LET'S [test] DRIVING

[cava]

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, YOU KNOW THE DRILL. Here's a few options, all stolen shamelessly from previous iterations.

> The Park. Man, what a nice day out. Why not enjoy it? I'm sure -- shit, yep, there's some echo monsters or whatever they're called.
> The Mall. Exactly what it says on the tin! Dodge the hordes of teenage mallrats or take part, whichever suits your tastes.
> Rainy Day. Agh, it's fucking awful out. And is it raining those vermilion things?? Now you've got an Echo to contend with on top of everything else. Find some shelter, quick!
> Arts and Crafts Fair. WILL THE KITSCH OVERWHELM YOU


or make up your own whatever this is basic and just for the purposes of getting a new test drive up.

[ is this idiot for real.

madeline is just about ready to leave him there when a car pulls over. the drivers runs out and kneels by russel, misunderstanding his bloody state.

person: ] Hey, are you alright? Can you stand? Do you want me to call nine-one-one?

[ the person looks up at madeline, who guiltily shrinks back a bit.

person: ] Did you see what happened?

[ madeline: ] Uhhhhhh.......... [ (Oh, crap, I better get out of here!) ]

[pianistofraielin]

[............whoops]

[nervous laugh] No, no, I'm fine--haha, don't worry about me--! [he hops to his feet and dusts himself off]

[and

his hands are still covered in blood

which he realizes, horrified, only after he sees that he's smeared it all over his jeans]

[d-disaster...]

[he gives the kind stranger a very nervous smile, holds his hand over his nose as though that might cover up the evidence (it doesn't), backs up onto the sidewalk, and gives him a wave as if to say 'yes good-bye please move on there is nothing to see here']

[worlddominationbaby]

[ the stranger regards them both with a puzzled look.

stranger: ] It looks like you lost a lot of blood...?

[ meanwhile madeline is slowly inching away. ]

[pianistofraielin]

NOPE I AM TOTALLY FINE HA HA HA THANK YOU GOOD-BYE.

[dead-eyed smile. PLEASE LEAVE THIS IS VERY EMBARRASSING]

[worlddominationbaby]

[ the stranger delivers a hefty frysquint in russel's direction. they do leave, though, wondering to themselves the mysteries of today's youth.

dang, it's real quiet on the Madeline front. why is that? ]
