[This is a view looking down on the City from very high up. There's a pair of what looks to be armored (and vaguely frosty) black boots with purple jet trails shooting out the bottoms visible in the very bottom of the picture. It sits there for a few seconds, with the wind obscuring all other sound, then falls.

And falls.

And falls.

The City is much bigger and closer now, and the camera appears to be closing in fast as it slowly turns in a controlled spiral.

The roof of a building is centered in the frame as the camera keeps speeding toward the ground, shortly large enough for anyone who recognizes it to see that it's Kaiba Corp. Mere seconds before what would've been impact, the flier widens the spiral just enough to accomodate the building, then pulls into a horizontal about halfway down. Then back up to the sky, wonderful sky.

Enjoy your firsthand view of what it looks like to fly, Cityzens. Just before the camera turns off, you may hear some delighted, yet slightly insane cackling laughter at the sheer freedom of it.]

[Private to Shockwave; Decepticon encryptions]

We grow stagnant in this place, Shockwave. Do you have any current plans I could assist with?

[And now to Vector Prime]

We should 'dance' again.

[The Fallen]

Stop stealing my wine, aft. I got you your own.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I would've taken the break even if I didn't have to. It's legally required, you know.

[Besides, nothing could beat flying in the middle of the day!!!!11

And now he gets her smile.]

It's the one thing I may miss when I'm in my own body again.

[And now he pouts.] You mean when you leave? I don't want you to.

None of us can tell the 'Porter what to do.

[She frowns at him.]

And I'd prefer to be in my real body again. Too long like this, and I might...forget.

I guess... I wouldn't want to forget what it means to be me.... [This is not a willing agreement, and he bursts out after a moment]

But I don't like it when people leave! I don't want more people to leave!

[Shakes her head and presses the button that retracts her armor suit into its backpack.

There may be a characteristic transforming sound going on.]

We don't get to choose when we go.

[Pouty child is pouty] I know that! And you can't control when you die either! I just hate them!

[There's a long pause and he really kind of wants to call her onee-chan.]

Will you help me with my science homework later? Bakura's no good at it.

[Did he just ask her-

Yes. Yes, he did. What the slag.]

Science homework.

[Wait, it's the miniboss, gotta be nice to him.]

Hngh. I...suppose?

[It sort of hurts to say yes to that.]

[Mokuba beams at her] And since I'm your boss so saying no would have been very hard, I'll pay you time and a half for it 'cause it's after hours.

[See? Miniboss is aware of SOME social niceties!]

[Okay, that's less annoying then. Mmm, money. Money for shiny things. And components for things. And booze.]

All right, then.

[Mokuba manages to look serious long enough to say:] Thank you, Slipstream!

[Then he grins like a maniac.] And then we can go flying again?

As long as your brother doesn't know, yes. You've still got that flight suit and helmet I gave you, yes? It's thermal, you'll be warm.

[Smirk. So much fun to get around what Kaiba the Elder wanted.]

Of COURSE I have them! They were BIRTHDAY PRESENTS. You HAVE to keep birthday presents! It's the LAW!

[Oh Primus whyyyyyyy]

I'll come in on the balcony, then.

[This is a beaming and happy miniboss. This is a good thing for your job security, Slipstream.]

I'll see you then!

[Nod.]
