Gage for the ask me anything! If you don’t do DLC characters then Nick Valentine please and Butch from FO3❤️

Thank you for requests! Another Anon sent me an ask with 2/3 of the characters and with Old Long Fellow so I'll post that soon for them. In the meanwhile, please enjoy. CW for Butch: Child abuse. Triggering content below the cut.

Nick Valentine

Ever since he was a young boy he's had a knack for investigating.

First got into introduction to it was family game night, where they had one of those fake investigation game thingies. He got it pretty fast, much to his families dismay. They got some more, and he only got better.

Started to watch detective and crime shows and movies and he'd often pick up on the culprit quickly. Listened to true crime radio shows too.

When he was 16, his neighbour hired to him to investigate if her husband was cheating on him. He found out and got photo evidence. The husband was cheating and he got paid handsomely for finding out.

Frequently corresponds with DiMA, exchanging letters and parcels. He tries to visit at least once a year. DiMA still tries to convince him to stay.

One time while they were staying, DiMA found one of those investigation games. A whole bunch of Synthes and DiMA tried to figure it out, Nick sat there watching and helping whenever he could. He ending up bringing it back to the Commonwealth with him.

Pre-War Nick was pretty close with Jennifer's nephew, becoming an uncle figure. There bond only got got stronger after Jenny got murdered. Nick and Little Shaun now share this bond.

His internal fans speed up and get really loud when he's flustered of caught of guard. If it's really quiet and you get up nice and close you could almost hear a mechanical heartbeat.

Porter Gage

I haven't played or watched too much on Nuka-world, so forgive me if I have anything off.

Gouged out his own eye. He was dared to prove his courage, loyalty and balls.

His brother is Red-eye. They were both adopted into the same raider family. They also have sister and another younger brother who were birthed into the ranks. The Sister and brother died in one of the raids, but Red Eye and Gage made it to Nuka World.

Doesn't like the taste of Nuka-Cola, drinking it so much as made him miserable. He's so tired of using it to marinade meat. He's so tired of the same fizzy texture. He's so tired of the taste, the colour, everything.

Tends to help out with agriculture and farming considering his roots.

Is debating betraying the SoSu considering their status with the Minutemen, dissatisfied at the recent information. He's also planning a full scale invasion of the Commonwealth.

He also wanted Nuka World too himself as well, so he has Red-Eye spy on SoSu.

Butch DeLoria

Content Warnings for Child Abuse the cut.

His dad ran off to Vegas. Growing up his mother would warn him about gambling, Chems and alcohol. Also bares a striking resemblance to his father, his mother resents him for it.

When he was a young child, he'd often ""run away"" from their room and ask to sleep for the night. He'd end up frequently having sleep overs with other kids and spend more time at theirs than his'.

Was really hoping to get a mechanic on the G.O.A.T and absolutely hated being a barber at first. However, he really like doing his hair and got really good it, so he excelled in his training much to his dismay.

Opened his own barber shop in Rivet City and people from all over, and I mean all over come to see him and to get a haircut. His skills are insane.

Listens to a lot of Elvis and can do a few of his dance moves.

Big comic book nerd despite bullying a lot of kids in the vault about comics. He's a grognak kinda guy I reckon.

Helps MacCready out too and knew him as a kid. He often visits little Duncan and brings him lollies, sweets, sodas and comics. He'll read Duncan the letters MacCready sends him in silly voices to get him to laugh.

Big ol' softie, wants a wife and to settle down in a family but his past experiences and absent father makes him second guess himself. He has a dog though.

He got counselling from James to deal with his trauma. Also apologised to the LW and Amata too.

Happy to leave the vault and never come back!

Continued below cut

He'd run to the guards and overseer and tell them about everything, most of the guards wanted to help him and would let him stay around them. They did everything in their power to get him help.

but when the overseer confronted his mother about she denied everything and said that he was lying.

He was not. Could you hear it.

Mistress Jenny has sent food. Do you mind the company?

It would be welcome.

What you did that day, turning the pistol over to the redcoats... It was very brave.

'Twas the only thing I could do.

Thank you for the barbering.

'Twas no bother. I leave tomorrow.

Take the books back to Lallybroch. Bury the rest. Stay out of sight. I'm gonna wash up in the river.

Whose idea was this? Yours or my sister's? Did she think I'd change my mind?

Does it matter?

