007 | Dictated/Action

[hellofist]

Is there, uh... place to drive fast, here? A track, something like that? Or even just... long, slightly flat dirt road? Got motorcycle, for Christmas.

[And she sounds so, so very excited about it. Finally, something to do to get the adrenaline flowing that she can do any time at all.]

Can give rides, too. Or driving lessons. Just wish up helmet, then meet outside.

[For anyone who does happen to come out to see her new toy, Cass is leaning up against her bike and looking quite pleased with herself. Best present ever.]

Comments

[raleighs]

Nice ride.

[hellofist]

I know.

[Look at that cocky grin, Raleigh. She's just so happy right now.]

Get anything good? You got here... just in time, right?

[raleighs]

You mean the bag of candy at the foot of my bed?

Yours is better.

[hellofist]

Candy's not so bad. I'll share, if you do.

[raleighs]

Deal.

[hellofist]

[She's already wished up a second helmet just in case, so she picks it up off the motorcycle and tosses it over to him.]

I'm driving, though.

[gottaknockhard]

[She really knows just what to say to get him to pipe up.]

Someone must like you.

dictated;

[hellofist]

[That's what happens when you have cheaty body language reading powers, you know.]

Maybe. Or, just very lucky. Feel like a race?

[raleighs]

[HELMETS ARE FOR CHICKENS. But he's not that stupid so he puts it on.]

I bet I could do better.

[hellofist]

[Her goes on next and then she mounts the bike, pats the seat behind her.]

We'll see. Would rather not... let it be wrecked, first time out.

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

[That does sound like a nice way to blow off everything he's been dealing with lately. She probably means with the car though, which is the one thing he should be making an effort to keep in perfect shape for the rest of time.

...]

Is there a prize for the winner?

dictated;

[hellofist]

[Hmm...]

If you win, will walk Ein... for whole week.

[raleighs]

It's gotta be easier than a Jaeger.

[But he's really not the kind of guy to make her give up her Christmas present so he can go first. So he climbs on after her.]

[hellofist]

[She watches him as he gets on, frowning faintly.]

A what?

[raleighs]

A giant robot.

[Raleigh's getting the vibe that she'd love a Jaeger if she ever saw one. She's got that adrenaline junkie feel to her and he gets that.]

More or less.

action;

[dgaf]

[ Effy is huddled by the steps leading to the castle entrance in her oversized parka and unkempt hair when she notices the girl with the bike, whistling in appreciation. Someone got an awesome present. ]

Sweet.

Dictated forever

[onlyanapple]

No real roads here. You just have to make do as best you can.

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

That's really more of a prize for Ein.

[Like he's going to imply that he walks him...]</small.

[hellofist]

[That's kind of a let down, but oh well. Maybe she'll just have to focus on getting her thrills from jumping hills or something.]

Sort of figured... that might be. In nine months, only seen one car. Not exactly... most common thing, here.

dictated;

[hellofist]

[You would have to go and make this difficult.]

You pick, then. What do you want?

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

[He sort of thought it'd be obvious.]

To take it out for a spin.

foreverrrr

[hellofist]

[And of course Cass grins at once because she agrees completely. She's starting to think that maybe this is the castle making up for dropping an apartment on her and letting an alien chew up her arm.]

Want to ride it?

[hellofist]

[Okay wait hold on back up.]

Giant robot? You... drive one of those?

dictated;

[hellofist]

[That's not much of a prize when she'd probably have let him do it anyway, but she's not about to argue him into picking something different.]

And if I win?

dictated;

[gottaknockhard]

[Nobody ever does something nice for free, don't talk crazy.]

Still interested in Ein?
