oo8 ★ LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN AGAIN

[electrowhipit]

[ One can find Jolt in his yard, surrounded by, and very possibly tangled up in, various strings of Christmas lights. He roots through the mess until he disentangles a strand- and with a careful application of a finger to the appropriate end, the lights flicker to life.

This strand is, perhaps appropriately, bright blue, and Jolt grins. ] Not a bad color, if I do say so myself.

[ He coils up the lights and sets them on the grass, then moves on to the next strand and repeats the process. ]

[And there is someone standing on your sidewalk, just... watching you work. Not helping of course, but watching.]

You get more and more of those things every year.

[electrowhipit]

What? They're fun.

[ oooooh, these lights blink 8D ]

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

You're going to give someone a seizure. Again.

[electrowhipit]

That malfunction was the town and not me and you know it.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

[Just going to saunter up to watch you over your shoulder.]

I'm sure it was. Tell me... are you using music again?

[Flora, had come to visit, when she sees the awesome mess that is his yard.

She laughs lightly.]

Looks like you've been busy, hmm?

[electrowhipit]

[ Flora \o/ He beams. ]

I guess you could say that.

[bbsatbyrobots.livejournal.com]

[Grins right back at him.]

Need any help?

[electrowhipit]

[ considering he somehow managed to get his arm all tangled up? ]

... Probably.

[bbsatbyrobots.livejournal.com]

[Yea, she's going to head over there and help him get his arm out of that mess.]

Are you at enjoying yourself, at least?

[skyruns.livejournal.com]

[Look at who came by to visit, all big and such. He's even laughing a little.] Getting into the spirit again?

[electrowhipit]

Oh, you know me. I'll never pass up the chance to do something flashy.

[skyruns.livejournal.com]

Just be careful... I remember the neighbors complaining about how bright the lights were before.

[electrowhipit]

... Yeah. I won't be going overboard... if I can help it.

[skyruns.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[He looks about the lights and then back at Jolt.] Do you need help setting them up?

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

[Hey have your not!wife coming out of the house]

Nice lighting job.

[electrowhipit]

You think so? All I've done so far is made a big mess.

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

Need a hand then?

[electrowhipit]

Probably. At this rate, I'll decorate myself more than the house.

[crazyclownwoman.livejournal.com]

[claps her hands and laughs]

We could put you out as a decoration.

[silvestris-mage.livejournal.com]

[Hey look, Daine's watching. And possibly clapping.]

Nice job there. I've never been good at putting up lights, myself.

[electrowhipit]

I'm always willing to help you out with that kind of thing, you know.

[silvestris-mage.livejournal.com]

It's much more enjoyable to watch you place them on your own home. My drone husband can have a go at it.

[A pause.]

Are you planning on decorating all the space on your home, or just the roofline?

[electrowhipit]

There's your mistake. You assume I actually plan all this stuff.

[silvestris-mage.livejournal.com]

Oh, so this is just all spur of the moment?
