But it will improve, won't it? Thanks to me.

We'll need snacks.

[fromfire]

Thanks to you, it will.

Well, naturally.

[maellum]

You're welcome.

I can be in charge of snacks while you decide what movie.

[Spoilers: it's all sugar.]

[fromfire]

All right, then.

And when should we do it?

[maellum]

Did they give you a job, here? I have nothing to do. So you can tell me when you're available.

[fromfire]

Piano player in a bar. That my "brother" owns. So, I feel like I can make my own hours.

Which means we should do it right away before we're force to really buckle down for this mission of ours.

[maellum]

How about right now? Since you have enough time to be messaging me and all.

[fromfire]

All right. Sounds good to me.

[maellum]

It just means you have to pick what we're watching right now, too.

[fromfire]

Which means we're going by title and looks alone.

[maellum]

... I bet you would have done that anyway, even with more time.

[fromfire]

Well, now we'll never know.

[maellum]

I know.

[fromfire]

All right. You know.

[maellum]

Are you getting me or am I meeting you somewhere?

[fromfire]

I can come get you. I have a car.

And yes, I know how to drive it. Maybe even better than Sciel.

[maellum]

I'll be the judge of that!

[fromfire]

Well, you will be.

[maellum]

Did you know it's the law that you wear a seatbelt?

1/2

[fromfire]

[fromfire]

Yeah, of course.

[maellum]

It might actually be easier for you to pick me up by the park. I'll send you the address.

[... less cars. And less chance Gustave will see.]

[fromfire]

All right, all right.

[maellum]

[Address!]

I can't wait.

lights, camera, action.

Vroom - vroom. A simple four-door black car.

Verso can't say that he's horrible at driving. He would say that he's out of practice and also mediocre at best. Although, the tickets that are piling up in his glove box might beg to differ (and those are the tickets that his charm and smiles weren't able to allow him to escape with a warning).

But as he thinks on these things, he comes to a conclusion. Huh. I might be a bad driver.

A casual thought that he has as he arrives at the destination (thanks GPS). And the car skids along the curb, but at least it doesn't pop up onto the curb. Progress! Somehow, he found that he had an easier time explaining how to drive to someone than driving himself. He feels that's a little unfair, but he isn't sure who to bring his complaint to - so he lodges it with no one.

"Still looking forward to the movie?"

It's what he casually calls as he steps out of the car to wave to her.
