Canon is The Dresden Files

[raggedlady]

Hey, let's get cracking here. You want to get used to me again, you're going to have to read faster. It won't take much, just a little practice and it'll be like riding a bicycle. By the way, does that really work? The thing with the bicycle? I haven't ridden one in a while.

Are bicycles really so much fun?

[raggedlady]

Well I guess it depends on what you find fun, as a kid I loved mine. And they're pretty useful for getting places when you don't have a car. And there are motorcycles for us big kids too.

[earlofphantoms]

Motorcycles are...abundant? The first one I saw was in Germany.

[raggedlady]

Uh... yeah? Man where are you from?

[earlofphantoms]

I am from England, madam.

[raggedlady]

Pfft. Madame. Okay.

Yeah I'm pretty sure there's motorcycles in England.

[earlofphantoms]

I much prefer to travel by carriage myself, but to each his or her own.

[raggedlady]

By... by carriage? Seriously? That's like, before suspension.

But I guess horses are nice?

[earlofphantoms]

Carriages have some suspension. {Otherwise what bumpy rides!} I am fond of them.

[raggedlady]

Have you actually ridden a motorcycle? Or are you just one of those old guys who gets set in your ways?

[earlofphantoms]

I do not think so? {Well.} Do I seem old?

[in_the_book]

Not sure how I'm going to get used to you, grasshopper. Because I can guarantee you're going to throw me for a major loop.

[raggedlady]

Heh, well, can't say it won't be kinda funny though right? It'll be a little weird being closer to your age, but you not knowing stuff, well that's not exactly my first rodeo.

[in_the_book]

Oh, the mun's already laughing at it. Lousy bum.

[raggedlady]

I think it might be in the job description to torture us in their position. Still it'll be nice to see you again boss.

[in_the_book]

Pretty sure you're right on that one, Molly. And it'll be good to see someone familiar.
