Timeout together?

The boys started fighting over the fish that the Easter bunny brought them just this morning. Ryland thought it would be funny to chunk the fish at Reed's head. I asked him to stop twice, but he continued to laugh hysterically and pelt Reed. I took away the fish, and I put Ryland in timeout. His laughter quickly faded to tears. Reed picked up the fish and joined his brother. He handed Ryland his fish, and Reed sat down beside Ryland.
When I asked Reed what he was doing in timeout? He burst with laughter. He thought it was hilarious. Ryland's tears dried quickly, and the boys went back to having fun.
