θ-10 Come one, come all!

[bit_impossible]

[As soon as the sun as set, Doctor John Smith is up in a grassy area somewhere off near the malt shop, with a peculiar setup before him. But...those who know a thing or two about pyrotechnics will know exactly what he's about to do.]

[He turns his CAT on, a big, broad and excited grin on his face]

Hellooooooooooooo Luministi!!! It's that time of year again, and as always, the Mayor has asked me to kick off the celebration with a little display. [there's a mischievous twinkle in her eye] Not even Soph knows what I've got planned this year, so! I think it's about time I show you!

[He shuts the CAT off, and there is nothing for a few moments...

...but then, there's a high-pitched whine followed by an explosion of colour! One after another, fireworks shoot up into the air, and the good doc has not skimped on them. There are ones that change colors, shoot up into different formations, some that even transform from one shape to another.

The display will go on for a good hour, but while those are going on, the festivities have officially started! Parties in the town square with food, game, and drinking booths will go on. The rides are up in full force. There's even dancing going on in the southern shopping plaza area as well as the botanical gardens. Everything the mayor mentioned and more is there for everyone to partake in.]


[ooc: And here's the party post, everyone! Threadhop and stuff as you want! I'll leave it up to you guys to form threads based on location or event. But have fun! I'll tag in when I can! (And if anyone wants to direct tags to Ten, please say so in the subject line so I can see them!]

[and where there's ice cream, there's bound to eventually be terezi. she's already excited by the many different colors and is bouncing on the balls of her feet, giggling some here and there.]

Looks like no one got hurt in the tasty explosions! They really did a good job this year, I think. Which makes me wonder if any of the stuff here is just as good as the light show!

[The waitress, seeing that there's a customer, steps away from where she's talking to Jamie and over towards Terezi - which prompts a slightly disappointed look from the Scot. It does mean he's freed up for conversation, though.]

Aye, Dr. Smith always does. He's a clever man. I'd bet ye, though, the ice-cream'll be a wee bit safer to eat. What one's struck your fancy, then?

[terezi_pyrope]

[she can smell the disappointment! it goes well with strawberry and blueberry she decides.]

The one with all of the flavors, minus chocolate!

[and then a little more bluntly while she's waiting with a mischievous grin:]

Is the nice lady your girlfriend?

[bonnypiperlad]

[Nothing like a little fruit-flavored disappointment to make an afternoon, right? And all of the flavors minus chocolate is...going to take the waitress a bit to put together. Which she goes to do, leaving only Terezi there when Jamie reacts.]

My girl... No, she's not! We're just friends, that's all. Nothing more than that.

[Someone may be protesting that a bit too much there.]
