A difficult lesson to learn in the moment, but yes. Vulnerability can be a very good thing.

From:

weirdnecro

It really is.

But you know what this also means? I deserve head pats and praise.

Also, help brainstorming.

From:

heyboss

What are we brainstorming?

From:

weirdnecro

Hobbies.

From:

heyboss

I don't follow.

From:

weirdnecro

Because you don't know what's going in my head. Right.

So, Sam made the suggestion that I do something...new. Or different, because a lot of what I have is...wrapped up in this role I've given myself.

I've got a month to find something that'll be...less big scary necromancer wrapped, and more what I like wrapped.

So. Hobbies.

From:

heyboss

Ah! Alright.

Well, hobbies are easier with friends. So maybe ask to join your friends in their hobbies.

From:

weirdnecro

See, so thats the fun part.

Les? What are your hobbies outside of working your ass to the bone?

From:

heyboss

Hm.

Listening to music, driving cars, reading.

I am a simple man.

From:

weirdnecro

Well, we do have extensive music...and I have meant to steal some of your books.

You drive in the Enclosure?

From:

heyboss

Steal away.

And yes. I like to keep my skills up.

...with fast cars.

From:

weirdnecro

I'll offer my collection back. Bunch of non fic, but got some novels too.

...fast cars?

Mind showing me?

From:

heyboss

I don't mind at all. When are you free?

From:

weirdnecro

Oh, about now if you'd like. Meet you at the Enclosure?

From:

heyboss

Let me find my shoes and I'll join you there.

From:

weirdnecro

Great!

Though really, you don't have to wear shoes. Shoeless is great!

From:

heyboss

He meets her by the door with a laugh.

He is wearing shoes.

"Some of us like the constraints of some social norms," he points out. "Besides, God knows what's on these floors."

From:

weirdnecro

"Fair. I mean, I have no idea if the floors are regularly washed."

She was also wearing shoes.

"But one day, we're gonna get you into something breezy. Free your toes a bit." She was teasing at least, all play and no bite.

From:

heyboss

"Why would you subject anyone to that?"

He unlocks the door and programs the Enclosure quietly, leading her down the stairs and out to a breezy road that runs the curved perimeter of a large island with a mountain right in the middle.

"I like to have something to look at," he explains.

From:

weirdnecro

"For funsies."

She told him, grinning. Sokie followed him into the Enclosure, making a soft, appreciative noise, leaning against him briefly as she took in the view.

"It's nice. I like it- and maybe I'll have to make some suggestions if we do this again?"

From:

heyboss

"I am not taking criticism at this time," he teases and takes the steps down to a small garage, which he leads her around and reveals -

Sheehan has discovered muscle cars.

"What do you think? She's a beauty, huh?"

There are very few things that make Sheehan light up like he's doing now.

From:

weirdnecro

"Pfffft. You deserve shorts and sandals."

She would have said more but seeing the car, her eyes gleamed. Oh....

Nice.

"Les? I want this car."

From:

heyboss

He plucks the keys from a peg on the side of the garage and grins. "You can drive next."

He opens the door and waves her in.

From:

weirdnecro

"You're my best friend." She declared.

"So long as you keep that promise." She grinned, and with a bounce in her step, slid into the seat.

From:

heyboss

"I know," he grins and starts the car, revving it with a happy sigh. He eases out of the garage and onto the road.

"Hang on. If you get hurt, Arthur will kill me."

He isn't worried about it, though, and he certainly doesn't care about seatbelts.

Damn nanny laws.

The 1971 Corvette can reach 60 mph in 6 seconds and runs a 14 second quarter mile. Once they're on the road, Sheehan does his best to demonstrate those two facts.
