It felt odd to be in a vehicle and not be driving. Hakkai couldn't remember the last time he'd just ridden in Jeep excepting grievous injuries, and he didn't remember most of those rides, period.

Had Albel known Hakkai better, he'd know better than to assume Hakkai was anything like normal. At the moment, for instance, he was more than happy to pick at his 'breakfast' (and really, had no one heard of rice here?) and watch the trees go by in silence.

It was a good thing Albel didn't care.
