[52] someone keeps moving my chair

[backdated to the 7th I KNOW THE REGAINS ARE LATE ssssh]

[Dist had spent most of the day in bed. After the party the day before, by the time he'd gotten home he was exhausted and when he woke up he was wretchedly hungover, so he'd called in sick to the library and went back to sleep with a pillow over his head. Eventually the sickness and headache had subsided enough for him to go get something to eat... and notice that he had another couple of gifts. The first one made him choke a little; it was a simple photograph, of him and Jade as children with the Professor. He'd set it up in his room, making a note to find a fitting frame before going outside.

...

AAAAAAAAAAAH CHAIR. Oh, he'd missed it so, and what with his acquired weakness he'd needed it more than ever.

So, Mayfield, you'll have a crazy man in a flying salmon-covered chair pretty much everywhere today, mostly outside because the thing is huge and typically won't fit inside the front door without some rotating. He's looking far more excited than he really should be, really, but hey! Flying chair! And truly flying, it seems, not just hovering; sometimes he's high up, sometimes he's close to the ground; it all depends. On what, probably that's only obvious to Dist.]

It's wonderful. I'll admit, you're one of the first I've explained it to; you're not from my world and can't use or make fon machinery, so there's no danger of you stealing my design.

I'd never do such a thing without permission. [Maybe.] Plus I don't think I could ever build such a thing with what we got on hand for supplies here. It ain't much.

Well, I'd have to kill you if you did!

[He's grinning as he says it, so it's not immediately apparent whether or not he's joking.]

[Quinn laughs anyway, and throws his hands up innocently.] You're secret is safe with me, man, promise!

So, can two people go for a ride on this thing or would it get weighed down too much?

It could handle the weight of two people. But... where would they sit?
