ROAD TRIP

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

It was a freaking gorgeous day out on Zokez II, and even though it was all islands, there was some open road. Dean did a last check over on the Impala, making sure everything looked good.

He then yelled to the others, "Come on, we're burning daylight here, let's go."

Riding around in the Impala

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

As soon as everybody was situated, Dean immediately grabbed his tape deck, plugged one into the stereo. He then started up the car, and the purr of the engine could be heard for a moment. And then the start of Panama by Van Halen started blasting from the speakers.

Sam was so, so happy that someone else stepped up to drive the Mystery Machine. Sure, there was part of him that kind of wanted to. But the rest of him wanted to be right where he was: shotgun in the Impala.

Even if he groaned at Dean's choice of music, it was with a smile.

Rhiow leapt up into the car easily, landing in Sam's lap and curling up into a snug ball. "Is that noise supposed to be music?" she asked, her ears laying out sideways.

Cas as usual was sat in the back. For some reason though, today the separation was getting to him, so he leaned forward, draping his arms over the back of the front seat, and resting his chin there, between Sam and Dean.

"I like it," he finally said after a minute. "It is ... familiar."

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

Dean did turn it down slightly for Rhiow's sake, but he then smirked as he started to pull out onto the road. He paused to make sure the van was going to keep up with them.

"See, Cas thinks my music is awesome."

[chosenfamily]

"No, Cas thinks your music is familiar. It's not like he's heard much of anything else." Since Cas hung around with them on Earth even before he was human. Sam scritched Rhiow behind the ears and grinned. "But I guess it works. For now."

[on_errantry]

"It sounds like a chorus of toms screaming," Rhiow said, leaning into the scritches. "That's only appealing when you're in heat, and even then, it's not excessively appealing."

She appreciated the volume change, really. It didn't hurt her ears quite so badly now. "Not that I would actually know."

[angel-ofthe.livejournal.com]

Cas frowned at Sam. "I said I liked it," he protested.

Mystery Machine on the road

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

Who knows, there might be still be some pot hidden in the seats from its last adventure in the hangar. At very least the seats had an interesting uh aroma to them?

[governorkang]

There was more than enough room for Kang's wings in the van, and he immediately claimed the passenger seat, snout wrinkling slightly at the lingering smell. That window was definitely going to be staying open.

He already knew the half-elf, but he didn't know the person that was apparently driving. Holding out his hand in greeting, he introduced himself, "Name's Kang."

[notmannotelf.livejournal.com]

Tanis mumbled something about the smell reminding him of a certain herbal shop in Thobordin but climbed in anyway. "Tanis," May as well introduce himself to the driver.

[modelscientist.livejournal.com]

Mordin nodded at Kang and reached out to shake hands. A custom he'd picked up from humans, naturally. Still a bit odd to him, but he took it in stride.

"Doctor Mordin Solus. Pleasure to meet you both." He's actually rather enjoying driving the primitive vehicle. It's rather exhilarating to have the wind brushing over you as you drive at fairly high speed for a ground vehicle. Plus keeping the window down would get rid of that pungent smell...

[governorkang]

"You as well. I'm glad neither of us is having to learn how to drive on the spot. It probably wouldn't go well," Kang chuckled, relaxing in his seat. "Feels good to be out of Stacy and on an actual world."

Turning his head, he looked back at Tanis with a grin, "And here, we can actually eat some real meat."

[notmannotelf.livejournal.com]

"I still wouldn't mind to learn how to drive at some point. Might be interesting." He did grin at the thought of real food though.

"And that's something I'd die for!"

[modelscientist.livejournal.com]

"Driving nto difficult. Merely takes practice." Mordin replied, leaning over to fiddle with the primitive radio for a moment. Hmm. Nothing happened. Alas, no music.

"Must agree that being on actual planet is most refreshing. Thought of real food also raises spirits."

[governorkang]

Kang smiled, "I'm interested in learning, too. Never know when it might come in handy." He rested his arm on the edge of the window and leaned so that his head was partially out. Oh, that helped. Much better than Stacy or the inside of the van.

BEER, BOOZE, BURGERS (Possibly also BOOBS?)

[notadamnangel.livejournal.com]

Like any good tourist place, the planet had its share of night clubs, bars and dives for thirsty travelers. More importantly, there was food. Lots of greasy, fried food.

