his tux jacket draped over her arm.

Gar sighed and got in there first, digging his hands into the pile of peanuts which was clogging up the driver's side. He flung his hands back, sending the peanuts flying out of the door and onto the concrete, with a few stray pieces zipping into the water fountain behind them.

Raven hummed a happy sound as she continued to record the boys, zooming in a little to get a better angle on the ludicrous scene.

Opening his legs wide, Gar hunkered down and began doggy paddling the peanuts, flicking his wrists repeatedly so that the peanuts were falling out and going between his legs.

"Dude, this sucks!" Gar complained,

Dick, who had made his way over to the passenger's side to clear space for Kory, sighed as he rolled up his sleeves, twiddling with his cufflinks as he did so.

He reached out and opened the door, watching as the scene repeated itself, with the mound of packing peanuts immediately falling out in a bunch, scattering across the ground.

Leaning forward, Dick grunted as he placed a hand on the rim of the door, supporting his weight whilst he used his other hand to forcefully scoop as many of the peanuts out of the car as he could.

"This completely undoes all your hard work, Gar." Vic mocked, laughing and folding his arms over his chest,

"Tell me about it!" Gar shouted,

"Well, next time… maybe don't put packing peanuts in my car when I'm due to be driving up to Gotham, dumbass." Dick shot back,

Gar huffed loudly, "It was funny!"

"How funny is it now, Gar?" Raven teased,

Her boyfriend gave his most sarcastic 'har har' ever before he returned to pushing peanuts out of the car and onto the floor.

Soon enough, there were piles of peanuts beginning to stack up on the ground behind Gar and behind Dick as well.

The two men were huffing as they continued to haul the peanuts out of the car, both of them paying close attention to the pedal area and the gearshift as well, trying to ensure it was completely free from styrofoam.

"Dude, did you at least find it a little funny?" Gar gasped, using his index finger and thumb to pick out the last few peanuts that were wedged in tight spots of the seat and sweeping under the pedals as well.

Dick grunted, "Ask me again when we get back from Gotham."

Gar paused and then snickered, "Well, even with doing this, I still think it was a good one."

Raven floated closer to them, continuing to angle the camera directly at them.

Kory joined her side and hummed, tilting her head slightly, "Well… Dick did look rather handsome… although, he is looking a little like a tired mess right now."

Her best friend snorted from offscreen, "Yeah, neither of them are looking particularly refined at this moment in time."

Vic appeared in the periphery of the frame as he came to stand on Raven's other side, "Ladies, both of your guys look like little puppies digging holes right this second." He chuckled, earning giggles from both of the girls.

Dick paused and let a deep breath slip, leaning on the palms of his hands, "Is this seriously what you were doing all day?"

"Yeah, duh." Gar scoffed but paused, "Well, part of the day. I just kinda took a while with everything, especially since I was filming at the same time."

Shaking his head and laughing incredulously, Dick squinted at his friend, "You're such an idiot. You know that, right?"

Gar grinned and winked across the front seats at him.

Raven neared closer, leaning in and over Gar's shoulder so that she could get a good shot of the inside of the car.

The peanuts on the driver's side were practically all gone aside from approximately five or so which were just floating around but, there were no longer any obstructing the pedals or the gearshift.

There were still quite a few peanuts in the passenger's side but there were more in the foot space, whilst there were none on the seat itself.

Dick pushed himself back and away from the passenger's side, "Kor, is this enough space for you?" He called,

Kory drifted into frame, coming to stand beside her boyfriend and she peered into the car before nodding her head, "Mhm… that is fine for me."

With a sigh, Dick retrieved his jacket from Kory and slipped it back on, buttoning it up as Gar also got to his feet and brushed his knees down.

Kory clicked her tongue and touched Dick's chin, turning his face towards her. He smiled involuntarily as she fussed, running her fingers through his hair to fix it before straightening his bowtie for the final time.

She brushed her hands down his chest and gave him a single once over before she nodded, satisfied with how he looked.

"Do I pass the check, honey?" Dick laughed,

Kory smirked over her shoulder at him, "Now, you do, yes. When you were digging the peanuts out? No. You did not look great."

He chuckled and stooped to pick their overnight bag up which he threw back over his shoulder.

