(con. from Outer Edges)
Peri Winkle slowed the speed of his scooter as he approached the edge of town. The practice he had that morning had left him with a confidence about driving the machine, though he was certainly no expert at this time. However, he was in a city and he couldn't afford speeding and possibly running someone or something over. Let alone, he probably shouldn't have even fathomed the thought of speeding with such a precious treasure, Jewel, riding with him.
It took minutes to reach the Cafe, and Peri pulled the scooter to a halt in front of the hotspot. Taking helmet off, and turning off the ignition, Peri held open the door for the yellow peg before following inside himself.

Jewel nodded to Peri with a half-forced smile as she stepped down from the scooter. Her hair was a bit of a mess and her wings disheveled from the ride, but she did her best to show her beau some encouragement and support.
"You're.. *ahem* getting better with that, dear.." She said with a smile and a hopeful look. She paused to shake her mane free of its snarls and assume whatever position it would along her neck.
Stepping a few feet from the scooter, she looked at Peri, "Shall we?"

((Don't mind me unless you want to...)) Breezie, whom was walking down the streets of Ponyville, saw quite the intereting sight - a scooter. "It's the same manufacturer as mine...", she muttered, examining the print across the handlebars. "I wonder what this model's like..." With that, the white mare stepped closer to examine the vehicle. ((If you want her to take it for a test drive, tell me. If not, I'll just have Breezie walk away...)) ((Oh - no, I'm not assumiong that would be the implied "robbery".  )) |

(lol, you can "borrow it" for a short time, the scooter needs to create mayhem later so Coon can make a steal)
Peri nodded and followed inside. He'd been there well enough to know of where menus were stacked and made no hesitation in taking two before following Jewel to a seating of her liking. He handed over one of the menus and began to scroll down a list of breakfast items.
"Hmm....ooh, this sounds good. French toast topped with rainbowberry syrup, a dollop of whip cream, and garnished with black raspberries." The actor could feel his mouth water. How long had it been since he'd had raspberries, or tasted anything remotely rainbowberry?

((Okay - maybe a hubbub over the missing scooter can serve as the distraction.  )) Running her fingers over the gleaming handlebars, Breezie was pleased to see that the scooter was well taken care of. However, she felt a pang of jealousy as she recognised it to be somewhat newer of a model than her own scooter. "Oh well", she said aloud to herself, "I'm sure it's nowhere near as fast!" But as the white mare turned to walk away, a voice in her head said, But you don't know that, do you?"Hmm..." Breezie wanted to put all uncertainties to rest, so she looked around and climbed aboard the scooter. "Just a short ride - maybe see the top speed - they won't even notice it's gone...", she muttered to herself as she tucked a strand of yellow hair behind her ear. When she started the scooter, it lurched forward faster than she'd planned on the sloped street. Breezie's stomach twisted in fear for an instant - she'd only ever driven her own scooter before. By then she had lost her wits and couldn't calm herself down to stop the rapidly accelerating vehicle, and she turned the scooter far too sharply, causing the tires to make a horrible squeal. "Uh...", she tried to start to talk to herself, which usually helped out in any situation, but instead found herself calling out to pedestrians on the streets of Ponyville. "Uh...HELP!" |

From her seat across from Peri, Jewel looked over the menu before her, tipping it up so her face was hidden. She scanned the list of breakfast items, "Ohh.."
Tipping down the menu slightly so only her mischievious eyes could be seen, the golden peg grinned at the actor. After another glance, she folded the menu and looked at her beau with a smile, "They have... waffles!"

