Driver's Ed [Wednesday, Period Four]

This week the Dangershop was set up with a comprehensive obstacle course, however rather than last week's Bentley, there was a boxy looking, lime green car at the start of the course. After all, even in simulations, Bond wasn't going to let anyone near a car like that without knowing they could handle it.

"Good afternoon, class," Bond began, leaning against the car door. "Today follows on somewhat from last week's class, allowing me to see your level of driving ability as you take the car around the course. Now, the thing to remember is that today I merely want to see how well you handle the car, it's not a race, you're not going to get points for flashiness, or have them taken away for crashing. Unless of course, you crash while attempting something smart. Please don't try that."

After demonstrating the proper way to take the course, Bond moved over to the passenger seat of the car.

"Now, who's first?"

Marco really, really wanted his BMV back. And the Jaguar.

Turtle really couldn't help smirking at that look on Marco's face.

"Looking a bit...wistful there, Marco," she commented, teasing lightly.

Marco twitched. "It was black. And shinny. And looked so, so cool."

Turtle gave a rueful, stiffly sympathetic patting against Marco's shoulder. "There, there," she told him. "I'm sure with your blossoming celebrity, there will be plenty of black, shiny cars for you to eventually, inadvertently crash into little explody pieces."

Marco sniffled dramatically. "They won't explode, I'll hire someone to drive them. And not let Jake anywhere near them." Not that Jake was leaving his room at the moment.

Turtle frowned skeptically at Marco. "What's the point of having a cool shiny car if you're going to have someone else drive it?"

"Until I get my permit." Marco explained. "Cause the last time I drove, I broke the front door, steering wheel, and gas pedal." The last time he drove, Marco had been a gorilla.

"Wow," Turtle's wide-eyed expression was mostly surprise, but at least a little bit of it certainly was a bit of awe. "And here I was just pulling your leg about being destructive. Remind me that if we ever have to partner up for drives in the class, not to be with your group."

"I was in a rush!" Marco said in his defense. "There were angry people shooting at me!"

"That's no excuse!" Turtle argued back, mostly for the sake of giving Marco a continued hard time. "And, oh my gosh, you probably broke, like, seventeen laws while you were at it, too, didn't you?" She shook her head dismally.

"Probably closer to twenty. At least, that's what my dad was screaming while trying to cling on to what was left of the car." Marco admitted. "I was a gorilla at the time."

Turtle, tilting her head, stared at Marco a little before shaking her head. "And it didn't occur to you that maybe gorillas shouldn't drive cars, Marco?"

"Shooting people!" Marco reminded her. "Shooting people who wanted to kidnap/kill/enslave my dad!"

Arms crossed over her chest, Turtle considered Marco's defense. "I...suppose," she allowed, "that that could count as an extenuating circumstance..."

Marco looked smugly back at her.

"I mean," Turtle continued, fueled by the fact that she took his silence as her victory, "at least a gorilla does have opposable thumbs and everything."

"Exactly! Plus, they're big enough to punch anyone who comes close...."
