[Hey former not!daughter, have Arucied randomly strolling by...looking for mischief. She happens to notice Margot in the car, and waves like an idiot. She tries to approach, but the sudden loud shriek from the vehicle causes her to blanch and take a few steps back.]
[She tentatively approaches the vehicle once again, looking inside the window.]
But to be honest I don't even know how to make one of these move. I do think those pedals down there have something to do with it...but I don't really know what they do.
Ohh. At least you kicked its ass. [Arcueid gives her a smile, seemingly satisfied with that...then decides to let the issue drop.]
As far as this car goes though...I never figured out how they work. I bet somebody knows though. I think a lot of people here come from places where they use these a lot.
I'm gonna assume she left it running...so she can witness THE HORRORmakemebreakfastJuly 18 2010, 19:31:10 UTC
It's scary...especially if the car is running.
[Arcueid digs around inside the car for a bit, until she finds the hood release mostly by accident. The hood makes that loud POP sound, and Arcueid worms her way out of the car.]
Okay...get ready...and DON'T put your hand in it...or anything else for that matter.
[Arcueid then fumbles around under the hood a bit until she finds the latch...then SLOWWWWWLY opens the hood...TO REVEAL THE HORRIBLE RUNNING ENGINE CONTAINED WITHIN IT'S GAPING MAW!!]
What are you doing to that car?

[Patting the steering wheel.]
Shh, shh, it's okay, I'm sorry!

It's not alive, you know! It's just a machine.

[Looking down at the car and blinking her one eye in surprise. Oh.]
So it can't hear me or anything and I'm really not hurting it?

[And Arcueid suddenly notices that one eye of hers.]
Wh-what happened??

I got my scars back?

Are you okay?
[Arcueid does sound genuinely concerned...it seems that whole "mommy" business sort of stayed with her even after the both of them disappeared.]

I, uh... Kind of had a run in with a monster at home. Kicked its ass, but lost an eye. It's cool, though.

It just... seems like a good skill to have here or something.

I mean, I don't need a car or anything. All it does is get you to places faster...but using them will just make you lazy.
Plus...they're a little bit scary. Have you ever seen INSIDE one? [She points to the hood as she asks this, with a look of "OH GOD" on her face.]

...No. What's in it?
[Getting out of the car to take a look.]

[And then it opens.
And then she knew real fear.]
WHAT THE FUCK IS ALL OF THAT?!

Apparently it gets so hot that it'll burn you if you touch it! And all that moving stuff can just CHOP your hand right off!
[Arcueid is just staring at the running engine in awe.]
I mean, it's all just machines...but all that moving and rumbling stuff makes it move somehow.

Why would someone make something like this?! Who thought this was a good idea?!