No. It doesn't matter because it's not gonna happen. If you won't leave, then I'll have to.

Sir. Your sister didna ask me to do what I'm doin'. I ken well enough what ye're thinking, for I saw your lady and how it was between the two of ye. And it's not my mind to make ye feel ye've betrayed that. What I want is to share something different. Something less, mayhap... But something we both need. Something to keep us whole, as we move forward in this life.

I've no done this in a very long time.

Neither have I. You can look at me if you'd like.

Ye're a bonny lass. It's just something I always do.

Finally got all these folks drawn up.

Everyone, meet the new version of the Higgsbury Family that will be appearing in To Who Knows Where. Allow me to give you brief introductions to everyone here. (And for those who read my older works, you might see some familiar faces too!)

Warren B. Higgsbury - Wilson's older brother and heir to the family barber shop business. He's a kind man with a good head on his shoulders and very gifted in his barber shop skills. He's always looking out for those around him, especially his younger brother. He's currently living in New York, running the new shop the family decided to open up in America as a means of expanding the business. He's doing well for himself and showing promise as an heir.

Jenny Higgsbury - Warren's wife. A smart woman with incredible skills in sewing and fashion design. Very supportive of her husband and looking forward to being a mother. (They both just found out recently she is with child. Needless to say both are ecstatic.) She's currently running a small business selling outfits of her own design and providing repair work for those in need. (She even does charity work on occasion for those who can't afford higher end clothing. Especially to young orphans.)

Edward Halver - Warren and Wilson's private tutor. This man taught the boys how to be proper gentlemen, social skills and how to play instruments. (In particular the piano and violin. Warren favoring the piano and Wilson favoring the violin.) Outside of tutoring, Edward is professional pianist and violinist. On stage, he truly comes alive with his music. On occasion, Edward has been mistaken for being Wilson and Warren's father though he is quick to correct people on that. (Mainly as a means of not upsetting William and Hilda. In truth... he often does view the boys as if they were his own sons.)

Cecelia Halver - Warren and Wilson's nanny. Cecelia has been looking after the boys since the moment they were born. Literally, both when Warren and Wilson were born they were immediately handed off to her to deal with since their mother wanted nothing to do with raising them. Cecelia doted on both boys like they were her own sons and did her best to raise them up right alongside her husband. She taught them basic school subjects like reading and writing and wanted to make sure despite the situation they were in, that they knew there was someone who loved them dearly. Often times... she truly wishes that Warren and Wilson were hers.

William B. Higgsbury - Warren and Wilson's father. Current owner of the family barber shop business. He's very much a man focused solely on his business and wanting to have a legacy he can be proud of in regards to his sons. As far as he's concerned, his sons are just security for the business to continue on after he retires. He doesn't really have any close bond with either. During public events and parties he'll put on the façade of being close but it's all for appearances. And truly... the only son he is proud of is Warren. Wilson on the other hand... is an embarrassment. And he's not afraid to voice the fact he views him as embarrassment. Especially in front of the man himself.

Hilda Higgsbury - Warren and Wilson's mother. Though arguably, least from the boy's perspective, only regarded as their mother since she was the one who gave birth to them. Far as they're concerned, she is not what they would call a proper mother. Hilda is very much a woman more concerned about her status and prefers to spend her time attending parties, high social events and socializing with her friends. The only reason she agreed to have children was for business security. Under the condition she didn't have to raise them and that two was the limit. (Basically just a business agreement with her husband. It's a wonder if they actually like each other.) Just like William, she'll put on the façade of being close with the boys, including saying she did all the hard work Cecelia did. ("Tch, oh that woman... Yes, she's just help but she's rubbish at her job. I do all the real work around here.") Though also like William, isn't afraid to voice how much she views Wilson as an embarrassment to the family name.

And that's everyone for the time being. More details about these folks later but for now, I hope you've enjoyed what you've read and I'll catch ya on the next one.

#don't starve #don't starve together #don't starve oc #warren b. higgsbury #jenny higgsbury #edward halver #cecelia halver #william b. higgsbury #hilda higgsbury #to who knows where

TIL about Elizabeth "Bessie" Coleman, a badass aviation pioneer who was the first Black and Native American woman to obtain a pilot's licence. Not sure if the Americans of Tumblr already know about her, but as a Brit I unfortunately did not until now, so I wanted to share her story here! (Image IDs in alt text.)

