Okay, okay I know some people might not care for this kind of stuff, I'm sorry, but please bear with me. I'm still trying to work with that gadget we have for this network, like if it has video recording without having to make it public.

Light, can you hold this for me?

[As the camera shifts perspective, we can see that Hope is standing beside a jeep. With a confused look on his face.]

This is not a car. Is this supposed to be a car?

How should I know? You're the human.

But cars in Cocoon aren't like this. Or even in Gran Pulse. It's big and bulky-- is it even efficient? This is just... it really looks like old technology. [No Hope, it's a modern jeep. You're just from futureland.

With a bit of grunting he pops the hood and peers into the engine. ... And makes a huge face because how the heck can this thing even run when all these components. Well, only one way to find out. He takes off his gloves (but not his wrist bandanna, oh no) and starts getting his hands dirty with the engine. His Renamon makes an affronted noise because what the hell.]

Cool! Your cars back home can hover? Like a space ship?

[skycutter]

[Space what. Is this going into science fiction territory now?]

Yeah. But they cant fly like the motorcycles.

[martianimalism]

Oooh-- so they're more like hovercrafts. Noted.

How do you even manage that? I mean, wouldn't a motorcycle need wings for that?

[skycutter]

No they don't. They wouldn't be bikes if they had wings.

[martianimalism]

So how do they fly?

[skycutter]

No idea how exactly since I got to drive one only once, but they have a turbine right at the back, which means that they use it to generate electric energy.

Besides, I haven't studied advanced engineering yet and knowing school? they wont let me get to that point till maybe college. Most of the stuff I know I picked up on my own.

[martianimalism]

Oh. Huh, okay you've got a point. I'm no good with the tech stuff, so I leave that in the hands of others.

But yeah, we don't have the fancy hover cars you have. Looks like this place doesn't either.

Obviously. The vehicles here are land-bound which is... kinda disappointing. If there'd been an airship around maybe we could have seen what's outside the city.
