"Captive, yeah..." Spade sputtered, gazing down at the Cotswolds drifting along below them. His host was moving around now, something made a pinging noise, it all seemed so much further away than the sight in front of him. The offer to go over the schematics was taken away in the foggy distance created by the hypnotizing scene.

A near imperceptible tapping sound arrived, something larger that threw a strange shadow into the very corner of Spade's sight- another clockwork. This one considerably larger with four spindly legs that looked all but impossible as a means of locomotion, though the form was very clearly imitating that of a small deer. The young man found himself gawking at it and only with great effort was he finally able to close his mouth with a soft pop.

I've never really been this far out of the city before..." he hesitated a moment before conceding that sitting in silence would actually be even more awkward not. "Are you?"
