Fangirl with a Peashooter: A Success

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

So because of that connection between the new book and a peashooter, I was curious to see how fun it would be to use such a "weapon". Despite the lack of offensive use, the peashooter turned out to be fun to experiment with.

Mira: *sees brother with a straw and remembers the can of uncooked beans in the kitchen*

            *finds straw and goes to can of beans*

Mira’s sister: Are you going to make a peashooter?

Mira: Yeah, ‘cause Sophos has a peashooter. You too?

Mira’s sister: No, I’m going to plant these.

Mira: Oh. *leaves with beans and straw to try out the peashooter*

Mira: *fails miserably*

            *goes back to sister*

Mira: I keep swallowing the bean.

Mira’s sister: *also has a straw* you do it like this, you put the bean in your mouth and blow it out with the straw.

Mira: Oh.

            *is too busy fangirl-ing to be embarrassed by the fact that she is being taught to use a peashooter by her younger sister*

Mira and Mira’s sister: *shoot various people with peashooters*

Mira’s dad: *comes in*

Mira: Look dad, we have peashooters.

Mira’s dad: *sees the mess of beans*

                        Mira, you’re making a mess.

Mira: But it’s a peashooter.

Mira’s dad: *tells her to take the peashoot-ing outside*

                    *sees sister’s pile of beans*

Mira’s sister: I’m going to plant these.

Mira: *does mental facepalm*
 

I urge you all to try it, for the sake of fan-girl/boy-ing.
