Tony had been resting, having retrieved some sunglasses, and placed them over his eyes. He'd watched the fight a bit, but had kept his eyes closed during some of it, mostly drifting in and out of his thoughts. As he heard Anne address him, he looked over to her, swiveling his head to do so. "Oh uh... discreet? Not really sure about that.. most of the cars I own are all vintage... I have my electric... which I guess looks just like everyone else's... it's a nicer model, but still pretty run of the mill." he explained. "You can take it if you need to. It drives itself, so you really just have to sit back and let it take you to whatever destination you program it with... that is... if you think it's a good idea." he added, noting Emilena's words.

He was the second president during my lifetime (I was born in the Reagan era), and I do still remember parts of his presidency. He was definitely a president I respected, and was pragmatic, as has been stated. An American aviator as well in WWII, his TBM Avenger was shot down after successfully bombing a Japanese radio tower on Chichijima. Hit by anti-aircraft fire, his Avenger was downed with its engine aflame, though he managed to bail out, and floated for four hours in a raft before being rescued by the submarine USS Finback. He flew 58 combat mission, and was a real hero. I too may not have agreed with all of his policies, but definitely a president I respected. May he rest in peace.

Nodding, Tony smiled slightly. "Heh... same here... my library is mostly non-fiction as it's a lot of books on history. Used to be big into the Second World War myself... still kind of am, but then I took a greater interest in the conflicts around the late 19th and early 20th centuries... technology was really exploding at the time, so yeah... Sino-Japanese, Spanish-American, and Russo-Japanese are some of my favorites... but I really do like history in general." He pulled himself up out of the pool now, his fur matted and water dripping off him as he moved to a deck chair.

Settling back in it, he placed his paws behind his head, and gazed up at the sky. As Emilena asked a question of Awe, Tony's ears pricked up a bit and listened, as he was curious about the answer.

As Emilena and Awe joined him, the ferret blinked, not quite expecting Emilena to have nothing to wear save for her undergarments, and as she dove in, he found himself slightly admiring her form a bit more than he wanted to before she dove in. But as she broke the surface, he smirked. "Heh... yeah well... that comes from having a shitload of money and not knowing what to fully do with it. I think some actors have similar setups or... something." he rolled his eyes. "But thank you." he smiled, nodding to them both. "I'm glad you approve." He then pushed off from the wall and began doing some laps as well, doing the front crawl as he began heading back and forth, kicking off one end and moving to the other fluidly, being well versed in the different forms of swimming.

Tony: Nope, no augments I lack and none I desire. I prefer being natural, and I've managed just fine up to this point.

Tony: Uh... damn... if I had to choose? Well... Lily's out. She' too psycho/full of herself to make a good match... and unpredictable plus sociopathic. Not tendencies I'd look for in a mate. Marie and Rose I don't really know enough about, despite having adventured with them before. Marita is OK, but I'm not really sure she's my type. It's nice she appreciates my cars but really... techy stuff is usually way over my head, unless you're talking about a gas burning car engine. Uh... Flora... is too young. Too rambunctious. Anne well... I used to be into but... she seems kind of uh... I dunno distant now? I haven't spoken with her seriously in quite some time so... maybe worth pursuing again but... I just honestly don't have relevant information on her at present. I almost forgot she existed in fact when I was running through this list in my head.

And that leaves if I'm thinking correctly, Emilena. Recently, she's shown a different side to herself... cooperative, softer, nowhere near as harsh as she used to be. Sure, she's still all business when it comes down to it, but there's other things I wasn't aware of before. She can actually loosen up sometimes, and isn't stiff constantly anymore. Am I saying we're 100% compatible? No, but if I had to choose one... I think Emilena would do. Definitely the best pick of the bunch.

Awe, who do you feel you get along most with in the group so far?

Emilena, was the burning down the orphanage ordeal the most difficult thing you've faced as a cop... or was there something else?

Tony pushed himself up off the couch, and headed for a changing room to slip out of his clothes and into his swimming trunks. Having accomplished this whilst Emilena was talking to Axel, he emerged out onto the back balcony, gazing out over the city, the sun framing everything as his house faced west out the back. Padding over to the pool's edge, he smiled, gazing down at the fluid surface, before placing his paws above his head and launching himself off to dive in. As the water encased his body, surrounding all aspects of him, he paddled briefly under the surface, then swam for the top, breaking the water and inhaling as he looked about him, filling his lungs with a hearty and audible gulp.

Running his paw over the top of his head fur to smooth it back, the ferret smiled, then kicked his body sideways to start enacting the sidestroke.

"He was... one of the most prolific of all time for English speaking authors." Tony commented, smiling as Emilena jolted awake, the ferret smirking over to her. "Heh... welcome back." He greeted her. "And yes... so... basically... you go through this room." he pointed to his left. "Which is like... part of the library, and then make a right into the kitchen, and straight ahead if you keep going is the sliding glass doors to the back balcony... pool is out there. Just don't fall over the edge. I have a railing but the balcony itself is extended out over the cliff on stilts." he informed the vulpine. "I may join you now that I think about it." he commented, stroking his chin.

Awesome! Almost no one knows his name, so I'm glad you do! I'm thinking of joining the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Club come the new year, in fact.  :)littlefoot I'm already a member of the Pierce-Arrow Society.  :smile

So whoever posts first can go next!

"Well he does, but he also loses his life." Tony pointed out. "Not many survive that play but... then again... I suppose in his position... I'd do whatever it'd take to get back at my uncle too." He nodded thoughtfully. "Hamlet's probably my favorite as well. Did like the Taming of the Shrew, and Coriolanus." He commented. "Hamlet is rather hard to beat though... it's... one of the best things in English ever written, in all honesty." he confessed, nodding.
