[IC] All around the world in this old car

[TheSecret]

-USA, Colorado, Denver, Civic Center Park-

"Yes mom...I brought my teeth brush..."
"Yes mom...I brought warm clothes..."
"No mom...I didn't bring any alcohol.."

Fasuto replied to his mothers questions while looking at a cardboard box filled with tequila bottles, courtesy of Mexico.

"No mom...I'm not in Europe...yet. I'm Colorado...no old hag! not the political party! The state of Colorado! Sheesh...Yeah I'm supposed to meet with the others here...Yeah, ok, take care, love ya'"

Fausto ended the call and took a deep breath, he watched people come and go minding their own bussine, hile leaning against the car.
He looked at the last conversation he had with the other on internet.

"Alright...I just have to wait..."

[SwarthyBard126]

Headphone over his ears, Logan Haley swayed gently side to side, making his way through the crowd. The boy, almost a man, was all of 6' and carried a sign that said ALL AROUND THE WORLD. As his song ended, Logan heard as much as he saw the orange haired youth balancing the poorly hidden box of tequila and shouting, what the boy's half forgotten foreign language class helped identify as, Spanish into his phone.

"I just have to wait..." the redhead sighed while he looked down at his phone.

Logan silently sidled up behind the man and, grinning all the while, whispered into the redhead's ear,

"Fausto Cornel, I presume?"

[BlackCat]

Iono led Reina by the hand. The younger half asleep from the flight. Iono had a thermos of coffee in her hand, but she still looked drowsy.
"Are we there, nee-san?" Reina asked.
"Yeah. We just have to find our group, so stay awake. K," Iono responded, looking around. She spotted Faust holding the sign and sped up. Reina staggered after her. Reina sipped from her own thermos and perked up slightly, now actually walking instead of simply staggering, towards their destination.

Charlotte saw them. Well, two of them at least. She excitedly ran over towards her friends and hugged them both without warning. "Faus! Logan! It's so nice to finally meet you guys in real life!" she squealed. Her grip was suffocating, but she didn't notice because she was too excited. "I wonder where everyone else is at?" She then nudged Logan. "I have some Tolstoy in my backpack for the trip. What did you bring?" She then shook Fausto's hand. "Wow, you're really, really tall. I expected you to be tall, but not this tall! Man, I wish I could see the world from your perspective. She took a deep breath, her throat was getting a bit tired from talking a lot. She decided to take a break and just smile at them both brightly.

[TheSecret]

"I'm your man"
Fausto replied to Logan's question and shaked his hand with a friendly smile

"Are you ready for the adventures?"
He asked before Charlotte arrived

Fausto got suffocated by Charlotte's hug, and could not help to feel embarrassed when she mentioned his height.
"Well..You I knew you were cute, but not this much"

He said flirtatiously.

"And talking about being cute, look at that~"

He said referring to Reina and Inuo.

"Konichiwa"

He said joking

[BlackCat]

Iono scowled at Fausto's comment whereas Reina smiled sweetly.
"Hey," Iono said to the rest of the grouped, waving slightly. She had a Japanese accent but it wasn't overwhelming. Reina count to her sister, sticking closer to her. She wasn't afraid of the others, she just found that for now it was safer to stay near people she knew.

[karamonnom]

Charlotte gave the two sisters a hug as well, though it was a lot gentler, probably because she calmed down. "Wow, you're so pretty, Iono." she smiled, "And look at you, Reina, you are a woman now." she added, sounding like an old relative of some sort. She then turn to Fausto and gave him a light punch on the shoulder. "Oh shush, you're just saying that."

[SwarthyBard126]

Logan grinned at the little exchange between the small group and drawled sarcastically

"Ya' know Fausto, if yah were any more smooth, I could scrape your skin for oil."

Then turning to the sisters, he bowed slightly still grinning"

"Greetings, I am the one who is known as Logan Haley. I am looking forward to growing closer to you two through this trip."

turning his head to Charlotte, and to you as well Lady Hansen. Though I am quite suprised at your choice of literature. I have confined myself to a far easier task of reading Proven Guilty of the Dresden Files. As well, Your pictures do not truly articulate how white your hair is."

[karamonnom]

Charlotte playfully curtsied. "Tolstoy is a favorite of mine, though I have a soft spot for most Russian authors." she replied. "Be sure to let me borrow it when you're done by the way, I haven't read that yet."

