Welp. I'm getting kinda sick of this part of life here. Any old time we can stop with the random vanishings, that'd be stellar.

Isaac Lahey's suite is empty. He's gone. No idea when that happened. Allison Argent also vanished earlier this month. So that's a thing that's happened.

So, now that my abandonment issues have really been given plenty of fuel to last me through at least my mid-life crisis, a question. Last month due to the generosity of Tony Stark, I got my jeep back. Through careful conservation, I've managed to keep her running.

Except now a certain little dial is hovering just above the E on the left, and I'm kinda screwed. Anybody know where a guy can get his hands on some highly-refined petroleum? I'm not picky, the jeep can run on 87 octane, don't need any of that high-falutin' 93 stuff. Because, you know, the back of a giant turtle is probably full of crude oil deposits.

Oh, wait.

Is the rate of disappearance usually like this? It feels...excessive. Or counterproductive.

Additionally, behold. The shortcomings of mechanical monstrosities.

God, I don't know. Ask around, I haven't exactly been keeping journals about who's vanishing from here.

...And of course. Lemme guess, you'll fill my tank up with sparkle-happy magic after you smash my carburetor by accident.

I am asking around! I'm asking you!

I never said I was going to help you with your idiotic vehicle. Languish in the failings of technology.

[garou]

You're sure?

[skybluejeep]

Yeah. Empty suite. I had a feeling, but I didn't...want to make it official, you know?

[garou]

Damn it.

[saviormaiden]

Do you think there's any connection between them vanishing so close together?

[skybluejeep]

Probably. Who the hell knows anymore, it makes no sense.

[saviormaiden]

Doesn't seem to. They probably aren't leaving of their own choice if they don't even say goodbye. [ Her attempt at helping your abandonment issues, take it or leave it. ]

[After Hannibal, she's not doing so well. And this? Is another blow.]

Isaac's gone?

[skybluejeep]

Yeah. I'm sorry.

Were you guys good friends?

[Video]

[tactile_telekinesis]

Dude, really sorry about that. [He knows how much it sucks when people end up leaving.]

[Video]

[skybluejeep]

Yeah, thanks. It sucks, but at least he's back home.

Stiles? Will you be alright? [That is indeed a lot of friends to lose so quickly]

[skybluejeep]

Me? I'm fine. I'm always fine.

I am sorry to hear that.

( Shockwave had talked to Issac once or twice and found him personable enough - and anyone that shows signs of being interested in whatever work Shockwave was doing couldn't have been bad. )

Although I may be able to help with your fuel problem. I've spend many years researching alternative power sources - coming up with a system that could use whatever resources are available here shouldn't be difficult.

[Oh thank god somebody willing to talk about the practical problem.]

Yeah? That would be pretty sweet. Any ideas that are turtle-friendly? I really don't want to contribute to a pollution problem.

[watcheslanterns]

They're both gone...?

I'm so sorry Stiles.

[skybluejeep]

Hey. Yeah, they're both gone.

How're you? Is Flynn behaving himself?

You get the right equipment you could distil your own.

Gas, that is.

[skybluejeep]

A thought that has crossed my mind! However, I kinda lack a basic engineering degree and said equipment. I'm kinda hoping I can encourage some magnificent genius to help me out.

[ellectric]

I can charge your batteries for you!

[ Totally and completely innocent. Look at her go. ]

[skybluejeep]

[Oh hello there cutie.]

Yeah? I'll keep that in mind if the thing ever craps out. Is this just a "hey I can do this with use of technology?" Or is this a "I can do this with use of magic and zappy fingers?"

[bacondivination]

Hmmm, make me a deal. [ A brief, considering pause. ] And make it entertaining.

[skybluejeep]

A deal for gasoline?

Hmm.

Problem is, I don't really have much to give. What could a guy like me offer a guy like you aside from pastries and alcohol?
