We have to pick up his car later, and I don't think we can keep it, but otherwise we're both alive and he didn't make me punch him this time. *I toss Vico my bandanna. He should know the drill by now.*

Everything went lovely, Afterdoo, and when I saw your face the sun shone a little bit brighter. Is this really necessary? *I dangle the bandanna between two fingers.* If I wanted a patrol to know where you were, I'd just hide a tracker on something. It really doesn't matter if I know where you are.

Vico, no matter how much you help, nothing will change the fact that you work for the people trying to hunt us. Just put the damned bandana on and we can get to our investigation, alright? *I climb into the back of the car and place my rifle beside me.* You're lucky, Vico. This is the most amount of time I've ever spent with a member of BLI who wasn't either dead or about to die.

Yes, yes, all right. *I tie on the bandanna and get into the backseat, sliding over so I'm behind Volume. The car is cramped, and I don't try to avoid having my knees pressed against the back of her seat* I think all this mistrust is just an expression of your inability to open up in relationships. Volume, has he ever expressly told you what he's looking for in a sexual partner, or do you get the impression he's uncomfortable discussing intimate matters?

*I laugh and butt in.* She's never brought up the subject. Completely denies it when it's a topic, really. I feel unwanted, to be honest. *I cross my arms and pretend to be hurt.* Do you not find me attractive, Volume? I mean, is that it?

I have half a mind to get out of this car and leave you here. *I can feel my face getting brighter red by the second.* It's not that, and Vico, the mistrust is something Killjoys do. Why shouldn't we? Anyone might be a BLI mole and sweet lady of sorrows, I really want to punch you right now.

*I wave her off* Saying mistrust is inherent to being a killjoy is like saying aggression is inherent to being a pit bull. In reality, it all comes down to the skill of the handler... *I trail off, leaving her to infer the obvious followup - "If you know what I mean."*

*I clutch the steering wheel a bit tighter. Sweet lady of sorrows, does this guy do anything BUT insult me and meddle in my relationship with Aftermath?* If you would please shut your mouth, I would refrain from blackening your eyes.

Well he's right, you know. We've never even talked about the subject. *I shrug* If i'm not attractive you can just say so. You'd be the first to think so, but that's okay. I think it's perfectly natural that we talk about sex. I know it would be hard... *I chuckle* Whoops, silly me. That sounded awful.

Oh sweet lady of sorrows. *I slam my foot on the brake and feel us skid a bit.* Are you two going to keep mocking me, or can I stay in the car?

*I put a hand on the back of Volume's seat to brace myself* I don't see why those two things are mutually exclusive. You're looking at this whole thing the wrong way. Afterdoo, darling, as illogical as it may be, I'm starting to believe she's actually taking us personally!

*As Vol hits the brakes I fly forward, slamming into the dash.* Well... *I clutch my nose. It's bleeding* That's one way to clear your sinuses, isn't it? *I shake my head to clear my blurred vision. Then I put my seatbelt on.* That was my bad. I should have thought that through. *I wipe off my nose and shake my head again.* Wooo! Man, that was cool.

*I perk up at the sound of Aftermath apparently smashing his face into something* That sounded painful. Do I need to kiss something better?

*I clutch my nose to stop the bleeding and chuckle.* I don't think so. I'll let you know if the problem persists, however. *I tilt my head back and try to breathe* Well... *I speak in between breaths* This is a wonderful way to start this mission. I'm glad to be back in the game.

Aftermath, you know how I drive. I'm surprised you weren't buckled in. I'm sorry, but it's also sort of your own fault. *I spare a second to glare at Vico before starting off again.* can the pair of you stop it yet?

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