Fireworks (Green) throws a Junimo across the night sky. The rocket is put down on the ground, waits a beat, then shoots up and scatters green sparks in the shape of one of the little forest spirits, washing the screen green as it goes. That shape ties it to the Community Center, so it is the rocket players save for the day the last bundle is filled and the Junimos leave. Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island sells it for one Qi Gem with no limit on quantity, and the prize counter in the Casino sells it for Qi Coins. Feeding one into the Sewing Machine produces the green Party Hat.
Overview
Price is the reason these are usually bought on the island rather than in the desert. A single Qi Gem is the cheapest tag in the Walnut Room, far below the twenty gems that the Deconstructor or a set of Enrichers costs, and gems arrive in bulk once spare Golden Walnuts can be traded two gems at a time. Nothing caps the stock there, so a display can be as long as the gem supply allows.
The Casino counter is the alternative, and it comes first in most saves because the desert opens long before the island. Coins are exchanged for gold at the machine by the door, and the counter sells these rockets near the bottom of its price list, alongside building materials and warp totems rather than among the expensive furniture. The shelf holds only a modest number at a time, so stocking up means several visits.
Setting one off takes a click on open ground. A short fuse burns, the rocket lifts, and the Junimo blooms overhead before fading out with the green tint on the screen. Lining several up in a row and lighting them in sequence is the usual way to make a show of it rather than a single pop.
The Junimo shape makes this colour the sentimental one for a save that took the Community Center route instead of Joja. The spirits themselves vanish once their work is done, and a green rocket is the closest thing the game offers to a thank-you note. It is also the only one of the rockets whose picture in the sky is drawn from the valley itself rather than from a plain shape.
Notes
At the dye pots in Emily and Haley's house on 2 Willow Lane the rocket acts as a green dye, and it does the same job in the Sewing Machine's feed when a dyeable garment is loaded there. Green dyes are otherwise mostly vegetables worth shipping, which makes a cheap rocket a reasonable substitute.
Nobody in the valley wants one as a present. Every villager treats the gift as a disliked one, so a rocket is best kept for the sky, for a hat or for the dye pot rather than wrapped up for a birthday.
