[Tasuki roamed about like he always did. It's not like there were any mountains around for him to chill at, and he was still figuring out how to pass his time in the day. He reserved most of his drinking for late hours after all.

That's when he came across this bike. Just what the fuck was it? It was shiny and...strange. So Sirius. Have a confused bandit crouched around your bike examining it with utter confusion.]

[marauderinggrim]

[The guy hovering around his bike amused him, especially the orange hair, and Sirius couldn't help but feel proud when someone seemed to be interested in his new 'baby'.]

Not that I don't appreciate the gawking, but you look like you've never seen a bike up-close before.

[suzakubandit]

[Yes, Sirius, be amused. Be very amused.]

Is that what this is?

[marauderinggrim]

[Enjoy the look of surprise and horror mixed in one.]

You don't know what a motorbike looks like? Where have you been living?

[Subtext: under a rock?]

[chasingstag]

You always have wanted a motorbike. [snerk]

[marauderinggrim]

[Completely Excited.]

Prongs!! Look at this beautiful bike. It seats three comfortably and if peter ever comes here, he's small enough to fit too.

I lol'd.

[chasingstag]

Oi, that's perfect! [circling it, inspecting] Please tell me we get to tinker to make it fly.

\o/

[Smirking]

It's done, well, in theory, but, I mean, I charmed it, so of course it'll work.

[xlillackeykitty]

[ Whoa, nice bike. Of course, Luka's gonna watch it with his head tilted. ]

That's a nice ride.

[marauderinggrim]

[Sirius Looks up with a broad grin.]

Thanks, just finished building it.

[xlillackeykitty]

You look to me like the kind of guy who knows how to take care of his wheels.

[ And he crouches down beside Sirius, inspecting a wheel. ]

Where'd you get the parts to put this together?

[marauderinggrim]

Well, I've been wanting one of these for a while, I've had some time to learn how.

There's a new shop just opened up in 'The Nook' It's got everything in there. Building materials for electronics, guides, and of course bits like these to make a beauty like this.

Axel wasn't really surprised that not much had changed in his absence. Hell, he hadn't even realized at first that he'd been gone, though a month had gone by. At least he knew his efforts to be remembered worked, anyway--it was nice to know he'd been missed. It wasn't the living forever part of immortality he'd always been after; living forever would probably get boring after a while. There was only so much one could do, after all. It was the knowing that people would remember him long after he was gone that interested him. That was immortality the lazy man's way: endless life without all that effort at being awake and doing stuff forever.

(That wasn't to say he liked the part where he was actually technically already dead. He was just glad his efforts had paid off either way

Sirius turned to face the man who had snuck up behind him. Nice hair he thought.

"Built it, there's a store in 'The Nook' that sells the parts. That hair color...that's not natural is it?"

He had told himself he wasn't going to ask...oh well.

sorry for the wait. work. it kills. @__@

[got_it_memorizd]

Axel looked genuinely impressed. He didn't really have a lot of mechanical aptitude himself--oh, sure, he was plenty good at breaking stuff... it was the putting it back together part that tended to stump him. He was about to tell this stranger just how cool he thought his bike was, too, when the man barged right into a completely unrelated subject. Now, Axel wasn't offended--Axel was rarely offended--but he was caught so very off guard by the complete and utter lack of segue or sequitur that he could do nothing but blink for a moment.

It was a very brief moment. Axel was rarely caught off guard for long.

"Now, now," he chided, wagging a finger and brushing a hand back through his hair, "I don't usually answer that question until a second date." And then he just laughed. "You don't beat around the bush, do you, Ace?" he chuckled. "I appreciate that." Folding his arms, he grinned. "Name's Axel. And incidentally, it is natural; got it memorized?"

XD It's all right, so does life.

[marauderinggrim]

Sirius grinned, he liked this guy.

"The second date? Why not the first, it's a good conversation starter. Though, it might be too impressive for them to find out it's not from a bottle."

The teen shot Axel a cheeky smile.

"My name's Sirius, it's nice to meet you. That date will have to wait, I have a policy of not dating strange guys I've only just met."
