Case 21: Turnabout Fireworks

[little_thief]

[Kay is all up on this 4th of July stuff, and even though she's worried that something like Westport might happen again, she's not going to let that interfere with her enjoyment of the holiday.  She's taken most of the money she has saved up from her job at the Neutron Diner and bought as many fireworks as she can - sparklers, bottle rockets, roman candles... all that good stuff.  She's busily setting it up in her yard, and will gladly invite anyone who feels like stopping by to join her.]

[Non-drone, non-Grady, non-Mayor, non-Milkman filter]

"Hey, I got some fireworks if anybody wants to come around and set them off with me later.  Also - are there any ninjas in town?  Would anyone be willing to teach me some ninja type stuff?"

"Oh, hey!"

[Smiles, jumping up from her pile o' explosives and kissing Yamamoto on the cheek.]

"Happy 4th of July!"

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

Hey.

[ He laughs and kisses her on the lips. ]

Happy Fourth? It's a holiday here, right?

[Kay's in a good mood today, so that kiss will last a few seconds longer than normal. Just a little. :)]

"Yup! Independence Day! It's one of my favorites, right up there with Christmas."

[ Yamamoto does not mind this at all. :D ]

Oh, fun! I hear there's fireworks and barbeques and stuff.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Fireworks are fun. I love the big huge loud ones.

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

Me too. [ Pauses. ]

Speaking of fireworks, Tsuna, Gokudera and I are all going to see them later. You want to come?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Sure, sounds good!

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

Great. Now, tell me about what you've got going on over here.

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

Just more fireworks. Bottle rockets and roman candles and stuff. I was thinking about lighting them off in the yard later.

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

Sounds like it'll a blast. [ GET IT? ]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

[That is just too cornball for her not to laugh.]

"W-wow, that was pretty bad!"

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

...Guess a career in comedy isn't for me then.

[ But he's laughing anyway. ]

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

So when is everyone heading out for fireworks?

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure, actually. Probably this evening?

[thief-of-truth.livejournal.com]

All right, I'll be there!

[ignorant.livejournal.com]

Great! [ And have another kiss, for good measure. ]
