Boost shakes his front, knowing it would be pointless to try an explain, "Nothing much. Just a little chat with Neil."
~~~~~~~~~
"Yeah, that would be a good idea," agreed Ebony. She smiled at Slaytor.
(((((OOC: Yeah, good idea. Nodding off here already. Time to put this Viper to bed. Feel free to puppet. I'll see everyone tomorrow. G'night.)))))

Robb notices Ebony and Slaytor pulling out and headed west. He smiles to Clara. "Did you want to see the poly 3d printer system Zed went to great lengths to get?"
(ok, I'm getting to that point too, bed's a calling. gonna check once more after my shower then I'm out)

"That sounds like an idea." Lyle grinned. "Been way too long since I had a decent run, and hangin' around those lowlifes is gettin' to me."
"Now Jean, I c'n take care 'a myself well 'nuff." Tex laughed. "I just don't like t' think of my li'l girl beddin' out in parking lots. Sally would be glad to set you up."

Jean tucked away the paperwork with a playful smile, rumbling over to nudge her father affectionately. "Only if you get yourself a room too." She smiled brightly. "You had breakfast yet? Seein' as how I fell asleep at a diner..."
Jay watched his father drive off somewhat quietly, then gave his mother a glance before following. Flo frowned worriedly... that just wasn't like Ramone.
As for Clara, she gave a cheerful smile at that offer. "I'd love to see that!" That as followed by a teasing, playful grin. "Although I'd love to know who he had to blackmail to get it."
And David waited patiently for someone to answer his call for assistance out by Veronica...

Phoenix decided not to press it. "I should warn you, Neil hasn't had fresh meat for a while and he's gotten bored 'playing' with Kitt's head. So don't be surpised if Neil plays a few jokes on ya. Underneath it all he's just a joker." She said with a nuzzle.
(((And off to bed with the rsident pirate dragon, see ya in the morning. Insane out.)))

Robb chuckles, "Actually Zed's a shareholder in several high-tech companies in Japan, and his dad runs the import company Zed started with the family fortune. He gets all kinds of new, never before seen toys." Robb picks up his can and backs out of the parking spot, leading the way to the body shop.
(are David and Veronica are near the other helos?)

<<< They're at Kamui's camp, which is near the others. >>>
Buck was clear out at the other end of the lot, when he got David's call, and taxiied over as quickly as he could. "Need to get something? How is she?"
At that point, Veronica had fallen back into a doze.
"All right, all right." Tex shrugged. "We'll go over and see if there's any rooms left."

Ramone sighed heavily and closed his eyes for a moment, opening them again to stare at he far wall. He didn't really feel himself lately, and he figured it had something to do with the recent events in town. He didn't really have anything to do with most of it, but it still upset him and worried him a bit...

"Sleeping right now, sir," David responded, glancing at Veronica. "She said she was a bit hungry. I can't go far, obviously..." He smiled a bit, still sheepish. "I was wondering if someone could bring something over for her."
Clara clicked her tongue a bit. "Wow. That's so lucky. Jay and I, we built from the ground up, going on the talent we got from Papá and the business savvy we got from Mamá."
The Nova lifted his front at that, then whuffed and turned, heading out to pull into the body shop. "Papá...?"

Ramone picked himself up when he heard Jay's voice. "I'm in the back," he called, not making any move to leave the room to talk to his son.

Robb grins, "Actually it's Zed's talent that got him in with the tech companies, He spent several years in japan looking up his family on his mom's side. He was networking with the tech companies execs by day, and drifting with the employees at night. Finally he convinced his dad to order a shipment of at-cost equipment from his friends, which sold like hubcaps here. Zed invested some of the profits in the tech companies, and the rest into a shipping business."
Robb gestures in the direction of the row of shops in the back half of town, "Shall we?"
(ok that's it for me. see you all tomorrow)

"Sure." Buck smiled. Veronica had a ways to go yet before she was completely recovered. "I'll go over to Flo's and see if they have any shakes."
Along with Huntress, Lyle pulled out for a drive before going back to guard duty, and facing those schmucks all day.
"I was just about ta order somethin'" Tex nodded. He caught the eye of one of the twins, who came over eagerly. He was a good tipper, after all.

Jean chuckled and rolled her eyes a bit. Her father certainly knew how to deal with people...
"Something's bothering you," the young Nova stated quietly as he rolled into the back room, watching his father carefully. "Mamá noticed. I saw how she was watching. Is something wrong, Papá?"
David perked a bit and grinned. "Thank you so much, sir. I very much appreciate it."
((And now... chibi goes to pass out. Considering that Aaron was supposed to be re-arriving in town soon, I suppose it would be prudent to return him at some point later...
In the meanwhile... g'night~!))

Ramone hated for his son to see him like this, but he supposed it was too late now. "Your mother knows about it. I talked to her yesterday." He sighed. "I'll be fine, Jay. This town's just not the same as it used to be. So much suffering..." He looked to his son. "I've been here for around 50 years. I've seen Radiator Springs when it was a happy place. I've seen it when it got bypassed. Now I've got to see it like this. I'd hoped that, because of Lightning McQueen, this place would be back the way it should be. But it's not. Everywhere I look I see people getting hurt, people upset. It's not right to me. I didn't like the town when it had been as empty as it was, but instead of taking a turn for the better it's taken a turn for the worse." He moved over to where his son was. "I want to fix it, but I can't, so I've resorted to painting myself again to keep my mind off of things, but it's not working like it used to. I want everyone to have a good time again like they should." He actually felt a bit better now that he'd gotten that out, though that hadn't been what he'd been expecting. He smiled at Jay now. "Thank you for giving me someone to talk to. I appreciate it. Let's head back over to the cafe and get some breakfast, if you haven't already."
((I want to make note that this post majorly expresses not only how Ramone feels but also how I feel about the RP. I don't like all this misery, as it's not what Radiator Springs was meant to have. I'm going to bed now, please don't puppet.))

Buck went off to get David's order for him...
<<< And it's bedtime for this bonzo... RECAP: A day of recovery for most folks. Ebony and Slaytor get closer, Shawn goes back to his little alley and grumps, the foxdog wants attention and sucks up to Natalie and Ebony, Veronica is weak and dog-tired and needs to recover her energy. Kamui and Slick have their snuggle-time and then Sonya and Huracan show up. Shroder, in the meantime, bugs the hell out of Storm over the issue of getting a girl, until Storm shoves him out and tells him to watch other couples, whereby he starts sneaking up on and pestering any couple that he sees. Ramone gets to know Robb and figure out that he's OK. Zed reveals more of what he does. Sonya has some revelations for Kamui. More than a few folks are wondering about Amber and what her changes will mean to her relationship with General Lee. See ya tomorrow! >>>
