[Anders is sitting in a break room of sorts, and he's wearing green medical scrubs. He also looks a bit annoyed at the moment.]

To anyone who wants to use fireworks in the near future, please be cautious with them. This means please do not light them near or on your body, do not fire them at anyone, and for the Maker's sake, do not use them while intoxicated.

Thank you.

He lit it on fire by shooting fireworks out of his ass.

[lootsnshoots]

By the Light are you serious? Because that's incredible.

[rebelhealer]

He claimed he did it for a viral video.

[He has only the vaguest idea of what it means when a video is 'viral'.]

[lootsnshoots]

How reckless, pointless, and stupid.

I gotta respect that.

[rebelhealer]

Even if it results in getting hurt?

[lootsnshoots]

It's dedication to a cause, friend. Gotta respect that.

[rebelhealer]

Even if that cause is fifteen minutes of fame that you ultimately come to regret?

[lootsnshoots]

Yeah. 'Coz we all got a good story out of it. And hey, any story you can walk away from is a good one, I say.

[A small pause.]

The ones you don't, too.

[rebelhealer]

Depends on what story you end up telling. Or leaving behind.

[lootsnshoots]

That's the big question, isn't it? How do you lead a life that leaves behind a story worth telling?

See, lookit that. I'm talking deep existential stuff because a man blew up his butt.

[rebelhealer]

Please do not follow his example.

[lootsnshoots]

[He laughs.]

Oh no worries about that, my friend. I have higher standards when it comes to hurtin' myself in explosions.

[rebelhealer]

Not the first time I've heard that claim.

[lootsnshoots]

Listen, nine—okay, more like seventy percent of the times I've exploded it's been for the good of Humanity.
