Killian got ready, putting on his customary outfit for this. He hummed softly as he got ready, leaving his hair messy and uncombed.

Jade sat down on the couch with her helmet off, waiting for either Hex or Sparky to show up. With traffic Spark estimated 5 minutes to arrive.

Killian came back. He was dressed in black, along with a cape this time, and the half mask in place over his face. "Voila. Trying a new look today." He said with a grin.

Jade looked at him and smirked. ”Nice color scheme. But you still look like a villain.” she teased. ”Sparky’s on the way. Should be five minutes.”

"Same color scheme as normal." He replied. "I meant the cape." He wiggled it, grinning. "Alright. Is he big enough for two, or do I have to try and run and keep up?" He chuckled.

Jade chuckled. ”The cape really sells the point. No, you won't have to run, you’ll just have to hold on to me.” she smirked a little.

He smiled. "Good." He rolled his eyes. "Okay. Where?" He winked, smirking.

Jade scoffed playfully. ”Oh, please. The number of times we’ve physically grappled each other, I’m sure we felt one asset or another.” she raised a brow. ”As long as you don't try anything funny while I’m driving we should be fine.”

Killian smirked. "Well, there's a reason I wear a cup." He replied, still smirking. "And me? Something funny? Of course not." He chuckled.

Jade laughed heartily. ”As if I would resort to such a low blow unless I had no choice.” she reminded. Though I'm sure accidents can happen to anyone.

(i lied, I can still be on for a little bit. But idk how much longer)

Killian shrugged. "Yeah, that's true. But I still do anyway. Don't want to damage the family jewels." He smirked again, laughing.

(Yay!)

Jade laughed a bit harder. ”Honestly, I never really understood that moniker for those.”

He sighed loudly. "I…do you really want me to explain?" He asked, cocking an eyebrow. "Actually, no, I'm going to explain. They're called the family jewels because… they're round like jewels. Ish. And you use them to make a family. Or at least, that's how I've always interpreted it. I might be wrong." He shrugged.

Jade covered her face with her hands as she laughed a little embarrassed. ”No, stop. I wasn't asking for an explanation.” she said very red-faced. ”Oh my God, Hex! Are you really that tactless?”

Killian laughed. "Yes I am." He said, flopping down on the couch. "And hey, at least i didn't like…show you. Even I have more decency than that." He smirked, still laughing.

”You perv! You thought about it!” Jade accused knowingly. ”I’m half tempted to make you run now. But I can't have you knowing where my Den is, so you lucked out of getting some exercise.” she sighed.

Killian grinned. "Nah." he replied, rolling onto his stomach and looking over at her. "Whaaat? I wouldn't run. I would fly or something. Use magic to propel myself."

”Of course you would.” Jade rolled her eyes playfully as her helmet gave two short chirps, like those of a car alarm arming. ”Sounds like our ride is here. You coming or are you actually going to fly?” she asked sliding her helmet on but leaving the visor up.

Kilian chuckled, and rolled into a standing position. "I'll ride. I promise no inappropriate behavior on my part." he smirked.

”Good to hear.” Jade smiled and gave a small nod as she opened the door. The bike followed her usual hi-tech motif; mostly black, sleek and handmade for maneuverability but there was still room for a passenger on the back.

Killian followed her. Once she was out, he locked the door, tucking the key in an inner pocket, then followed her to the bike. He let out a low whistle. "Oh, wow." he said, admiring it. "Sweet ride." he commented, grinning.

“Thank you. Made it myself, with few modifications.” Brainwave’s electronic voice replied, holding a note of pride as she climbed on fluidly. She double-checked that the passenger mode was turned on and lowered the visor. ”Ready to see what my place looks like?” she smirked even though he couldn't see it.

Killian grinned, and climbed on behind her, putting his arms around her waist. "If anyone sees us, I'm in trouble." was his only response. He chuckled softly.

Jade bit her lip to keep from laughing but she gave a brief nod as she revved the engine. ”Then I’ll try to make this a fast ride.” she assured. ”In the meantime, keep your head down and hold on tight.” she warned before taking off quickly.

Killian sighed, and buried his face in her shoulder. "That far enough down, or should I go lower?" he asked, voice muffled and shaking with laughter.

Jade didn't verbally reply to his joke but she did smile as she wove effortlessly through traffic. Seeing a stoplight ahead, she flipped a switch near her thumb.
//All green ahead.//

Killian kept his arms around her waist and his face against her shoulder.

It took a few minutes even with her override on the lights before they arrived in an abandoned neighborhood near the warehouse district. Jade flicked a special light in her headlight, triggering a garage door to open. She slowed down and pulled in. ”We’re here.”
