Downtime 2, Wk 2: I own the streets

Postby Rouen Coltaire » Mon Sep 21, 2009 2:54 pm

Wingnut was testing out the repairs to his bike, crusing up and down the main strip of Mutant Town, generally being an annoying prick.

"Think your point was proven after the twelfth pass, Mister Coltaire," Ms. McManus commented as he passed. She'd been shopping at some of the street vendors for little things to cheer up some of her shapeshifting students that were having difficulties.

"Ah, who asked ya?" Wingnut grumbled, pulling up to a stop in front of her.

"I've known Mister Logan for years, so I'm more than familiar with putting a motorcycle through its paces."

Wingnut waved his hand dismissively. "I've seen his ride. If he calls THAT a bike, his brain's more mush than it looks like."

She smirked.

"I thought a Harley was the tough man's gold standard."

Wingnut rolled his eyes. "Man, 'es getting NUTTIN out of that thing. Give me fifteen minutes with it, and it'd be so damn strong, he'd be flat on his butt from tryin' to ride it."

"I'd say he's gotten enough thrills that he doesn't need one of them to be the Harley."

"As I understand it, he rides to relax and clear his head. He's had the same bike as long as I've known him, so he does know a thing or two about taking care of it."

"I didn't say it's as old as he is. The man survived a tour of duty in World War II."

"Too bad we don't have anyone competent in the motor pool, then," Cal said, smirking, from the doorway of the store where he'd been re-stocking his now depleted booze supply.

"Competent? Psh. Give me fifteen minutes with HIM, and I could turn him into something more useful, too. Like a Big Mouth Billy Bass," he said, not turning to face Cal.

"Ooooh, says the big man who's needed to be protected the last couple times he pissed me off. Yeah, really scared of a street-brawling thug here," Cal said, rolling his eyes.

Cal smirked. "Oh, by the way, better take it back in and check it out again, the timing's still off on that piece of junk," he said as he started heading back toward the school.
