Date & Time: Noon of 3/28
Location: Abandoned school parking lot out in the city!!
Characters: Bariyan ([personal profile] stonefaith), Martin Darkov ([personal profile] theguideless)
Summary: More driving shenanigans! More driving shenanigans gone WRONG.
Warnings: watch out there's a darkov behind the wheel




Bariyan was beginning to feel just a little bit hopeful about Martin's driving lessons. The kid was doing all right now. He could sort of navigate his way around the parking lot, at least. Bariyan still wouldn't trust him to, say, try and maneuver his way up a mountain road while being chased by overpowered masked freaks. But Bariyan didn't exactly trust himself to do that sort of thing either.

After their last lesson, he'd told Martin to meet him at the parking lot again, today, at noon. Bariyan had arrived much earlier than that, mostly on account of having little else to do. He'd spent the last fifteen minutes or so lounging against the hood of the sedan watching the clouds make their slow roll across the sky and thinking idle thoughts.

He liked having the lessons. He was just trying to decide what it was that he liked about them: the teaching, the car, the way that time suddenly passed much faster, or maybe even Martin's company. Or all of them? In any case, it was a rather odd feeling. In all the time since his resurrection, this was the first time he'd ever felt anything but hollow misery.

Martin left without another word of protest. Or much word of anything. Dismissed, still of no use to anyone, he was too tired and too sad to even want to try to contest it.

Sorry? Why? It never really clicked when people apologized to him. Maybe it never would. Or should.

It wasn't something he thought on too hard at the time; he had to watch where he was going and look for the right building with the right stairs. Then...then he had to hope the people he shared space with were out enjoying that awful, too-bright day, so he could hide without any question or possibility of words. He was spent on them.
