Come Over
Azurat: Alright, Ravenna.
Azurat: Your school's out tomorrow for an in-service day.
Azurat: Still... don't stay up too late, alright? They want you to report to the lab tomorrow.
Ravenna: Ok. Bus is just gonna come over for a couple hours so we can compare our history class notes.
Azurat: Sounds fine. Say "Hi" to him for me, okay?
Azurat: I'm exhausted and going straight to bed. I have to pick up fuel canisters for the Hovercrane in the morning.
Ravenna: Wait... we were flying around on low fuel tonight?
Azurat: Nah. I increased the safety limit. Besides, it's not like it would plummet to the ground.
Azurat: Didn't they teach you about magnetocraft this semester in your engineering class?
Ravenna: Sorry, Pop. We haven't studied hover engines yet.
Azurat: Young lady, no daughter of mine is going to get her magnetocraft learner's permit...
Azurat: ...let alone fly an S-class Hovercrane GT-4 without understanding the physics of hover engines!
Ravenna: Sure, Pop. I'll get Bus to help me study that tonight, too, ok?
Azurat: See to it! Ha ha, and with that... I'm off to catch some Z's.
Ravenna: (Now to call Bus...)
Ravenna: (Come on, Bus... pick up already...)
Ravenna: Whoa! What the...
Ravenna: That was kinda odd.
Ravenna: Sounded kind of like one of those ancient data port devices.
Bus: Yo, Rave. You jus' call?
Ravenna: Yeah but the connection was acting really weird.
Bus: Hah hah! Naw, Rave, that was just me switching to a secure line.
Bus: Don't want those spy creeps listenin' in.
Ravenna: Um, secure? As in encrypted?
Ravenna: Isn't that illegal?
Ravenna: Hey Bus, you still coming over to help study tonight?
Bus: Sure. Beats sittin' around here all night, anyway.
Ravenna: Great. Dad said it's okay but we can't clomp around and make a bunch of noise tonight because he's trying to sleep, ok?
Bus: Aw. Guess I'll have to leave my clompin' boots here at home, then.
Ravenna: There's some other stuff I'd like to talk about tonight if you're up for it.
Bus: Sure but hey, Rave...
Bus: Secure line! You can tell me now if you want.
Ravenna: Okay... Well, what can you get regarding the Morgan's Gate? Specifically, something called a "V-CORE"?
Bus: Oooohhhh.... that's gonna be tricky, even for me.
Bus: Tell you what, though. I'll see what I can find and then I'll head on over to your place, ok?
Ravenna: Thanks, Bus. Don't get caught.
Bus: Nah, it's all good. I won't get caught.
