Case 210 [Video]

[manofgnee]

So, it's still dark out. Can't say I'm surprised...I didn't think the stars could actually go out, but...well, City. You never fail to surprise me...

And speaking of surprises, look what I can do!

[Hanna grins and snaps his fingers, illuminating the video with a small flame at the tip of his finger.]

Cool, huh? No pain or chest issues or blood or anything! I've been using this to see around here, since it's so dark and I have a feeling the lights won't be back for a while still...comes in handy.

Now, with that all set up, I'm gonna go out and look for trouble. Can't imagine it's completely safe out there, being so dark, so...trouble, here comes Hanna!!

Never been there.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I have. It really is sketchy and potentially dangerous, so you'd need to be incredibly careful.

[Neil seems a little uncomfortable with the idea...]

But if anything tries to like, I dunno, attack or whatever... you can just burn the crap out of 'em. Right?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I can do that. Also, hammer.

...you don't have to go if you don't want to, Neil. I know the Underground isn't exactly the nicest of places.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Rock on. [Yeah, he actually just said that.]

N-no, it's cool! I can go. I wanna go.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Did you seriously just say that, dude?

[He laughs and grins. Oh, Neil.]

Really, though, if you're nor comfortable, I'm not gonna fore you into anything.

[He laughs a little and ruffles his own hair nervously, which has the side-effect of revealing how red his ears are.]

Nah, I wanna go. [Well, he wants to hang out with you, Hanna!] You're not forcing me.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, if you're sure...and if they don't have anything there and we get in trouble, you are free to smack me when we get out of there.

[Hanna grins.]

Your ears are red, you know that?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

O-okay. Deal.

[He hurriedly smooths his hair back down over his ears.]

No they're not?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, now they're not, now they've got hair all over them.

[Shrug. Then grin. Oh, Hanna, you oblivious derp.]

C'mon, let's go have an adventure!!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

'Kay. Let's see what this whole Underground thing's about.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Gnee, awesome! Let's go!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Neil equips himself with a pocket knife, as if that will actually do him any good if they wind up in trouble. But at least it's an optimistic precaution.]

Maybe you should go ahead, because uh. Of how you've been there and know where you're going and stuff. [Yeah. That's why.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh. Uh, yeah, right. Smart.

[Derp.]

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Neil is just gonna... try to focus on the outcome here.]

So, fireworks. Better be some really awesome stuff.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

No, totally, they'll be really great! I'm good with fireworks.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

What're you planning?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

More deity insulting fireworks, naturally!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

'S awesome. [Big grin.] Don't think I'd have the guts to do that.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Nonsense! I think you've got it in you.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Y'think so? Really? [He considers that.] Guess I do have some stuff to get back at 'em for.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You and me together, we can insult them so bad they'll wanna cry!!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Think anyone's ever made 'em cry before?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

First time for everything, right?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Oooooh, and this is a wicked look that comes over his face.]

Yeah. First time for everything.
