A Hazy Shade of Winter

[Brian]

You're looking at a 5 mile detour to look at the crater.

[Rezantis]

Rez is bouncing up and down like a little kid.  You question whether or not you should be taking him seriously, since he did drink a lot of sugar-containing beverages back at the Tex-Mex.

[Brian]

Ginrai contributes his two cents:  "You know, Albuquerque wasn't that spectacular, even if it was at 4:00 AM.  I'd like to at least see something kinda cool."

[Dracos]

"Roight, my car, you two are both bloody drunk." Dracos directs them along the correct route, ignoring the stupid ad.

Dracos

[Rezantis]

"Awwwwww!"

Rez whines for a sec, then goes back to singing.

o/' "Headin' into twilight, spreadin' out her wings tonight," o/'
o/' "he got you jumpin' off the track, and shovin' into overdrive," o/'

[Brian]

Ginrai rolls his eyes in the back seat, and tinkers with his laptop for a bit.  But you haven't been to a hotel in a while, and his batteries are low, so he puts it away.  "Say," he suddenly asks.  "Do we know how to get to the place Ayame mentioned?"  At about this point, the triangulation detection warning kicks in again.

[Rezantis]

"That's what navigator-boy is for."

Rez turns his phone off.

[Dracos]

Dracos makes sure all phones are off.

"There be no road I cannae navigate!"

Dracos

[Brian]

"Not Navigator-boy," Ginrai chides.  "The hero of legend, NAVIGA-TOR!"

[Rezantis]

"Pah!"

Rez continues driving - until they either reach a town that might have a department or luggage store (since he forgot in the last dump) or someone else takes the damn wheel off him.  One or the other.

[Dracos]

"This is the Navigator.  Taking off.  Anyhow, enough silliness..."

Dracos lies back, paying the necessary attention as Rez keeps driving to california.

[Brian]

The next major town you encounter is Flagstaff.  If they don't have stores, probably no one will.

[Rezantis]

"Exxxxcellent."

Rez pulls in to a shopping center with a department store.

"Ginrai, you are . . . minding da car again.  Dracos, you're coming with me."

[Dracos]

Dracos grumbles and gets up, "I'm just a bloody pocket book to ya, aren't I bloody aussie."

Follows Rez into the department store.

Dracos

[Rezantis]

"Hey, I brought some money.  You just, like, have more.  And you can carry stuff."

Rez, Dracos tagging along behind, heads into the store and goes looking for the luggage section.
