un: Jay.T | Video

[leastdramatic]

[Today’s video feed is of a fit man in his early twenties and wearing his usual brown leather jacket over a red hoodie. He’s standing in front of a large auto repair shop. The shop’s front sign is also visible and says Grease Lightning! Next to the shop’s name is a black and white totally cool mascot.

For those who are especially observant, you may also notice a red-wing blackbird hanging around and making a nest near the shop’s sign]

Hey, so I don’t know how many of you need to know this but I run the auto shop now.

[Jason then walks and moves the camera to show the shop’s interior. It’s spacious and there’s a variety of equipment and basic spare parts needed to fix vehicles. Tucked in one corner of the shop is a books shelf already filled to capacity, a desk, and a chair.

The camera then switches back to Jason]

Not much else is gonna change. Feel free to drop by if you need repairs or wanna mod something. The place is big enough that you can do it yourself or if you want me to help, just let me know.

[The red-wing blackbird then suddenly zooms above Jason and lands near his bookshelf. Jason looks back at his pet mildly annoyed before turning back to the camera]

And don’t mind Steinbeak if you drop by. He likes his spaces.

Action Prompt:

[If you do decide to visit Grease Lightning, you can indeed find Jason and Steinbeak around. Jason’s either doing maintenance work on his motorcycle or he’s reading one of his books in the corner of the shop.

Meanwhile his pet bird Steinbeak is either just outside of the shop or has settled himself indoors and looking at any visitors]

[ Dylan remembers Jay from the train adventure. It's been a while since they spoke, since Dylan had a solo mission before the Fae Realm excursion, and Dylan had been keeping to himself before that. But he's seen Jay around.

Having done some minor mechanic work on aforementioned train adventure, he's... curious. He makes his way to the shop and lingers in the entryway, hands stuffed in his pockets as he takes in the scenery. ]

Looks like congratulations are in order.

[leastdramatic]

[At the moment, Jason is about to change his motorcycle's tires. The vesicle is already jacked on a platform. Since there isn't much else going on, he hears Dylan walking and lingering by the entrance]

Yo. Need something?

[His tone is casual and easy. He remembers Dylan a while back and from an earlier mission. He seemed like a good kid]

[leastdramatic]

It was a bit overdue. Had the place for a while but Auriel sidetracked things.

[sophielicious]

i have a maybach that i stole from earth. maybe its time we check it.

[leastdramatic]

Seriously? I definitely want a look at that

[sophielicious]

seriously. with the champagne compartment and everything.

[leastdramatic]

Nice. That thing better be a beauty then. How'd it happen?

[sophielicious]

what do you mean

i just overshopped and i didnt want to carry all that back to etraya so i just took the car packed all my shit in there and drove through the portal

very simple

[leastdramatic]

Ha. Wish I had thought of that. Maybe next time

[ Gladio's curious about the garage, more so now that he's got something that will need some maintenance every once in a while. In fact, he's bringing it by now because he wants it looked at by someone who knows a little more about it than he does before he takes it out for anything longer than a trip through the city.

Cutting the engine and kicking out the stand, Gladio walks towards the doors of the garage. ]

Saw that post of yours. I was hoping you had a minute.

[her_own_rules]

The original owner?

private

[sophielicious]

... so, speaking of vehicles. we got a teen here in the mutant side that really likes motorcycles.

so i'm looking for someone to teach him. also looking for a way to get a motorcycle before i go pouting to aurora. recs?

[leastdramatic]

Gorgug seems to be gone now. We were teammates on one of my very first missions. It was a good time

[leastdramatic]

If me not having powers isn't an issue, I can teach him.

You might have a chance scrounging up parts from the junkyard but it might take a while. I only got mine because it was a prize I won after a mission

[leastdramatic]

[Jason was in the middle of polishing his motorcycle when had heard the Gladio's bike rumble and getting closer. There haven't been too many motorcycle riders in Etraya so far so he was already curious to see who it was. He walks over as Gladio parks]

Sure. Whaddya want?

[Already, Jason's eyes focus on the motorcycle and his curiosity deepens. It doesn't appear to be any model he's familiar with]

[welcome_summer]

What an acquisition, congrats! Needs some more shelving

[sophielicious]

if us being mutants isn't an issue, i'm fine with it.

sooobbing to aurora it is.

[ There's a brief pause to that. One that at this distance, in this mode of communication, is likely lost entirely, without being able to see it. But it's there. Turnover here isn't new—their family knows it quite well—but still. ]

How long has he been gone now?

[leastdramatic]

Yeah, I don't care about that mutant stuff. What's their name?

Oof. Good luck. Maybe she'll be nice for the holidays.

[leastdramatic]

A couple of months now. He was already gone for a while before the Auriel mission.

[sophielicious]

good. human?

his name is scott summers.

i'm not really a fan, she can be a bitch or nice, i'm not impressed.

[leastdramatic]

Thanks. Maybe I should have a little library corner to myself?

[leastdramatic]

Yup. Just a normal human who likes books and cars

Got it. Just let him know he can get in touch with me anytime

At least she hasn't left us behind after a mission. So far.

sorry.......

[sophielicious]

yeah so jsyk? i did not buy it but ok whatever next time just say yup not your tinder profile

will do

im gonna die mad about that fog mission so really that doesnt earn her points.
