*jumps out and runs towards the bots and the pile of sand*
Is he all right? Garius!
*starts to dig with her hands*

Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence Posted Jun 14, 2004
*sees Garius beginning to emerge from under the sand and pounces on the hand holding the grenade, clasping her hands over it*
Somebody bring the pin over here!

Red (and a bit grey) Dog Posted Jun 14, 2004
I'll get it 
*grabs pin from the deck, starts to clamber over the gunwhale but slips. The pin goes sailing up into the air in an arc*

Coniraya Posted Jun 14, 2004
Oh me gawd!
*as she sees the pin go flying*
*does her best to catch it, fumbles, nearly drops it....then holds it up in triumph*

*falls overboard due to some overexcited jumping up and down in a bobbing raft by a fellow adventurer - no name no pack drill no need to point the finger but I think we all know is responsible here don't we*
SPLASHHHHHH

*in their eagerness to dig their boss out, the bots are tossing sand into Lil's eyes*
Ack! *her grip loosens on Gariu's hand holding the grenade*

Garius Lupus Posted Jun 15, 2004
*Still a little dazed, spits sand out of mouth in Red Dog's general direction.*
Pin? Pin? What pin?
*Looks down at his hand*
You know, this looks an awful lot like a pineapple, which, for some strange reason gives me a craving for blanc-mange. But without the duct tape. Or the lego block. Or the eel. Say, this eel is looking a bit stretched and there is quite a pull on that arm. Thanks for helping with that, Lil. It's awfully nice of you to hold my hand. Are you doing anything Saturday night? Have you noticed the way the light glints off of these people digging me out of this sugar bowl? Isn't that sweet? I think I might take a little nap now...

Garius, wake up! We already have a date on Saturday night to fight Evil, remember?
*shakes sand out of her hair and gets a better grip on the grenade itself while she waits for Caer to insert the pin*

Garius Lupus Posted Jun 15, 2004
*dozing off*
...yes, date...Evil.. 
...look out!....grab his Vespa!.......the zombies, the zombies......Oh, Wanda!...

Coniraya Posted Jun 15, 2004
*wriggles the pin in between Lil and Garius' fingers*
Let's hope it is the right pin!
*steps back*

Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence Posted Jun 15, 2004
*studies the grenade and decides the pin is in right, and lets go of Garius' hand and the grenade*
*scrunches her eyes tight shut*

Red (and a bit grey) Dog Posted Jun 15, 2004
*Rises very wet out of the shallows and gets a face full of second hand sand. Falls back into the water*
SPLASHHHHHHHH

*Disembarks*
Well, that was fun. Let's not do it again.

Garius Lupus Posted Jun 15, 2004
...mantilla comb....no! no!.......not that!......it's gonna blow! 
*GL sits bolt upright and hurls the grenade, with the lego and eel attached, as far as he can, which isn't very far because of the weight of the eel. Nevertheless, it is far enough to reach the water.*

Afgncaap5 Posted Jun 15, 2004
*Watches the lego, grenade, and eel fall to the safety of the water*
Good thing that's over with.
