Cam is out flying. There's a decent cloud of atmosphere around the gold plane, now, millenia of demons making air around themselves for comfort and not sealing it up because why would you bother. There's a small forest, here - the effect is kind of ruined by the lamps it has to grow under, but it's still pretty.
He feels an open summons and lets it grab him -

"...I s'pose we can get to the roof of this building... not that I've tried," he says.

"Well, I can get to the roof of your building, but not carrying you and not without getting stared at, I imagine."

And on the roof Cam makes a cute little spacecraft in about half a minute and hops into the pilot's seat.

It's very cute. Ripper is charmed. He climbs into what looks like a passenger seat.

"Yep! This one is actually like thirty years out of date, but I know how to fly it and it's good enough for the purpose."

The ship is very fast. Presently they are flying over the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. Cam whistles.

Cam starts angling south, scanning the ground below.
He slows down when they approach Phoenix.
He lands in the desert a ways away from the city but within reasonable walking distance of the highway, and makes a large rock between the road and his ship to conceal it from casual view, and hops out.

"Do you want a tiny air conditioner?" asks Cam, only slightly patronizingly.
from_scratch
Cam makes him a little object that fans cool air where it is pointed. "There you are. Battery should last a few days."
And he starts walking towards the highway, leather-coatedly unobtrusive.

Ripper and his tiny air conditioner follow. It seems likely to be more interesting than staying by the ship.
