"I is afraid me driving does not happen as never learned how. But that is ok I can move my way with ease and works goodly." She says as she watches the vehicle lift off and then turns to Gabe, "Look at this way Gabe. If you quit smoking we can maybe find you girl. I mean girl like me not care if man smoke or not. Although would more likely kiss man that does not smoke as they live more longer. But with your power that make interesting curiosity. Actually maybe something I can do to help if you wanted to quit, but no it is your choice so I apologize."

Gabe glances in Sylwia's direction after hearing her, while the half of his face that he keeps out of view twitches as he tries to figure out what to do. She doesn't care, but prefers non smokers. She wants to help me find a girl...I really need to talk to her soon. Gabe then looks at Calvin and mentally communicates to him saying Not a word Cal, i'm already trying to make heads or tails of this, you don't need to add to it. Gabe then says "I'll think about it. This still isn't going to be a quick thing, and it will make me...awnry to say the least to even try, so I would like to think about it."

Calvin smiles as the SUV leaves the mundane streets below, and chuckles when he hears that he'll learn how to drive them. "Man, that is awesome. Does it have a hover mode, like, where you can leave it hovering unattended?"
As Sylwia points out that she never learned to drive, Calvin responds "But that's the best time to learn something, Syl... when you don't know how. I know you and I can fly, but sometimes, you need a vehicle. Like if you're rescuing folks, and you've got to leave them somewhere safe as you go back for more, or something, and knowing how to drive a rig like this is going to come in real handy. Driving's not that hard, either. And it can be relaxing. I think you'll enjoy it."
As she makes her remark about finding Gabe a girl, Calvin starts to speak up, but hears Gabe's chastisement in his head, so he merely chuckles.
"I wouldn't worry too much about finding Gabe a girl. He knows what he's looking for and he's not helpless. Now, if Brutal were still with us, that'd be a different story..."

"Yes, they are capable of hovering and top speeds up to 120mph, though I do not recommend it unless in a wide open area. The anti grav system draws high amounts of voltage so is hard on fuel to just sit and hover. You are better off just touching down when not required." MacColter explained as he piloted the hover SUV, and wisely stayed out of conversations involving relationships.

Sylwia turns to Gabe, "Well if anything I can do to help. I mean anything at all to help you or motivate you I be happy to help. Not think I can do much to do so though. Still whatever it be I try and help."
She then turns to Calvin, "I not sure I want to learn to drive. I mean yes be helpful but really just never had time and learning on this would just be frustrating knowing slowly it moves."

Gabe takes a deep breath as he thinks to himself First she wants me to quit smoking, then she tells me something that makes me want to smoke...Yeah, quitting seems real easy right now. Gabe decides to focus on something else before he gets an ulcer as he says "So, driving this huh? I can see the benefits of knowing how to drive a flying van. Out of curiosity, how much does this weigh when fully outfitted with passengers and gear? Had an idea, and was wondering just how feasibly it would be to do."

Calvin nods thoughtfully at Syl's sincere offer to help Gabe quit smoking. After thinking about it for a moment, he comes to a conclusion. Sylwia may be the best person I know. At the talk of driving, he again just nods his head. Can't force someone to learn what they don't want to learn. If she sees value in it at some point, then she'll learn.
As Gabe talks about ideas for maneuvers involving this newly-discovered function of the van, he thinks to himself That's our Gabe... always thinking, always planning ahead. And he smiles.
"You know... excuse me for a moment here... but I'm really glad that I have you two with me as we move forward. I don't mean to infect this conversation with sentimentality, but I just want you two to know that you're more than teammates to me." He shifts in his seat. "That's all." He smiles.

Gabe blinks in confusion for a moment before saying "Cal, you make it sound like there is somewhere else we would rather be. Speaking for myself at least, what kind of friend would I be if I let you go and do this on your own? A pretty crappy one if i'm being honest. Besides, this is bound to go better than our last move." Gabe says with a smile.

"That be nicest thing said to me in while which be good as you be only family and friend I ever have since my father died. I know when changed my way changed as I was not so goodly a person as before not being stealer of things and all. Not sure know that about me you did. But all better now." she says to the group with a smile and then goes to hug each one as best she can.

With a frown on Gabe's face at the mention of Syl's deceased father, he then says "I'm just glad the bastard who did it is dead and that its all behind us."

"Not sure how much it weighs, Gabe. The specs may be in the glovebox, but it it built under contract by designers in Century Station."
A silence sort of fell over the HSUV before Mac nodded," Well said. Ahh we're getting close. Have to drive in so we don't spook your new neighbors." They lowered to street level and continued along through the suburbs of waterfront southern Miami. as they wound down a street of mansions behind high fences and well cared for lawns. It was obvious they did not bring work home.
MacColter pressed a remote opener on the mirror and the next set of the arched gateways opened," Welcome to your new home."
(ooc: sorry, never found a good visual, but there is a description in with the NPC's section)

Calvin watches as the approach the "Beach House". Never had a spot this nice before. As Sylwia brings up her past, Calvin shrugs it off.
"You were who you were, and you are who you are. For some people, that's the same thing. For others, it's not. I'm not the same person I was before I got my powers, either." I was a selfish prick before.
"What's important to me is what you do today. What you do tomorrow. And Syl... you've proven yourself, and then some. You and Gabe both. There's no need to worry any more about who or what you might have been once upon a time. This is who we are now." He looks out the HSUV window at the mansion.
"We're superheroes."

"I wish I felt like a superhero sometimes. But me will one day feel like it and this be new place and new start. Although be different then thought. Still nice and all although why beach being place people like is not known to me. I do not even own suit really for water so unless go in no clothed be a bit before I touch water. Funny though be I was scared of stuff in sea at point but now I think it is fine." She says looking towards the water but not being impressed for the reasons above.
"What be fun is just going in and explore I guess."

"Oh well, I'll just look into it later, no sense in checking it out in my down time." Checking out Syl going nude to the beach however would be right up my alley. She doesn't seem to get why people go to the beach though... After saying and thinking said things, Gabe says "Its hard to feel like a superhero with some of the things we deal with. I just prefer to look at it another way, i'm doing that which i feel is right that others simply can not do. Doesn't sound very heroic put that way, but we're on the side of the law, so it can't be that bad. And Syl, people go to the beach to relax, cool off on the hot days with the cold water and play a bit." Gabe then looks out the window at the beachhouse and thinks to himself Well to do criminal huh? That much have been one hell of a gig he had going to get a place like that...

MacCoulter parked the HSUV next to two identical ones in front of the beach house. As he got out, he looked at all three of them, "Calvin is right, you are super heroes. Some of them are not here, but the rest of the people you are going to be teamed with are as well. And I am certain great things will come of this merger. Unless there is anything you need, your bags will be fine for now." He suggested.
