"That goes there, the blue wire connects here..." Matt had the tendency to talk to himself while he worked, though the words came out muffled from the cigarette held in his lips. He didn't even bother to glance at the citizens milling about; after all, if they hadn't batted an eyelash when he pulled the mass of wires and packets from the bag, he doubted they'd pay attention to him now.
Sticking one last piece of tape down to secure the entire mess to the fountain's edge, he stepped back to give his handiwork a scrutinizing glance. There didn't seem to be anything wrong, so... Leaning forward, he gave the activation a hard job, starting the countdown, the timer clicking its way silently towards zero. A smug grin on his face, he abandoned the roll of tape and the empty shopping bag (they'd be blown to dust in a few moments anyway) and sauntered his way back towards their meeting spot, breathing out smoke rings.
Ever since he'd started making the habit of blowing things up in video games, he'd wanted to try it in real life at least once. It better be good.
