23 Joke - There's a Gag Here Somewhere, I Swear.

[xochipilli_cursed]

[[Aaron is in a good mood and has finished one of his projects.

It's a go kart! The metal frame looks a bit stockier than you'd except with most go karts but the engine built by Dist can handle it. It even has a passenger seat.

Anyone who would think to can notice there is a secondary exhaust which seems to not be used at the moment. It's probably nothing though, right?

Aaron decides to take his new toy out on the town!]]


A) [Action | Anywhere there is a road]

[[Aaron is zipping down the roads, not caring which street he ends up on. If he recognizes you, or if you wave, he might even pull over.

He can be found anywhere in town.]]


B) [Action | 1451 Mitchell Road]

[[He's going to pull into the driveway at Mitchell.

Turning it off and knocking on the door. Hoping miss_enma_ai is home.]]


C) [Action | 1251 Williams Road]

[[inababanchou has been doing a lot for Aaron, so guess who is going to get a chance to test drive the go kart as well?

After Aaron has had his fun,he's going to be trying to get Souji out to have a try.]]


D) [Action | Your home]

[[Are you a friend of his? Has he had a friendly conversation with you at least once? Maybe you were his date to the Prom?

Well, he's swinging by to check on you as well. Also, he wants to show off his toy. He's proud he put it together.]]

Well, that's all you have to worry about.

There's gas, maintenance and a few other small things which you'll never have to deal with.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

It still seems excessive. ...Are there methods of transport here that purely work from mechanical force?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Well, technically...

[[She's not from his world so it's a moot point. Might as well stick to something simple.]]

Actually, if you mean just self powered, there are bikes.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

Yes. What are "bikes" like, and how do they work?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

You power them by pushing with your feet. The pedals you push on go around a circle which turns a chain that is hooked to a gear that is hooked to the tire.

Basically, you push the pedal, the wheel turns and you go forward.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

[Nod. She actually got all of that.]

Understood. Where can they be bought?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

If you don't have one at your home, check the general store or hardware store.

It takes some practice to balance but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

If I ask, would a drone mother know?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Maybe... you might want to try the father though. I think that'd be more his thing here.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

The "father" is from a world comparable to mine. It's nothing like this place.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Oooh.... yeah. Umm... then I guess I could show you how to do that too.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

[...]

Do you really have the time for that?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Well, not a ton of time but an hour every other day won't kill me.

Once you get the balance you'll be able to do it yourself though.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

[Blandly.] Don't offer if you have more important things to do.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Actually, I don't have more important things to do.

I am kind of unsure what I should be doing next, the company might actually be good.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

. . .

Alright. When can you show me what a bike is like, and how it works?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

How about after school tomorrow? Before work.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

Directly after?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Sure.

If you have time that is.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

I do. I'll come with you after classes end.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a plan.

So, what did you use to do back home? You mentioned you didn't have anything like bikes but you know wagons.

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

I'm a mercenary. Wagons and such were used to carry supplies when we travel.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Like, paid to fight wars?

[crimson-flashed.livejournal.com]

It doesn't necessarily have to be wars, but I am paid for my sword.