[TheSecret]

"Woah woah there, calm down dude"

Fausto said as he stepped back in order to not get hit by Logan, he then opened the door of the car and put the box inside, he sighed in relief, the tequila was safe.

"How can't you recognize such a cutie?"

He said jokingly as he pulled a thermos filled with hot water, a shared hollow calabash gourd, a silver straw and a packet of chopped and dried herbs. He prepared his infusion and put the thermos under his arm, then stared drinking.

"Ugh Damn bitter"

He continued drinking even after such complain.

[SwarthyBard126]

Logan rolled his eyes and replied while following Fausto to the car,

"Haven't been sleeping well for the past week due to my allergies, and I've just changed 'bout 3 time zones, so 'scue me if I'm a bit out of it"

He placed his bag and placed it in the trunk before moving into the row of seats closest to the trunk.

[karamonnom]

"Shotgun! I want to sit up front." Charlotte called out loudly. She put her stuff in the trunk and sat in the passenger seat. "Wooohoo! I'm so pumped right now. I can't wait to get going." She turned on the radio station, loudly.

She put on her seat belt and pushed back the seat a little so it was more comfortable, but not too much where it would take up too much space for the person sitting behind her.

[FaeFae]

Crap. She was going to be late. *sigh* Shiloh jogged around desperately looking around. "Damned random pedestrians, I'll never find them at this rate!" And then she saw it. Finally! A sign that said "All around the world" That must be them! She strolled in their direction and shouted "Hey guys! What are you leaving without me?"

[TheSecret]

Fausto just watched Charlotte take the lead while drinking his beloved mate, Charlotte made him doubt if he was the owner of the car or not for a second.

"Alright alright but don't disturb me while driving ok?"

He said as he turned around to see Shiloh arrive

"And another beauty joins the group! Of course we weren't leaving without you"

[karamonnom]

"Hey Shiloh!" Charlotte greeted happily. "It's really good seeing you in person," she almost had to shout everything because the music was up pretty loud. "So Shiloh's here, now we're just missing Morgan and Jericho." she announced to the rest of them, after turning the music down a little bit just so they could actually hear her.

She stuck her tongue at Fausto. "Why would I disturb you?"

[TheSecret]

Fausto extended his hand as if he was to grab Charlotte's tongue

"Well, as long as you don' play any justin bieber music we will be on good terms"

Fasuto said while making sure there was enough space for everyone.

"Alright...I brought everything I need...for now"

[FaeFae]

Shiloh grinned and blew a kiss to Charlotte the she shouted back "Hey there sweetheart, How have you been?" She turned to Fausto and laughed "Oh Fausto, flattery will get you no where." Shiloh glanced at the poorly hidden tequila " That might though. Any of that for me?"

Shiloh winked at the two sisters and nodded at the tallest one " Well look at you! You must be Logan! Lookin forward to the trip?" Shiloh grinned widely.

When Morgan was thirteen, he had two startling discoveries.

For one, he had learned that dried cheerios made the ultimate snack while traveling (especially for those with rather weak stomachs) and two was the fact that he was destined to be a traveler. Then again, who wouldn't want to travel the world after they had grown up in the most cold and boring location in all of New England?

" . . . missing Morgan and Jericho."

Good timing.

The raven had just pulled out his headphones and found the old car with an obvious sign, "All around the world." No doubt that was his online friends. Was he going to through with this? Of course. "Yo," the late teenager spoke as he got closer to the car that they would be taking, "I'm late, aren't I?"

[karamonnom]

Charlotte gasped, "IT'S MORGIIIIEEEE!" she squealed and tried to reach over to pinch his cheeks. She has always had a bad habit of doting on him as if he was a little kid. She couldn't help it, he was so adorable and she just wanted to protect him and treat him like the little brother she always wanted. It was worst now that she is seeing him in person. "We would never leave without you, silly!"

[SwarthyBard126]

"IT'S MORGIIIIEEEE!"
Hearing the loud scream jolted the slumbering form of Logan out of the his curled position in the back of the car, leading him to slamming his head against the ceiling of the car.

"F*** OW! Holy Christ on a trike girl do you have a set of lungs"

Rubbing his now throbbing head, logan propped himself up and raised his fist, for a bump, toward the newcomer.

"Welcome to the Madness friend, so glad you could join us."
