No one should ever be standing outside my window, asking to be let in. My brother was just there, hissing, "Brittany, Brittany, hey!" and holy hell, I fucking screamed.

I LIVE ON THE SECOND STORY.

It was for nothing, in the end. My startled reaction alerted the sister, and she found him anyway.

Oh, that's why. Why didn't he just wrestle the peanut butter away from her?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

It's very difficult to do such a thing and NOT get any peanut butter on you, which is what he was trying to avoid!

[halfling-rogue.livejournal.com]

I've managed it! And if he is a third-level black belt, it should be well within his capabilities! He should consider it training.

You probably haven't fought anything remotely similar to my sister. Have you seen Lord of the Rings?

[halfling-rogue.livejournal.com]

Yes, and if you're comparing her to Gollum, both my sister and brother are worse. They are leeches when they want to be and both are taller and generally stronger than I am. I still manage! Through sheer insanity, I believe.

Not Gollum! Gollum with a black belt. She's tiny but she's buff, she's in as good a shape as your average fifteen-year-old athlete, and it's just ... it's a terrifying thing.

Did he get epically peanut buttered?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

He didn't. Something happened to turn the tables dramatically, but hell if I can remember what it was...

[nellasaur.livejournal.com]

Clearly, it was some sort of Occurrence.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

It must have been! I may have witnessed it, even.

[nellasaur.livejournal.com]

You lucky, lucky thing!

This stuff happens all the time, in my house. In fact, I once tried something very similar, except the lock on the door was picked before I could make it all the way through the window!

Escape foiled?

My sister scared the one cat we have who isn't allowed outside through my bedroom screen and onto the roof one time! A low speed-chase commenced, and if I remember correctly, I was wearing very little at the time.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

You caught a cat? She must have been disoriented by the great outdoors! Or possibly just screwing with you. "I AM ESCAPING. EXCEPT ONLY KIND OF. NOT REALLY."

He was TERRIFIED by the great outdoors, in fact. Also, he was cornered by the side of the house--I was on the porch roof, not the roof roof--and I kind of creeped up on him all crouched over, very very slowly, so as not to scare him into bolting.
