Yeah. [ Yeaahhhh. :( ] I'm more of... I like fixing up vehicles and knowing how they work, and what you can add to them. But I don't actually have a lot of experience with them. Just-- three?
I can take one, but the body doesn't look great. We were more focused on getting the upgrades and getting the balance and weight of the car right so it would drive okay.
[ But! He'll start moving, to get to the car. ] Have you ever made a car from scratch? It's kind of a waste, them making the garages and then tearing them down.. maybe some of the parts are still around somewhere.
Yeah, I spent a lot of time in my workshop since I got it. I don't know how most people past the time.
[ Who don't have a workshop.
But there's a notification as a video is sent, and Gorgug adds, ] I sent you a clip of the car -- I haven't worked on the paint job, and we hit a lot of sh...stuff, [ as explanation (and totally not a cover up for a swear).
It's a short clip, an easy walk around from the front of the car to one side. It's a two-seater, with wheels suitable for most terrains, and the bodywork is mostly silver and blacks, the metal not entirely smooth where it's meant to curve, showing work done by amateurs--but still amateurs who made a car.
There's dents around the front of the car, and there's also stencil work on the door, the singular decoration that the car has: of a cool looking dude. ]
[She's mostly focused on the car, anyway: watching the clip a few times, pausing here and there to get a better look at certain areas or details. It's not an expert job, sure, but it looks roadworthy and it's not ugly as hell, two things that count for a lot more than a few panels that dapple a little.
Finally, she pipes back up--]
The paintwork's not bad; I like the colors. What's with the Elvis stencil, though?
Oh. I don't-- I'm okay with it? I like the heavier stuff. [ A pause. ] My teammate designed that. He said it was a cool guy in his world. A real gangster.

I'm the Shaw that Reese apparently told you about a few months ago.

Oh. [ The...Shaw.... .... ] ...the person who's into cars?

That was...fun.

[Sorry, Gorgug; she hears your question, and she'll answer it, but not before volleying back this clearly more important question first.]
no subject
[ A task. Is that what you would call those things? Probably. ]
no subject
I don't know if I have the patience to build something like that from scratch, but this place is dull as hell if we don't find ways to fill the days.
