[Zelda's handled the holidays with grace, gotten her gift from deck 13, thanks to Remy and Gideon, and she's on the top deck, enjoying the fireworks. Festive things, they are, and quite beautiful to boot. She's very happy to have anyone with her.How lovely. I feel the pressure upon my heart lessening

... What is going on?

[Clearly, someone has not heard anything about these fireworks.]

[oblique_wisdom]

I would imagine it is a celebratory sequence. That is generally what the sparks in the sky represent.

[Zelda's not entirely foreign to the idea of fireworks. It just may not be referred to that back in Hyrule. It certainly is like magic, though.]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Sparks in the...

[A pause. And then he practically sounds giddy.]

Hah! Explosives! Celebratory explosives! Finally! This boat does something right! Where are they?

[oblique_wisdom]

[Oh... He's happy, right? Is that possible?]

They are on the top deck. Right above the ship. You like those sorts of things?

[destinedtorule]

You sound content.

[He can hear the background noise.]

Enjoying the show, I presume.

[oblique_wisdom]

Oh... Well, yes. I am, a bit, I suppose.

You should come take a look when you get the opportunity.

[destinedtorule]

I'll pass, Princess.

[oblique_wisdom]

That is unlike you.

[Something's wrong. She wonders what.]

[meantthecar]

[Uh oh. Keira likes you, Zelda, that sounds suspiciously like you're making moves on 'her' man. Keira gets jealous so easily...]

Jak brought you.... flowers?

[oblique_wisdom]

[There's a flushing on this end. Zelda doesn't really openly talk about various things she and Jak do together. She doesn't really openly talk about Jak at all, period.]

Well... It... We... No. I cannot say that he really has done quite that. He once gave me flowers because his room became filled with them, but it is not as though we travel through the field together and pick them or anything.

[The thought sure is silly, though.]

[meantthecar]

[Nice save, Zelda! She's still suspicious though.]

His room was filled with them? And.. he just went around handing them out to people?

[oblique_wisdom]

[She's not really trying to hide anything... Right? Most of the ship knows about it anyway. Kage said it was easy to see all the way from space, whatever that may mean.]

It was a bit of an odd situation, really. I told him I wanted the flowers, because I know well enough those are really not his... forte, and he gave them to me. Although it would not surprise me much if I were to ask for them that he would obtain them.

[shadesofeco]

I think I can do that.

[oblique_wisdom]

I would like that very much.
