22nd Invasion - 100% Droning

[It's such a lovely day for fireworks and 4th of July celebrations today!  And a certain little Squid Minamimoto down on Stone Street just can't contain her excitement.  After all, she's lived in Mayfield her whole life and the Indpendence Day celebrations have always been one of her favorite things to do with her family.  Ever since she was a little girl, she was mesmerized by the flashing lights in the sky.]

[Action; 452 Stone Street]

[Squid comes running into her parents' bedroom at the crack of dawn, jumping onto the foot of their bed and bouncing up and down excitedly.]

Come on, come on, come on!  Get up, get up, get up!  It's the 4th of July!  We have to go hot dogs and watch swimming and grill fireworks and stuff!

[Yup, so excited that she can't even form coherent sentences.]

[Action; outside 452 Stone]

[After waking her parents up and eating a big healthy breakfast of bacon and eggs, Squid's running around her front yard with two handfuls of lit sparklers.  Looks like she can't even wait for the sun to start going down before she starts celebrating things.  Unfortunately, she's kind of clumsy, so if you're walking by the house, she may trip into you.  If you're really unlucky, you might get hit with a lit sparkler while she does so.  Whoops!

A little bit later on, when she's done with that, she can be found sitting on her front porch with a plate full of delicious 4th of July cuisine - not the typical 'giant pile of raw shrimp' her friends would be used to seeing her eat, but rather a cheeseburger, a hot dog covered in ketchup, a heaping helping of potato salad, and a nice cool can of Coca-Cola to wash it all down.]


[Phone; unfiltered]

Hey, does anybody want to go swimming with me?  It's just not the 4th of July without swimming!  Mr. and Mrs. Honda?  Gilgamesh?  Are you busy today?

[Action; evening; fireworks display]

[It's evening, and Mayfield's big yearly fireworks display has started.  Squid got there hours early to get the best seat, and is now just staring upward, eyes sparkling as brightly as the shapes exploding across the sky.  During particularly big, colorful, or otherwise impressive displays, she actually jumps up out of her seat and pumps her fists in the air, cheering.]


Wow!  That was awesome!

[FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER.]

I'm here~!

Hey! Mom said it was okay, so we can go right now!

[She's already dressed in her swimsuit and carrying a towel for each of them. Hers has crabs and shrimp and stuff on it, since she's always loved the ocean.]

Here's your towel!

Oh? One for me? Thanks!

[Throwing it over his shoulder.]

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-04 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, yeah, mom wanted me to give you one too.

[Kicking at the dirt a little.]

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-04 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Who knows. Moms are weird.

[Grabbing him by the hand.]

C'mon, let's go!

[identity profile] kinpika.livejournal.com 2011-07-04 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm coming, I'm coming.

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-04 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you gonna go see the fireworks later too?

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
N-no!

[SHOVING HIM AWAY]

Who said it was like that?

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, good! Because that's not what this is at all.

[identity profile] kinpika.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
I think it would be cool if it were a date though.

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's not one.

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah! Glad we worked that out.

[Looking all indignant and blushing. But also reaching for his hand again.]

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-05 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, then let's go!

[The moment passes quickly. Now she's all fired up again.]

Are you going to go off the diving board?

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-06 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I'm gonna do the biggest cannonball ever!

[identity profile] kinpika.livejournal.com 2011-07-06 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
What if I do a bigger one?

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-07-06 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
But I'm the best at cannonballs!
