I have a few I've enjoyed as long as you're not too particular. I'll bring a few with me later.

Be happy to take you whenever you'd like. It's peaceful enough. Cold though, and getting colder, we'll bring a blanket.

[...]

Date on the ledge of a building?

[assassin_daddy]

A talking blanket?

I was thinking it might be interesting to work out how I can get up there, but maybe that's for another time. If you want to help me up there, that's fine by me. We can cuddle under a blanket together.

[chrisisofaith]

No a sad regular blanket, I’ll just have to talk to you instead

Gods, when you do at least let me spot you or something. Otherwise sounds grand. Maybe you can hold my hand to keep me from falling as I lean over the side. Something different in the thrill of that versus doing it with wings out.

[assassin_daddy]

Ah well at least I'll earn my keep as a conversation partner.

Spot me? You know no one has done that since I was nine years old. You dont have to. But I'll hold your hand. And maybe we can find a smaller drop and ill teach you some leaps.

[chrisisofaith]

Darling I don’t know how tall you grow your buildings in London, but this thing’s a monster and I’d not scale it how you scale things without at least my anti-death magic no matter how old I was.

But I’ll learn leaps from you if you’ve a kind to teach, my dexterity is more fair than the average man, even if it’s nothing to a rogue.

[assassin_daddy]

St Paul's is over 30 of these modern storeys. That I can do easily. But I suppose the difference is foot and handholds. If you want to come, of course you can, I'll never say no to your company.

I'd love to. They're very good at distracting you from problems. It's a rush. But we'll start small. The jump is easy, the landing is harder

[chrisisofaith]

I'll give you my company and give the appropriate oohs and ahhs if you scale a smooth building. If you fall, I'll catch you and both be happier for it.

That's usually what I use for flying and for my motorcycle, but I'm always willing to try new ways to get that feeling. I surrender myself to your expert tutelage. You can talk form and technique a bit to me when I come over.

[That sounded very nice, really. Cuddling and talking shop? Feels like the closest they've gotten back to their norm since Jacob woke up.]

[assassin_daddy]

Oh, my hero! But I won't fall. There's some tricks you can employ if you lose your footing and whatnot.

Motorcycle? Now that I am yet to see. You should bring it over too. I think I remember how the motor cars work but I've never had the chance to really look at a motorcycle at close quarters.

[chrisisofaith]

Have I not shown you my motorcycle?
Suppose I always wanted to impress you with wing instead.
Mine's a little special, runs on water, namely the water in the air, so it doesn't smell terrible and it's made silent but you're welcome to poke around it.

[There's a few other enchantments too, but those seem the most important right now. Alright, when he came over next, motorcycle it would be.]

[assassin_daddy]

I'm not really the tinkering type, but I can appreciate something that goes fast with a pretty blond draped over it.

[chrisisofaith]

Well it certainly has both of those. I’ll take you for a ride on her

I’m told I don’t drive safely, so we’ll see what you think

[assassin_daddy]

I'm sure you're just fine. After all, you've not seen me drive.

[chrisisofaith]

Can you drive?

[assassin_daddy]

Carriages, traps and carts. And I was taught how to drive a car. Actually have one, parked outside Vrenille's place.

[chrisisofaith]

Do you? Alright, well maybe I'll show you how to ride the bike too if you like. Not too different from a horse in some ways and better than a car.

[assassin_daddy]

Better than a car? Can you support that bold claim?

[chrisisofaith]

Absolutely, in list form:
-Doesn't smell as bad as car, in fact mine doesn't smell like anything at all
-Mine isn't loud like a car
-Goes faster
-Wind in your face
-If you've got a passenger they have to hold onto you to keep from flying off
-Better leg room

[assassin_daddy]

hmm.

Those are good points.

But can you screw in the backseat?

[chrisisofaith]

Its enchanted not to fall over, could fuck on it, but I’ll concede it’s probably not as comfortable for it

[assassin_daddy]

Alright. One point against.

Can you carry three blokes in it plus a driver and a body in the trunk?

[chrisisofaith]

Three people on it sure, might be tight.
Body depends: does it have to be in one piece? Can I reduce it to ash first?
Can fit a lot of bodies if they've been reduced to ash

[assassin_daddy]

Creative thinking, I like it.

I suppose if you have the magical ability to do so, why not. You probably don't need to even transport them in that case. But some of us have to resort to more mundane methods.

Still, perhaps a motorbike has it's place.

[chrisisofaith]

And a car has its place, I’m simply not as fond of the roof over my head.

But if we ever need to get rid of a body, I think we’re covered.

[assassin_daddy]

You can sometimes remove the roof. Not from mine. But on some models. Although it's probably not as exhilarating
as flying, falling, or being on a motorcycle.

[chrisisofaith]

Oh probably not

Still, I'd ride in your car if you ever wanted to take us for a drive, just roll the windows down it'd be alright
