What the hell was that?!" Tom asked, fighting his way to his feet.
"That..was not normal," Bram said, gripping the wheel like he was afraid to let go.
"I modified the engine somewhat," Renfield confessed. That grin started sneaking back onto his face.
"Modifications?" Gram asked. He slowly released his death grip on the steering wheel and turned around to look at Ren. "What modifications?"
"Modification." Ren really stressed the shun at the end of the word. "I just removed the governor. I told you some parts needed to come out. You were there when I did it!"
"The what?" I asked.
Bram stared at Renfield, his expression going completely slack. "You did what? I didn't see you...You did what?"
"What's a governor?"
"You didn't," Tom said, voice filled with awe. "You are not telling me that you left a piece of the engine behind on the ground. "
Renfield sighed and turned to address me, waving a hand casually. "The governor, on an airship engine, caps the maximum speed the engine can achieve. So,by taking the governor off, I've allowed us to go much faster."
"And then we'll blow up!" Bram yelled. "Because you took a safety valve off!"
"You've turned the ship into a freaking death trap!" Tom shouted.
"It isn't critical. We just have to be mindful of the engine pressure ourselves, that's all! Trust me, she can take it!
It was the pot of weapon at the end of the rainbow.
Lia HabelI stepped free of Isambard and shoved Michael in the chest. I caught him off guard. He tumbled to the dock, and rolled into the water with a splash.
"I hope there are zombie sharks in there and they bite you and you die!" I screamed.
You know, that bishop strategy you often use is incredibly devious, and I was just about to try a new way to block it before we were so rudely interrupted by the end of the world.
Lia HabelIf I never see you again, I shall die happy.
Lia HabelReady to meet my best friend, then?"
I clipped my vest together in front and smiled tightly. "Should I bring a bottle of wine? Any taboo topics? Politics, life after death?"
"Yeah, just stay away from that one entirely.
Merry Christmas, Medication for all!"
Lia HabelWe adhere to the principle 'what they don't know won't hurt them.
Lia HabelStay away from us!" Michael ordered. He was looking at Nora in horror, as if he couldn't believe what she was saying.
"No one's trying to get near you," Chas snorted. "I don't do living guys. Call me prejudiced.
You're about the stupidest thing on two legs.
