Dwight stood, leaning against the side of his SUV, taking a moment to enjoy the cool breeze and the salty spray of the nearby waves. Having lived in Haven, on the coast of Maine for most of his life, there was something oddly comforting about ocean sounds and smells. And all the Fandom craziness had just gotten a bit too crazy at last, so he and Miguel had plotted and planned and decided there was only one solution - road trip!
So it was, he was now standing at the end of the causeway waiting for Miguel. He already had his duffle bag in the back along with a cooler. And as far he was concerned, Dwight was ready to leave the Fandom insanity behind him for a few days at least.
[NFB once they leave the causeway due to distance]

Date: 2021-11-19 11:00 pm (UTC)It had been way too long since things were easy, normal, predictable. A road trip to who knew where, with no rules or schedule or check list might actually be exactly what they both needed.

Date: 2021-11-19 11:04 pm (UTC)Course, Miguel was from far in the future. Dwight knew that much but not a lot else about what things were like in that time. He glanced over at Miguel as they pulled onto the main road.
"Still got regular gas guzzlers in your time? Or is it all flying cars and such?' he asked, somewhat teasingly but also still genuinely curious if mankind would ever manage to make good on those flying cars he had been promised as a kid growing up.

Date: 2021-11-19 11:32 pm (UTC)He gave a soft sigh and then continued.
"I mean yeah I had a few friends, but no one close. I'd probably just cause more issues in Haven, and lord knows they have enough to deal with already. So, it just seemed like it was time for a change. And so far, I'm thinking this isn't too bad of one," Dwight said, giving Miguel a smirk before turning his attention back to the road.

Date: 2021-11-19 11:48 pm (UTC)It was probably bad he missed Xina more than Dana, right? And Lyla more than either of them? He was such an ass sometimes.
"You, on the other hand," he said, pointing at Dwight accusingly, are barely sarcastic enough. You need to let it out more."
Yeah, take advice from the self-admitted ass.
