"From pieces at my dad's dealership."

Clyde pats the top of it affectionately.

"A piece here, something from there, bit by bit I've been using what I know to make this bad lady. She's gonna make planes look slow when I find the right body for 'er."

"Well, sure. I need a frame and some welding equipment."

He's fully expecting it to just drop from the sky.

....

"...not in here! Outside."

"Well, I think the Frame might be a bit big to make. I haven't tried making anything that big. But I could probably get you a welding torch. Oh! And one of those super cool masks!"

Yeah, he was excited.

"I absolutely need both of those."

Clyde nods.

"And some gloves. Can you drop me like... parts of metal? That I can make into a frame?"

"Well, basically the frame is like, the skeleton of the car. We'll need either carbon steel or an aluminum alloy. I'm thinking the first, because if it's too light, my girl's gonna send it flying apart."

He nodded along.

"Okay. And what is Carbon Steel?"

Was it different than normal steel?

"Steel that's been alloyed with carbon."

This is a great explanation.

"I'll try. But fair warning. I'm still learning."

So he might get something else.

"Ehhhh....."

Clyde frowns.

"We'll stick with the gear, then. If you bring out the wrong stuff, that's pretty dangerous."

"Yeah, but I don't wanna die."

Clyde laughs.

"That's a big risk."

"Okay, yeah. I'm a fan of living too."

So they would have to do something else.

"So you are pretty good with cars? Maybe I can get you to make my Moped more badass!"

He'd nudge Clyde with his elbow.

"You own a moped?"

Clyde's eyebrows lift, and it's hard to tell if he's more amused or interested.

"Man, next thing you'll tell me you're getting a segway."

"But it's a moped!"

Clyde shakes his head.

"You need something manly. Intimidating. Terrifying..."

He slings an arm around Clyde and holds out a fist for him.

"You'd hook me up like that?"

Clyde is decidedly uncomfortable with this closeness, but hides it by bumping the fist with his own!

"Sure. I mean, that's what friends do, right?"
