The door opens onto an alleyway between two buildings- one residential, one not. "Here we are," Ray says, stepping out and holding the Firehouse door open behind him. "Home sweet- uh, hang on a minute, I need to check the year."

He trots off to the newspaper box on the curb, then gives Kitt a thumbs-up.

As he did, Kitt slowed. He was privately amused.

In front of Ray, the mode dropped from "Pursuit" to "Normal."

"...That likely turned a few heads," Kitt said mildly.

Kitt eased the brake on, mode changing to "Auto." "You didn't harm anything, except that post," Kitt said. "And I doubt the damage to that will have to be repaid."

"Thank you," preened the supercar. They always did so well when complimented.

((No problem. *L* See you around.))

"As I said before, as many times as you need to. But before we do, is there anything specific you'd like to learn?" He, after all, knew all of the tricks that Detroit hadn't even dreamed of yet.

"Those are simple enough," Kitt said, putting those in mind to attend to. "But it's more than one day's work. A day of driving is exhausting to anyone, even when it's not plain highway driving. I won't try to say it isn't. Especially with the trials this sort of thing can have on your musculature. I don't want your arms to be sore tomorrow.

"But I can also teach you primary and advanced evasion, which might come in handy."

"Bracing for recoil isn't exactly the same as precise driving manoeuvers," Kitt pointed out. "But I do believe we should set some sort of time limit for today. We can always pick up another time."

All the same, Kitt began mentally structuring the rest of the lesson.

"Then you should go for some lunch," said Kitt, "while I plot the rest of the lesson. I would like to meet Doctor Spengler, but that can be put off for after this trip."

Kitt assured him, "I'll be quite fine. There's something I'd rather like to try besides. Bureaucratic computers and I don't exactly get along, but I'd like to see if I can still access the police databases."

Which would be quite a fun trial.

"All I am is nosy," Kitt admitted. "I want to see if, somewhere, there's a version of me here."

Or if he existed in fiction.

"The police databases would be the fastest way to find out if I'd been reported in any place around the country. Except here in the last few hours, of course."

Kitt's tone seemed to smirk though he had no face to manage it with.

((Well, the call, right now, is yours. And so is how we cover the rest of the day. Do you want to go through detailed lessons or what?))

But Kitt was higher technology than that. If there was a small connection to the internet, he could get into it by sweet talking the right servers. With a little silver binary and some smooth hexadecimal, as well as a few whispered promises of 256-bit encryption, and he found just a few tiny hints--

But that forum was the most interesting. Firebird family.

There was a kind of sweet satisfaction in Kitt's thoughts at seeing that part. A satisfaction that could've left him purring.

He'd tell that to Michael later.

If he could get over the want to go find himself, even if he knew it would risk paradox.

While Ray was eating, Kitt gathered all the information he could, even scouring for possible images, because he was masochistically curious that way.

The image, Kitt took and stored into his databanks. He'd run it through his image refinement software later. Oh, satisfaction could've been seen dripping off of him if he were human. As it was, he just wanted to crow.

So with that information tight in his grips, he waited for Ray to come back outside.

Concept car, Kitt thought, amused. Concept car! Oh, how much the world could change in twenty years!

"Quite," Kitt said, voice more than satisfied as the door opened for Ray's grip. Could cars purr? Kitt was making an effort at it. "It seems I, or someone like me, exist here. Or there is a possibility through second-hand tales. I don't dare test it just yet, but I do know the exclusive Knight Industries frequencies."

It could be done. But he wanted a few rumours of his own first.
