Log;

The City looked like it might still be sleeping, a little - or at least thinking about dozing off. The morning had just made up its mind to get going, and the air was still very quiet, light just barely illuminating the endless circling of the carousel. Within another moment, though, the carousel was lit by the fiery ball that plunged to the earth next to it, throwing up chunks of pavement and splinters of the rock beneath. The crater was surprisingly small when you considered that the metallic ball inside it must have dropped from orbit. It was a perfect shell for its unlikely meteorite, which furtively unrolled itself and looked around frantically. Making that much noise was never a good thing, it was aware - attracting attention was the last thing it wanted to do.

A moment later, hopefully before anyone would have thought to look out or investigate, a sleek and suspiciously unblemished car that some would know to call a Camaro sat next to the wreckage of the street. It was trying to radiate innocence as it got its bearings. It was failing.

"Ah, yeah, that happens a lot," Arion said, noticing they were back where they started. "Stuff doesn't really stay in one place; I think I heard someone else say that the City doesn't exactly obey physics. Like it's supposed to be impossible to leave."

Arion smiled a bit wryly. "Yeah, that's the City. Doesn't even have a name." Oh, right. "I'm Arion, by the way," he added. "D'you have a name?"

He grinned a bit at the song. "Nice to meet you, Bumblebee."

At the sound of the lock, Arion took that as his cue to open the door. "Um...thanks for the ride." He gave a quick look around when he got out, wondering where exactly he had ended up. Didn't really matter, he figured; it'd be easy enough to get back to his apartment. "Guess I'll see you around!"

With an awkward wave, Arion glanced around at the alleyway's entrance. He quickly chose a direction and vanished from sight.
