[ of course, as it turns out, the one thing that she's forgotten to mention to lyssa was the fact that she didn't really have a convenient method of transportation. all she'd asked for the location & time, thinking that would have been enough. of course it hadn't been.

... oh well.

hooking her small messenger bag-slash-purse on her shoulder, she bids her dad goodbye after reassuring him that she'll be back by ten (yes, yes, don't worry, just the mall--). & promptly feels glad that she left two hours before the time she's supposed to meet lyssa 'cause she just missed the bus & the next one won't be arriving for another half-hour. she settles down, pews & waits. long story short (after she subtracts the bus ride & all the weird things her hair is doing in the humidity), she manages to get to the mall in once piece: none of her organs are missing, her dress isn't ripped up, & no one had shoved her head down a toilet. day's pretty good so far (where's wood to knock on when she needed some?). 'cept the fact that she's probably a few minutes late, but--

... oh well.

she'll apologize to lyssa as soon as she can find him. ]

[ glows even more. ]

I'll look it up. [ she can already imagine three or four places that lyssa could check, of course, but just to be on the safe side, she'll go research as soon as she gets dropped off at home. ]

[ takes that as his cue to start speeding, though is careful to not push the speed limit too much. either way they're back at amanda's apartment complex in half the time it took them to leave, pulling up in front of it so she doesn't have too far of a walk to go. ]

Thanks again for the ice cream. Be sure to tell your dad that I said hello.

[ undoes her seatbelt & opens the door, stepping outside. as usual, peers down into the car so that they can exchange a few words of goodbye. ]

I will. He says 'hello' too. [ though it'd been said more indirectly than lyssa's way, with long questions like 'how is that friend-- best friend? b-boyfriend?!-- doing? good?' rather than a simple 'hi, how are you doing' like normal people tended to say. ]

[ nods before he reaches out to push her hair away from her face a little, opting for that instead of his usual spontaneous kiss to the nose or forehead. lets the hand fall after the moment passes, returning it to the steering wheel. ]

Goodnight, Amanda. Dream of your ponies and gundams.

[ blinks in surprise, but smiles at the action anyway. leans back & nods. ]

I'll try. Goodnight, Lyssa. [ & with that, she shuts the car's door as gently as she can. waves to him a little before turning around to enter her apartment complex. ]
