"I do like fast ships."
---
"If you want to keep eating you'll talk."
---
He smiles and pulls out a map. He carefully spreads it out on the table. "Do.. do you know where the story begins?"

"Good. Is everyone ready?"
--
Darren grins and eats for several more minutes, really enjoying this. "He showed up at my door one day."
--
"At the front of the book." She giggles and noms, glancing at the map.

"Aye!"
Stephen nods. "I'm ready."
Richard makes a vague sound and picks up his suitcase.
---
"How?"
---
"N- no. That's not what I meant. Where on the map?"

"Very well." She picks up her own suitcase and heads out!
--
"Used his legs, I imagine." Munch.
--
"Oh, right." She leeeans over to look at the map.

Richard goes with her.
Stephen gives Trin a confused look before following.
Trin slides off the desk to follow this procession.
---
"Why did he come to you?"
---
He waits!

We'll make this a quick parade. ZOOM!
--
"Just to stay at first. Said he needed a place to sleep."
--
"Uh.. Right there." Points.

How exciting!
---
"And then?"
---
He nods. "Right!" He points. "Right be the ocean. Why do you think this is important?"

Yay! After a short walk, during which there was no doubt some shenanigans going on, they arrive at an airship dock. Angie leads them to the correct ship, which is sleek with gold bits on it.
--
"Then he got on well with Roderick. I let him stay and gave him a job." Shrug.
--
She looks at the map again. "I don't know. I've never seen an ocean."

Trin hurries up to it and trails her fingers on its side. "Be this it?"
---
"And then he tried to kill your son."
---
"An ocean is.. it's a lot of water. And.. and people use ships to cross it."

"Yes. This is the Skylark." She pats its side proudly. "Not bad, is it?"
--
"Yes." A quick snarl escapes him. He muffles it with a dead rabbit.
--
"I know what an ocean is." Frown.

"Looks nice. Let's see how she runs!" Trin scurries inside.
---
"What else do you know about him?"
---
"..Er.. okay.. then how is it important to the book?"

Angie smiles and follows Trin in!
--
"He used to keep a store of magic stuff in.. a walking stick, of all things. I broke it." Hmph.
--
"I told you, I don't know."

Trin hurries to the bridge to look over the engine and controls.
Stephen glances at Angie and speaks quietly. "..You really trust her more than me?"
Richard gives stephen a glare.
---
"What sort of magic?"
---
"..The ships. There were.. two main things that inspired flight. Ships and birds."

Angie looks at Stephen and smirks. "Richard trusts her more than he trusts you."
--
"All sorts. Made him hard to catch."
--
"Birds, huh?"

"She broke into my room."
Richard gives Stephen an annoyed look. "I'm going to go tell her where to fly us." He leaves to find trin.
---
"Hm."
---
He nods. "Yes. The first aeronauts wanted.. well.. escape."