Born in Texas on January 26, 1892, Bessie was the tenth of thirteen children in a family of sharecroppers. From the age of six, she attended a small, segregated school, where she excelled as a student and eventually won a scholarship to the Missionary Baptist Church School aged 12. When she turned 18, she moved to Langston, Oklahoma to study at the Oklahoma Colored Agricultural and Normal University, but had to drop out after one semester due to financial difficulties and returned to work at the acorn fields back home.

When she was 24, Bessie moved to Chicago, Illinois and worked as a manicurist in a barber shop, where she discovered her passion for aviation after hearing the stories of some of the clients, who had been pilots during World War One. She then decided to become a pilot herself, taking on a second job to save up for flight school. However, no flight schools in the US would admit Black or women students, so another of the barber shop's clients, Robert Abbott - a Black philanthropist and publisher of the Chicago Defender newspaper - suggested that she move to France and learn to fly there. He and Jesse Binga, another Black philanthropist and banker, gave her the financial support to do this, so in November 1920, Bessie set off for France to begin her training.

On June 15, 1921, Bessie Coleman was awarded an international pilot's licence by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale, becoming both the first Black woman and the first American to do so. Following this, she returned to the US, but found it difficult to make a living as a pilot, as commercial flight did not yet exist - her only option was to become a stunt (aerobatic) pilot. Once again, the US's racism and misogyny prevented her from receiving stunt training there, so in 1922 she went back to France, and by September that year was back home again for her first stunt flight. On September 3, Labor Day, she became the first Black woman to stage a public flight in the US, flying at a show sponsored by the Chicago Defender and held in honour of the veterans of the all-Black 369th Infantry Regiment of WWI.

Bessie soon became a media sensation, earning herself the nickname "Queen Bess" and performing at air shows across the US and Europe in a Curtiss JN-4 "Jenny" biplane (example pictured above). She refused to fly at any shows that did not permit Black people to attend, and went on speaking tours at schools and churches to encourage fellow Black aspiring aviators to take to the skies. Her dream was to open a flight school to train Black pilots, and she tirelessly raised money for this with her shows.

Sadly, on April 30, 1926, while flying with her mechanic William D. Wills, Bessie's plane unexpectedly went out of control and dove into the ground, killing both of them. An investigation revealed that this had been caused by a wrench that had been accidentally left in the plane and had jammed its controls. It was a devastating loss, and her funeral, which was held in Chicago and led by Ida B. Wells, was attended by around 10,000 people. In 1929, the Bessie Coleman Aero Club was founded to continue her work promoting Black participation in aviation, and to this day there are several scholarships in her name aimed at high school students interested in careers in aviation.

"I knew we had no aviators, so I thought it my duty to risk my life to learn." - Bessie Coleman

Fly high, Queen Bess, blue skies forever! 🛩💙

#aviation #aviation history #black history #bessie coleman #planeposting #my writing #long post #planes ily #the only source not linked here (for the quote at the end) is The Aircraft Book by DK cos i have the physical copy #but that's where i first heard of her and i got genuinely emotional okay #as the only mixed/black + queer person who went through the atc recruitment process i just went thru i felt 1000% like the odd one out #it felt like the odds were very much stacked against me #but that's what it's like for us (in white majority countries anyway) so if i have to be my own sort of pioneer then so be it #we belong in aviation PERIOD #in the cockpit or the tower or the TRACON or the hangar or on the ground at the airport or anywhere else #we have always been here #and we will always be here #and we can fucking do it!!!!#sorry for any mistakes or shit writing i have covid rn dkljfklfslkja

Series MasterList - Main Masterlist

Two weeks prior… Saturday

There are two things Ransom hates: losing and Steve Rogers. The man had been a thorn in his side for the last couple of years, almost beating him for championships, almost having his girl. If he thought he could murder the bastard and get away with it, he would. He was even costing him sleep. He had dreamt that he had Liv underneath him, moaning his name like she used to when Rogers interrupted them in her trailer. As soon as he saw the fucker, he woke up, hard and pissed. He decided to take a walk around the hotel. As he went to check his phone, he heard a door open. He moved behind a doorway and peak over.

And fury consumed him.

Rogers was coming out the door, hair disheveled, big smile on his face. Small hands pull him back and turn him around. The couple kiss and Ransom sees it as an opportunity to fuck Rogers by showing it to Liv. Except when Rogers pulls away, it's Liv he sees in the room. He took a series of photos and decided that this was the perfect opportunity.

