[If it were possible for a motorcycle to narrow its eyes, the bike is sizing up Serph. It starts to make a motion towards him, then immediately chickens out and zips behind Edward, much like a chastised little dog. Edward reaches behind himself and puts a hand on its handlebars.]
That's right, I have every intention of riding you again. I just can't right now. And I would feel better if you stayed with the tank instead of going off on your own.
[The motorcycle honks its horn, once, and then mournfully wheels over to the tank.]
Fortunately that seems to have solved Edward's motorcycle woes, though Serph certainly feels a strange twinge watching what should be an inaninate object, incapable of moving save under the direction of its rider and/or physics, act with some level of expression.
[Isn't it so weird? That a thing that didn't begin with sentience now has it? Serph's expression pinches as he can't decide what his feelings on the matter are, besides hoping that his vehicle doesn't suddenly get an attitude.]

Well, then.
[Did they just good cop-bad cop a motorcycle?]

He nods towards Edward.]
Come find me if it gives you trouble again.

Thank you.
[Edward shakes his head and laughs quietly.]
I have to admit, it's been a new experience, having the vehicles gain sentience. Hopefully my bike will get along with Andrew's car.

If it doesn't...
[He could threaten it again?]

[Unaware of Serph's inner turmoil, Edward pats his arm.]
I'll call you if it needs another stern talking to.

Serph nods in acknowledgement. And with matters handled he turns to leave, plush 'biblical angel' cradled in the crook of his arm.]

Goodbye, Serph. Thank you for your help.
[From the Tank, the motorcycle honks moodily as Serph moves past it, but it stays where it is, huddled in the Tank's shadow.]
