The issue of the double chainsaw vespa
Harry had been working with Pippi for a bit now, and was starting to understand how things worked. Still, people kept telling him he underestimated the insanity she could come up with unsupervised. That seemed a bit mean to him to be honest, Pippi was smart, and really wanted to help people, and she did have logic, her logic was just not exactly the same as most people's. But stuff she did still had sense to it once you figured out how Pippi thought of things. So Harry maintained that Pippi really didn't need 'supervision', at least not to the extent everyone seemed to think. She just needed help with helping others and making sure it was the sort of help they'd want and appreciate. Besides, people had their strengths, everyday detail stuff wasn't hers was all, and that's why she needed a handler (though he still thought the title wasn't quite right).
Still...in the face of what he was looking at right now, Harry was starting to think that maybe she needed even more help with that whole helping others thing than he'd originally thought. No, he was not going to agree with the majority and say she needed supervision, but someone certainly needed to help her so these sorts of ideas didn't see the light of day.
"Umm...I don't think...I mean...I...it's umm...probably not legal to drive that anywhere..."
He wasn't sure how this had happened, but someone or some organization decided to gift Pippi with a vespa complete with whatever customization she wanted. His own schedule had conflicted with the meeting to discuss what custom add-ons she wanted, but he had contacted the, very obliging it seemed now, people to say if there was any trouble or help was needed, they could contact him. They hadn't though. Well...they had, but only to say when it'd be ready. But that odd joke about 'cutting through traffic' made sense now. He'd thought Pippi had just requested a lot of indigo or pink, with animal decorations or something. Harmless and matching most of her stuff. He had not expected...That.
Harry again blinked and rubbed his eyes at the vespa with chainsaws coming out on either side. What had he gotten himself into?