"Everybody loves waffles!," Peri Winkle chuckled. He wondered, did the pancake loving Razz have a place in his heart for waffles too? Perhaps the world may never know. Peri, in a stroke of playful antics, lifted his menu up in the manor Jewel did. "This would be perfect for battle ship...once I get a paper football I'm gonna try and sink something on your side, you know." (ooc: "Raven, I know you like waffles!" "More than life itself." Cyborg and waffles, a beautiful relationship) |

((  Another Titan's fan! Long live Terra(who they'll probably never bring back - they just said they could because killing a character like that is too violent for a kids' show  )! ...Yah, so there's nothing to add for Breezie so I'll just let you keep on with your storyline until someone notices the scooter's gone! )) |

"This would be perfect for battle ship...once I get a paper football I'm gonna try and sink something on your side, you know."
"Aye," Jewel replied, taking on a pirate dialect, "Ye could try, matey.. but I'll have ye know this is the fastest ship in the whole Cafe!" She grinned, chuckling slightly and still only showing her eyes. She sobered slightly when the waiter came to take their menus. The pegasus blushed as the waiter smiled at her, and put her menu down when he asked what she'd like.
"Waffles, please," She smiled, "With strawberries? And some orange juice."
((waffle waffle waffle... darnit I want waffles))

Peri was a bit miffed when he saw the other waiter managed the blush from Jewel. Though, could he truly blame other stallions for trying? Jewel was just that, a jewel, something pretty to see. Of course, there was more to Jewel than looks.
"I'll have the french toast with some milk." He, with a dejexted look, handed his menu back to him. "There goes my battle ship plan."

Jewel didn't catch the other's look, or much of the situation. She was busy hungrily eyeing the jelly packets placed in a holder near the napkins.
"There goes my battle ship plan."
"Ye wouldn't've lasted a second against me, matey," The pegasus winked with a smile. Mischief and youth which had been absent for quite some time shined beneath the surface of her eyes. The golden peg touched the actor's hoof with her own, attempting to tickle him, but looking oblivious all the same.

"Arg....if only me had me trusty eye patch! Then you'd be see'n a whole mess of sinkin' ships," Peri Winkle mocked the other's voice, winking his fake eye. It'd taken about a month after the battle, but Peri managed to replace the item. Sure enough, his boss wasn't too thrilled...about his eye, or his back injury, or the fact he hadn't been prepared with hsi script...
Well, the white stallion assumed his boss was over that if he'd let him take home the scooter. Peri Winkle nodded to himself as if to make a confirmation of this. Yes, his boss trusted him, and although he had been mad earlier, the situation couldn't be helped.
To say the least, the weird soap opera digest magazines that month after the battle had some very...unique stories involving the actor of Stalactite from the popular 'Following A Storm' series. Peri chuckled.
Subconsciously, and much as obliviously as Jewel had tickled his hoof, did Peri take her hoof and began rubbing circles gently on it. He could almost smell the french toast now...

((Poor Peri! He'll be so worried over the missing scooter. But if you're waiting for Breezie to accidentally crash it, I just don't have the heart!))

Jewel, smiling and about to speak, paused with her mouth slightly open as the waiter returned with their orders. The pegasus withdrew her hoof from the actor to make room for the plates that were being set down.
"For the lady," The waiter said with a charming smile, setting her waffles before her. Jewel smiled.
"And for you," He continued, serving Peri his french toast. "Enjoy!"
"MM waffles.." The golden peg smiled, looking up at Peri.

Peri Winkle was about to stifle some form of a snort, or mundane remark under his breath at the response of the waiter; however, his breakfast quickly captured his attention.
"Oh, blackberries, I've missed you so!," he swooned, taking one of the garnished berries and balancing it on his nose. His eye kept a constant watch on the item, and once he'd steadied it right, Peri nipped at it and managed to snatch it from the air.
He grinned back at Jewel. "Learned it on the set...there was a circus theme plot a couple years back. That's about all I could do though.," the actor made small conversation. "It was a little embarrassing when my coworker up staged me and juggled an orange, an apple, two lemons, and my glass eye in front of the producers."
Peri Winkle shook his head with a smug smile on his lips in remembrance.
(Go ahead and crash it. It's from the producers of the soap opera he works for. They can fund for another one, besides, there's another one on the set they shoot with so it's not a total loss).
