[It's a Firo! Looking positively blown away with delight at something. He's dressed up in a dark suit and overcoat with a brand new black hat, which he is currently hanging onto, and his hair is sticking up in about ten different directions.]

They finished it! And it's--damn, it's keen. Can see forever from up there! The whole city's gone wild. It's... It's... something!

Hey! [ She pushes the hat back up again. ] I think I... will! [ And she takes off running, still wearing his hat! ]

[FFFF HEY THAT'S BRAND NEW. So he sheds his coat and goes running after her, all the way to Ammy's garden.] Come on, Angy!

[ Angela runs through the garden, hiding behind trees and bushes when she can, all the while holding the hat to her head. ] Nope, it's mine now!

[He goes around the other way, sneaks up on her as she's looking back... and tackles her. And then falls into Amaterasu's stream.]

[ And there goes the hat, floating off down the stream. Angela scrambles to go get it, but she's kind of face down in the stream and has Firo on top of her, making things a little difficult. ]

[NOT AS PLANNED. He sort of shoves himself off of her, trying not to push her any deeper into the water in the process, and splashes into the middle of the stream on his butt.]

[ Scramble scramble grab, and she pulls the hat out of the water. ] Ah, it's all wet...

[ Then she looks over at him... and starts giggling. ]

[Wriggles a finger in his ear.] What?

I wasn't exactly expecting to go for a swim.

Me either. [Gives the garden a considering look.] S' a nice place, though.

I think it's Amaterasu's. [ Evil little grin, and she splashes him. ]

Yeah? She's that good with pla--[SNRG, water up nose. Coughing.] Hey! I can't splash a lady!

I thought you called me a dame, not a lady. [ Splash splash splash! ]

[Well fine, if you're going to be like that! He sheds his suit jacket on the shore and sloshes in, cupping his hands and sending big sloshes of water at her.]

[ Angela squeaks and covers her face with her arms, then kicks water at him, still giggling. ]

[And Firo slips and falls on his ass.] Ow.

[ Cue Angela flopping onto her back in the water in a fit of giggles. ]

[Too dignified to rub his butt.] Glad you're tickled. [Sudden curiosity. He scrambles upright.] Hey--what's that?

[Point! And it's one of Cy's little ghostly electric butterflies, hovering above some ferns.] Damn. Did Amaterasu make those too?

[ Angela starts standing up, attempting to dry herself off. She wrings the pretty-much-pointless coattails on her outfit, and glances up to where he's pointing. ]

I don't think so. I've never seen her make them, anyway.

[He slips his way out of the water and over to where the butterfly is.] Wow--there's more, come and see! [Firo reaches out to touch it--and feels a sharp shock flash up his arm as it bursts in green light.]

Ow! [A bit surprised at that--but look, a few feet away, another one has blinked into existence.] Huh. It shocked me.

[ Angela comes over, making a face as the butterfly shocks him. ] Careful, water and lightning don't mix well. [ Have a little arm rub, Firo. ]

They look like something you'd find in Diorre.

[Watches them, sort of hypnotized.] Diorre? Is that where the glowing forest place is? Lamplighter Woods?

[ She nods. ] Diorre is the city of the elves. It's inside the Lampflower Forest. My friend Carlie's father was from there.

[He sits down on the grass, then flops onto his back and stares up at the stars.]

She's not, though?

[ She shakes her head. ] Her parents were cast out, since her mother was human. They moved to Wendel, but died when Carlie was a baby. She was taken in by the church there.

[ Angela sits down next to him ] I'm the only one of us with a living parent.
