Mercy Thompson has posed:
    Late on a Saturday, the shop is closed and Mercy has just been having a mostly relaxing day at home. The book she was reading finished hours ago. She's on the roof of her home with a spear she uses to spar with. Doing her drills of thrusts, blocks and footwork that she learned from the Themyscirian Embassy. But she's debating calling it early, maybe she should bake. Cookies are always good after all.

Kara Danvers has posed:
    There's a knock at her door after hours. Tap tap tap. The scent is Supergirl's, for someone with Mercy's senses. There's also the smell of oil from out there.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    Mercy goes still and sniffs the air as she looks over toward the knocking. "Just a moment Kara." It takes just a few seconds for Mercy to make her way and open up for the blonde. "Hi there, come on in." She will set the spear in the little bucket she keeps her umbrellas in and step back for Kara.

Kara Danvers has posed:
    She's not a blonde; she's a brunette. Wearing glasses. She's in her secret identity. She gives a faint smile as she moves to step inside. "Hey, Mercy. Sorry to bother you at this hour. I was hoping I might be able to ask you for a favor. Or trade a favor as the case might be."

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    The disguise causes Mercy to blink and frowns a moment until she figures it out. It happens at times when she trusts her nose and what her eyes say to her brain is something different. "I don't mind. I was up anyway and debating making some cookies or something." She will stretch her arms some and says, "So what can I do for you?"

Kara Danvers has posed:
    Kara gestures out to the parking lot, where there is...well, let's be honest, it's a beater. It's a car, a solid ten years old if not older. Compact car, nothing fancy at all, some dings and dents, and the smell of an engine burning oil.

"I'm getting a car, but this one really isn't in the best shape. I was hoping you might be able to...well, make it reliable? I don't have a lot of actual money, but I can trade you something that I could do with my abilities."

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    Mercy will look over and whistle and tries to get the best look she can from there to what make and model the car is. "I'm happy to help a friend out and see what I can do. Though I may be able to get you something better then that. That engine is really burning oil and that can often be a big warning." She motions to the car. "Let's see what you got."

Kara Danvers has posed:
    The car is an old 2013 Toyota Prius. A dark grey in color, and clearly driven hard. "Well, I don't want to cost you too much of your money or time. Just enough to make sure it won't break down. I can offer to move something, or take you somewhere; get something from somewhere...

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    Mercy looks and frowns at the make and model. "You just need a beater that can get you around? I'm guessing this is for the new look." Glancing over at the glasses and brown hair. "You're prettier as a blonde for what it is worth." She taps the car and asks, "What did you pay for this? Or where did you get it?" She will pop the hood and try to see what she can, but Toyotas are not her thing at all.

Kara Danvers has posed:
    "Yeah, pretty much. Supergirl doesn't need anything to get her around, but Kara Danvers needs to have a car to be believable. Something that could make an occasional commute from Metropolis to New York." She smiles at the compliment. "Thanks, I appreciate that. And I paid about eight hundred for it. Not much, but it runs."

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    Mercy winces at the prices, "ouch." She looks over the car and says. "If you want that. I can see about getting you something in trade if I talk to my contacts and trade this to someone to try and get you something I /can/ work on. Hell I got an old rabbit that I can give you in exchange for now that will do what you want. I feel this thing may be a parts car for someone." Mercy hates to give bad news to someone. "Far as payment I'm sure we can figure it out. Maybe you can tell me more about your history or something."

Kara Danvers has posed:
    "I don't have much money to pay in above this. If you can do something with it, that's fine. Or...well, you're the expert. It's why I came here. And I can tell you that, but I thought you'd want something more tangible in exchange." Kara shrugs her shoulder a little.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    "Well I mean I could aways ask for something else if you like." Mercy grins and taps the car and says, "We'll do some title signing over. Here and follow me. I always got a few spares around here. I'm sure I can get most of what you got into the car back with my contacts." Mercy will leads the way over to her sort of back lot and motion to an older 1982 red VW Rabbit convertible. "Maybe this will do you. It doesn't burn oil, it runs, and will likely suit your cover. How about we trade?"

Kara Danvers has posed:
    Kara walks on. "No, I'm happy to answer any questions about my past that you'd like to know." She moves into the back lot. "Sure!" She smiles. "This is honestly nicer than I thought. Is what I brought you going to be enough for this?"

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    "In flat monetary value? Afraid not. But I can make up the rest with you in some other way. That and I feel a bit guilty over the time I bit and hurt you when we were just doing a sparring match." Mercy will start to see about getting some things out of the rabbit and says, "Park your car here next to it. I'll pull this into the lot. We can go inside and sign the titles. I'll have you pay me $5 because that actually makes the title transfer cheaper for you then if I traded it or gave it to you. Stupid laws I know."
    Mercy will hop in and see about pulling her car out near the Toyota so that she can let it go for now. "You're on your own for licensing it but that shouldn't be too hard in Metro."

Kara Danvers has posed:
    Kara answers "I told you not to worry about that. It was an honest accident. And I took that much and more training before." She'll nod and then move out to the Prius so she can get it driven over near the other like Mercy asked her to. "I'm sure that'll be fine. Just a pain with all the paperwork."

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    "That's part of my life, messing with titles and the like." She will haul her stuff away toward the base of her stairs. "Get what you need out of the Prius and then come on up? Oh and bring your title. I'll show you how to sign one over and all that. Maybe we can bake cookies again together." Mercy grinning at the disguised blonde. with her teeth flashing.

Kara Danvers has posed:
    Kara replies "I just got it...I don't really have much in there." She does take her purse out of there, though, and moves to follow Mercy. "Cookies are delicious. I made some for someone for Valentine's Day." She chuckles.

Mercy Thompson has posed:
    "Oh? Who'd you make them for?" Mercy will set up the paperwork onto the little table near the kitchen and start to sign things over and make sure all is legal and fair so Kara can't get in trouble.
