Foudroyant

There was about a week to go until July 4th, or as Marlow so accurately put it, Fireworks Day! Martin loved fireworks, even moreso ever since he figured out how to make his own with magic years ago. So tonight he sat on the roof of the Thunderbolts HQ ready to do a test run. The city of Boston would get an unscheduled fireworks show. City officials could be confused as they wanted, but he wasn't actually using real fireworks, just making the effects using magic. Plus, the bang they let off was part of the experience. He also had some new ones he wanted to try.

It might be a little hard to sleep at the TBolts HQ if your room wasn't soundproofed tonight. But Martin was determined to put on a great show.

	Martin sighed and shook his head again. "I asked Dr. Strange. And besides, that's saying you're a big superhero. You said you weren't," he pointed out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No one really admits to being a superhero or even a hero. We see it as doing what needs to be done. Strange is a hero, just like Cap and Thor and the other Avengers. Like all of us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Hero and Superhero aren't the same though. They're very different. And Dr. Strange is Sorcerer Supreme. That's greater than all of that," he nodded earnestly. "Superheroes have other things to worry about, but he helps if they come and ask or if there's something really big. But he doesn't patrol and fight crime usually. He has a lot of magic issues to deal with, he doesn't have too time for superheroing or that stuff." Having clarified that, Martin turned back around to send up the next fireworks and build up for the finale.

When he said Lord of the Rings inspired , he'd apparently meant re-enacting the dragon firework at the beginning. Because the roaring gold and red beast swooping through the night skies really did look like a massive dragon flying over Boston. But it was clearly part of tonight's firework show still. It flew low, swooping just over buildings, before roaring once more and flying up into the sky where it made the biggest explosion of the night. It left a great shining eye behind with a red and blue backdrop. Very clearly the Eye of Agamotto to any in the know.

It was Martin, of course he'd leave Dr. Strange's to the very last with the massive finale of extra fireworks behind it.

	Anya just sighed. She knew Martin worshiped Strange and didn't know why she bothered. "Very nice!" she beamed when he was done. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He had a plethora of reasons to. And while he understood why people would want to file Dr. Strange with themselves under superhero, he couldn't agree with it. He also had very clear distinctions of 'Superhero' and everything else. That others didn't see this distinction struck him as odd, but he simply put it down to the superhero mindset and lack of magic.

He beamed and took off his hat in a swoop and bowed low. The artist finishing his performance.

"It'll be even better on the 4th! You'll see! And I'll start it off with the Thunderbolts one so it'll be like: 'Made/Sponsored by the Thunderbolts'! And then maybe it'll be more okay that we sorta ended up breaking some stuff when we were attacked last time."

	"I can't wait to see it!" Anya said. "It's going to be the best 4th ever!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That was a great compliment in his eyes, and Martin nearly bounced in excitement. "It will be! I promise! Everyone will be jealous of our awesome show!" "Do we have any plans for the day of it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not really," Anya said. "I suppose we can have a cookout and then watch the fireworks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-07-03 12:49 am UTC (link)
	"That sounds fun," he smiled. "Who'll be cooking though?" These were important considerations. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2013-07-03 12:57 am UTC (link)
	"Don't worry, not me." Though Anya could handle a grill. "It'll be catered." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Honestly he'd sort of wanted to see her cook just to see it for himself. But if they wanted to eat maybe it'd be better. "Oh, okay! I'm looking forward to it," he grinned. It was near the top of his 'favourite holidays' list. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am too," she said. It's a day off and she really needed one at this point. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-07-03 01:26 am UTC (link)
	"Thanks for coming to watch and feedback," he smiled at her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anyastark 2013-07-03 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	"It was entirely my pleasure. Thank you for the show." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	magic_hands 2013-07-03 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	"No problem!" With that, he tipped his hat to her then teleported away, off to dive back into his spellbook for more firework-related things. (Reply to this)(Parent)
