Sometimes love's a loaded gun, and it shoots to kill.

Alright, the kitchen is done, so now, Gaara, I'll come pick you up; where are you, exactly

The bus station off of 67th and West street should be sufficient. I'll be there in about an hour or so if that works for you?

Fish would be interesting.

I can't say that I ever had a pet before.

[crooked_tongue]

That works. Have you much luggage?

I had a goldfish when I was small, and I watched it grow to a foot long.

[volatile_sands]

Not really. Just an additional bag along with the one I left with and my laptop.

I wasn't aware that they grew to that size. Just that most died within a week or so.

[crooked_tongue]

Alright, then. One of these days I'll have to just give you your own car to avoid these trips...

Then don't die if you take care of them. I may not be able to cook, but I can at least keep a fish alive.

[volatile_sands]

Barring any future mishaps, there shouldn't have to be any further trips in the near future. There was just never a point before where I needed a vehicle when the public transportation was more then sufficient. I am quite sure, however, that my reluctance to use the subway is understandable.

That is good to know, then. I would hate to have to study up properly on how to care for the different breeds to keep them all alive on my own.

[crooked_tongue]

Ok, so you don't want a car. But I'm not keen on your taking public transportation.

No, I can do it. We'll have to go to a pet store and get aquariums and such... I'll have to drive something... big and ugly...

[volatile_sands]

I didn't say that, I was just pointing out that it wasn't a huge issue yet. And if I really wanted to, I suppose I could get mine shipped out here from back home. Or just pick out something new here, whichever. Doesn't particularly make a lot of difference to me.

Do you even have such a vehicle in your arsenal or should we go about making arrangements for a rental?

[crooked_tongue]

You have some sort of issue with my cars?

As a matter of fact, I have two. A HUMMER and a Mercedes SUV.

[volatile_sands]

Did I say that there was? Perhaps I was not seeking to take advantage of someone who was already kind enough to extend their home to one such as myself? It is not like I could not afford it and you have already been more then generous with both your time and your finances.

Then there shouldn't be any issue aside from the unpleasing aesthetics, yes?

[crooked_tongue]

Oh, right; I keep forgetting you actually have money, owing to your never buying anything.

I like my cars small and sleek. I use the HUMMER for groceries and the Mercedes for car-pools, but that's all.

[volatile_sands]

...There was nothing I needed to worry about purchasing really. My apartment was my largest expense really since I came out here.

Quite understandable. I cannot deny enjoying a few of your vehicles during our various trips.

[crooked_tongue]

Well, I do get this feeling that, if I did let you drive somewhere, I'd make you pull over after about a mile so I could drive the rest of the way.

That reminds me, I need to get a new part for the Mazerati.

[volatile_sands]

...Cute.

It should be no trouble ordering one then.

[crooked_tongue]

It's the truth. What kind of car do you have, anyway?

Hopefully.

[volatile_sands]

Red BMW something or another. Why?

[crooked_tongue]

....Unless it's a BMW Z-4... it's not going in my garage.
