Well... it... won't be long. Right?

[ANXIOUS ANXIOUS...]

Though you should practice, right?

[hikikometro]

[........is he suggesting

what jackie thinks he's suggesting]

Yes. [YES PRACTICE.]

[howdoipokemon]

Just... be careful.

[DON'T TELL ANYONE WE'RE LETTING YOU DO THIS. Um. Cameron locks the fuck out of the door.]

Here, take the controls, I'll keep an eye on you.

[hikikometro]

[BEST DAY EVER]

Okay. [He can do this! He can do this. Really, he can! He's studied....!

HE IS SO EXCITED, CAMERON]

[howdoipokemon]

...Wow you're doing very well.

Oh, here, don't forget that--

[Cameron only has minor corrections to offer! He'll let you drive for almost the whole way.]

Okay, we're almost at the station, I'll take over again.

[hikikometro]

[omg

omg

omg so cool]

Okay. [AND THEN HE WILL WATCH WITH FASCINATION AS THEY PULL INTO THE STATION.

THEY DID IT, CAMERON!! THEY DID A THING AND DIDN'T DIE]

[howdoipokemon]

Hah... hah. You're really excited, huh.

[Oh right-- he grabs the microphone...thing... to speak over the intercoms.]

Please keep clear of the doors, and allow disembarking passengers to leave before boarding the train. Thank you.

[As he says that, he flips a switch to open the doors and let the passengers leave and board. He sounds all professional and cool when he's in this little cabin...]

[hikikometro]

[Ooooooh. Aaaaah. You're super cool, Cameron!!]

...Thank you. [Jackie smiles, pleased. Yaayyy driving!]

[howdoipokemon]

[He'll hang up and after the standard time he'll close the doors.]

Here, you can take off from this station. You know how, right?

[hikikometro]

Uh-huh.

[It's not that much different.... easy does it, though!!]

[howdoipokemon]

Well, easy does it... there you go.

[Yaaaay you're driving a train!]

You must've been waiting a long time for this.

[hikikometro]

Mmhmm. [BEST DAY EVER]

Boss Ingo was always nervous about it. [Fussy boss.] But I studied a lot.

[howdoipokemon]

Well, you're doing a good job. Maybe I... can talk to him about it.

[Yeah right Cameron you can't manage a sentence around your ~super cool~ boss.]

[hikikometro]

Would you? [Not gonna lie, Jackie's a little surprised at the offer.

Still.....!]

He'd listen to you more than me. [If... Cameron would even get around to saying anything. (Poor Cameron.)]

[howdoipokemon]

I... I... I promise I will!

[hikikometro]

[....c-cameron....


No, he didn't just giggle under his breath a little. Nuh-uh. It was the train tracks.]

Thanks.

[howdoipokemon]

[G-giggle, what, did he do something wrong?? Oh, you said thanks--]

Y-yeah, I'll see what I can do...

[hikikometro]

[Hee. Cameron, you are the best. Lettin' him drive the train till he has to get back to work, eee......!

Cameron is-- always so nervous, but... ...

H--ug. Hug? Will you let Jackie hug you?]

1/2

[howdoipokemon]

[--YEEK]

[howdoipokemon]

...!

[O-oh, it's Jackie. Duh, it's Jackie. Cameron calms some, hesitating before awkwardly hugging back. Never mind that anxious trembling...!]

[hikikometro]

[Aheheheh. Don't worry, he'll let go soon enough. He has to go be responsible after all!]

Okay. Bye, Cameron. [He makes to unlock the door and go, but he pauses to look back at Cameron again.]

Will I see you later today? [How long ya working for, bro?]

[howdoipokemon]

Huh? Uh... maybe. After I talk to Ingo, maybe...

[hikikometro]

Okay! Later, then.

[And he's out.

WELP, HAVE FUN CAMERON]

[howdoipokemon]

Bye...

[Oh god. Oh gosh oh golly.


Well first Cameron finishes his driving shift, and gets his paperwork in order. Then... he goes to the main office. Where Boss Ingo was working - oh there goes Boss Emmet, on his way home already like usual. So... it... was just him, all alone with Ingo...

...Oh god could he do it? Could he really - it was just a little thing, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. But they told Jackie no, so why would they do anything for Cameron?

No, Cameron, no! Can't start down that track, there's only acceleration until the end of the tracks - then a terrible crash! Don't go that route! Jackie is counting on you! With a shaky breath and feeble but present resolve, he knocked on the office door before opening it--]

O-oops I should have waited to open it--

[--Immediately babbling and shaking like a kicked dog.]

[infinitefrown]

Ah. [C....Cameron... sweetie... you came in here all by yourself??

time to go in As Gentle As Possible mode.] You're fine, Cameron. Please, do come in.

[hoo boy]
