I'm looking for a driving instructor.


Willing to pay for someone with expertise and discretion. I have the car.

[looking_sharp]

I can just drive you.

[ambitiousblond]

You could but it shouldn't be that difficult to learn.

[looking_sharp]

Learn? No. Master? Yes.

Survive? Whole different problem.

[disasterstraight]

There are schools that teach driving. I have found one in Heropa which allows imPort students, regardless of age or experience level.

[soldierpuppy]

Hunh. People don't know how to drive? I thought that was one of the first things people learned as soon as they were tall enough to see over the steering wheel.

I don't mind teaching you!

[ambitiousblond]

My guardians considered me 'irresponsible' and 'a menace to public safety' after I half ran someone over so I wasn't allowed to drive.

I'm making up for lost time now.

[ambitiousblond]

That sounds like it involves more than just an afternoon lesson.

And a lot of unnecessary paperwork.

[Driver's license? sounds fake.]

[soldierpuppy]

Well that just shows they were a bad teacher, not that you were bad at driving.

Shouldn't be too hard to show you how to drive though! You'll be going around the country like it's nothing in no time with me teaching you.

[ambitiousblond]

It seems like you have a great deal of experience.

What would you want in return?

[ambitiousblond]

Perhaps you could teach me then. I have the car, it would be a shame for it to just sit idle.

[looking_sharp]

When did you acquire a car?

[ambitiousblond]

An hour ago. It's beautiful, a vast improvement over any of the company cars back home.

[soldierpuppy]

Oh yeah; the only reason I didn't drive when I left home was we didn't have a car. Did plenty of driving on the job, though.

[ Well. If you called what he did driving. Most of it was just... crashing. Heroically. ]

Uhhh... I dunno. Satisfaction of helping someone learn how to drive?

[ambitiousblond]

You are incredibly generous.

I'll take you up on the offer but remember, discretion.

[soldierpuppy]

Oh yeah, I'm super discreet. The most discreet.

private;

[ambitiousblond]

I will hold you to that no matter what.

Tonight at 10 pm. I'll send you the location.

[This 'secret' is going to last all of two seconds but he can't pass up driving lessons from Zack.]

private;

[soldierpuppy]

I'll be there right on time; possibly early even, depending on what town it's in.

private;

[ambitiousblond]

I love your enthusiasm.


[He attaches directions to some lot out on the outskirts of Nonah. Not sketchy at all.]

private;

[soldierpuppy]

That's always nice to hear! My roommate keeps rolling his eyes every time I'm enthusiastic about something.

[ A pause as Zack looks over where mystery man is pointing him to. Seems perfectly legit to him; there's plenty of room to drive too! ]

Okay, got it! I'll see you at 10.

private -> action

[ambitiousblond]

That's a pity. I'll see you tonight then.

[And good to his word, Rufus is waiting there when Zack arrives, leaning against the side of a white BMW, pleased with himself.]

Good evening, Mr. Fair.

[soldierpuppy]

[ Zack was on time, as promised, but he was left being really confused. He paused, looking around for someone else, before turning back to Rufus. ]

Um... hi, Mr. President sir. Uh... why are you here?

action

[ambitiousblond]

Evan is the name of my younger half-brother. I was merely borrowing his name for a bit.

[Sorry, Evan. At least he made you seem cool?]

Rude disapproves thus the need for discretion. But don't worry, if anyone finds out, I'll take the blame since it's my idea.

[It's the least he could do.]

[disasterstraight]

I suppose it all depends on what your experience with vehicles is to begin with. Some of us are starting from scratch, as it were, and need more than just one afternoon to master it.

[looking_sharp]

I would love to see it. Do a safety check if nothing else.
