Marshall was painting. He had the headphones Roxy had given him long ago. He was in his own world. In fact he was as far from reality as he possibly could be as he painted. He hated painting, he only did it because it reminded him of Aidan and now his broken heart. The picture that was spilling out in front of him was of dead trees, a fire blazing in the back ground to show that it was coming for the poor trees. The Russian Blue was rethinking his whole life. Aiden and males in general had given him butterflies in his stomach, but maybe that was a lie. Maybe that was just what he thought. They're had to be something better in this world, He didn't know what it was just yet. He dipped his paint brush in the dark brown paint and scribbled in some brush that was obviously dead. Around him nothing was happening. He was locked in his own mind.
Roxy was playing with a few blades of grass, pulling them out of the ground and twirling them in her fingers then tossing it to the ground. She was slightly bored and she really didn't feel like taking anything apart at the moment her fingers were still stained grey from the grease from the last time she'd taken something apart. She wanted to be outside and around someone for some company. She knew Marshall was over in the corner and was more than likely still pissed off from the events of the last night. She didn't want to bother him with her boredness. She sighed and flopped back onto her back on the grass staring up at the clouds as they slowly slid across the sky, she decided she'd see what the puffy white things made. What shapes they were in. That would surely pass the time.

Having almost napped the complete day away, Puff now wandered some before a certain color stuck out to him and he wandered closer. Coming up to stand almost atop of Roxy, he looked down towards her with a smile. "Hey there." Cheery of course before he looked over towards where another cat was sitting, painting. "Boring day?" He asked turning yellow/green eyes towards Roxy. "This day is a good day for a good mud sprawl, if you don't mind getting a little messy. Maybe we can get ol' painter boy there to join in?" True he had been told the name once but for the life of him, he couldn't remember.

Roxy smiled seeing Puff come into view. " Very boring day." she said sitting up and looking over at Marshall. " His name is Marshall." she informed Puff again. " and I think that We should try to brighten his day, Its been hard for him lately." She pointed out to the other cat. She stood from where she'd been on the ground and dusted herself off. "Just remember, you are taking the fall for this. Not me." She said to him stretching as she let out a small , "where is this Mud pit anyways?" she asked arching an eyebrow.
Marshall really hadn't moved from his position earlier and he didn't intend to. He was far to focused on the painting in front of him. He was damn near finished.

Puff gave an uncaring wave to Roxy as he winked at her, sauntering over towards the much distant male. Leaning from side to some, giving the paining a good look over, his nose wrinkling some before he flopped forwards. Arms folding as he aiming to lean on the top of Marshall's head. Ears twitching a little before coming forwards again, yellow/green eyes narrowing a bit, wondering just what the painting was supposed to be. Opening his mouth he asked, "Whatcha do'in'?" In a very childish and playful tone, his tail twitching behind him. Though deep inside he was cracking himself up with the act, he thought this would be fun, but then again, a good mud fight would be better. That was for sure...

Marshall Tried to jerk his head out from underneith the cat on top of him but he failed. He laid his ears back and hissed towards the other, "It is a forest fire." He grumbled still trying to wiggle out from underneith the other, " Would you kindly remove your dirty self from my head?" He asked crossing his arms over his cheast. His soft blue green eyes narrow at the other. " I don't much apreciate you touching me." He told Puff.
Roxy laughed softly covering her face so she wouldn't be heard by Marshall. She couldn't help it the scene unfolding in front of her was pretty funny. Hilarious even. As much as she cared for Marshall, she also thought it was something to watch the other get irratated.

