Allison was in the small service area of the garage with her bike, pulling some panels off and inspecting the internal workings again. "If I have to pull the engine," she muttered to herself, pulling a tool out of her own personal toolbox and taking the air intake off. Her mood was somewhat dark and she had an iPad with speakers set up nearby blasting some Guns N' Roses.

Nick was parking his own bike when he heard the music from the service area and went to see who was in there. He peeked in and whistled his appreciation... of the bike. Of course, the woman was nothing to sneeze at either.

"Nice ride."

"Thanks," she said, looking up. "Right now it's just a pain in my ass though. Something didn't make the trip properly."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 10:05 am**

"I know how that is from bringing mine over, but then mine's not nearly as pricey looking."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 7:44 pm**

"It's not like I can take this to the dealership either, since I've put some custom work into it."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 8:37 pm**

"Mind if I take a look? I'm a pretty good at the mechanic thing. Also, telekinesis is damned handy in repair work."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 8:41 pm**

"Be my guest," she said, moving aside. "I think I may have to take the engine out and check all the parts again."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 8:44 pm**

He knelt down to inspect the motorcycle visually while gently "feeling" around inside the it's guts with telekinesis for any obvious problems.

There were a few things that had gotten jarred loose and could just be put back into place, but something inside the engine had broken loose and would have to be replaced.

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 8:57 pm**

He closed his eyes for a moment. "Something's definitely broken in the engine... part of the camshaft I think, but I can't be sure until seeing it visually."

Posted: **Sun Apr 27, 2014 9:07 pm**

She sighs, "Just my luck then, I guess. Want to help me pull the engine out to get a better look?"

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 9:31 am**

"Sure. I've got nowhere to be for awhile," he said as he stood, before extending a hand, "Name's Nick."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 10:21 am**

"Allison," she said, shaking the offered hand before sorting through the tools they'd need to pull the motor.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 2:20 pm**

Nick used his powers to start the process while she looked, but even he needed some tools.

"Don't worry about any of the basic tools. My powers can do the simple things."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 2:25 pm**

"Where's the fun in that though?" Still, she only pulled out the special stuff. "College student?" She asked as she started working one of the bolts.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 3:22 pm**

"Yeah. Music major with a side of superhero," he grinned.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 4:39 pm**

"That seems to be the way to go around here."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 6:49 pm**

"Where else but Xavier's can somebody learn how to literally save the world?"

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 7:02 pm**

"Depends on your definition of 'save the world'," she said with a grunt as she pulled off a stubborn part.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 7:05 pm**

"Like stopping a mad scientist from another dimension from ripping reality apart."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 7:12 pm**

"I believe that's in the dictionary under 'saving the world'. Some of us are just less... hero-inclined."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 7:18 pm**

"And there's nothing wrong with that," he answered as he finished removing a bolt.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 7:52 pm**

She finished another bolt, "Every once in a while, I wonder..."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 8:02 pm**

"...that maybe you wouldn't make a bad crimefighter afterall?"

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 8:05 pm**

"No, I still think I'd make a lousy crime fighter. Just maybe that there's something wrong with that. I'm sure you'd call it 'old person's regret'."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 8:09 pm**

"You? Old?" he asked incredulously.

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 8:55 pm**

"Aren't all your teachers old farts?"

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 9:03 pm**

"Only some of them. Though having an immortal old fart around skews the scale."

Posted: **Mon Apr 28, 2014 9:16 pm**

"I've heard about Sackville. He would skew the curve a bit."

Posted: **Tue Apr 29, 2014 10:01 am**

"Having an immortal history professor is actually pretty cool though. I think the high-schooler I'm power tutoring might even have some kind of crush on him, but he does have that 'looks kinda like David Bowie' thing going for him."

Posted: **Tue Apr 29, 2014 11:08 am**

"That would certainly be a plus." The iPad switched over to playing AC/DC's 'Shoot To Thrill'. "So what do you do in your off time besides the superhero gig?"

Posted: **Tue Apr 29, 2014 2:18 pm**

"Work on my music mostly, and hang around in the Rose & Crown. Occasionally perform there too."

Posted: **Tue Apr 29, 2014 2:20 pm**

"You'll have to let me know the next time you're playing. Music goes well with a good beer and they have a few good ones."

Posted: **Tue Apr 29, 2014 2:47 pm**

"Hell yeah it does," he agreed, "I'll be sure to do that."
