[First there is the sound of crackling fire. Not a nice campfire or fireplace. Large, dangerous flames. Then above that is the sound of someone stomping their feet around. Then suddenly, a shout.]

Riley! Get over here!

[Running footsteps and the sound of door creaking open.]

What is this!?

Smuggler's hold. Get in!

[The sound of two people landing on their feet.]

Follow me.

[Two sets of feet can be heard running as fast as they can.]

Get down! [There's the sound of Riley being thrown to the ground, and then another door slamming shut.

Finally a giant explosion sounds, and the feed cuts off.]

[ooc: Plain text is Riley, Italics is Nic Cage Ben.]

I... take it that wasn't a film, was it?

[lookstairs]

If it was I'd be paid a lot better than I am.

[grandest_delusion]

So that was a real explosion? No pyrotechnics at all?

[lookstairs]

Very real, unfortunately.

[grandest_delusion]

... cool. Er, sorry, I just yeah.

It's kind of like the first episode of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger where the curry shop implodes suddenly in the pirates face.

[lookstairs]

Well, I'm...not sure what that is, but it really wasn't anything like a TV show.

[grandest_delusion]

You have no idea what Super Sentai is? [GASP. Normal.]

[lookstairs]

Can't say that I do.

[grandest_delusion]

[Normal people, hissssss!] You've never been to Japan? Akibahara perhaps?

[lookstairs]

I've never been outside of the US, actually.

[grandest_delusion]

You're missing out on some of the greatest stuff then.

[lookstairs]

Unfortunately, world travel is not within my current budget. I was hoping that might change soon...but it's not looking too good right now.

[grandest_delusion]

You could always try downloads? For shows at least.

[lookstairs]

Sure. Maybe once I get back to civilization.

[And stop Ian from stealing the Declaration of Independence, but hey.]

[grandest_delusion]

That works. Good luck then!

[lookstairs]

Right. Thanks.

Nothing I like more than hanging out in the frozen arctic.
