WHAT cars
WHERE everywhere
WHEN 99


[today QM is full of... old cars in very good condition

'old' according to who? well i guess that's up to you. someone's old is someone else's future hover car! the point is cars are parked all over the place, almost bumper to bumper, and for some reason all of the NPCs are old men, tottering around, buffing their car, praising someone's car...


if you aren't into car shows i guess the streets are just slightly difficult to navigate for some stupid reason.]

[Some guy wrapped in a heavy coat and cute scarf is hurrying nervously through the car show, trying to find a way out that seems strangely elusive. He's trying so hard that he's not paying much attention to who's in his way, though he keeps up a constant mumble as he pushes his way past knot after knot of chatty old men.]

Excuse me, pardon--

[OOC: info and pings and stuff /o/]

[takinginvain]

[doesn't actually see him but there are a few dead NPCs around and Lucifer is idly poking around inside of a very fancy looking futuristic hover car

it's playing unbearably loud music that no one likes]

[honoraria]

[He's trying to skirt around the whole scene unnoticed when he realizes it's Lucy in the car...

Being so desperately glad to see him is probably messed up but whatever, Cecy is going to Not Think About That and hurry over anyway.]

[takinginvain]

[kind of looking up, as if he sensed him despite the fact that this music is definitely too noisy to hear anyone coming near

blink blink

mouth's]

'oh, cecy'.

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ there's someone else trying to scoot her way through the all the car aficionados, but since there's not much space a bump is inevitable. ...unfortunately, she's weirdly light, which is probably why she yelps and stumbles a step or two in response ]

—excuse me.

[honoraria]

[Cecy jerks back in alarm, before tentatively approaching]

I'm sorry. Are you...alright?

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ waving her hands ]

Mm, I'm fine! Nothing so much as bruised aside from my dignity, and it's frankly used to that.

[rightwingman]

Oh no, pardon me.

[cheerfully, like neither of them are a total wild ride of pings]

[honoraria]

[hey fun fact did you know Cecy's never met an angel in person before? he sure is enjoying this mess of "demon but also NOT demon?? but also can definitely nuke you" in his brain.]

Oh--no--I'm sorry--

[rightwingman]

Really, it's alright.

[30more]

[ Do you even recognize this guy?

It doesn't matter he's going to try and kick you. ]

[honoraria]

[ If they've met in the past 3 years while Judy was in this body, then yes.

Either way, OW, what did he do to deserve this]

I said, excuse me--

[30more]

[ oh probably yeah ]

Why're you here anyway?

[rightwingman]

[Kevin is right in there with the old men, giving them his full and complete attention]

And you say people race in these?

[kimaris]

[ that excitement is weirdly adorable

He's just hanging around because this sort of rich old guy behaviour is pretty familiar, so now he's turning to him with a tilted head. ]

Not just these, either.

[rightwingman]

What else? I know horses and dogs and boats, but these are new!

[kimaris]

Airplanes are common, as are many sorts of vehicles similar to these. [ A soft laugh. ] Even mobile suits.

[cannonbeauty]

[ Excitedly checking out the mechanics displayed in a car with a popped hood. ]

Ah! I wonder how fast they can go!

[rightwingman]

It must be fast! A horse couldn't keep up!

[cannonbeauty]

Certainly faster than a horse, but perhaps not as much as a racing airship.

Regardless, cars are quite impressive!

[griefers]

[ honestly who cares if it's not bersercar. ]

Hmmm... it's not that impressive.

[ Says this little girl to a bunch of old rich men, who are naturally offended. ]

[cannonbeauty]

[ A girl giving off servant pings bends down to whisper politely: ]

Even if you believe that, you'll hurt their feelings if you say it so directly.

[griefers]

Is that right? Don't adults have better control over that sort of thing?

[cannonbeauty]

[ laughing because oh my, what a sassy girl. Big sis wants to adopt her ]

Some adults get a little more sensitive as they grow up. Even if they’re capable of reacting better, you still shouldn’t say things that aren’t nice.
