"Bass Bond." Bud corrected. "I can sort of feel out what music he wants to play, then do it for him." He strummed out a basic melody. "Without someone to play me, though, don't expect anything more complicated than, like, Careless Whisper or Anaconda."

A minute or two after Iris went inside, Marvin broke the silence.

"Well, the trip's almost started. I hope it goes well, you know?"

I'm sure it will Marvin. I mean sure plenty of things could go wrong, but that's just half the fun! Road trips are an adventure." She said happily.

He smiled. "Yeah, a bunch of friends all going on a road trip. What could possibly go wrong, and all that stuff. I just didn't want to disappoint Ta-chan, though I won't complain about spending more time with you."

"Well, I don't now what those are." Jake said as he strummed Bud again himself, "But I'll be happy to play you whenever you want."

With that, he ran after Helena. "Hey, wait up! I want in on the RV too!"

Sylvester could only stare at Jake and Helena as they sprinted into his parent's RV, he made a noise between a sigh and a hiss as he looked around at all of those still present. "Isssssss anyone elssssssssse getting on? I wasssssss not made aware of the riding arrangementssssss til jussssst recently." He asked, hissing.

"Ah, if that's the case, I should probably let you get back to it. Would be pretty dumb if the reason it takes you guys so long to get here is that I am tying you up with a phone call. Besides, I should get these drinks out there. The coffee is starting to melt the whip creme, and after I got it to look so nice too. Oh well, see ya in a bit." Iris waited for her friend to say her goodbye before hanging up.

The front door opened and Iris came out with the three drinks on a tray. As she gave the two their respective drinks she talked. "Ta-chan said the rest of the gang is already there and that they should be able to come pick us up soon. So, back to waiting." Taking her own drink, she took a sip and grimaced at its incredible sweetness. "Either of you guys know a lamius boy?"

"Thanks." Marvin accepted the drink and after looking at it, took a sip. Yep, another classic Iris drink.

"Yeah, that's Sylvester. He....actually, I'm not sure if he knows anyone in the band, but he got sucked into the trip after I mentioned it to him." He paused to sip his coffee for a moment, wrapping his head around the issue before giving up. "He said he was bringing his sister along too."

Kenneth pantomimed casting a fishing pole at Rachel and reeling her in. "Heeeey, we gotta go pick up Icepick! Who all's with me? Alice, Rachel, Tsukika, and Larry? Anyone else? We've got one last seat! I'll drive over there. It'll be fun!" He hopped in his van's driver seat, starting it up.

"I'll ride in the RV considering all my stuff's in there!" said Tsukika cheerily as she set her bags next to the ones Sylvester had carried down for her and entered the vehicle, "Plus there's some room over here for Yuna-chan and Iris-chan to ride with me!"

After Kenneth made the call for the group to board his vehicle, in an unusual display of “opportunism”, Alice rushed towards it and took a hold of the front passenger seat. Under different circumstances, she would have waited for everyone to board before her so they could choose the seat they liked best... But with the demon lady trying to manipulate her friend with her devilish charms, the mechanical girl didn't want to risk leaving Ken alone with her for the time being.

-“I'm ready to go. I hope you don't mind if take the front seat, Ken.”

Then she took notice of her still muddy feet, and the fact that she reacted so fast, that she didn't clean them before boarding like she intended to do on the first place. It wasn't an egregious amount of dirt, mind you, but she still felt bad for being careless about it.

-“Sorry for getting mud inside of your vehicle.”

"I figure unless anyone else wants me I'm with Jake." Bud mused. "Just saying, anyone who's interested and who's got fingers can get some nice experience with me."

"Going, going, I just have to put my stuff on the back" says Rachel, carrying the trembling mess of an overloaded suitcase onto the van's back... making the vehicle groan with the weight she laid it on the back and then pushed it in place "There we go..."

Then Rachel moved to one of the back seats, taking off her shoes and putting them on a plastic back so as to not get muddy the floor "Alright, lets pick up the rest of the guys!"

