Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aonice quickly closed the door, careful to make sure all of morri was in the car first, not wanting to close it on a wing or anything. She quickly jogged around the cabin and hopped in her side, pressing in the clutch as she sat down. She quickly inserted the keys, released the handbrake, and with a loud roaring humm the engine quickly filled the garage with it's sound, dying down to a humble rotary purr. "I figured i'd take you to one of my favorite viewing spots, behind Suki mountain" She hinted right before gripping the shifter, then she pressed in the gas, bringing the revs up loudly as she released the clutch delicatly. The 8 quickly jet out of the garage, and in less than a second morrigan already felt the tug of the clutch as she threw it into second, only to be pulled to the left of the car as Aonice practically slid out of her driveway and onto the road. There she nearly brought the pedal to the floor once more, a loud whistling following the engines sounds as the air vibrated inside it's turbo systems.

The car easily made it's way out of the turn and quickly darted down the narrow, curvy road of the island's coastline, Aonice kept her foot down as they darted past certain landmarks, only to feel the small tug forward whenever she pressed in the clutch to change gears, and then reach an even greater speed. As soon as the speedometer reached a little over 80 on a good stretch of road was about when the question came up, and she delivered a shrug and rested her hand on the stick for a moment. "I've been doing this for quite some time. Since before i gained my driver's liscense, infact" She smirked. Morrigan noticed that they were soon about to enter an rather firm left turn up the side of the mountains at a speed that was most definatly unsafe for an object of this size to comfertably make. As the turn came closer, the headlights flashed over a long piece of steel that outlined the edge of the turn, only advertising that there would be a sheer drop off the other end if they were to fail making it.

"You might want to hold on a bit, it's been a while since i've made this one turn" She smirked, and quickly pressed in the clutch, the vehical decelerated slowly as they coasted towards the curve, then with a downshift and a press to the floor, the motor reved loudly. Finally Aonice manouvered her foot so that her heel kept the clutch down, and her toes attacked the brake, and the car immediatly began to slide forward as the tires lost grip from the brakes. She quickly released the clutch as she whipped the wheel leftwards, into the turn, and the tires spun wildly behind them. The entire vehical began to squeel as it rotated to it's left, finally entering the turn, and for a second it looked as if they were about to smack the inside of the corner, untill the rail flew out of sight and all that showed before them was the rest of the track up the mountain.

Finally Aonice turned the wheel to the right to apply the correct amount of countersteer, and straightened the car as it gracefully flew around the hairpin completly sideways, all the while retaining an incredible amount of speed unatainable by simply slowing down and taking the turn. "The rest of the mountain gets rather curvy, i hope you don't mind rocking around abit" She smirked, as the last turn they had made practically stuck Morrigan to the right side of the bucket seat.

"The Cage is strong enough to protect me from a crash, but it's not like i rely on it." She spoke before quickly provoking the same process. The front tires turned into the turn, the rear tires suddenly lost grip before burning plenty of smoke behind the car, and as Aonice angled the front tires the oppisite direction of the turn, the car slid sideways accross the cement, and eventually all that could be smelled was burning rubber as thick tar lied itself against the ground from behind the agressive tires. I'd rather rely on my skill to keep me safe, rather than a piece of equipment" She smirked.

Suddenly, as they entered one turn, right around it's corner, loomed another curve off in the other direction. Aonice had angled the car too far to slide as she had been doing the past turns, but she quickly shunted the brake pedal and pulled the handbrake for a firm second, Slowing the car quickly. Counter forces tugged the girls forward before suddenly throwing them to the right as Aonice quickly aimed the wheel at the other turn, and with some pumps to the gas pedal, the car seemed to use it's own momentum to smoothly fall in line with the opposing turn in just enough time to politly skim the guard rail..
"Of course, sometimes this turns come at you a bit quickly"

After a few more similar Turns, Aonice quickly pressed the brake and pulled off to the side of the road where a small viewing area rested along side the mountain's edge. Aonice hopped out of the car after pulling up the E-brake so that it woudn't roll down the mountain side, and hopped over to the guardrail, where she leaned over to take in the site of the moonless sky, for a thick overcast of clouds seemed to fill the night. From this side of the mountain there was an absence of view of the rest of the mountain, Over the rather weak guardrail loomed hundreds of feet of cliffside, and at the bottom was jagged rock and rushing waves.. "This is it" She nodded, Scratching her cheek as she began to think of something clever to say, not realy planning anything out.. "I'm not much for views, as i usually like to execute rather than watch.." She said clearly as the wind loudly blew around them. Her bright blue eyes glanced down over the edge of the rail, and focused on the dangerous waters below. "But i think this is my favorite sight on the Island. It's nothing really spectacular, i just like seeing how well the water clashes against the rock. It's always been a good place to relax, and on the rare occasion, a good meditation for stressful times" She shrugged, then looked back towards Morrigan curiously. "Of course, to a person who's expierienced so much as yourself, i'm sure none of this is really something worth noting, neh?" She smiled weakly before returning her gaze to the waters, appreciating her first completly private moment with Morrigan.

Morrigan took a seat on the edge of the cliff, staring out into the ocean. "This entire island has been 'worth noting', darling. I don't think I can remember a place that I've stayed for so long outside of Makai."

"This place is beautiful," she added, still looking out to sea. "You're very lucky to have such a naturally beautiful home. In that respect, I envy you..." Morrigan trailed off before her thoughts changed subject, though she approached it a bit more gradual in her speech. She turned to look back at Aonice. "I remember when I first found this place. You were gracious enough to allow me land, almost right in the middle of the island, for my own manor. That, with all of the little subtle friendly quips when we're together, and then this... I've always wondered, and especially now: What do you think of me? How do you feel?" She paused for a moment, her gaze returning to the ocean. "You have to be honest. I wouldn't think you'd be so friendly and supportive to such a stranger for no reason."

Morrigan contemplated what Aonice had said for a moment. It was similar to the idea she already had about how she felt about her, and as such did not ask with the point of finding out what it was. Rather, it was simply to get it out into the open to talk about.

Morrigan walked behind Aonice and wrapped her arms around the small woman from behind. "Darling, if that's the case, then why wouldn't you want to be with me? You understand, that even when I choose someone as a suitor, it is not permanent. I think you underestimate your chances."
