8th Meal Served [Action]

[yuzuru_no_mai]

[There's a bit of commotion on Taylor Road. Iroha's been working in the garden, doing just about everything in her power to landscape properly. Now the front yard is starting to look like a proper yard, complete with bushes, flower beds, and trimmed trees.

Don't be surprised if you see her running to the backyard, where she's planning to put in a vegetable garden]

-AND HE SITS. FIDGETING.-

*When she comes down, she's dressed in a nice dress with a sweater over it. It doesn't do much to cover her generous chest*

I did not mean to keep you waiting, Ron.

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

-Man he doesn't even care. The whole package was beautiful.-

W-whoa...

It's perfectly alright, Iroha. I'll drive us there, if you don't mind.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

All right-

What's "drive"?

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

You know... a car?

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

A car? What is a car?

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

Hooboy... this may take awhile.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

*She looks at Ron oddly, but nods*

All right...

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

You see, a car is another word for an automobile. It uses an internal combustion engine to... make with the go.

*Lost Iroha is lost.*

Um... I don't know what an engine is, either.

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

Let's just... show via demonstration.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

All right.

*She's obviously curious about these wondrous modes of transportation known as cars. She takes Soldier's arm and walks with him*

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

-And out they go to Soldier's car! And what a fine automobile it is! Look at all that American Chrome!-

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Th-this is a car... how... strange...

*like a curious child, Iroha marvels at the clean, shiny surface. She wants to touch it, but is deathly afraid*

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

-1957 Chevy hard top, deep red, and the apple of Soldier's eye as he opens the door on the passenger side.-

After you.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

*Iroha just looks at him for a moment, still reveling over the large "car". When Soldier opens the door, she climbs in, more interested now in the interior*

Such an amazing creation... did you build this, Ron?

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

Oh I wish. I just drive it and clean it.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

*Eventually, Iroha sits down in the passenger seat. Such a sight to behold... this is indeed the future*

And you use this for transportation? We usually use horses.

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

Think of it like a carriage. Sans horses. And horse shit.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

*Iroha giggles a little. She's also not used to modern curse words. But his explanation made sense*

Is it faster than a carriage?

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

-He starts up the car, that eight cylinder engine roaring to life.-

Darling, this thing is faster than anything you've ever seen.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Oh... my...

*The start of the engine makes her heart race. It sounds frightening, but exciting at the same time. She tries to hold still as the car roars*

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

-And away they go!

... At a reasonable speed. For now.-