Lilith got in the car, glaring at Alice for taking her passenger seat. She should have called shotgun. She instead decided she would sit directly behind Kenneth, casually playing with his hair behind him, giggling.

All Aboard the Reference Vehicle

Helena hopped into the interior and quickly claimed the front seat. Her laptop was still wrapped up in a plastic cover on top of the back table, but they weren't going on the road yet, so it didn't matter too much; after all, the group still needed to pick up the other three and get breakfast.

Turning her head over to the back, she glanced over at who was joining them. There was Jake with Bud still in his hands, and the hairgirl her bro helped pack. And... someone she didn't recognize.

"SILV! There's a weird human in the RV! Do you know him?"

The RV!

“As birdie here said,” Arthur told Larry, pointing at Helena over his shoulder with his thumb, “I'm a normal, baseline, nothing-out-of-ordinary human. Can do lots of accents as my party trick.” He he stuck his lips out a bit. “Hello. I'm Siobhan Thompson, and this is Anglophenia,” he said in what amounted to the standard Posh accent of the Common Tongue.
The human half-turned and regarded Helena over his shoulder. “I might be of a rare species, but I'm not a jerk. Of course Sylvester knows me.”

Race Violations

Sylvester looked up to see Helena raising a fuss about Arthur, who...he honestly forgot was still in the RV. "Ah, Arty...forgot you were there." He mumbled, scratching the back of his head as he looked at the ground. "Alright...let'ssssssss get going then, we need to pick up Irissssssssss and the other two. Kenneth!" He called out to the other driver. "Go ahead to the Diner, we'll meet you there after we pick up Irissssss and the others."

"Time to race y'all mofos! Dinner for breakfast, second vehicle to get to Bunny Hop has to pay!" Kenneth yelled as he turned the key to start up the van.

The engine coughed, then died. Kenneth frowned, then turned the key again, and once more the engine coughed but didn't start. "I, uh, swear, this doesn't normally happen..." Except this stupid goddamn van really does break down way too often. Kenneth turned the key a third time and the engine roared to life, and Kenneth grinned. "Is everyone buckled up?" he asked his passengers, grinning. "No? Well, strap your shit down and hold on to your asses! I hope you guys all have a good Healing Factor!" He slammed the accelerator down, jerking the van forward.

"The road trip of our lives has officially begun!"

Hey look!. Yu-Gi-Oh meets wrasslin'!

RV

Sylvester sighed as he finished putting everything away before joining the others in the RP. "Alright, Tssssssukika, I will need you to be up here with me to give me the directionssssss to Irisssss' houssssse." He hissed as he took the driver's seat, his tail coiling up so that it could press against the gas pedal, albeit with some difficulty. "Jake, Helena, do you have everything?" He asked, turning to face them.

Helena made herself comfy... before being told Tsukika was sitting in front.

"What, hey, no fair; I called shotgun!" The harpy growled and glowered and made several rude gestures at her brother before resigning herself to the back.

"Yes, I have everything, don't worry... why didn't they just meet us here instead? Lazy asses..."

"Yeah, I think so..." Jake said as he patted down his trousers and checked his backpack before his eyes widened in realization as his face took on a pants-shittingly panicked expression.

"MY LANTERN!" He shouted as he jumped out of his seat and bolted out the door, screaming after his most treasured keepsake.

Iris' Place - RV Touchdown site

After a short time, they arrived, still in one piece miraculously, pulling to a stop in front of the house. "Thissssssss isssssssss the place, right?" He asked as he put the RV in park.

As an RV parked itself in front of the house, Marvin stood up, stretching. "Well, if that's not our ride, then at least they'll have an interesting story."

He ambled over to the RV, peering through the front window. As he got closer, he recognized the two people in the front seat and turned to wave to the Yuna and Iris.

"Yep, it's them!"

Pickup

"Aaaaaaaaalright! Here we go!" Yuna said as she rushed over, got halfway... "AH MY LUGGAGE!" Yuna rushed back and started to pick up her luggage and carry them over to RV.

Marvin laughed and grabbed his luggage as well, lugging it toward the van. "Don't want to forget all those empty suitcases, you know!"
