Conor rolled his eyes. "Dye? A good prank is what is being asked. And Dye is the best you can come up with? Rookie.. " Finishing up the last of his ale, Conor placed the empty glass on the table. Pranking was all good and fun. In fact, he love the odd day of mischief, but tackling Aran was simply foolish and stupid. Not even himself was stupid enough to take on Aran. To Conor that said enough of the rest of the room. Only Sahra seemed to keep at least a decent repertoire with the Tower Guard and was able to avoid the worst as far as punishments go. "I've had enough. You guys go ahead and prank on Aran. But when he gets you all back I'm going to be the one to say 'I told you so'. And no I won't give you away. I plan to enjoy ever fall you make." Ruffling Sahra's head, Conor shifted his belt before taking one last look at Sasha and left the Common room.

 

 

Conor

Trainee

(not having a good day and feeling guilty he got his mentor in trouble... )

Kopair stared at Xilanin for a few moments, considering his words.  Finally though, he shook his head and leaned forward.

 

"A seeming accident?  Yes, I guess that could work.  However nobody, especially not Aran, will believe you were just accidently carrying dye in a cup through the dining hall Xil.  Dye doesn't really sound like a very appetizing drink," he said with a grin." Taking another swig of ale he signaled for another drink and then leaned back in his chair again, putting his feet up on the table.

 

"No, I think rather an accident while the poor man bathes might work out better.  Imagine master Aran taking a bath in the bath house.  A poor unsuspecting trainee whose turn it is to do chores comes in with another bucket of hot water for him to rinse off with.  He pours a ladle of it over his head to rinse out the soap and realizes the mistake. Some dastardly soul slipped dye into the bucket and left the poor unsuspecting trainee to take the fall. The of course master Aran would be far too clever to suspect someone like quiet Arturus from ever being involved in it." Kopair grinned and took a long swig from his new drink.  "What do you all think?"

Arturus looked at Kopair like he had food on his face. And not just a little piece either, like it was the whole plate. Kopair's idea would work except for one little detail. Arturus had been in the bath house once for all of five seconds. Then he noticed that women bathed there with the men and quickly shut his eyes and turned to run out. However he slipped on water, crashed into some shelves holding towels and soap and destroyed them, and then crawled out to the sound of everyone laughing at him. Master Aran would surely be there when there were an optimal amount of naked women.

 

"Uhm yeah that might work except uh... I bathe in the river over by the falls. Just me being there would be suspicious. Better if Xil did it. Or even better if it was a female, Aran would be so busy staring at her that he wouldnt notice the dye for a little bit. Give it more time to set in. We dont have to do the dye though. We could just slip a small herbal remedy for constipation into his drinks on a night he has a date... which is almost every night if I recall correctly."
