So, driving a car. That's not that difficult, right? Not looking at the amount of A-holes on the road these days.

	Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. Some people just like to drive like they're in Nascar. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah, figured it couldn't be harder thatn flying a ship. Just, different. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I dunno. Last time I tried, I was nearly mauled to death by a tree. Course the car did fly. Badly. The kind you lot have here don't do that. But the wheel bit is still sort of tricky, yeah? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	How the hell did you end up nearly mauled to death by a tree. More's the pity. Flying I can do. Been doing it for almost my whole damn life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Whomping Willow. Doesn't much care for anyone being near it. What on? Not a broom, I expect? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No. Space ship. It's pretty awesome too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merlinspants 2015-02-28 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	Those are the much, much bigger flying cars? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	halfterran 2015-03-01 01:21 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, something like that. Just 100 times more awesome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merlinspants 2015-03-02 01:52 pm UTC (link)
	How're they more awesome, then? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'd heard about that car. Any chance you'd know the exact charms that were used to make it fly? ~~Might be nice to have one~~ I understand Hagrid had a flying motorcycle as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merlinspants 2015-02-28 09:23 am UTC (link)
	I could take a guess at it, but I expect it'd be off. Dad spent loads of time messing with it before we took it in the air. It's probably got loads of charms on it, honestly. Maybe Hermione could sort it out? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-28 09:56 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, that makes sense that it may have more than one charms. If that could be duplicated here.. then that would be quite interesting to see. I think she could sort it too, so I'll ask her about it soon after my patrol is finished today. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merlinspants 2015-02-28 06:17 pm UTC (link)
	Brilliant as it'd be to see a flying car up in the air again, I'd be careful about how you go about making use of it when Hermione sorts that out. We don't need Muggles crashing into things more than they already do. But I expect Hermione'll give you a big lecture about that herself, so I'll leave it at that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-03-02 07:12 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, wouldn't want that. Have you seen how bad some of these drivers are? Terrible, really. Okay. Well.. thanks again. I'll contact her soon. ~~Can already imagine the lecture but at least it's usually a logical one when she lectures~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merlinspants 2015-03-02 01:53 pm UTC (link)
	Was nearly mowed over a few weeks back by a fellow who wouldn't get off his phone. I expect those are probably bad for driving. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-03-03 09:22 am UTC (link)
	~~How typical of the American m~~ Ah, right. Their.. cellphones, as they call them. Surprised there aren't more accidents caused than there already were from that. Certainly wouldn't see us trying to send off an owl post while broom flying, that's for sure. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	captcasanova 2015-02-27 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Not really. Motorcycles are better, though. Jerks in traffic aren't as much of an issue. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	halfterran 2015-02-27 12:40 pm UTC (link)
	Really? How's that work out then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captcasanova 2015-02-27 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	There's a slightly different set of laws that motorcyclists have to follow. It's easier for us to weave in and out of traffic, and at the lights we can wait in between lanes. When the weather's better I'm usually on my motorcycle as opposed to my car because I like the freedom it gives me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	halfterran 2015-02-27 11:25 pm UTC (link)
	Cool. Thanks man. I'll look into it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-28 07:32 am UTC (link)
	I'd think I might prefer motorcycles just for that reason. And easier to maneuver through traffic than a car. ~~Brooms are still faster though~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captcasanova 2015-02-28 07:39 am UTC (link)
	I love mine when the weather's better. I have a 2014 Star Motorcycles Raider SCL and it's a thing of beauty. It actually handles better than my Harley did. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-28 08:08 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, that does seem like a nice one. I think if I were to pick a bike for myself, it'd be something sleek yet.. fast. Definitely fast. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	captcasanova 2015-02-28 08:12 am UTC (link)
	You probably want to look at an import, then. Kawasaki and Yamaha are good brands to start with. I considered them but ended up going with a more classic looking one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-28 08:42 am UTC (link)
	Kawasaki, Yamaha. Got it. Sounds Japanese but I guess they make a lot of good stuff. I'll check it out soon. Ohh, maybe I'll find some that are green and silver colors. Know any shops around here that sell them at a reasonable price? I'd never actually went to search for one before so it's new territory for me. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-27 07:15 am UTC (link)
	I don't think I've driven yet. A broom, but no car. Though.. I'm thinking I really like motorcycles, that looks really brilliant to ride in the city. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	halfterran 2015-02-27 12:41 pm UTC (link)
	Wait. What? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-02-27 05:52 pm UTC (link)
	I'm a wizard. Scorpius Malfoy, from the HP books. I can do magic and fly on brooms. We have a magic sport that we play too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	halfterran 2015-02-27 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	What? Like Merlin? What the hell are HP books, man? I left Earth in the 80's. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

~~Oh, I totally wish I was like Merlin~~ Sort of. Not nearly as powerful, but still similar to it. My kind uses wands to do magic, and we can teleport too.

Ah.. right, sorry. HP is Harry Potter. It's a series of books about a wizard hero in my world, fighting an evil overlord, living in a castle school, stuff like that. They made eight movies about the series too.

	Weird. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	betterthanmost 2015-03-02 07:15 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I had heard that on occasion. Probably weirder worlds out there. So you spent time in space? I bet there's a lot of interesting aliens and planets that you'd ran into. (Reply to this) (Parent)
