Welcome to Gaia! ::

I couldn't afford a car like that back when bought it. It was a heap, but... it was my heap. It took me eight years to restore it, mostly tracking down the parts. The work wasn't so hard, really. Older cars are easy. My fa-- ... uncle was a mechanic. I grew up around cars.

*Bard smiles thoughtfully* There's nothing like owning a car you helped restore, eh?

*he walks over to the car again. It's cooled down, so he shuts the hood. Somehow it feels like shutting a casket.*

Now, I could afford to have a pro fix this one up, but.... I'd rather do it myself. Even if it takes eight more years...

Well... *Bard scratches his head* I don't know... I was sitting in the car while I was trying to enter the Brink... but then we doen't usually bring chairs with us...

But... I was a bit desperate to get here at the time... and... *he chuckles* I was focusing on bringing everything with me... so....

*he shrugs*

*Bard watches Luke go, then looks forelornly at his car. He places his hands on it, squinting his eyes, murmuring* I believe... I believe...

*when he opens his eyes however, he and the car are still in the Brink.*

I guess you stay here, then...

*he ensures that he has both sets of keys and that the car is properly locked. He turns to the board, suddenly remembering that he gave his key to Maggie, but his key is there, waiting for him. He puts it in the door and heads back to his own time.*

** Exit Bard **

K appears in the Brink walking leisurely when he comes to a sudden stop. He looks back and forth, once again aware that he is no longer home. He marvles at its vast lack of presence and thinks "Wow, if only they could see this"

He sniffs the air and is suprised to recognize the smell of burning. Burning what, he can't distinguish but its obvious there had been a fire. He looks over to the large green machine across the way. He notices that the smell gets stronger as he approaches it, so he stops, in case that is what Luke meant by 'danger'

He is alone now, so he decides to take a look at the bar. The others seemed to manuver around it freely, so he assumed there would be no harm in doing so himself. Eventually he fishes out a large black bottle with a long neck he reads the label and confirms that it is wine.

"I wonder if it is the same here." He opens it up, and pours himself a glass.

((Hey Mamasboy, in case you're not sure, if you have to go before you can fade your character or put him in his room, we just assume you've faded out ^_^))

:::Cora walks into the main room from the hall. She sees that no one else is around and decides to get herself a much deserved glass of chardonnay:::

:::Cora's about to take a sip when she looks over and sees Luke getting himself situated at the bar. She lowers the glass, looks over at him just long enough to say:::

Hello.

:::Then back down at the glass:::
