Remember Remember the 5th of November

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Deep inside one of the various rooms of the Nexus is an Ocelot. This room might be somewhat familiar to certain members of the building, but to those without realization of the location would be greeted by a pleasant Eastern European environment. Beautiful cityscape, quaint stores and coffee shops, and a dark sky with a bright moon overhead. The night life of this particular city was indeed a breathtaking sight to witness. Lamps illuminated the scope of the location above as though softening the features of the luxirious surroundings. Usually, it was fairly quiet at this time, but there happened to be a lot of bustling of faceless bodies surrounding the streets and out by the water.]

[There was a chill in the air that night and the smell of gunpowder lingered in faint wisps. The aftermath of Halloween encouraged a more subtle evening ahead for the 5th of November celebrations. It wouldn't be long before the fireworks set off.]

[Ocelot was sat outside a café of a street corner. He leaned his arm on the small round table before him, a thick cigar held securely between gloved fingers. He could feel winter creeping up and decided to adorn his coat. The memories of this place, it was where he had been pulled from in his world. So much had happened by being in this world, this Nexus, it almost seemed an inevitability that he would never return home.]

[But no matter how many times he fought with that debate in his mind, he found himself not caring about the slim chances of returning to 2014. His life was perfect here. This was his home.]

[As that thought passed him, a bright pink flash of light sparked in the night sky. Ocelot smirked and raised his cup of hot chocolate to his lips, sipping the substance calmly.]


_{((ooc: Bonfire Night! Come and enjoy the sights, sounds and smells. There's plenty of stores open due to the event and open stalls with hot food ready to serve. You can go anywhere you like. Just don't fall in the water if you want to get a really good view of the fireworks.))}

Stop trying to be my main character, Ocelot |:

[Adam will not be falling into the water. : | He will however get him some food. It's a nice place, he imagined that John would probably like it if not for the scenery for the food. Not that Ocelot was thinking stupid thoughts about bringing the man here. Rivals didn't do things like that together. But still. He sits near the water, taunting it by leaning on the border between land and you know, horrible disgusting water. : /] Not bad. This place has its good features too.

[Adamska eyes his younger counterpart sternly. If he planned on striking up trouble, he would intervene where possible.]

[For now, he gives him the benefit of the doubt and simply acknowledges him with a subtle nod of his head.]

[manwithaname.livejournal.com]

[Trouble? Who causes trouble? And who is that old guy that looks a lot like him and has a mustache just like his? ...Must just be his imagination. Adam will just go back to eating though he's keeping his eye on this old man. No one ever said he wasn't rude.]

[Ah, a city... What a welcomed change.]

[It's quite apparent that this EVA has been walking around for several hours now; as she can now be seen carrying quite a few shopping bags over to the motorbike that she has parked off to the side of the road.]

[Though the woman is enjoying some time to spoil herself, she wouldn't mind some company from whoever would be willing to offer theirs.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Ocelot spots the female down by the road, and more specifically, the motorbike. A smile finds his lips as he leans forward to watch his busy young friend, taking note of the bags.]

[He decides to greet her by pushing up from his table and casually strides towards EVA in confidence. He seems genuinely pleased to see her.]

Good evening.

[let-mama.livejournal.com]

[She pauses in her actions; a few bags still in her arms]

Adam?

[Oh boy.] ...Look... [The woman furrows her brow] ...If this is about the other day... I apologize...

[She doesn't know that this is a different Ocelot than the one she argued with before]

[Fury took in a deep breath and let it out slowly, a rare smile gracing his lips. The city before his view was a true illusion but it didn't seem to bother the cobra as he walked along the beach shore. Taking a long drag from his cigarette, he stopped a moment to take in the clear night sky...]

Huh... needs a little color.

[Bending down, he removes the cigarette from his lips and touches the lighted end of the stick against a thin string. It suddenly flared up and the fuse started to burn as Fury backed away from the miniature rockets all lined up in a row.]

... 3 ... 2 ... 1.

[Fuses burned through and the rockets shot from the ground, ascending into the air. Seconds later, the sky was decorated in a brilliant display of color (http://www.niagaraparks.com/images/Niagara-Falls-Fireworks%20%282%29.jpg).