Puff could hear Roxy behind him, no matter how much she wanted to hide her laughing. To spice it, he gave his tush a little sway, loving her muffled laughs. Keeping his eyes towards the painting, he grinned, unmoving. "A forest Fire huh? What a downer, come on, what you need is a good romp around." He fluffed out a little as his hands tickled at the hair on Marshall's head. "You don't want Roxy to think you are going down that lonely dark road, now do you?" Tilting his head a little to one side, before pulling himself away from Marshall, making it slowly before leaning back a bit.
Folding his arms behind his head now, his eyes going skywards, almost ignoring everything around him. Before looking back towards the sulking Marshall before him. Soon crouching down and wrapping an arm around him. Ignoring that what was said about him having germs, truthfully, he DID have a bath that morning. While he was creating the mud pit of course. "Oh come on, I know a good mud pit to wrestle in. It will be fun then that silly old thing. besides, if you don't like germs... Why do you have pain on your face." With a grin, he dipped a finger into the paint and made a quite streak on Marshall's face. Going too far? Hell ya he was, but he was having fun... Too much fun...

Marshall wiggled madly in Puff's arms, screaching at the paint on his face, " I will not be going anywhere near a mud pit! Let go of me this instant." He grumbled. " I'm serious I won't be having this. I won't be getting dirty. LEt roxy think I'm going down teh wrong road. Just let go of me!" He whined still struggling against Puff's arms. " Hell ******** Roxy just let me go!!!" HE prostested.
Roxy couldn't help it she burst out laughing wrappign one hand around her stomach as her knees buckled and she fell to the ground her eyes tearing up with her laughs.

Puff grinned at Marshall wiggled under his arm, his ears twitching hearing Roxy's laughter behind him. She also heard her drop to the ground laughing, really, was he doing THAT good of a job messing with the downer? Perhaps he wasn't putting too much into all this. Giving a shrug as he pulled his shirt sleeve over his hand and whipped the paint from Marshall's face, or tried to, but it probably just smeared making it even worse. Releasing Marshall he reached over and snatched up the painting that was still wet to say the least. "Well then, if you won't come willingly, I will take this then." He grinned leaping to his feet and heading away from Marshall, the painting in hand, though he was careful not to smudge it. It really did look good for the most part.
"Have you ever seen a real forest fire Marshall?" Puff asked holding up the painting getting a closer look at it. "I'm sure they are way worse then what you have here."Looking back over his shoulder, head lopping to one side a little as he did. "I bet you can do much better then this, but you have to have a little fun before hand. Come on, what's a little romp in the mud? There's a shower off to one side to wash up in after wards." He remained unmoving, still holding the painting by its sides.

Marshall lept to his feet his cheeks growing red and his eyes narrowing, " Give my painting back."He grumbled to Puff. He let his ears fall back against his head and he glared at the other cat, " I haven't ever seen a fire, nor do i want to." He grumbled walking towards the other cat. He'd gone a bit to far with the painting. Marshall had spent days on that thing and he didn't want it being ruined. "I don't like being dirty." He told the other cat still walking towards him his fists clenched at his sides.
Roxy stopped laughing as she heard Marshall's voice change. She looked up and stared at him with wide eyes, Marshall never actually got mad. She hadn't ever seen the grey cat mad before. She bit her lip watching him, Getting to her feet and following him. She'd step in if need be.

Puff leaned to one side a little before holding the painting to his side, the wet side out as he tapped it against his pant leg. Watching Marshall react the way he did, he really had to wonder what would happen if something did happen to happen to the painting... Though he wasn't looking to cause that much trouble. An ear flicking a little he looked back to Roxy before he sighed and shook his head, ears flopping a little as he did. "you need to learn to relax sour puss. Jesh, no wonder someone asked me to mess with you, come on. What's the fun in just sitting here feeling sorry for yourself? Get out there and have a little fun, or have you forgotten what that is?" Extending an arm he held the still pristine painting out to Marshall. "You know, you are good at that. maybe you should have a place where you can store them." With a grin he gave a small shrug to Roxy. "Guess this wasn't how things planned out, but oh well."

