Eigth Wind [Action + Phone]

[bantorain]

-Virginia is coming off of her droning as if waking from a long long nap. She doesn't pay mind to the fact that her house if full of drones at the moment. In fact, they seem to just leave tired mommy alone as she stumbles about in the house. As if to confirm to herself that she was, in fact, still in mayfield, she steps outside in the shining evening sun. The heat, even amongst the slight chilly wind, is familiar to her. It almost felt like the desert for a moment. In fact, she could swear she just heard the sound of Quicksilver snorting.

... And again...

Wait... There's a white horse... grazing on the daffodils she tried so hard to plant.

Her scream is loud enough to startle Quicksilver and just about anyone in ear shot.-



-Sometime later, over the phones-

...

Erm...

...

Um, does anyone want to help me convert the garage into a stable? My horse is here and she needs somewhere to stay.

Is it really? That's a shame...

Automobiles and the train system were the main modes of transportation during the war. However, since the end of the war, both are now rarely used. [Well, except for the military train that the Congressional Knights use... but she doesn't need to know that]

Is traveling by horse still common then for your time period?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

We've trains back home too, as well as sand cruisers. But generally the most efficient way to get between towns is on horseback.

[He nods and stays silent again for a moment]

...Where are you going to keep your horse at?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I'll need to build a stable for her.

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

The local hardware store will have the necessary supplies.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

If only. They won't let me shop there.

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

For what reason?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Because I'm a woman! It's so ridiculous!

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

And you're unable to convince the store clerk in allowing you to buy items?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

It's sexism, plain and simple.

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

That appears to be the case.

...Do you have someone else to buy the necessary materials?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Not really...

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

...If required, I'll buy the items that you need.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Will you really?

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

Yes, since you're unable to obtain them through uncontrollable circumstances.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

... Thank you. That actually means a lot to me.

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

Just provide me with the list of needed items.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

No problem! I'll get it together as quick as I can!

[nameofexorcist.livejournal.com]

Alright, contact me when you have it ready.