[Ocelot's eyes widen at the sight of the explosions above. His eyes glint at the beautiful sights and lights that illuminated the sky above. It truly was a sight to behold.]

Hmh~

[He hummed through his nose in appreciation and took another puff of his cigar.]

[son-of-hellfire.livejournal.com]

Enjoying the view?

[Fury doesn't turn from his spot as he kept steel-gray eyes on the sky. Other pyro-fanatics a couple yards away from him were shooting off their own fireworks to dazzle the watching patrons of the city.

Soon the whole sky would be set ablaze.]

[carrioncannon.livejournal.com]

[falls into the water]

[The splash is large.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Ocelot clicks his tongue.]

_{There is always one.}

[sofuckingfunny.livejournal.com]

Hahehahehahah...

[Laughing Octopus is clinging to a nearby light post, watching the fireworks burst in the sky. Her laughter becomes more apparent which each explosion.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[That laugh was certainly reminiscent. Ocelot turns his head to watch the female by the post. He raises a silver brow but makes no move to hush the Beauty.]

[sofuckingfunny.livejournal.com]

[Laughs louder, tentacles wriggling about.]

It's all so funny!

[It had been all too long since Fox had found himself on a true street. His Nexus life had devolved into a steady routine, finding himself returning to them same places day in and day out. To deviate from this something he'd never truly considered but something he found himself not regretting tonight. With the faint scent of gunpowder in the air and the fireworks beginning to light up the sky, Fox pauses outside of a cafe to zip his jacket up a little higher and draw in a deep breath, savouring the moment around him.]

[He'd never truly taken to celebrating holidays. There were some he'd celebrate for Naomi's sake when they lived in America, such as Halloween and Christmas, but the bonfire night and Guy Fawkes Day were celebrations he never really got into. As he enjoys the evening now though, he almost wishes he'd spent longer living in Great Britain years ago.]

[...Perhaps burning an effigy of Ocelot was in order.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Ocelot purses his lips around the cigar in his mouth. He inhales the smokey substance and exhales within a matter of moments. Despite the thick air of gunpowder surrounding him, he can smell Fox's presence. Like a poison tickling the back of his nose.]

[He plucks the cigar from his lips and raises his head to stare at the opposing soldier. Fox had a way of putting the old cat on edge. It was as though he could sense what the brat was thinking.]

[zanzibarasshole.livejournal.com]

[Despite the man's relaxed demeanor, he'd taken notice of the cat smoking nearby. The scent of the cigar is unmistakable - he knows the brand all too well. He idly turns his head, an eyebrow cocked as he watches Ocelot through a glass blue eye.]

I see I'm not the only one on the prowl tonight.

[Solidus watches the fireworks show in awe, his cotton candy forgotten as he stares in wide-eyed wonder.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Ocelot snatches a piece of that cotton candy~]

[worldpresident.livejournal.com]

[Solidus jumps, the sudden movement so near startling him.]

Hey!

[He looks suspiciously at the Ocelot. He thinks the man's an Ocelot, anyway. They look alike even if this one has a third dimension is older.]

What did you just do?

[old-papa-john.livejournal.com]

_{...This is nice.}

[The old man glances up at the sky.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Adam perks up at hearing John's voice. He looks towards him casually.]

I didn't expect for you to show here tonight.

[old-papa-john.livejournal.com]

You didn't?

[He paces up beside Adam.]

Why's that...?

[imthe-shit.livejournal.com]

[Being in Eastern Europe suddenly pings something inside him. Snake looks around for Big Mama, his hands opening and closing... Just being here makes him feel like he should be keeping her safe.]


Hhn...

[The sudden explosions in the sky catch him off guard and he dives for cover, before realizing fireworks were going off.] Hn? [Slowly he stands, looking around. Right, this is still the Nexus... Looks like weird crap was still happening.]

[systemismine.livejournal.com]

[Ocelot snorts loudly at Snake jumping and bounding around like a fool.]

Bonfire Night. The fireworks are tradition. Don't ask me who's in charge of the display. I have nothing to do with it.

[He stubs out the remainder of his cigar.]
