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!!

Duuuuuude! Friggin' sweet!

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I know!!! I feel so awesome right now.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Oh Hanna. You just got even cooler in Neil's eyes, if that was even possible.]

What're you gonna do with it?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I have no idea! You got any suggestions?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Y'know those microwave sleeve thingies for Hot Pockets? If you turn 'em inside out, tape 'em back togheter and then burn 'em, they spark and pop and turn colours and stuff.

That's kinda lame though. There's probably something bigger and cooler you could do...

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

No, no, that's actually really cool. Start small, right?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Yeah, 's a good idea actually. Work your way up and then have some huge grand finale, right?

[totallyinaband]

As long as you manage not to burn your house down.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Exactly! Help me plan out the grand finale, bro.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I guarantee nothing.

[totallyinaband]

As long as you keep a fire extinguisher, you should probably be fine.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that might not be a bad idea...

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Ever done that thing in the movies where they make a trail of black powder on the ground and light it like a fuse?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

No, I haven't...we should do that!!

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Dunno what to put at the end of the fuse though. It'd have to be something really epic.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...fireworks.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[Neil's eyes light up, and his voice drops to a near-whisper.]

...Yesssssss.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You're gonna help me, right?

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Frak yes. There's no way I'm missing out on this.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Awesome.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

D'you know where to get black powder?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...Probably the Underground. Everything sketchy is sold there.

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

Never been there.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

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

[illgrowoutofit.livejournal.com]

[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?
