HAPPY (late) BDAY TO MY DEAR FRIEND @ryzselo!!!!!!! Tommy and Johnny are their OCs <3
hello again, borderlands tag!
“Pretty sure this is a bad idea.”
“What do you mean? This is a great idea!”
“Well… If you say so… But if anything happens, this is on you, not me.”
“Are you kidding? Nothing will happen, so nothing will be on me! You chicken.”
“I-I’m not! Okay, whatever, just go now or I’ll tell dad and papa.”
The only response Tommy could give him was a very gratuitous eye roll. Followed by fixing up the little goggles right on his equally small nose. As well as his hands shifting to tightly hold onto the reins of the makeshift sleigh. Nothing less of the Lawrence ingenuity of the scraps laying around the place.
With just one push, the concoction had slid all the way from the intricate balustrade. To the happiness of Tommy. And to the terrified screams of Johnny.
All of the nooks and crannies, as well as the curves of the impressive staircase at the Jakobs-Hammerlock mansion immediately made Tommy’s brain work at the highest velocity. It wasn’t too hard to construct the ride, especially with the grownups just talking . Wasn’t that boring! Hence Tommy brewed the perfect plan for them both. Right then, he was ready to reap what he had sown.
Speeding through the surface, Tommy couldn’t help but to brighten up with the biggest smile there was. Wind from the momentum ruffling his ginger curls and right from his belly (now being squished by Johnny holding at him from the back), he let out a triumphant laugh. No matter if Johnny was terrified, he himself felt like a victor. The control at his fingertips, clutching onto the ride of his to take him anywhere he had wanted.
Then he saw the end of the balustrade. And at that split second Tommy knew, it wasn’t going to end well.
