[When the SFC turns on, there’s no one in view. The only thing that can be seen, in fact, is a stretch of beach up on the island. A few yards away from the recording, there is something sitting on the sand. It’s hard to say exactly what it is, but it looks pretty mechanical.

Somewhere offscreen, there’s talking.]

You ready for this?

Born ready. Let’s do this shit.

Right. T-minus five, four, three, two…

[And then it explodes.]


[OOC: Green is Tech, orange is Dirk. Responses will be coming from both of them.]

[And Ky is radiating concern immediately.]

Are you both alright?

[Denzel is moving back and forth on his camera before settling to a corner]

The heck was that?!

Do it again!

Custom glyceryl trinitrate cocktail, testing the potency of an experimental compound. I'm sure you of all people can appreciate the classics.

[Dirk pops his head into the view of the camera, pretty much unruffled.]

Everything's cool.

[Video]

[closedcircuit]

What were you doing?

[shippingmath]

Maybe another time. Got to get more info before we do another test.

Nice to know that someone appreciates the finer things in life.

[Explosions are definitely finer things in life, okay.]

[Not exactly the reaction he was expecting, but not a bad one nonetheless.]

Eventually, maybe. I'm afraid we only had one explosive prepared, and, well...

[The beach is still smoking in the background.]

[shippingmath]

Running a test on a compound. Might see some use for the Defense Force, who knows.

[Besides, blowing things up is fun.]

[Video]

[crackpotcrocker]

All that fun and you didn't invite me?

What's this purpose of this 'experimental' compound?

[Video]

[dotthedisconnect]

[Tech blinks and turns his camera to the still smoldering section of what used to be beach.]

This?

[Video]

[crackpotcrocker]

Bored?

[Video]

[dotthedisconnect]

[Tech grins.]

I don't think you need to be bored to be able to appreciate some old-fashioned explosives.

[shippingmath]

What he said.

[closedcircuit]

[This is Ky's disapproving face.]

You shouldn't play with technology in this way, so casually.

[Video]

[shippingmath]

[It doesn't do much.]

I've been doing this for years. So has Tech. We know how to handle it.

[Video]

[dotthedisconnect]

[Tech chimes in.]

It's true. He has supervision.

[Action offcamera]

[shippingmath]

[If Tech doesn't look out, he'll get an elbow in the side.]

As if I need it.

[Action offcamera]

[dotthedisconnect]

Well clearly someone doesn't agree.

[aim_exorable]

Congratulations on your explosion.

[Action offcamera]

[shippingmath]

That someone also doesn't know me. I can handle myself.

voice;

[shippingmath]

[There is a large chance he will be ignored right now. Dirk doesn't particularly care. As always, your move, Darkleer.]

Thanks, considering that one was meant to happen.

voice;

[aim_exorable]

A shame it did not catch you in its blast.

[Petty bitterness? From him? Never.]

[Action offcamera]

[dotthedisconnect]

If you say so. But I'm not the one you need to convince.

voice;

[dotthedisconnect]

Jealous, Darkleer?
