To all of you from post-1776 America, happy Fourth of July. [Thoughtful pause.] Well, I suppose it's the fourth of July for everyone else too... I hope you're all having a nice day.

Um. [A throat-clearing, a clanking of metal.] If anyone is interested in current events from - October 9, 2006... I found a newspaper.

[Long pause.] I'm not the only one - seeing things, am I? I thought I was just hallucinating, but the newspaper seems pretty real...

What, personally? Not much, I'm afraid.

Okay. So what's the fourth of July then?

[He has to be sick of hearing this question by now. xD]

[i_speak_softly]

Well, it's the holiday when the people of the country I live in celebrate their political independence. But freedom isn't a thing I'll ever really have, so - I just go for the spectacle.

So do they have fireworks too? You should've said something! I could've postponed them by a few days you know!

[i_speak_softly]

Oh, those were your fireworks? That explains the strange choice of date.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

I don't need special occasions for fireworks!

[i_speak_softly]

I like your outlook, Selphie.

The fireworks were very good, by the way.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

I think this place could use some more of it.

Thanks!

[i_speak_softly]

Stay positive, Selphie. Someone has to.

I'll most certainly do my best!
