24th Resurrection - Tic Tic Boom

[Are you paying attention today, Mayfield? I hope so, or you might accidentally get blown up.

Theo's out on the town, holding an old and faded leather-bound book in one hand, and gesturing with the other. He has a flat expression while he mumbles some words in Greek, casting some spells. He's out today practicing some offensive magic spells, since Marisa was asking him with help on them the other day, he figures he should practice. He wasn't very strong with attack spells, but what else did he have to do in this boring town besides practice on things around town?

Mayfield, you're being treated to small explosions all over town. There's a rush of air and a spark, and things are goin' kaboom! Your car, your shrubs, lampposts, mail boxes, dog houses, whatever. But, his aim and his casting of such spells is a bit off... which might have to do with the fact that, as usual lately, he's a bit drunk.

What else has he got to do in all his boredom when half the people in town he used to talk to now avoid him like the plague, and one of the last people who did now seems droned permanently? It was weird enough having Shina's drone call him "Mr. Crawford", let alone seeing her acting so vapid and NOT drinking tea...

Want to stop him? Join in on the fun? He may not even acknowledge you, and really doesn't give a rat's ass if he gets droned.]

[As luck would have it? Tlachtga, out for one of her walks...again. Aside from all of the noise in recent hours, it seems pleasant enough out here.

Until that car she's drawing closer to suddenly explodes.

She's fortunate enough to not be close enough to actually get hurt, but the surprise leads to her suddenly jumping back and searching for the cause.]

[Oh hey look, it's not!husband. Not surprising, I bet. He hasn't seen you there, and wasn't really aiming for that car, but he's happy with that result anyway.

But he's getting really tired. He sits down on a nearby curb, lighting up yet another cigarette, and watches the burning car with a smirk.]

[She has to admit, the explosion was kind of impressive. Reckless, but impressive.

After being sure the newly-made fireball won't be exploding into a bigger fireball, the woman walks past it and will be headed right past Theo...a bit hurriedly, as well; she has a specific destination, rather than simply walking around, for once.]

[Theo sees her finally, and assumes she's blowing him off, since Kay's been pretty much doing the same thing lately. There's a "hmph" as you walk by, though.]

[Tlachtga knows better than to let someone think you're ignoring them if they're found to be capable of blowing you to little bitty pieces.

So to that? She stops.

You've got her attention if you wanted to do anything with it.]

[He gives you a tired look.]

I wasn't aiming for you, you know.

Notifs are being slow again. Gdit, LJ.

[Strangely enough, she feels inclined to believe that; she doesn't bother him much to begin with, so what reason would he even have to...?]

I suspected as much, Theo...but you may wish to put in an additional effort as to not accidentally strike people or objects you do not intend to...

[Whiny drunk mode is go]

Eh, doesn't matter. Anything you destroy just comes back the next day anyway.