Operation Embarrass Rhiow (and Kang)

[on_errantry]

They had left the club - Rhiow was certainly glad for that. Her species could be shameless sometimes, but such a display was almost mortifying. She supposed she should be glad that the ehhif were clearly moving beyond their ridiculous prudishness when it came to anything sexual ever, but it reminded her almost of a new wizard bending the rules just because they could.

Nevertheless, the walk outside was extremely pleasant. The ocean covering the world meant that there was a lovely sea breeze floating over them - one that reminded Rhiow of home. She breathed in deeply and her tail was up high as she trotted to keep up with the bipeds' strides.

The park they came to was nice - not exactly secluded and not empty, but not horribly crowded. There was a clearing under a tree, which Rhiow immediately went to sharpen her claws on, breathing in the night air.

Suddenly, she sneezed. There was a thread of scent teasing at her nose that absolutely had to be investigated. Where was it? It had to be around here - ah there! Near the base of the tree was a patch of catnip. Now it was a patch of catnip with a black cat rolling around in it, her ears twitching madly and her pupils slowly growing in size.

"Ahhhhh," she said, more of a murring, purring sound than anything else.

[OOC: Let the Embarrass The Crap Out Of Rhiow thread begin! Reactions to the normally mature and staid kitty flipping out like a hyperactive kitten are more than welcome. Also, it's been established that a vid shows up on the omnicomms eventually so... at least one character should be filming this.]

Re: Operation Embarrass Rhiow (and Kang)

[governorkang]

Kang was more than glad to have left that club as well. He hadn't wanted to go in the first place, not being attracted to females of other races being only one of the reasons, but Dean had insisted, and had even attempted to purchase him something called a lapdance, saying that he needed to get laid.

He'd refused, telling the woman (What was her name again? Candy?) that she could keep the money; he was not interested, and he had a mate.

At least the beer had been decent.

The bozak took a deep breath, enjoying air that didn't smell like smoke and other annoying things, and grinned from his spot sitting underneath a tree, watching Rhiow. "Having fun?"

Re: Operation Embarrass Rhiow (and Kang)

[on_errantry]

"Mrrrrrrrrrryes," Rhiow said. She had flipped over and was gnawing on one of the catnip plants, her tail twitching like she was about to pounce something.

Pounce something like... POUNCE ON KANG'S TAIL. Yes, there are claws.

Re: Operation Embarrass Rhiow (and Kang)

[governorkang]

What was she... oh. Thank you, scales. There were still some scars on the tip of his tail from the Nightmare King mess, but they weren't painful. The pouncing reminded him of his hatchlings; they would do it on occasion, when they were feeling particularly playful.

"What's gotten into you? I've never seen you act like this."

[on_errantry]

"Oh Queen Iau, Hh'an this is going to be so embarrassing but I think I'm high."

Then her ears twitched a few times, she sneezed, and flopped over onto her back in the middle of the catnip patch. "It's this stuff, I mean it smells wonderful and it makes everything else smell wonderful and - are there any cheeseburgers left?"

There was a very hopeful note in her voice.

[governorkang]

"You're behaving like a hatchling, with the pouncing." Laughing, Kang twitched the end of his tail, knowing that Rhiow would see it, "What is it, exactly? And no, we ate all of the cheeseburgers already. Can you even eat the bread?" He'd never seen a cat eat anything but meat before.

[on_errantry]

To Rhiow, it looked like his tail left a streamer of color in the air after he moved it - she batted at the streamer and missed. Normally she would have been excessively embarrassed but right now? Not so much with the caring. "I can't digest gluten so no bread but I really don't care because I can eat the cheese and the sauce is amazing and also ehhif invent the best foods, they should just invent food and do nothing else, everything would be awesome."

She pounced at the tail again, her ears pricked forward. "Do you have catnip on your world? I've only had it twice before but it does this every time and I'm going to feel really silly in the morning but right now is fun!"

[governorkang]

Oh yeah, Rhiow was high as a kite. Kang grinned, twitching his tail again, and then paused, getting an idea. He extended one wing, lifting it up as high as he could, and moved it as well, so that the tips of the digits danced across her vision. "We might. I don't really know; it's the first I've encountered it. I'd recognize a scent like that."

He was beginning to feel a little... mellow. Relaxed. Normally, when he was drunk, he was very sociable (Get enough in him and he'd belt out dirty tavern songs. Badly.), and physically affectionate with those that he considered friends, something that Fonrar liked to tease him about.
