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!!

Yeah, I dunno. He's too... smart sometimes. Or whatever.

[What Neil kind of means is 'sensible' or 'practical' but 'smart' works.]

'S cool, y'know. To have... other friends. Different.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

He's practical, yeah...but that's not always fun or adventurous.

[Hanna pauses, and nods.]

Yeah. Yeah, it's really nice. 's why I like this place, you know?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Someone who gets it! You're awesome, Hanna.]

Yeah! Yeah. I mean, at home, was just the same people, 'nd some of 'em liked me okay, some didn't. But here, 's like I have a whole ton more chances or something.

[YOU TOTALLY GET HIM BRO. Hanna nods and smiles.]

I know exactly how you feel, dude.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[HE WOULD TOTALLY HUG YOU RIGHT NOW EXCEPT THAT WOULD BE KINDA GAY, SO.]

Let's blow some stuff up.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[SAVE THE HUGGING FOR THE WEEKEND.]

I like the way you think, man.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Need help carrying that or anything?

[He wants to be helpful...]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Uh...sure, you can help me carrying some stuff...I appreciate that, man.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Yay, Neil gets to help. He is happy. Like a puppy.]

Sure thing. So uh, hey, we're not dead yet.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I know, I'm just as shocked as you are!!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Maybe I'm good luck.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Hanna grins and nods.]

Yeah, maybe you are.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

That's probably it.

[So, back to your place, Hanna. You're the one with the fun explodey things.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[Traveling montage, back to Hanna's place!!]

Right, lemme go grab the fireworks...we should prooobably do this outside.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Good idea. Otherwise 's gonna smell really bad.

[...Yeah. That's why it would be a bad idea to set off fireworks indoors. That would be the only problem with that.]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

That, and I've been known to make things blow up that aren't supposed to blow up.

[Like cupcakes.]

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Haha, seriously?

[Details, details!]

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Seriously! My birthday last year, I tried to make cupcakes, and the minute I lit one of the candles on em, they blew up.
