Shard 004 // Accidental Video
[The feed flickers on to show a crackling fire. A lone cricket chirps in the distance. It seems the PCD is set on top of a pack of some sort. A stringer of small, strangely assorted fish is sizzling near the fire.
After a moment, the person in the feed pulls off their gloves with a sigh and holds out their fine-boned, but calloused hands towards the fire.
The flames leap and dance, disorganized at first, but then slowly burn and spin in rotating designs, burning hotter or colder to form different colors in the air. The smoke curls in leafy designs, sparks suspend in the air like small fireflies hovering.
The entire array ends up looking like a field of flowers. Whoever is controlling it closes their hands, and the flames poof away into smoke, sending a shower of sizzling embers into the dirt, where they promptly go out.]
Dinner and a show.
[The voice is female, soft, thoughtful.]
The children would have liked that one.
