[ with a heavy sigh, as they watch nier's life leave, kon gives alphinaud's shoulder a squeeze and starts to disengage from him. there's blood - because there always is, but they're usually better prepared for that - and so much for them to have to deal with. ]
Yeah, we're off schedule. [ and for as flexible as he is, this is sloppy. damn. ] I got some gas going in the kitchen if we just want to call it a wash. Accidents happen every day at barbeques, a lot of unsupervised kids and bumping into things in kitchens and at the grill.
Nier's dead, and in the distance they can hear the sound of the barbecue and all of the remaining guests. At the very least, if they want a getaway without going through the backyard, they can leave through the front. Kon is right, the gas is still on.
[There's always blood, but he's never particularly minded that sort of thing. Sometimes keeping the family safe gets messy, it's a small price to pay for their safety.
He's strong enough to drag the body into the hole and dump it. No problems, no help needed.]
[Manwol looks annoyed because she got all dressed up for this barbecue and they made plans, but Alphinaud is already leaving and Bradley's just disposed of Nier so very efficiently and Kon's plan is the best one they have.
They don't have to dig or dismember or find any cheeky hiding places if they can just burn it all to the ground, right?]
...Fine. [...this feels so familiar. she's done this before... but back then, she had been alone.
oh right, she had a dream about it.] Let's go. We can set it as we leave.
If you want to go back to the party, clean up the blood that's on you, you can probably milk a few more minutes out of it.
[ but the way he says it, kon doesn't really think it's a great idea. they might live next door, but even that's further away from what could be a blast zone, depending. the spread of the gas, the gas line itself... what aerosol cans are around, if they have acrylic paint on anything, the cleaning products.
as they start heading down, him bringing up the rear, he reaches into his pocket and pulls out the lighter - and the phone.
... the phone is brought up again. is it still on call? ]
[ as he stands in the open doorway, letting them get out and back towards home before he does anything, he stares down at the phone.
wasn't he texting toki? hopefully he actually listened to him and didn't show up - kon's not going to go check. instead, he hangs up and pockets the phone, before igniting the lighter.
nothing fancy. he gives it a toss into the house and shuts the door, heading home. ]
[ They all go back home as the neighbor's house burns.
It's funny. No one really questions where they went, because a lot of the guests ran away, so it's safe to assume that those four did as well. Sadly, not everyone made it. The blast got everyone who was close to the house, as well as anyone still inside. A part of the other house next to it also got hit.
Luckily, theirs is fine. Their house will always stand tall.

Put him with the other two. I'm returning home to wash off.
[ Looks like the front door it is. Y'all wanna set the place ablaze? Go for it. ]
