Beep! Beep! Beeeep!

Lilly shot up in bed to cease the alarm only to find that there was no alarm and it's a Saturday. She woke up at 5:20 on a weekend to a blaring alarm that doesn't exist. Lovely. She was still in a bit of a daze and it took a bit to figure out what was going on until the Radio Man did it for her.

"Welcome to a fine Saturday, beauties. I have some delectful tunes this morning and I'm happy to share, I hope you enjoy some Gorillaz, folks, 'cuz that's what we'll be playing for the next ten hours. That's right, bananas in the A.M, and P.M, I guess. Hope you lovely people enjoy."

Great, more Gorillaz, is what Lilly thought as the voice of the weekend DJ hummed through her radio. She checked her phone to confirm the obscene time on the clock and yes, it was in fact 5:20. In the morning. On a Saturday. Lilly was so awake by now she knew that she wouldn't be able to go back to sleep. Gorillaz's Some kind of Nature started playing. She always liked the songs that were like this, all laid back and chill. She did some research once and found out most of her "favourites" were from the album called "Plastic Beach" which was kinda neat, it's not like she goes out of her way to find the band's music anymore, she just attracts it like some kind of oddly-specific magnet.

Lilly sat up in bed and decided she would text Elizabeth. It was weird, Liz was always up at the most bizarre hours. Sure, Lilly was an insomniac but Liz took it to a whole new level. It informed Lilly that at any given time, Liz would always be up for a chat. So that's what Lilly did, ask if she was up for a chat. The answer is almost immediate, like it always is.

"U up?"

"Yeah, whatcha need?"

"Just woke up, thought id have a bit of a chat"

"Just woke up myself. I had a few ideas on what we can do tonight instead of going to the party, btw."

"I told u already im going whether or not u r coming with"

"It was worth a shot. Just promise you'll stay close the entire time, it's both our first parties and I want us to be safe."

"Ofc yea i know. Auntie will kill me if i dont"

"Good. I don't know what I'd do if something happened to you on my watch."

"Thts so cheesy lol btw i found some good fanfic on tumblr wanna read"

"Sure, why not."

...

The shadows were long and sun half on the horizon as Elizabeth checked over herself that she had everything she needs, only to have the huge realization that she had no mode of transportation.

"I can't take the Pinto, and I certainly can't fly. What will I do, doggy?"

"Bark."

"Wow, they did look cool when I saw them riding around. Good idea, thanks."

"Ruff."

"It'll take a lot of mental energy, and the higher-ups might get suspicious. But, Michael said whatever I did for Lilly was valid soooooo..."

"Ruff."

"Sorry, Archangel Michael. She was joking that time, but I don't want to find out what happens if I test her... Anyways, I think I have the perfect model in mind, those Harley Davidsons looked cool!"

"Bark!"

"Right, discreet. Don't worry, I have another idea."

With that, Elizabeth started to miracle. It's a tricky business, miracleing, you can't just pop things into existence immediately, you have to take time. Take time to think, to formulate exactly what you want and all the little details of that thing. Sure, sometimes the tiny things are auto filled for you, but to get the most accurate object the more detail you think about the better.