Dick turned and headed for the trunk of the car, grabbing his car key from his pocket once again so that he could press the button to lift the trunk door.

Gar stopped in his tracks on his route back over to Raven. He froze and hunched his shoulders turning around in a rush, "Uh… Dick, I wouldn't-"

But, just as the words tumbled from his mouth, a waterfall of packing peanuts spilled out from the trunk of the car and Dick took a deep, steadying breath.

"Gar… seriously?" He muttered,

Gar lifted his hands in defense, "I was trying to be thorough."

Dick shook his head and clawed a few handfuls of peanuts out of the trunk, creating just enough space for the overnight bag to be wedged inside.

He dumped it in and slammed the trunk door closed. Dick glanced over at Kory tiredly, "Okay, let's get going."

Kory nodded and slipped into the passenger's seat, closing the door behind her.

Dick meandered over to the driver's side and opened the door, leaning against it for a long moment, looking over to where Rachel, Vic and now Gar were standing.

Gar strutted up to Raven, with his arms and hands outstretched towards her, obviously indicating that he wanted the camera back.

The device jiggled and the picture swirled and blurred until Gar held it steady and directed the lens on the couple getting ready to leave.

"Only set us back by 15 minutes but… I'll take it." Dick sighed,

"You know it was fun!" Gar hollered from behind the camera.

Dick smirked and shook his head, peering into the car briefly and speaking to Kory, "Hey, can you call Alfred and let him know we're gonna be a little late?"

She nodded and fished her phone out from her clutch bag.

With that, he too clambered into his seat and buckled up, closing the car door. The engine revved as Dick warmed the car up for the journey they were about to head out on.

Dick began backing up the driveway, the iron gate squeaking and sliding aside as the car approached. Raven and Vic held their hands up to the couple, bidding them farewell for the night.

Suddenly, Dick paused and the window rolled all the way down and he leaned his elbow out, "Please clear up the peanuts too, Gar. It's a mess out here now." Dick called,

Gar waved a hand around in front of the camera, "Yeah, yeah, yeah… get going already! We'll see you tomorrow."

Dick snorted and gave him a salute before he reversed all the way out and onto the street, straightening up and zipping off towards Gotham.

Silence filled the air for a long moment after the couple had finally taken off.

There was a quiet ruckus as Gar rotated the camera around so that it was on his face. He pressed his lips together and sighed heavily, "I don't know what I should do with these peanuts to be honest…"

Raven shuffled until she was standing beside Gar's shoulder, peering into the lens of the camera as well.

Vic appeared on Gar's other side, looking more excitable over the prospect of what else they could do. He suddenly sucked in a gasp and clicked his fingers,

"Oh my… we should collect them up and make a peanut castle." Vic suggested, the excitement clear in his tone and facial expression, "We can make it like a fort if we use the couch cushions in the living room!"

Gar matched his level of enthusiasm and craned his neck in trying to look back at his friend, "Yes! I wanna do that!" He beamed, looking like a kid at Christmas.

He looked back into the camera and held his smile, "Well, guess we know what we're spending the evening doing." He paused and frowned, "Y'know, I actually thought Dick was gonna be more angry than that."

"Maybe the prank just… wasn't that good." Raven deadpanned,

Gar sucked in a sharp breath and turned to look at her, "Blasphemy, Rae! It was not the prank."

She rolled her eyes at him, "Right. Obviously."

Vic nudged Raven's shoulder with the tips of his fingers, "Rae, are you gonna help us build the peanut castle?"

Raven pulled a face, "No." She paused as the two of them put sulking expressions on at that, "How about I watch instead?"

"That works." Vic grinned,

Gar cleared his throat and looked directly into the lens of the camera for a final time, "Okay so now I'm super wanting to build the peanut castle fort thing so that's gonna be it for this video, you guys."

He held the camera further away from them; at arm's length and winked, "As usual, if you enjoyed this video, don't forget to hit the like button and if you're not subscribed, you're missing out so go ahead and smaaash the subscribe button too!"

Raven gave the camera the smallest of smiles whilst Vic beamed, baring his teeth in the cheesiest manner he could.

"Otherwise, I will see all you beautiful people in the next one." Gar held his free hand up and gestured with his index and middle finger, "Peace!"
