[vesperian]

It's times like these I'm glad I live out on the beach.

But I grabbed a few fireworks. What better way to end a day of...sweet reunions.

[Yuri rolls his eyes amicably, but really he's just kinda jaded and hasn't seen the people he's really wanted to see yet.]

Comments

[deadly_legacy]

Does that mean I should come by? [Hi you.]

[vesperian]

[He smiles-- very, very genuinely this time.]

Only if you don't want to break my heart.

[deadly_legacy]

[She smiles back. She hasn't felt time passing, but she's glad to see him.] I'm already on my way there.

[vesperian]

I'll be waiting.

[He'll be on the steps outside the beach house. It hasn't been too long since she left, to be honest, but knowing that she had and that that meant she'd be gone for good -- that stung more than anything.]

I make no promises about keeping up with this

[oldghost]

What? You're not even gonna make somethin' for us? Just fireworks?

You don't expect this ol' man to cook for you, do you?

oh but this is exciting!!

[vesperian]

You know, I have been missing the way you make crepes, old man. Mine just aren't the same.

You just better know I love you, Jane. A LOT.

[oldghost]

Me make somethin' better than Yuri Lowell? [He's not buying it.]

You just wanna put me to work. And when I just got here, too!

[firstaid]

May I come see the fireworks with you?

[She smiles, but it's almost melancholy. This time she's the guest.]

[vesperian]

[Another genuine smile!]

Sure. Think you'll be able to shoot a few off yourself?

[firstaid]

I've never done it before, but I would really like to try!

[She laughs a little, perhaps weaker than she's used to, but she's excited nonetheless.]

If you're at the beach house, I will be right there. I think I remember how to get there.

[dorkenforcer]

What's with the fireworks?

[vesperian]

Who doesn't like fireworks?

[dorkenforcer]

No one I know. Just seems kinda random to be setting off fireworks on the beach, you know?

surprise!!

[viragos]

How sweet?

oh baby yes come to me

[vesperian]

[He'd been hoping--

When he didn't run into her in the gardens and when he didn't see her around the Square shopping, he didn't think--

But here she is now. And he smiles.]

Sweeter now that you're here.

gladly

[viragos]

[ She'd been keeping her distance a little more this time. How long has it been? Very long. ]

You're getting better at the whole knowing what to say to girls thing.

[bravior]

Yuri, you don't sound glad at all.

[vesperian]

Well, well- if it isn't Captain Karol. If I wasn't glad before, I'm just jumping for joy, now.

[He's not jumping, but he is pretty joyful.]

[bravior]

[Maybe it was his imagination before! He grins a little sheepishly.]

Oh, hehe... Are you really that glad to see me?

[artificialsoul]

Fireworks sounds... pleasant.

[vesperian]

Nemu--

[He grins.]

No way. It's been forever.

[artificialsoul]

Ah.

"Yes way".

Gonna play the super late game and you know you love me

[doubleblades]

[A young man appears, pressing the bridge of his glasses against his nose before commenting on the other's statement]

I must presume you have let to see who you wished to meet today. A shame. I suppose such a day isn't going to please everyone.

I LOVE YOU ALWAYS

[vesperian]

You presume right.

[He laughs.]

But hey, maybe someone's waiting around for you.

[doubleblades]

That's highly unlikely. I do not belong in such a place.

[Yep, and he's blunt as always.]
