"I do not understand how this machine can speak," Thor mumbles to himself, the loud echo of it within the small confines of the car hurting Steve's ears, and he winces just as Darcy reaches around the god to take the large road map from his hand. Jane points to the small GPS attached to the dashboard, giving Darcy a sideways glance in the rearview mirror.
"We don't need the map, Darcy. I told you, this GPS works just fine," she reminds the woman chidingly, her brown eyes shining with frustration as she hurriedly turns the steering wheel to pass a torturously slow driver, and she honks for extra effect, annoyed.
"Yeah, well I don't trust it," Darcy huffs, and she commences trying to mark a path with her fuzzy pen, putting the map against her leg to write on it as Steve scoots further against the door on his side to avoid getting any paper cuts, compliments of one distracted Darcy Lewis.
Jane swerves suddenly, screaming along with Darcy as a deer cuts through the road, and the unexpected movement causes Steve's head to hit the door panel, as he was previously leaning against it to try and get some sleep, and he murmurs curses to himself as Thor eyes the blaring GPS warily, not at all uneasy with the change in the atmosphere.
Jane corrects the car and lets out a shaky sigh, just as Darcy retracts her fingers from Steve's forearms, and he complains at the fingernail sized dents in his skin before giving her a look, but she ignores him, quickly going back to her mission of finding a route in lieu of the GPS that she is positive will malfunction soon.
