My girlfriend's told me there are other people here who used to be cars. Is that true?

	Well if you're any good with a wrench or an airbrush you're welcome to come help out at the shop sometime. I'm the boss, I get to make that kind of decision. It's pretty awesome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laughs I can't say I've ever worked on a car before, Che. I wonder if I could translate my knowledge of being a car to repair work. But thank you for the offer. I'll keep it in mind, boss. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's pretty much how I do it, actually. Go by sound, vibrations, whatever. I think having been sentient as a car helps too. Can tell the difference between a slipped belt and a stripped gear because I know what it's like to have one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess I won't know until I try. It's not like I don't know how everything works and where it goes. This could be a fit. It's such a relief to be able to talk to another car. Even if we're both humans, now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know exactly what you mean. Sure, talking to people who know about cars is close, but it's ... really not the same. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not really, no. It's difficult being so different from the people around you. I'm glad I'm not alone in that regard anymore. Che... is it possible to meet in person somewhere? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sure. I'm in London, live with the boys, though I do have a place of my own, and there's always the shop. There's also a really good pizza place not too far from home. I pretty much walk everywhere, don't know how to drive, and riding is still a little weird. Did you have anywhere in particular in mind? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I could teach you how to drive at some point, if you like. I definitely know what you mean about riding in another car.

Pizza sounds good. Hattie and I are in London, too. We're not familiar with the area, so we'll follow your lead on that one. It will be nice to meet with you, Che. After talking like this, I'm looking forward to it. Is there a good time for you?

	See, the best part about being the boss is that I get to make the schedule. How's lunch sound? Tomorrow or the next day? The pizzeria is at [address] I can give you actual directions if you need them. (ooc: sleeps is good, I should have some of those too. Thread's set up, just tag whenever, I'll be around after work ^_^ ) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	It's 3 AM here, so I'm going to head out, but I'll be around tomorrow if you want to set something up. Thanks for the convo - he's starting to feel better about being here. :) (Reply to this) (Parent)
