"Anybody home?" Jonathan called, as he made his way down to the secret lair from the shop proper.

"I got some good news and bad news..."

"We're down here, Jonny -- what's up?" Warren called.

"Welll.... good news is my Dad said yes to the van as long as I don't use it to 'party'," Jonathan said.

And then he made a horrified face. "The bad news is he told me this story about he used to have a party van... and he and my mom used to hang out in it... and... I was apparently conceived in the back of it."

He shuddered. "I so never wanted to know that."

Warren snickered. "So the condition is that you don't use it to pick up girls to 'party'? Wow."

"Yeah, pretty much... well, and I have to prove that I can actually drive it," Jonathan said, embarrassed by that as well.

"My mom thinks I'm too short to have a van - she wants me to get a Honda hatchback or something. What the heck would we fit in one of those?"

"Well, you can't fit flamethrowers and chain guns in a hatchback," Warren said firmly. "So a van's preferable. Though if nothing else, I still say we could just try to find some vampires with a van and take it from them."

"...hmmmm..." Jonathan pondered.

"If my dad's giving me money for a van, we could just take that money... and get a van from vampires and then we'd have money AND a van."

He felt kinda guilty about plotting to lie to his parents, but they did have a lot of projects to fund and very little money with which to accomplish their goals.

Warren nodded. "Now you're thinking, Jonnyboy." He patted Maya on the rear. "Which reminds me -- we've got to get you combat-trained, girl. Teach you how to protect. You've got serving down already."
