Prefect is being punished for DEFAMING THE GOOD NAME OF BATS

[buywithme]

[Video clicks on, but Prefect himself is nowhere to be seen. Instead, the camera is fixed on...a bat. It's kind of a cute bat, to be honest, and it's hovvering more or less inoffensively in one place in the middle of Prefect's cabin. From it's dainty bat paws, there hangs a document which is surprisingly clearly labeled as "HOUSE DEEDS". After keeping the camera trained on it for a few minutes, Prefect whispers from behind the communicator:]

I think it's waiting for me to open the door so it can escape with those Deeds.

[Pause. Then added a bit more urgently:]

But I don't know where it got them! I don't own a house! I live in a stock room!

[Prefect does a slight pan around just in case there's any doubt about this, and... yep. His room is still full of boxes. He returns the shot to the hovering Deed thief bat. He actually sounds quite calm about this whole thing so far.]

What should I do? My room is supposed to be bat proofed, how did it get i--

[There's a sudden FLURRY OF WINGS extremely close to the camera, and the shot drops to the flood abruptly, giving a shot of Prefect shrieking and flailing at his head.

It's possible that a bat just landed in his hair. It's almost certainly pooping.]

[Added Later]

Do we have any rabies medication in the infirmary?

[What is this I don't even.]

...Shake it off.

Get out GET OUT GET OUT GET OUTTTTT

[Screamed at the bats. While still flailing at his head. He's trying :c]

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

[He just raises an eyebrow] Take your hand man, and hit your head really fucking hard.

Or get in the water. Works with any kinda flying anything.

...

[Sorry Prefect, there is no loyalty in ENDLESS LULZ.]

[peektuttut]

[LOLING FOREVER AND EVER.]

You could - [SNORT] - just open the door. [SNICKER]

I could come get it for you.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[There's a bunch of quick slapping sounds as Prefect smacks his head several times in fast succession. The bat is just hunkering down deeper into his hair to avoid the blows.]

Oh god oh god I don't have any water in my room.

[Wait. HE HAS A SINK! Prefect rushes completely off camera, and you get to hear running water in the distance.]

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[From off camera, beneath the sound of running water.]

Not funny!

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[At first all you hear is the sound of running water. Then finally that stops, and Prefect pics up his communicator again. HE IS... VERY DAMP LOOKING, and a damp little bat is sitting on his head.]

Would you come take them?

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

Just get your head really wet and hopefully the thing'll get annoyed and fly away.

[This is totally trying to be helpful seriously.]

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[SPLASHSPLASHSPLASHSPLASHSPLASH. After a few minutes, Prefect returns onto the camera screen, looking forlorn.]

It didn't fly away.

[There's a little flurry of movement from the top of his head. The bat's trying to shake the water droplets off it's fur.]

How else do you get rid of bats?

[YOU SEEM LIKE THE KIND OF MAN WHO'D KNOW.]

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

[It comes from living in the jungle man.]

....what kind of a bat is it? I mean're we talking like-fruit bat or vampire bat...

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure that whoever the bat gives those deeds to gets the legal right to live in your cabin.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[Prefect reaches up to prod lightly at the bat. It resists the temptation to bite him.]

I think it's a baby bat, but I can't really see it.

[He lowers himself down a little, so Vegas can see the little critter sitting in his hair.]

What kind of bat is it? Vegas would recognize a fruit bat.

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

What kinda bat is it? Vegas would recognize fruit bats.]
...aw, cute little guy.

[Vegas peers at it for a moment.]

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

I'm quite certain my cabin doesn't have deeds. They're probably to someone else's house.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Why would the deeds to somebody else's house be in your room, comrade? That sounds kinda delusional. [GASP.] Maybe it's the rabies.

Let's go withhhhh a bumblebee bat!

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

[It is a cute little guy, but Prefect still doesn't like it. He's getting used to the feeling of it snuffling around in his hair though, as he waits for a reply.]

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

I do not have rabies!

[He's back on screen now, dripping with water and with a bat still sitting in his hair. But after making this bold, non-rabid declaration, a thought occurs to him.]

Actually, maybe I do... I should contact the infirmary.

Gotcha!

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

[Vegas stares]

...an't believe I'm saying this. But you honestly may want to get someone to smack you upside the head.


....Why is he bothering you? he looks kinda cute.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

As far as I know it'd have to actually bite you first.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

What kind of bat is it? Is it the bad kind?

[Prefect frowns.]

He's going to poo. Or possibly give me rabies.

[buywithme.livejournal.com]

He might have bit me! I can feel his little claws!

[una_persson]

Is it just the one, or are there ... more?

[takencareofyou.livejournal.com]

...Doesn't look bad. Then again you can never know with those ilttle fuckers.

Just don't provoke him and he won't. Animals do that shit 'cause they're scared.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Prefect, you're like a hundred times bigger than he is. As long as the little claws aren't digging into your skin, it's not a big deal. Just -- don't bug him and he won't give you rabies.
