[Kuukaku is sitting on the floor once again... but she has ledgers--some are still empty--of notes that she's been working on based on memory for the ones back home and numerous objects are spread out around her. What are the objects? None other than materials for her to make her ignition inks and half-finished fireworks and explosives she was rudely taken from due to the event.

She looks furious.

She dips her brush into the regular ink pot and resumes writing, her pipe laying on a pillow beside her and unused. What dumbass smokes near explosives anyway?!]

Stupid event... Stupid shithead Queen... Going to find the ideal launching site and build my goddamn cannon and she ain't gonna ruin it... No one disturbs me in the middle of my work!

I know that!

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

No, you don't.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

Damn it, yes I do!

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

You wanna accidentally lose a limb, or better yet since you're not eager to die, your life?

1/2

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

No! I just--

2/2

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

...Fine. Whatever. You're right.

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

I don't want you smoking when you're working on your bombs, you got that?

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I got it.

[He's not normally so quick to agree. But he knows she has a point, and he just...isn't in a state of mind to be argumentative.]

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

Good. Just keep that in mind, being the explosives expert that you are, don't think that you're always gonna have luck on your side 'cause a breeze might go the wrong way then you're finished.

And this stupid world isn't exactly the best place to get badly hurt... Somethin' tells me there'd be more screaming and staring than actual helping.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

I know, I know.

The healers are pretty helpful. When you can get ahold of them. [Trust him. He knows.]

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

'When'... Sounds promising.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

There are three or four of them. And Ryohei's almost always around, if it's nothing too serious.

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

And if it is serious?

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

Then Ryohei won't really be a lot of help. He can stop bleeding, but that's about it. Yujinn or Aerith are better for serious wounds.

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

I don't think I've met them yet. But I'll keep those names in mind just in case.

[Because Wonderland isn't dangerous or anything.]

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

All of them'll help anyone who needs it.

Trust me.

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

[Yes, trust the boy who smokes around explosives.]

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

[And gets his ass kicked once a week or so.]

You make them with ink? [He comes closer to look at what she's doing.]

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

[It could be worse, it could go up to twice a week.]

Huh? Oh, those are just my ignition inks.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

How does it work?

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

It can be used to accelerate the rate of burning the fuses but I find it more useful with launching my cannon or fireworks at a distance. Saves on the ridiculous lengths of fuses too so they don't go to waste.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

[He nods. Makes sense to him--he's done something similar before.]

What're you planning to do with all these?

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

Try out a few experiments to see if they can be put to a more practical use. Though it's gonna be difficult if these stupid events keep popping up in the middle of my work. I don't wanna rush with this stuff.

[hurricanebomber.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The events come every week or two.

[fireworks-plz.livejournal.com]

Hn... You've been here a while. Where do you think the best place is to build my second cannon with a proper launching platform?
