Mechanical Issues: Call to Lou
Permalink  
 

The bear was getting a bit too pissed off at the carbeurator, and he knows from past experience what happens if he tried to force it.  He wiped his hands off on his coveralls, and picked up the phone.  Punching in a number, he growled glaring at his bike.

"C'mon Lou, pick up..."  He waited until he heard the she-wolf on the other end.  "Hey, hey, Little Lou!"  His voice was a low tenor on the verge of baritone.  "That damn bike's giving me ulcers.  From now on, don't use your full strength to put the carbeurator on.  Now get your young ass over here, and help me get it off.  I don't want to touch it until the carb's off.  You know what happened last time."

Lou was currently under a motorcycle when the shop phone rang. And yes, you can be under a motorcycle, when it was up on a support rack and you were trying to weld the bottom frame. "Dammit...." she really needed to hire someone to deal with the phone and the desk, running the shop by herself was stretching her thin, especially with all the other Pack responsibilities that were coming up.

"I'm comin'... "she grumbled, as if the caller would be able to hear her. Shutting off the torch and wriggling out from under the frame before bouncing up to her feet, Torch was laid in its stand, free hand yanking off the welding mask as she darted to the phone, grabbing it mid ring.

"Feral Arts Custom Bikes..."

 "Hey, hey, Little Lou!"

She couldn't help the smile at Branson's voice, it had been a while since she'd seen the bear.

"That damn bike's giving me ulcers.  From now on, don't use your full strength to put the carbeurator on.  Now get your young ass over here, and help me get it off.  I don't want to touch it until the carb's off.  You know what happened last time."

"Hey now! Don't blame me. You probably stripped it trying to get it off." Her eyes rolled at his complaint, "Yeah, I remember last time. Took me three days to fix it all. Alright, I'll be right over. I need to talk to you anyway, need some supplies." Timing was everything, after working on Ash's blades she was out of her stock of silver and steel for blades and wanted to get more in case Ash liked her ideas. "Don't touch anything else. I'll make sure to bring a  cutting torch, just in case." She was teasing... mostly. She sometimes wondered if he knew the whole 'righty tighty, lefty loosey' rule.
She hung up the phone, packing the few necessary tools she knew she'd need to work on his bike, including the small MAPP Torch.... just in case and loaded them into the saddlebag of her Triumph. A quick moment to lock the shop and she was off to Branson's.

"Good.  See ya then.  Just come around to the bay, I'll get some cold drinks for us."  He hung up the phone, and went through to the main part of the shop.  There were a couple of customers, but things were usually slow around this time, until the fangs came out at night.

He headed to the fridge, and pulled out a couple of Cherry Cokes, and checked on his cashier.  "Donnie.  Lou's comin' over, so I'll be in the shop a little longer.  When Mary gets in, tell her where I am just in case she needs anything."  Mary was the kindred who helped run the store at night.  Young thing, but she handled the merch fairly well, and knew Kodi's policy on supes.

"Sure thing, Kode,"  Donnie replied.

With that, the kodiac went back into the bay to await the rumble of Lou's ride.

It didn't take long for Lou to get from her shop, the rumble of the Triumph's motor announcing her rpesence. She effortlessly guided the bike around to the bay, easing it to a halt before dismounting, a slender figure in a greasy set of oversized grey coveralls, red hair spilling in wild mane around her features. She tugged her toolkit from the saddlebag, making her way into the bay, a faint smile touching delicate features.

"Hey. So what'd you do to your bike now?" There wasn't many people she'd come out to do a house call for but he was one of them.
