Rule# 3 "You do what I tell you to do."
She stared down at him, arms crossed, lips pressed in a line so thin they were almost invisible, and radiating irritation as she silently seethed.
It would have been intimidating, scary even, if she hadn't been covered head to toe in random bits of food.
He snickered as green juice dripped off her nose and laughed out right as a bright purple something slid off her head and landed on the ground with a splat.
"And what," she growled, "are you laughing at, slime boy?"
His laughter slowly died as he took in his own appearance and grimaced. He had a bit of food on him, but what was more disturbing and disgusting was the dark red almost brown goo that was splashed all across his front.
"Well?"
He looked up at her and she raised a brow, clearly waiting to hear an explanation. He looked down at his toes. There was no way he was telling her he'd ended up on the wrong end of a sick murkle*.
"Fine don't tell me," she huffed, scowl turning to a sulky pout. "But, new rule: you do what I tell you to do, unless doing what I tell you to do would get you hurt or killed or something, then you do whatever it takes to stay alive, got it?"
"Uh, yes?" he answered, and then gagged as some of the goo got into his mouth.
She sighed. "Just do what I tell you to do, ok?"
"Got it!" He swiped at the goo, trying to shake it off and accidentally got it on her. He froze. "Uh, oops?"
Her eyes narrowed and she bent to pick up the fruit that had fallen off her head.
"Um, sorry I–" A face full a squished fruit cut him off. He wiped his eyes clean, hands coming away full of juice and goo. He looked at her, she was still busy laughing at him, and threw it. She shrieked as it splattered across her chest, but was quick to retaliate with a mashed up jogan. He ducked only to be tackled to the ground.
The game was on and by the end of it they were both equally covered in goo and quickly rotting fruit.
Author's Notes:
* This is not a real Star Wars creature, I couldn't find one (other than a tooka which just didn't fit the bill) that lived in or near the city, so I made one up. If anyone knows a largish creature that can be found in a city let me know and I'll fix it.