After Ransom gets his coffee, he sent a message to Lance, Lloyd and Suzanne.

Have news. Meet in my room.

As Ransom stood in the window, looking over the Mexico City skyline, he smiled to himself. A plan was forming, and he was confident it could work. A knock brought him out of his thoughts, and he went to the door. He opened it and ushered everyone in. “What is going on Ranny?” Suzanne whined.

“Shut the fuck up Suzy,” Ransom growled. “I have some important shit so can it.” He picked up his phone and pulled up the photos. “I found a way to fuck over Rogers and get rid of Olivia.” He showed the group the pictures.

“Holy fuck!” Lance looked up at Ransom. “Why are you smiling?”

“Because if the FIA made Rogers sign the same contract as me, there is a non-fraternization clause. If that’s the case, then this,” picking up the phone, “is our way to getting rid of Rogers, Olivia, Barnes and the whole Red Bull team. We can pick up their sponsors, their money and really be the top team in F1. And if it doesn’t, well then it just fucks them over and I’m ok with that too.” Ransom bite into the Danish he had.

Lloyd started to laugh. “Damm sunshine, you are going to make Mercedes unstoppable.” He looked at the photos. “I have a contact at ESPN. Let’s do this. That little beauty insulted me, that prick almost has the championship.” Lloyd growled. “Time for this love story to end.”

Las Vegas – Thursday before race

Andy is sitting inside the main office for FIA at the Las Vegas track. He was sitting, staring out to Las Vegas skyline, wondering what fresh hell he was being sent to. The door opened but he didn’t turn. “Mr. Barber?” That’s when he turned.

Jenny Williams stood in the doorway. “Jenny?”

“Hi Andy.” She looked tired but determined.

He hugged the oldest Williams girl. “What are you doing here Jen?”

“I’m representing Livie for the investigation. You can only represent one of them, according to the guidelines, but we need to figure out if they violated their contracts with Red Bull or the FIA.”

“Right.” Andy looked down at the binders in front of him. “I’ve looked over Rogers’s contract. There is nothing in his contract that states he can’t have a consensual relationship with another driver. Steve’s reputation has been clean.”

“Then why are the reports indicating he’s violating a morality clause?” Jenny pulled a report from ESPN.

“Contracts have a behavioral morality clause, like for drunken behavior, fighting, that sort of thing.” Andy stood up and started to pace. “The only one I’ve heard who had an amendment to theirs was Drysdale when Olivia joined the drivers’ league. Since they had history, the FIA added the clause, under Drysdale’s objections, of course.”

Jenny wrote that down. “Liv doesn’t have that clause, but this still won’t lose its teeth. They are going to call for collusion.”

“They are teammates. Their main goal is to win, for the team to win. It's bullshit Jenny.” Andy was fuming.

“And that’s the argument I will start with.” Jenny put her pen down. “But since they were hiding, it looks bad.”

Andy put his hands on his hips and bowed his head. “I know Steve. I know how much he hated her before he gave into his feelings. And Liv, she just wouldn’t hook up with another driver. I don’t know how they can suddenly love each other.”

Jenny could see how much Andy cared for his drivers but was blind. “You obviously didn’t see them at dad’s funeral. Steve was her support when she couldn’t keep going. When she needed someone to take care of her when she felt all alone. I know he was there, at the hospital, after her accident. When he came in to see her and said goodbye to her because he wanted her to succeed.”

“He did?”

“Of course, he did. Andy, they have been going in circles because of misunderstandings and assumptions. They fought their way to this point.” Jenny massaged her temples. “Red Bull records all of the team's radio transmissions, right?”

“Yes,” Andy said slowly.

“Perfect. And can Steve and Liv communicate to each other?”

“No, they can only hear if we open a channel to them both, but that rarely happens.”

“What about in Austin?”

Andy riffled through some papers. “Here, the transcript of the race. Liv and Steve never talked. The only time they were even close to each other in the race was when Liv passed him after he spun. He asked if he could catch her.”

“Then this is proof that they didn’t conspire.” Jenny closed her notebook. “Dad would have wanted them to win. Not just the race or the championship. But in love too.”

As Jenny and Andy were meeting, Liv, Steve, Nat, Bucky, Sam, Frank and Tony were all in Liv’s suite, discussing the inquiry.

