[And, suddenly -- fireworks. Bursting in the sky, near the lake, in a variety of colors, though they seem to stray more to green than most other colors, but the largest ones are red, orange, and bursts of yellow and white

... it's been quite some time since I've celebrated that holiday.

I haven't had time to transfigure an effigy of Guy Fawkes to burn, so I suppose an average bonfire will have to do.

[notamageiswear]

A bonfire should do nicely, I should think.

I've never actually taken part in a celebration, but most Gryffindors at Hogwarts look for any excuse to explode something.

[mister_hatter]

We should blow something up.

[nexmosnonlucror]

[Pause.]

What did you have in mind?

[mister_hatter]

I'm not sure yet. Let's brainstorm.

[Random acts of vandalism are so not his thing, Break. 8( He plans things, okay.]

Does anything actually need to be destroyed?

You must be British.

[nexmosnonlucror]

Did the accent give it away?

[Harmless teasing.]

[noworldlydreams]

Partially. [She gives him a faint smile.] I admit that I am not as well-versed in British history as I would like.

It is known as Guy Fawkes Day.

[Mildly.]

Commemorating the act of a Catholic revolutionary attempting to destroy Parliament in England.

[ She must have gasped at the fireworks. She had never seen anything like this, after all. But then ---

Morgana does balls better than most living individuals. ]

A ball???

[ She wonders what is there to celebrate but then again who really cares. ]

I'd be an honor.

[He switches on the video with half a smile, outwardly pleased.]

The honor is mine.

Is there something special that brought upon this celebration?

[nexmosnonlucror]

I believe it's an American thing. I've never heard of a 'prom'.

[ video ] Been meaning to throw him at Tom.

[ A contented sigh. ]

Ah, thank you for reminding me of that. The Gunpowder Plot may have happened almost one hundred and fifty years before my birth, but I had almost forgotten Guy Fawkes Day.

[ video ] :D

[nexmosnonlucror]

You celebrate the holiday?

[ video ]

[agodintheopen]

Not personally. I'm French.

Though it does instill quite a sense of nostalgia, from my trips to London.

[nexmosnonlucror]

Bonjour, monsieur.

[In smooth French, and his lip quirks into a slight smile.]

Did you enjoy your stay?
