#004 - dictated

[allthelinks]

If anyone's bored, I'm going to be setting some fireworks off on the roof of the Impetus Tower in about ten minutes.

[Yup. Souji was just thinking it's been a while since he's seen fireworks, and then he remembered, it's Paradisa. If he wants fireworks, he can damn well set off as many as he wants to, when he wants to. You know, as long as it doesn't bug people or anything.]

I wished up a big pile. Plenty to go around.

Dude, no that's right above my room. I've got all my inventions in here that I don't want on fire or exploded. Pick another tower!

[allthelinks]

[...but the other towers are way over there...]

What if I set them off on the side of the tower opposite your room?

[whichwayyoulean]

I don't know, can you promise you won't set fire to the roof? Is that a thin you can promise?

[allthelinks]

I can promise I'll try my hardest. ...I'll even wish for some kind of fire-proof canopy if it'll help.

[nukeoleptic]

Any special reason?

[allthelinks]

I just wanted to set off some fireworks. No reason.

[nukeoleptic]

[ Huh. Good enough! ]

Cool! I'll be up in five. Need me to bring anything?

dictated;

[allthelinks]

[Darn right, why think too hard?]

Bring some snacks if you want to. I've already got blankets to sit on and plenty of things to blow up.

[pint_sized_carnivore]

There's the rooftop for that, y'know.

[Dammit, Sooj. She showed you the rooftop herself!]

[allthelinks]

...But this roof is higher.

[And higher is cooler. Everyone knows that.]

[pint_sized_carnivore]

That's true... But that would be too loud. Don't you think our neighbors might complain?

[It's futile Chie, you can't stop the Sooj Train]

[threeweeksago]

Fireworks? Seriously? I've never seen fireworks before!

[allthelinks]

Never? [What kind of sad upbringing, ahaha... ha...] You'd better come up, then. You can't miss this.

[threeweeksago]

[Bro you have no idea.]

Sure, totally. But uh... where exactly is this gunna be? I've only been here a couple of days, so my sense of direction is total shit right now.

[hard_talker]

Now that's a damn good idea. I'll totally be there, man.

[allthelinks]

The more the merrier, there's plenty of room up here.

[hard_talker]

Sweet. [and he shows up shortly afterward with a six-pack of cherry Pepsi and a bag of chips]

Hey, I brought munchies.

[whistles_the_blues]

[He wont answer over the journal, but when Souji goes to set up on the Impetus tower he might see a robot with ridiculous hair setting up some fireworks of his own on the Pietas Tower.]

[allthelinks]

[It takes Sooj a minute to catch the movement coming from over on the other tower, but catch it he does. Now, then, it appears they are going to have a duel of the explosives. Except Souji's are the little ones that you light with a match and take a few steps back and watch, so, it probably won't be that amazing a duel.]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Well they can't exactly set up up the big fire works on top of a tower without setting something on fire, so Blues doesn't exactly have anything impressive himself. He could use his arm cannon, but with a flawed power core that show wont last too long.]

[therealrisette]

Senpai...?

[She's not so sure about this idea, Souji...]

... Are you sure it's safe up there?

[She asks the boy who may or may not have eaten his cousin's science fair project...]

[Dictated]

[allthelinks]

[Shhh, don't spoil the fun, Rise.]

I'm sure. I'm staying away from the ramparts.

[It's not like the roof's huge, but there's enough room. It'll be fine!]

Did you want to come up? You could light off a few little ones.

[His courage is through the roof, baby. Grass, bad tofu, scary hospitals, he fears nothing.]

[Dictated]

[therealrisette]

[Well... it does sound fun. And she's never been to the top of the towers before. If Souji says it's safe, she believes him.]

Sure! Just give me a few minutes to get up there, okay?

[kindnessing]

[ fireworks! it has definitely been a while since ken's seen any - he left his world right before any end of the summer festivals. he'll hike on up to the roof, grab a sparkler if anyone's offering and sit a ways away from everyone else, watching the sky light up. ]

[allthelinks]

[The fireworks are in full-swing now, with Souji and others igniting little, harmless things. Nothing too giant, no ear-splitting cracks, he doesn't trust himself to do some real pyrotechnics, but there's pops and gunpowder smell to go around!

Seeing someone sitting off on his own with nothing but a sparkler, Souji steps away from the whirring, spinning thing he'd just lit and takes a few steps over toward him.]

Not going to try anything but that? [He points to the sparkler.]
