*rb* What did you do, teleport there? Give me a chance to get in the damn car, Vico. You'll have to wait for like ten minutes, okay? *I sigh melodramatically into the radio. The gun proceedings took longer than I thought. Lucky for us that the border isn't that far away if I really floor it.*

*I laugh at her, then reply. *
*rb* It's not my fault your makeout session with Afterdoo lasted longer than anticipated. That /is/ what you're doing, right? I'll be ashamed of you if it's not.

*I almost throw the radio against the room in surprise. I regret my decision so much....*
*rb* You know, he can hear you. So can our students.

*rb* Can he? Excellent! *I raise my voice* Hello, there, Afterdoo! Are you enjoying yourself? I've got your leg-fixer-upper supplies and they're not all that easily explained, so I'm going to have to ask you to cut the love fest short before a friendly patrol pulls up next to me and starts asking questions.

*rb, hissing into the receiver* There was NOT a lovefest in any sense of the world, and I should techniclly consider myself lucky to be alive to answer you. But for now can you just shut up and let me get in a car?

Geez, shut me down before I even try. Harshing my mellow, here. *I chuckle. We get in the vehicle and start driving for a while. I keep my gaze on the horizon and look at a hill nearby. I mute the radio for a second.* leave me off here. I can keep you and Vico in my sights in case he tries anything. Pick me up on the way back.

((Okay, so they were driving.))
Alright. I'll only be a few minutes. If I punch him in the face, it'll probably be because he's irritating. *I lean out the window to breathe for a second. It's stifling inside the car.* Don't get too comfy. Don't burn yourself on the sand.

*I shade my eyes when I see a puff of dust on a distant bend of the highway, but it's too far away for any detail. I do hope it's Volume, though. I wasn't kidding about not being able to explain my load.*

I never burn. Just pull over here and go on. And be careful. Do this quick, we won't have a lot of time.

Of course. *I pull over, let Aftermath out, blow him a kiss and drive slowly enough to Vico that I don't spray up much sand. When I'm close enough, I point to the backseat.* There will be enough room for your stuff in the trunk. Should I be watching out for one patrol or two?

*I roll down my window and lean out* There's room for my stuff in /my/ trunk, too, you know. And I can guarantee this car gets better mileage than yours, and is much less likely to get pulled over.

I can guarantee that this car doesn't have a trace on it. You lead Dracs to us and we kill you. Would you rather live a bit longer or have us look at you that much more skeptically? *I point to the back seat again.* Get in, Vico. I'll have someone get your car later.

You lot are so paranoid... there's no reason for them to trace me. I haven't done anything worth noticing. *Volume doesn't look like she's about to change her mind, though, so I sigh dramatically and get my bags out of the back. When they're in the trunk I climb into the backseat; I'd have protested, but I'd bet my next paycheck that we're picking up Aftermath on the way back. He's probably staring at me through a scope right now.*
Just don't let anything happen to it, all right? That whole not-drawing-attention thing definitely applies to taking company vehicles into the Zones and losing them.

Don't worry. I doubt we'll crash it. We need cars out here as much as you do. Can't promise there won't be paint issues, though. *I shrug and drive back up the sand dune for Aftermath.*

*I stand up and dust myself off, waving Volume over.* Everything looks clear. Good news, Vico. You keep your head. I trust everything went less than awful?

Yes, I'm still running - sort of. But it is lonely out here. Haven't seen anyone else for a while.
