[~=💀] Mike was glad to see the other was feeling a little more comfortable and accepting of the idea of getting out of this wasteland in order to go back to the more stable parts of Motorcity where their home still stood tall.
As he soon got back to the car, he saw that he had a call waiting for him from both Julie and Texas, as he reached and accepted it, as their little chibi heads appeared in the air, as he let Chuck climb into the car on his side.
-Mike, there you are! Are you doing alright? You hung up really fast, did you find anything?-
“Well, yeah, I found something, but...”
-Don’t leave us in the dark, Tiny, tell the Texas what ya found out there!-
-Wait, you actually found Chuck?! That’s incredible! I-Is he okay? It had been two years, we were starting to give up hope...-
-I’m totally tellin’ Dutch, he is gonna flip out!- And with that, Texas hung up.
“...I really wish he would let me finish. Julie, just know that it looks like your dad got a hold of Chuck back when he went missing, and put him through some horrible experiments. So he’s going to look different, and he has vague memories of his life before... so try to have Texas and Jacob go easy on him. Please.”
The little car earred chibi seemed to give a thoughtful look before nodding gently.
-Alright, I’ll explain what I can to Texas and the others. Just get the both of you home soon. It’s late. Sleep still exists-
“Sure thing, Jules.” He smiled, as he let the connection end, as he started up the engine, “Make sure to buckle up tight. I don’t think you remember much about my driving.”
