Chateau Grief 90

Xander: More popcorn?

Kore: Thank you.

Grant: Eugene you haven't had a good idea like this in months.

Thought(Kore): No napkins?

Thought(Xander): Hands like a gorilla...

Grant: It would make more sense to do this on the 4th of July...rather than the 21st of December.

Xander: No.

Grant: What could it hurt to celebrate a few holidays?

Xander: Well, if you celebrate one, to be fair you have to celebrate them all, and then some people wouldn't want to. And to keep the rest of them happy, then you'd need to force them.

Xander: While National Talk Like a Pirate Day has it's charms...any mention of Halloween and the DARPA activists...

Kore: DARPA?

Xander...start foaming at the mouth.

Grant: Dentists Advocating Reasonable Parental Accountability.

Xander: Then the Satanists will want virgin sacrifices for Beltane...and it's all downhill from there.

Telepathy(Kore): Ok, ok. I get it, Ves.

Telepathy(Kore): I have a plan, if you'll play along...

Grant: You just enjoy being hated. I exempted Kore's work group for the rest of the week in exchange for giving us this show. In thy name, of course, they send their thanks.

Grant: Gregory Campbell's mother? -- the one in the overalls? -- World-class arsonist. I was horrified.

Xander: You have no idea. She's even scaring me.

Xander: Who knew you could make this much gunpowder in two hours.

Kore: Do I need to point out that you know exactly how many of your freaks are capable of such a thing?

Telepathy(Xander): I've been helping her, actually. Is that why you're shaking with fear?

Telepathy(Kore): Then why not tell Grant? Does it play badly against your 'irresponsible tyrant' image? And why show the truth to me? When you work so hard at being a grinch?

Xander: Because...

Xander: If you want to hold a pizza party outdoors on a windy ocean island, in the middle of winter...

Grant: Eugene! What are you doing?

Xander: I've got a superpower that I'm sure you can appreciate.

Author Notes:

Fireworks!  I actually did a physical simulation of exploding stuff in my 3d program Blender and boom!  fireworks!  I figured this would be useful for later in the story when all kinds of stone and glass and metal and stuff starts getting shattered... but I'm getting ahead of myself.  Every week seems like a new technical challenge.  Happy New Year!,
