23 Joke - There's a Gag Here Somewhere, I Swear.

[xochipilli_cursed]

[[Aaron is in a good mood and has finished one of his projects.

It's a go kart! The metal frame looks a bit stockier than you'd except with most go karts but the engine built by Dist can handle it. It even has a passenger seat.

Anyone who would think to can notice there is a secondary exhaust which seems to not be used at the moment. It's probably nothing though, right?

Aaron decides to take his new toy out on the town!]]


A) [Action | Anywhere there is a road]

[[Aaron is zipping down the roads, not caring which street he ends up on. If he recognizes you, or if you wave, he might even pull over.

He can be found anywhere in town.]]


B) [Action | 1451 Mitchell Road]

[[He's going to pull into the driveway at Mitchell.

Turning it off and knocking on the door. Hoping miss_enma_ai is home.]]


C) [Action | 1251 Williams Road]

[[inababanchou has been doing a lot for Aaron, so guess who is going to get a chance to test drive the go kart as well?

After Aaron has had his fun,he's going to be trying to get Souji out to have a try.]]


D) [Action | Your home]

[[Are you a friend of his? Has he had a friendly conversation with you at least once? Maybe you were his date to the Prom?

Well, he's swinging by to check on you as well. Also, he wants to show off his toy. He's proud he put it together.]]

"Not at all. That's why I learned to hail a cab. I'm not old enough to get a driver's permit for a car anyways."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Depends on the state. Even if you don't drive a car yet, want to try that out.

[[Pointing over to the go kart.]]

It's a lot easier and you don't need a licence.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"If you're willing to show me how I wouldn't mind."

[She nods a little]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Sure, get in the driver seat and we'll get started.

[[He doesn't mind at all.]]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"All right."

[She sits down, ponders a bit, then starts adjusting the seat and mirrors so she can see/drive, ya know, BLASPHEMY!]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Luckily there isn't all that much to adjust with a go kart. Maybe the seat position a little so she can reach the pedals right.

She'll just barely get them as is.

Aaron starts the engine before getting into the passenger seat.]]

Right is go, left is stop. This thing doesn't have a reverse so try not to dead end it.

Other than that it's pretty easy.

[[Ties on his seat belt first.]]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[She looks over the controls and ponders them for a minute]

"Its not computerized correct? I guess I'll just have to wing it."

[She ties on her seat belt then slowly begins looping out of the driveway]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

No computers, just basic controls. The wheel steers and the pedals do their thing.

[[He'll smile reassuringly as she gets it out of the driveway.]]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[She'll take it out of the driveway like grandma, move a block or so slower than heck then ponder a bit more]

"Hrm..."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Feel free to press the gas more. This thing is pretty quick.

[[He's relaxing in his seat. He doesn't mind the slow ride when he's not driving.]]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[She nods a bit and looks down the street]

"All right. I think I have a base understanding of the physics of this thing."

[Just after, Ruri mashes the go pedal and is bat out of helling it down the street, avoiding traffic as she does so and not flipping the car]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[It's hard to flip the go kart with two people but Aaron wills till grip the frame anyways.]]

Holy crap, woo!

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[its also best to slow down when turning streets, shame she's not doing that, that wastes fuel]

"I should have worn goggles."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[He should have worn a helmet.]]

Be sure to watch the tires, they're a little out from the frame.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Right. I've taken that into consideration. Hrm... Are they sturdy tires though?"

[She keeps bat out of helling it down the street, zipping around a car and ignoring the honking]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Pretty sturdy, so's the frame.

[[More so than it had to be, luckily.]]

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Can I try something I saw in an anime once?"

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[What does he know.]]

Sure?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Hold onto something."

[She slams on the breaks and banks hard right, the car making a full 180 before coming to a stop by the curb]

"Hrm... Seems the math is constant."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Note to self. Make sure everything is working okay when this is done.]]

Holy crap. You picked that up quick.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I've played a lot of driving simulations with Omoikane. The physics were relatively constant, I just had to not think it was me in the actual car."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Oh... uh... you might want to take into account what happens if you have an accident. If you do, it's very much you.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"There is that, but there's the fact this place won't let us go either...."

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

[[Not quite getting what she's saying, so he'll run with what he thinks it is.]]

Yeah, I figure find something you enjoy to help pass the time while trying to find a way out of this place.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"That's not quite what I meant but yes. I'm working on that."