“It’s not fair,” Liv said as she paced the length of the room. Everyone else was sitting, watching her go back and forth. “They are doing this because I’m a woman.”

“Baby, if that were true, you could sue the pants off the organization,” Steve replied in an attempt to calm her.

“Bug, come on, sit,” Frank said, patting the seat between himself and Steve.

“I can’t.” Olivia was pacing to keep other emotions from emerging. “What if they say my points are invalid. What if they say Steve’s are? That would mean he would lose the championship and then we would lose the team one. I would be a pariah and I’ll never get to race again.”

Nat sighed. “Liv, none of that is going to happen. Jenny is here to help with that, and you know she’ll put that big lawyer brain into full gear. Andy is going to make sure nothing happens. You just have to stay calm.”

“Maybe I should quit.” Olivia’s words stunned the room. “Maybe if I wasn’t here anymore, they will stop the inquiry and let Steve keep his points and then…” she swallowed... “then he could finish the season and win.” She finally stopped pacing when she reached the window and looked at the city below.

“Could you guys give us the room, please?” Steve’s voice was stern, and no one questioned the request. Only Bucky stopped to squeeze Steve’s shoulder before leaving the room. “Olivia, come sit with me.” She refused to acknowledge him. “Olivia, right now.” She looked up and he could see for the first time that there were tears in her eyes. “Oh baby,” his tone softens. He could see how much this was tearing her up inside. He went to her and wrapped his arms around her as she finally cried.

“Stevie, I didn’t mean… this all my…” he cut her off.

“Sweetheart, this is not your fault. We didn’t do anything wrong. The press is blowing this up because of who we are.” He kissed her forehead. “Baby, look at me.” Her pink-ringed eyes looked up at him. “Our life, this relationship goes beyond the track. I would do anything for you. I would walk away right now just to see you smile. The championship doesn’t mean anything if you are not right there with me. I love you so much that it hurts to be away from you. So don’t quit, don’t leave. I’ll follow you anywhere.”

“Really?”

“Livie, you are my endgame.”

“I am?” Her voice cracked.

“You are baby. I knew that from our first kiss.”

Liv smiled. “I knew from that moment too.”

Steve kissed her softly, making sure to be gentle, to let her feel all the love he had for her. This girl who came in like a breath of fresh air. He could lie all he wanted but their first kiss wasn’t when he fell in love with her. It was the first day they really met. Her eyes blazed at him, showing the spark of fierceness, the way she didn’t back down, because she knew her worth. She put him under her spell right then. No matter how much he fought it, he has been in love with Olivia Williams for far longer than anyone knew. She was his home. He would gladly give up racing to be with her and help her achieve every goal.

They stayed in that night. They ordered room service and kept to themselves, needing those final moments of peace before the flurry of press and fans descended upon them.

Steve took his time, taking her apart, piece by piece, as he made love to his girl. It was soft, it was sweet, it was everything they needed that night. As she slept, a sheet covering her torso, Steve looked out to the Vegas night sky. The flashing lights of the strip combined with the muted sounds provided the perfect lullaby that lulled Liv to sleep but kept Steve awake. He wanted nothing more than to wake up from this nightmare. He wanted Liv and himself to just race like before and finish on top, just like he planned. He had no idea what was instore for them on the track. He just hoped that they still had each other at the end of it.

Andy started Sunday with a team meeting. “I know this weekend has been rough on everyone.” He saw the crestfallen face of Liv and Steve, who sat in the back, holding hands. “Especially our drivers. I have spoken to the Bartons, and they are standing behind Steve and Olivia. Our contracts don’t specifically state that they couldn’t have a relationship and we are standing behind that.”

He cleared his throat as some of the crew began to speak. “Just a sec. With that said, this doesn’t mean the FIA won’t be investigating. They have informed us that they will start after today’s race. What they find and what punishments will be endured are unknown, but I know this, we will appeal against any negative decisions made towards the drivers and the team. We are one family here and we will continue that way. Drivers, let’s get you warmed up. Crew chiefs, a word. Everyone else, please do your final checks before the race starts.”

Liv heads back into her garage and climbs up to her secret loft area. She pulls out her phone and scrolls through all of the headlines.