Roxy sighed, Obviously this wasn't going according to plans. She had to get Marshall into that mudpit, For some reason the idea of the little grey cat all muddy excited her. She strolled towards the males taking the painting from Puff, " Marshie." She muttered shaking her head, " What is with the death and the destruction?" She asked looking over the painting. " You never were very happy go lucky now were ya?" She asked with a small laugh as she handed the painting over to the other. " I have this HUGE white wall over in my room at the Aquarium," She muttered the lie slipping out easily, " would you come over and look at it? I want you to paint something beautiful for me." She said with a smile looking over at Puff hoping he was understanding where she was going with this.
Marshall took the painting back holding it with love and care, " Let me take this back to my room." He muttered to her nodding softly still glaring at Puff. "It's on the way so it should hold us up much." He told Roxy with a nod as he cleaned up his painting supplies. "How big is said wall?" He asked, " Does the place really need painting?"

Puff smiled at Roxy scratching the back of his head sheepishly before slipping over to be besides Roxy, just about leaning against her for the moment. His yellow/green eyes looking somewhat up at her in a sorry sort of way before he spun away. He could get them to the mud pit, really he could make a new one between there and the aquarium. It was simple, coming close to Roxy, he watched Marshall for a moment before Whispering...
"You get him to come and I will fix a small surprise between here and there. There's always enough dirt hanging around out there and just have to add a little water..." He looked towards her before looking back towards Marshall. "Besides, the other one might already be half dried up by now."
Not really saying anything more, he dashed off past Marshall and out of sight. His plan might work, then again, it might not. For now he looked for a good spot to make a new mud pit. A rut in an old road would be perfect, but around here... Too many cars, but a hold, a good sized one in the sidewalk near an alley? Even better, a grin on his face, he was set to fix up this little mess...

Marshall hadn't hears Puff at all. He was too busy cleaning up his paint brushes and other things. He sighed and turned back to Roxy seeing that Puff was gone, he smiled slightly. " Who is that numbskull anyways?" He asked frowning. " and why are you even hanging out with him Rox?" He asked sounding slightly concerned for the other.
Roxy frowned slightly, " That Numbskull is the one cat who had made me feel alive since....." she trailed off waving her hand to show that she didn't care about the rest of her sentence. " alright lead me to your place." She said not knowing where Marshall had been staying. She chewed on her lip praying that Puff hadn't made another mud pit between here and Marshall's place. She sighed once they reached a small shack, Now she was leading Marshall towards the aquarium. She made small talk with the other looking around for Puff praying to god that he was ready for the two of them where ever he was.

Puff didn't make his pit between the spot they had been and Marshall's place. It was further along closer to the aquarium. Having found a good place, the concrete was old and crumbling. He cleared it out with much speed and carelessness that he just tossed it here and there. With the dirt exposed he looked around for a good water source. Ah! There was one! Bouncing over towards a small bucket, he looked over the rim and smiled even more, perfect! It was half full of water and it would be enough. Pushing the bucket over to the hole, he tipped it over, not really an easy task. With a splush, the water spilled into the hole and mixed nicely with the dirt. using a stick he mixed the mud even more until he was sure it was perfect.
Pulling the bucket out of sight and looking around, they would be there soon and he had to cover the hole. Finding a piece of newspaper he covered the hole, it would be enough. Sprinting back towards were Roxy and Marshall would be coming, he headed to meet up with them and set the small new plan into action. This time it would work, no way he could escape a good mud bath now...

Once Puff had Joined them Roxy slowed her steps so that Marshall was in front of both Puff and her, Joining hands with Puff she winked at him, " I'll tell you where to go Marsh." She muttered to him nodding at his as he looked over his shoulder at the two of them, She Swong they're arms as they're hands were joined together to make it a point for Marshall to see that they were holding hands.
Marshall rolled his eyes at Roxy before he looked back at his feet kicking a small pebble as they walked, he thought about nothing in particular. Taking a handful of steps he came to the newspaper, he glared at the thing obstructing the walk way but he took a step into his falling into the mud he screamed.
