[As the journal opens it picks up the sound of a door shutting. She moves out of the room she'd been and down the hallway, starting an open dialog.]

You know, I never was big into all that zen, in with the good out with the bad crap, but if it would help me right now? I'd get one of those giant goldfish ponds and stare at the water.

[She holds the book in one hand, flexing her free hand at her side.]

I'm up for suggestions to work through this -- [Frustration. Upset. Anger. Take your pick.] -- whatever it is, because hitting something is pretty much my go-to thing and I'm not sure anyone wants to go a few rounds with me right now.


Steve ]

I know it's late and maybe you are dealing with your own shit, but if you want to go a few rounds, I'm probably gonna end up in the gym here in the castle.

[and she heads to the gym. as she puts her jacket on a bench, she goes back to the journal, a bit more calm.]

Reno ]

If you need alcohol because of those things taking it from the bar -- place I'm staying at had three bars in it. I've got plenty of backstock.

[She puts her journal away and centers the bag, moving to start taking out her aggression on the thing.]

[msattentionspan]

A little bit more effort, but I don't think it'd be fun to have you wandering around with a broken arm. [a beat] If you swing by the club here, I can help you bring it back to the bar. [She'll draw a rough map to the club.]

It's this one here.

[ontheclockpro]

Really wouldn't, even with healing magic it takes some time to heal.

Heh, I can be by there soon~

Reno ] [ action → forever

[msattentionspan]

I'll be here.

[she'll be moving crates of the stuff from the lower bar, since she didn't actually use this one.]

and ever!

[ontheclockpro]

[He meanwhile takes this time to commandeer a car from Tony's collection in the old Peace Patrol headquarters (so nice that they didn't change their access codes) and drive into the city to those directions. He'll pound on the door before calling out]

Faith?

[msattentionspan]

[She comes to the side door, since the front one is always gonna stay boarded up. She doesn't need one of the weird city people opting to just get ... a dance or something. She steps out and moves to the front.]

Hey. 'Round the side. I've got most of it crated up. [She spots the car, wondering how he got it through the narrower streets of the city.]

Must be a careful driver.

[ontheclockpro]

[he shrugs, smirking when he sees her]

Tch, this is nothing compare to the streets of Midgar. Narrow streets, traffic and the occasional monster. Keeps the rush hour interesting.

[msattentionspan]

Yeah? I haven't gotten a lot of driving in. [Sort of... not at all.]

[ontheclockpro]

Yeah? You know how?

[msattentionspan]

Not really.

[ontheclockpro]

Wanna learn sometime?

[msattentionspan]

[She shrugs.]

Sure. I probably should, the castle tends to put us in big cities.

[ontheclockpro]

Good thing for that, I get so sick of this boondocks life.

[He'll smirk and nod]

After we make the delivery then.

[msattentionspan]

[She lifts an eyebrow.]

Yeah? You're gonna teach me to drive?

[ontheclockpro]

Why not, right? It could be fun.

[msattentionspan]

You might change your mind about that. [Oh hey, here are some crates of booze for you.]

Let me help you with these. [Because she's stronger than you, dude.]

[ontheclockpro]

Nonsense. This isn't even my car, what's the worry?

[He snickers] If you insist.

[msattentionspan]

Whose car is it?

[ontheclockpro]

Tony Stark's?

Last time he was here, he left a whole car collection down in the old Peace Patrol headquarters. [He idly wonders if anyone has told the guy they are down there now that he's back...]

[msattentionspan]

Yeah? Huh. [Okay, time to load up the car with all this booze.]

[ontheclockpro]

Yep. [he nods and follows suit to start hauling dis stuff]

[msattentionspan]

[All dem crates.]

How long do you think it'll be before things are back to full stock?

[ontheclockpro]

I'm hoping for a week, at most...much more and it'll start getting to be a real pain.

[msattentionspan]

Yeah, well this'll help a bit. [and they are loaded. NOW, now, she grins over at him.]

Am I gonna drive now?
