Hey... I'm almost twenty... I think.

[Yeah, sounded right. They had to have been out in space for like a year back home, right? And they did just have Lance's birthday... and... eh. Whatever.]

Either way, it helps that I made a big racket on that asteroid belt system we were in a while back. Being good at ATV racing apparently qualifies me for a license to drive a cab.

[Yeah... their little fun challenge against each other ended up turning into a way for Keith to earn some credits back there, too. He shrugged.]

I'll take it.

So, where were you headed?

You think?

[ There's a soft laugh there, but he understands. Keeping tracking time here - it's hard. Easy to loose it, not wanting to count the days because then it just feels like a prison. Or so it seemed to him. He made a soft sound as he thought about it for a second. ]

If you count my coma and 'jumping' in my home world, I turned thirty recently.

[ Surprise? ]

Huh... damn now I can't actually remember.

[ He flashed a grin. ]

Want to earn a big fare and just cruise me around the city for a bit? We can catch up.

Heh... yeah.

[It wasn't even just being in the Fleet, either. He'd left Earth maybe a year ago? But it was hard to tell between planet hopping and having to convert to an entirely new system of telling time with the Castle of Lions.]

So... you're around the same age Shiro... a little older, I guess. Shiro and I are like seven years apart.

[He quirked an eyebrow.]

Well, alright. As long as you're not forgetting somewhere you have to be.

[He smirked a bit, and pulled out into traffic.]

Seems about right. Shiro struck me as a little younger than myself, but not by much.

[ Why yes, he knew Shiro. He enjoyed talking to him actually. They had interesting conversations. ]

Nope, nowhere I need to be. Now I'm more interested in those skills that got you your license. It's to bad we can't go ATVing again. Our last race was fun!

[Keith wasn't surprised. Shiro was a social person... much more so than himself. He'd been a good 'poster boy' for the Garrison for a reason. Top pilot, sociable, polite, well-spoken, decorated... Even though he'd been kicked out, Keith was kind of glad he'd managed to avoid all that. As Shiro's protege, he'd been on par to surpass even Shiro's marks as a pilot, but he definitely was not someone that could have handled the attention without some sort of grounding force behind him.]

Yeah, it was. I haven't seen a place like that around here, yet, but I did find a skydiving place if you're looking for an adrenaline rush.

[Unfortunately, to keep his job, Keith had to behave as a driver at the moment. But, that didn't mean he wasn't quick to find the best routes through traffic. His instincts were sharp. Navigating a crowded street was a little like flying through an asteroid belt, and just as unpredictable.]
