[ he nyooms. he nyooms fast, very much a sprinter as he goes to grab that helmet and come back. he'll climb on the back then carefully, putting the helmet on. ]
[ the sheer number of girls that fei du has bagged using the exact move is unreasonably high
that is not the case here. for now, he waits for eiden patiently, putting the bike in park while he waits. once he makes space for eiden, he settles back, easily, lifting his arms up and out of the way so he has space to hold on. ]
Hold on tight. Do you need me to start slow? [ a little playfully teasing, there. ]
[ it's a good move, eiden recognizes it as one he's turned down multiple times because he could see an accident happeningβtoo drunk, he's a flailer, he'd go flying off the bike at mach fuck and die. this is different. this feels safe. he adjusts to hold on without missing a beatβ ]
You don't have to be gentle~ [ teasing... 2, he squeezes once. ] Hit it.
[ there'd be an S&M joke here if it wasn't unreasonably inappropriate considering. you know.
but. he revs the engine a second after that low, easy statement, bends forward to get his hand around the throttle properly - and then absolutely takes off with a cacophonous boom of the engine. the track lights up under the bike as it kicks into high gear and fei du sends them tearing off down the race course with all the drag race expertise you'd expect of someone who has "racing very fast cars" as his skills.
the minute they tear off, eiden laughs-slash-yelps. it's a holler of pure glee driven by adrenaline because they're really just gone. he's grateful for the helmet because damn it'd be impossible to breathe going this fast otherwise, or at least he'd pass out trying. he just holds on a little tighter to both the bike and fei du.
[ perfect. the glee is good - honestly, after this downright awful weekend, glee is probably exactly what eiden needs. fei du leans into it, lowering a bit to the bike to make them even!more aerodynamic as he whips around a curve, the bike dropping low to the ground.
he lets out a laugh, too, and calls out - ] Left or right! [ pick a turn as they reach a crossroad! ]
[ eiden shouts it instantly, hugging him fast as they get a little lower to the ground, rounding the curve. laughingβhe feels light and doesn't have time to feel bad about it. ]
[ LEFT IT IS he sharply jerks the bike, letting it drift around the corner - enough to dance up sparks like this is mario kart, and then brings it back to straight, cruising. there are a couple of jumps coming up on the track, and he weaves in and out of a couple other bikes like a needle going through thread. ]
[ he whoops again and just presses close because this is like absolutely amazing. he doesn't look away though, eager to see what's up again and grinning like an idiot. ]</smalL.
This is awesome! Show me what you've got!
he laughs at that, and for once, the noise isn't so contained - it's a little wild, like he's breaking out of the edges of his own perfectly assembled box, leaking life past the thousand masks he wears.
with that, he brings the bike past another biker and kicks it back into high gear. the tires squeal with the force of it, and he leans forward, gunning the throttle. the bike picks up speed, up up up up up the ramp and with picture perfect precision, shoots off the top of the ramp. for a long moment, they're airborne, fei du holding onto the handlebars without flinching, letting the joy of it all suck his breath away.
and then, when they land, he brings the bike around in a sharp curve to pull it to a stop so eiden can get a look at the wild bs they just did. ]
[ this can't hurt me if i just reply and don't look at the parent response.
oh help they are probably the worst, just laughing at this huge jump and living their best lives for 5 seconds. eiden definitely, while he has some issues with heights, feels safe here. (it's the same with wenzhou, atop the tower and looking down. suddenly it doesn't feel so scary.)
as the bike thunks down on its shocks, eiden leans into the turn comfortably, arms still wrapped around fei du. he gazes at the jump, eyes wide and starry as he squeezes brieflyβ ]
That... was amazing!
[ if he had a tail it would be wagging. instead all he can do is lift up the visor and take a deep happily. ]
God... I feel like I left the rest of my organs way back there, but like. In a good way?
[ fei du does the same - he reaches up to lift his helmet free and shake out his hair, pleased to just take in the view. he doesn't stop eiden from holding onto him (once again, this move has bagged him way too many girls) but his joy at the jump itself is genuine, too. it's a real smile - a rarity, on fei du's face. ]
Good way to put it. [ hehe. his heart's still pounding from the adrenaline - it's brilliant, like it always is. it's the chance to feel alive, something fei du relishes in. ]
Glad I'm not rusty. [ he tilts his head back a little to glance at eiden, smile still playing on his face. ] I'm glad you enjoyed.
