22nd Invasion - 100% Droning
Jul. 4th, 2011 11:10 am[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!

Here's your towel!

Date: 2011-07-04 10:38 pm (UTC)As soon as the fireworks display had begun, he had huddled himself into a ball against a building and stared wide eyed at the bright lights above with the massive explosive sounds echoing in his ears. Which really? Only made the madness in his mind even worse.
If anything, he is like a frightened animal right now. Hearing things no human should, knowing things no one normal is allowed to and most of all, confused on who he really is.]
Make... make it stop...
