"Operation: Prank Brad!"
Characters: Akira, Brad, Will, Dino & Keith
(I’m hitting a lull with this work. I suppose a little coffee break wouldn’t hurt.)
(I still have some of the chocolates Akira gave me.)
…?
(Something feels off… Am I imagining things?)
Akira: (Whoo! That’s another day Brad didn’t notice what’s up!)
(He has no idea he’s fallin’ for my trap… hehehe!)
(I really gotta hand it to Dino, though.)
(It’s really something, comin’ up with a prank for someone as guarded as Brad…)
───
(A few days ago)
Akira: Hey, Brad. Headin’ to work this early in the morning?
Brad: I have a meeting to attend.
Akira: Damn, that’s rough.
Here, take this piece ‘a gum! It’ll wake ya up!
Brad: ……
Akira: W-What?
Brad: I don’t suppose you’re up to no good?
Akira: N-No way! I’m being nice! What kinda person has a problem with that?
Brad: Well, I appreciate the sentiment, but I’m fine without. It wouldn’t do for me to be chewing gum during a meeting.
Akira: Huh, wait up! Daaamn…
Will: Akira… you weren’t trying to prank him, were you?
Akira: I-I wasn’t! I was just tryna be nice, I swear!
Will: Oh really. Just yesterday, you switched my milkshake with Oscar-san’s protein drink.
Akira: Your reactions were great ♪ The way Oscar’s eyes started spinnin’ when he tasted that sweet-ass drink was crazy!
Will: What are you, five?
I’m sure you got a kick out of pranking Ren, and wanted to do it again, right?
Akira: T-That’s not it! I’m tryna get in character for the Halloween League!
Will: Even so… make sure not to take it too far, got it?
Akira: I know…

(I wonder what could work…)
Keith: Yaa~wn, I’m so sweepy…
Dino: Pull yourself together, ‘kay? We gotta go on patrol now.
Keith: But I can’t help being sleepy, now can I?
Akira: (Ooh, perfect timing ♪)
Keith, Dino! Want some gum? It should wake ya right up!
Keith: Ooh, count me in. I’ve been cuttin’ back on the cigarettes, so I’ve been craving somethin’ to nibble on. Gimme a piece~
Akira: Here ya go.
Keith: Thanks a bunc—
GWAH?!
Akira: Woohoo! Ya totally fell for it!
Still feelin’ sleepy?
Keith: O-Ouchy… The hell is this, why’s it pinchin’ me…?
Akira: That was like stealin’ candy from a baby… hehehe ♪
Man, I wish Brad fell for stuff as easy as you do.
Keith: Ya tried this on Brad too?
Akira: Yeah. But he’s always on max defense, so none of the stuff I tried worked.
Keith: That’s his whole shtick. There’s no way he’d fall for any old prank.
Dino: You’re trying to prank Brad, huh ♪ That brings me back.
Akira: You’ve pranked him before?
Dino: Yep. I wanted to do something about that sour look of his, so I played all sorts of tricks on him ♪
I’d stuff myself into a locker and jump out on him, and hide behind walls and then pop out in front of him, and once I stuck myself to the window in front of him.
Keith: And I always had to be there getting freaked out instead…
Dino: But Brad laughed, didn’t he?
Keith: I mean, what else could he do at that point?
Akira: That’s wild, Dino! Ya managed to make that poker face laugh?!
Dino: Nihihi, I sure did ♪
Ah! I can help you prank Brad, if you’d like.
Akira: Really?!
Dino: Of course! Brad’s always working his butt off, so a good prank could help light him up ♪
Akira: That’s great! You’re the best ally I could ask for!
Dino: But we gotta set some limits. We can’t be doing anything that would cause problems for him.
Pranks and surprises have gotta be full of love and peace ☆
Akira: Roger that! As long as it surprises Brad, I’m all ears!
Dino: Alrighty, then let’s grab some pizza later and put together a plan!
Akira: You bet!
Keith: How old are you two, again…
───
Akira: We’re still goin’ strong, Dino! I’m refillin’ them now.
I know! I’ll make sure it’s not too obvious I’m addin’ more.
I can’t believe Brad hasn’t noticed the chocolate stash not goin’ down at all… hehehe ♪
I’m gonna have him eatin’ chocolate for the rest of his life at this rate!