OLIVIA AND STEVE: RACING’S NEW ROYAL COUPLE UNDER INVESTIGATION

WILL THEY LAST? LIV WILLIAMS AND STEVE ROGERS IN TROUBLE ALREADY, CLAIMS SOURCE

Liv could feel the tears threatening to fall. One article accused her of using her father’s name while another claimed that she was using Steve to take his spot. Another said she was doing it to get back at Ransom and how heartbroken he is. Others say she was paying off officials for her win.

“You know,” her head whipped around to see her favorite ocean blue eyes staring at her, “if you let them get into your head, you are just going to prove them right.” Steve crawled as best he could to laid down beside her.

“Steve, they are saying I didn’t win on my own. That Andy paid people off so I could win. How could they say that? Why would they tell these lies?”

“I don’t know, love.” He tucked her hair behind her ear. “But you have to ignore it. You need to put your game face on and show them how wrong they are.”

“Promise me. Promise me that you won’t leave me when they tear me down.”

“Never.” He kissed her. “C’mon, let’s kick this field’s ass and show them we are an unstoppable force.”

The race went well for Red Bull with Steve and Liv finishing one-three with Charles in the middle. The win was somber, with Liv just going through the motions. As the drivers sat down in the press room, the tension became palpable. The standard F1 reporters asked the first questions, like how the race was, was the track good, stuff like that. It wasn’t until the floor was opened to the other reporters that Steve figured out what was wrong.

The first reporter stood, “Adam Schefter, ESPN. Congratulations Steve on the win.”

“Thanks.”

“Was it team orders that kept you in the lead?”

“No, no orders were given.” Steve clenched his jaw. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Liv visibly tense.

“Williams had the chance to pass a couple of times. Was she told to stand down?”

Steve wasn’t sure what to say before Liv spoke up. “I wasn’t told to do anything. Rogers is an excellent driver, and I couldn’t get around him.”

The next reporter, Maria Smith from AP Sports moved on to Charles. Liv zoned out of the question until she heard. “Is it true that you had a previous relationship with Miss Williams?” Her heart stopped.

Charles took a sip of water to calm himself before answering. “I don’t know what that question has to do with the race.” He cocked an eyebrow at the woman, who blushed and sat.

“I would like that answer,” a man from NBC Sports stood up. “Did you have a relationship with Miss Williams that could affect whether she allowed you to score more points?”

Liv bit her lip to stop from screaming at the man and keep the tears at bay. Charles looked at Liv to see her broken expression and grew angry. “Olivia and I are friends, just like most of the drivers here are. She wouldn't give us an edge if she can help it. She is here to race and to win, that’s it. This line of questions is inappropriate.”

“So, you are saying that there is not a relationship between you and her, but you are ok that a relationship formed between her and Rogers?” The reporter was egging them on, and Steve knew it.

He stood up, palms down on the desk in front of him. “Our relationship is none of your business. Olivia and I...” he stopped to look at her and she watched him with heartbroken eyes. “Olivia and I are in a committed relationship. I love this woman, and I will not sit here and allow you to try and take her apart. She is a fantastic racer, a history maker, a trailblazer. She has done it all while men like you tried to keep her down. Fuck, even I tried to keep her down, but she fought back for everything she has earned. She is respected among her colleagues, and she has done her job. These interviews are over.”

He stepped back, went to Olivia and took her hand and walked her out of the press room, while questions were flung at them. Charles followed and Olivia buried her head in Steve’s chest. “I am so sorry Livie,” Charles said.

“Thank you for standing up for her,” Steve said, when he could feel the sobs coming from her.

“We’ll all stand up for her, punk.” Steve looked up to see Bucky with the other drivers. They all patted Liv’s back as they marched into the press room. Steve heard Bucky as he declared with the other drivers that they would no longer be interviewing them bar official statements for their treatment of Olivia. Conspicuously absent are the Mercedes drivers.

As the group walked away, Andy and Jenny came up to the couple. “Great race, guys but I have some news.” Andy swallowed. “The FIA has decided to open an official investigation. They have a complaint and, well, with the pictures, they had no other choice. I’m sorry Liv but you are suspended pending the conclusion of the investigation.”

“But there are only two races left,” Steve complained.

“I understand but...” Liv silenced him with her hand.

“It’s ok Andy. Did we ask for expedition?” Jenny answered with a nod. “Well, then I will head home to California. Doesn’t look like any reason to travel to Brazil at this point.” Steve gripped her hand and walked with her.

“I won’t leave your side Love Bug.”

“But the championship...”

“There is nothing bigger than us right now.”
