"Speak of the devil." Kendall rose on his shocks for a better view over the crowd. "Your brother's here now, with buddies and... girlbuddy."
"Shooters are no particular model, or line, we're all over the genetic map." Kamui explained. "What ties us together is family, love and honor. We don't go for conscious "breeding" or arranged relationships."

Ebony rose on her shocks to see over the crowd, spotting her brother and the rest of the DRH as well as Shrike. She waved at them.
*****
"You look like a Ford Focus to me," Delfina said as she listened attentively. "So is family, love, and honor like a belief system for you?"
(((((OOC: And there is a Ford Focus of the same blue color as Kamui that's always parked on my street... XD)))))

"You're not the first one to say that." Kamui nodded. "But you'd never know it from looking at my folks. And no actual Focus I knew had the power plant I was born with."
<<< Like Secretariat and his unusually large heart >>>
"Sis!" Boost called out. "I don't think I saw a crowd like this since my last race."

Daniel found Shroder a bit eccentric as speaking with him. But as he was like a Scottish Mater, it didn't take long for him to get used to it.
"Hey Shroder, you have seen the horses by now. How about seeing the 'monster' that attacked you at day one?" He smirked slightly. While there was some Schadenfraude to gain from the encounter, Daniel wanted to know just if he could get Frisa stable.

"Oh, so that's what make you racer material," said Delfina.
*****
"There was more when I used to race regularly," replied Ebony, "but it's nice to see you out here, Bro."
The twins chirped joyfully from their slings as they scented their uncle.

Shroder hesitated. "Y'sure she won't try t'eat me?"
"Y'know, before I was on the team, I was a waitress at my sponsor's flagship diner." Kamui said. "I was always speeding off to work so I wouldn't be late. Got a LOT of tickets that way. Finally the poor constable just broke down and said "For Chrysler's sake, why don't you go in the Piston Cup or something?" And something clicked in my brain and I went "why not?"
"Thanks, Sis." Boost took the mild jibe in good humor. He grinned to the twins. "How's it goin', nephews?"
"They know you already." Shrike commented before turning her attention to Ebony. "G'morning."

"She won't, I promise." Daniel smiled more friendly now. "We just got to make sure that she understand how to behave around you."

"Ah, I see," nodded Delfina.
*****
The twins chirped at Boost.
"I'm just joking," said Ebony, "I do it to Nix all the time."
She nodded to Shrike. "Morning."

"One of your favorite hobbies," Phoenix said with a grin as Gryffin peeked curiously out of his basket.

"The other is spending time with my nephew," said Ebony as she waved an antenna in front of Gryffin.

Boost looked around the front room of the shop. "Wow. Quite the setup here."
"Congratulations, Ondine." Shrike said. "Good luck with your business."
"Thank you." The Bricklin returned the smile.
Boost turned back to Ebony and the twins. "Looks like two somebodies in particular are getting a little restless."
"OK, right," Shroder relented. "That's what Exan-gurl wanted me to do anyway. Get used to ther critters."
"Is that for Aron?" Kamui saw a couple of men rolling an ATV out.

Daniel went off to get Frisa, then returned with her, handling her carefully as he didn't know if she would recognize Shroder as the one who had 'shooed' her. She wasn't even as tall as him, so it was bit comical, knowing that Shroder had been afraid of her to begin with. Still, those hoof were not to be reckoned with.

"Yeah, but I can't let them down here," said Ebony, "I'm afraid that they might get hurt with all these cars here."
*****
Delfina nodded, "Yeah, he's going to use that as transportation to get to the spot to lure and trap Egill."

"We've got rooms set up in the back for treatments." Ondine said. "You can use one of those."
"And where will we be when that's going on? Not too far away, I hope." Kamui eyed the machine.
Frisa extended her neck and sniffed at Shroder's hood, blowing out after a few seconds of investigation. Shroder froze as the mare's nose brushed him, but stood still.

After allowing Frisa to inspect Shroder, he backed her up some way. "Here's your monster." He said. "Even smaller than the other horses." He stroked her neck and patted it.
