[ He doesn't sound unwelcoming, though. He just needs to check something. ]
Are you bringing a car with you? Because I have need of borrowing from my instructors. And we won't find a spare one around my farm, lovely though it is.
I can get one. [ stiles' jeep has been parked at the bait shop since before abigail was ported out in february. looks like she's going to finally take it for a spin. ...although that's so far. maybe she'll just
um
liberate one. ]
Yeah, I can get one. You live on a farm? [ she sounds interested. pets???? ]
Oh, De Chima isn't that far. [ it's 12 hours by car so she can't actually drive so she is going to have to borrow a car. SHE RETURNS THEM FOR THE RECORD!! and she asks! (she doesn't doesn't advertise it, because she knows it's shady as fuck.)
maybe she can drop grey somewhere he needs to go too, while she's at it. she doesn't want to strand him if she's going to be gone all day. she makes a mental note to ask him. ]
I do, like horses, I just haven't seen many up close.
Well then, we’re about to change all that. Teach me to drive, and I’ll teach you to ride. Our mares will like the exercise, anyway.
[ That would be good for Abigail, he thinks. He doesn’t see her outside all that much, and d’Artagnan is someone who is rarely inside. Maybe he can instil a love of fresh air in her. ]
[ stares around the shop... frets needlessly about the state of her business... fuck it. she brushes her fingers across a nickle in the leave a penny, take a penny bowl, turning it gold. there, made her day. ]

Hello. Is that my mannerless, heathen friend Abigail? What can I do for you today?
no subject
[ aca-awkward. ] I was busy. There was a thing.
no subject
[ There's a smile in his voice. Abigail is a sweet girl, and he likes her. ]
But if you're willing, I'll still take you up on it. I'm better than I was at first, anyway.

d'artagnan is nice, the idea of socializing with him doesn't seem like a bad one. ]
I can meet you, up there, if you want?

[ Sure. Teach him to drive on country roads, there surely won’t be any problem with that.
At least he doesn’t realise she’s some sort of car thief. ]
It’s Queen Lucy’s farm, technically. Do you like horses?
