I know some of us got new memories back last time when we reached the next layer.
So maybe there's a lot on your mind, and um...
Would anyone like to go for a drive?
I find it helps to clear my head.
But in Invidia, I think.
The cars here in Avaritia are really expensive...

But they're easy to rent in Invidia if you trade for it.
Avaritia seems to mostly want money...
no subject
A while ago, I remembered how to operate one.

Were you familiar with cars in your life, Chiron?
no subject
I could pilot an ornithopter too, but I don't think we'd find one down here. 😜

Horse and buggy and wagon also existed, though perhaps that was merely out in the most rural areas.
no subject
I don't think a lot of people were comfortable with cars... They were still fairly recent inventions.

The most common air transport in Steel London is the dirigible, which is an enormous balloon-like craft.
But my friend Impey built an ornithopter that flies by flapping its wings like a bird. It was amazing to see the view from inside it.

I think Father's achievements happened not too long before I was born, or perhaps when I was still very young.
And I was, um... Maybe 20? Do I seem 20 years old?

It's fun to see places from a new perspective, too.

rather subjective in this afterlife
AND! We don't even know if what we appear as correlates to our age of death!

It would be strange to suddenly learn that I'm actually much older than I think I am now...
no subject
But you'd still be cute as a button no matter what!
no subject
Is it something you just remembered you could do? :)

My friends taught me a lot of skills when I was alive. I only just remembered another, so it seems like I'm still getting them all back. ୧( ˵ ° ~ ° ˵ )୨

I always thought you were like Saint-Germain, but you're worse. 😤

There's no harm in checking, is there? We can just take a drive around and see if everything is still the same.

I know it's sad to be apart from them, but it's almost like they're still doing what they can to help you even when you're here.
Oh, that's a bit sad to be thinking about now... I'm sorry.
What I meant to talk you about was
Could I come and take a ride with you?
I don't think I've been in a car before.
Or rather, I don't remember being in one... for obvious reasons.
no subject
The two of you together would certainly be something.
I'm sure you would have gotten along with him most, of all my friends.

But I'd like to accept.

i wonder if driving would be a skill someone retains like running or writing, or one we'd have to regain or relearn before using.....
i can't work as a test case, though :(
i don't know if i knew how to drive before or not
no subject
It was a skill I regained. Back in Invidia, I remembered my friend who had taught me to drive, and when I did, I suddenly knew how to do it again.
I definitely didn't know before then.
no subject
I'd be happy to take you. It would be good for us to spend some time together and get to know each other better.

But I still don't think it's wrong to take that risk.
I want to give everyone a chance.
no subject
....can you teach me??
i'm kind of curious what it's like now
no subject
Where should we meet?
no subject
Okay. I'll try.
