"He's fine, lives in London now running a firm over there." Kitt said. "Went into law after that last accident of his. Thats when he met my mom and how I came along and how I got into it too."

"I have my moments," replied Sapphire, "But with me, you'd better keep on your tires. There's no telling what I might do."
~~~~~
"Rarely," Boost replied sadly, "Ebony grew up without love from anybody except from Hydro and myself, but she refused to let us take care of her like that. She was always a bitter little thing that she took out most of her frustrations on herself. Nobody knew how she was feeling, but only once did I see her cry."

"Ah..." Strip nodded. "I bet he's as tough in the courtroom as he was on the track, if I know anything about him at all. So what branch of law are you into?"
"He's been hanging around the tents a lot." Darcy answered on Hunter's behalf. "We've been looking after him. I think he really does miss you, though."

"I missed him too," replied Ebony, sniffing, "I think it's probably because I haven't been in the tents for awhile. I felt more comfortable in the tents than I do in this cone."

"Defense, I work with a lot of wrongly accused tuners and ex-cons." Kitt said. "I switched sides when I saw how Phoenix are treated when she got out."
~~~~~
"Oh ho." Neil chuckled. "You have to be quick to catch me off guard. I may not see to good but I can usually hear ya coming a mile away."
~~~~~
"Then she could really use this being treated like a Queen for a day." Phoenix said.

"I've also had my eyes opened, this past month." Strip admitted. "I didn't really know what to make of tuners before then, I didn't really know them, and didn't have enough experience with them to make any judgements, so I didn't. I've come to know a few such people in this town, they definitely live by their own code and make you work hard to establish a level of trust, but once they know you keep your word and deal fairly, they'll treat you likewise."
"You must really be looking forward to getting that house built." Darcy glanced towards the construction materials and prefab sections being unloaded.

"So you've got tuner senses, eh?" Sapphire only smirked playfully, "But you know what? I've been watching the tuners myself and learning from them. I can manage it somehow."
~~~~~
"I think we should go tell her," said Boost, "You and I both know she doesn't like to left in the dark when something big's being planned nor does she like surprises. It's best that she knows about this first."
~~~~~
"Yeah, hopefully by the next month and a half," replied Ebony, "Slaytor promised. It'd be so nice to live in a house after so many years of being homeless."

Robb looks around the scatterred scraps of Mater's Salvage Yard, followed by Wellington, " So what do you think I should use as a ram plate?"
"Ah dunno lad, tere's lots o old parts here, but nothin tat's sturdy enough"
Robb turns to Mater, "You wouldn't by any chance have a secret stash of special scrap hidden around here would you? I can make it worth your while."
***
Zed supervises as the bulldozer begins it's work, clearing the plots of brush and junk.
Slaytor heads over to Flo's with a big fuel order for all the working machines. A small flock of forklifts and a couple cranes are setting up the covered parking area, throwing up a heavy canvas tent cover over a frame.
Diane comes up to Red, "Hey big guy, I was wondering if you could help me. I need someone to wet down the ground, you know, keep down the dust over at the site?" She points at the bustle at the other end of town, which is already raising quite a dust cloud.

"Thats right," Kitt said. "A lot really don't trust a lot of lawyers, so its a bit more work. But knowing Phoenix helps a bit understanding them. She's been there and back."
~~~~~
"Hey, when you loss part of your sight, the rest make up for it." Neil said indicating his blind eye. "But you;ll have your work cut out for ya if you try to pull one over me."
~~~~~
"We should." Phoenix said as they went back to the Cone. "She might enjoy it more."

Shawn offered the kennel a half-glare, as if looking at it would provoke an explanation. Only now did he notice the barely audible whining emitting from it. Damn foxdog.
Scowling, the gray hybrid replied slowly, dreading the answer as much as using 'he' in the place of 'it'. "He is not really mine, per se, but what, if I dare ask, did he do?"

"Hey, I don't mind challenges," replied Sapphire, "and I do work hard to get to where I want to go or what I want to do." ~~~~~ Ebony was resting in her cone and petting Hunter, who had somehow become her companion. ~~~~~ "She would like it much more," agreed Boost, as they headed back to the Cones. (((((OOC: And what time of the day is it? I forgot... ^^;; ))))

"Maybe Kitty will pick up on it and learn a few things on being sneaking." Neil said. "See I'm not that bad. I just know how to have fun."
~~~~~
"She will. Hey Ebs." Phoenix said as they got to the cone. "I want to ask ya something."
(((I have the slightest idea.)))

"Of course. Would you like to take me up on a challenge?" asked Sapphire, getting a sly grin.
~~~~~
Ebony peeked out of her cone as Boost and Phoenix pulled up, "What is it?"

"A challenge," Neils said, taking the bait. "You're talkin' to a guy who's never really turned down a challenge, what is it?"
~~~~~
"An idea to cheer you up," Phoenix said. "How would you feel about being treated like a Queen for a day?"

<<< SIGH! Sorry I couldn't be on earlier guys, but I was fixing up a lasagna for the folks' dinner tonight and my sister just got a computer and has no idea how to put it together out of the box and at some point this week I'll have to go out and help her with it!>>>
"He... um... went traipsing in the tulips, a little more than that big red fellow would have liked." Malcolm indicated Red, who was watering his fixed-up flowerbed in despairing silence.
"She's already told me something of that," Strip nodded to Kitt. "Not to mention Mr. Life-of-the-Party over there." he indicated Neil. "Hmmm... my better half will prolly be around soon, if you'd like to meet her."
Ondine and Darcy smiled to Phoenix and Boost as they pulled up.
