49 - Action/Phone

[ceasetoexist]

[Well, Pokey wasn't really expecting a regain again, considering he couldn't think of much he had left that the town could give. Even less that he could possibly want. So he wasn't exactly ecstatic when he opened the small envelope.

And just stared for a moment at the picture for a moment, frowning. It isn't much longer before there's a horrible crashing sound, as an absolutely totaled helicopter appears on the front lawn of 502 Ricardo Street, now neatly embedded in one of the trees on the lawn. Pokey just takes a moment to move between scowling at it and nearly laughing.]

Well. That figures. Got you back the way I left you, huh?

[Action

[If you're passing by 502 Ricardo Street, feel free to notice the utterly destroyed helicopter sitting on the front lawn, as well as the kid crawling around it with a toolbox. He seems to be trying to figure out some way to repair it, but he's struggling. Pokey more or less seems to really just be fiddling with things, than actually making any real effort to bother fixing it.

Bug him?]

[Phone - Locked to kids who had been in the KND]

Hey. Geniuses. If you're still here, and you're still interested in the KND or not, I need to talk to you right now. I need to know who's still in and who's out, because we need to get things organized again. You want out, that's fine, but if you're still with it on this then we need to get things moving, and I need to know.

[Whenever Pokey looks up from trying to repair what he can of the crippled helicopter, he won't miss the face peering in at him through what had once been a window. Slugger is wearing his usual smirk and, after eyeing the battered machine, starts with the unnecessary remarks.]

What a junker.

[Pokey just snorts a bit as he looks back at the other boy.]

You're telling me. Piece of crap isn't worth the metal it was made out of.

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

[He would lean on it but it looks as if it'd fall apart. Which would be okay with him if Pokey wasn't inside.]

How did it get like this?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Let me just say this.

You wanna guess how easy it is to pilot a helicopter in near complete darkness?

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

It doesn't have lights?

[Slugger steps back to get a better view of the helicopter. He's pretty sure helicopters are supposed to have lamps on them so they can fly at night.]

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Not strong enough to cut through the darkness. It isn't just natural darkness. And I ended up getting into an area so clogged with trees it wouldn't have mattered anyway.

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

[Trees? Unnatural darkness? His smirk fades as he really begins to consider the condition of the machine.]

...How did you live?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

[Pokey thinks about it for a moment. Staring at the machine, and frowning. Really, it was kind of a blur after he the crash. But he knows the answer. And he won't bullcrap about it. At least, not to Slugger.]

Luck, mainly.

And Giygas' aid.

[strike-you-out.livejournal.com]

[Quietly, Slugger rests his palm on the nose of the helicopter. So the monster had kept Pokey alive... for its own purposes, he's sure, but even so.]


If you fix it, will you fly it again?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

[Pokey shrugs, before smirking a bit.]

When I fix it, yeah it will.

[So okay, it's definitely an if, but like hell he'll say that to you.]
