[Closed Log] Exploration Date

[infinitejustice]

Who: Sheryl Nome, Athrun Zala
What: A boy and a girl seeing the sights together
Where: Nova City, possibly spilling into other cities
When: Shortly after Athrun's arrival

[Athrun is as settled in as he is going to get at this point. He's found a place to stay, and he's currently looking into jobs -- a search he is taking seriously right off the bat. The sooner he can get a job, the better off he'll be -- and he has excellent qualifications. He just needs to get his name out there.

However, today that was all being put on hold. Today he was meeting Sheryl at her request to continue looking around the cities. Nova City in particular intrigues Athrun, due to the technology level, and that was where they're starting.

Athrun arrives at the meeting spot first and takes a seat on a nearby bench. There, he waits for Sheryl to arrive.]

[ If there was one thing that the Galactic Fairy could do well, it was making an entrance. Rather than walking towards him like what any normal person would do, she was racing towards him on something she found very interesting ...

... so Athrun will see her on what looked like a futuristic, hover? bike that she rented on her way to see him. She stopped expertly in front of him and took off her helmet. ]

Well, well, well ... aren't we punctual?

[infinitejustice]

That tends to be the case with military academy graduates.

[Athrun manages a smile, though he looks a tad awkward as he does.]

That's an interesting vehicle you have there. Where did you get it?

[the_galaxyfairy]

[ Sheryl smirked and grinned proudly. She had to admit that she was proud of her find. ]

I know. Come on and hop on. I will take you where I found it. I figured we are going to need this if we are really going to see ... everything!

[infinitejustice]

All right, sounds like a plan.

[Athrun lifts himself up onto the bike with little trouble. He takes a deep breath, then carefully wraps his arms around Sheryl's waist.]

Is this good?

[the_galaxyfairy]

Hold on tight ...

[ She starts the engine. With one last cheeky wink, she continues: ]

... because I like to go fast.

[ With that, she races through the the throngs of people to make their way to the bike rentals. ]

[infinitejustice]

[Athrun doesn't need to be told twice. He hangs on, watching in surprise at how deftly Sheryl is already able to handle the hover bike. He remains silent throughout the ride.]
