[ Oh he's ready in some ways, but the combination of the rumbling of the motorcycle underneath him and Zack in front of him is more tantalizing that he had imagined. G'raha lets out an excited "whoop" as the bike goes off, clinging tighter, before laughing heartily into the other man's shoulder.
This is fun in and of itself. Even if they aren't going particularly fast, G'raha can feel his heart beat as if they were going one-hundred malms an hour. ]
I can see how this would be come quite addicting after long.
[Zack laughs, his laugh rumbling through his chest.]
Yeah, once you get a taste for riding a bike, it's hard to go back.
[He's very happy that G'raha finds it thrilling, and just for that he'll pick up their speed. Zipping down the road quick and fast, the wind in their hair, the sun on their skin!!]
But I'm sure you've ridden something way more exhilarating than a motorcycle. You seem like the type that actually likes dangerous joyrides, under it all. Am I right?
[He's taking them to a local burger and taco fusion joint where they can grab a bite to eat. Because why not both??]
[ Oh G'rah can feel that laugh and it's lovely. He can get used to this.
The increase in speed is appreciated. Despite his proclivity for being stuck in a library so often, G'raha enjoys a good adventure. His ears flatten against his head in response to the wind, but he is all smiles as he holds on tight to Zack. (All the more reason to now...for safety, obviously.) ]
Ah...mayhaps a bit.
[ He admits, allowing himself a moment to close his eyes and just feel. ]
I have handled a few precarious mounts before--one being a particularly ornery chocobo--but the company is certainly what elevates the experience.
[Yep, just keep holding on to him for purely safety reasons. Although, Zack can't help smirking a little when G'raha holds on tight. He doesn't mind those arms around him.
The wind is perfect. The breeze puts air in his lungs and Zack also enjoys how it makes him feel. Easy, lighthearted. Good.]
I've had my fair share of rides on unruly chocobos before, too. I remember the one time a fussy bird didn't like how I was sitting and bucked me right off into the mud. [He snorts another short laugh.] I prefer the Gongaga type of chocobo breeds, now. More flighty, but nicer tempers.
Nothing beats a nice motorcycle ride, though. Especially with a good riding partner.
[ Good, definitely good. G'raha's own heart is racing a bit and only part of it is due to the novelty of getting to ride on the motorcycle itself.
The image of Zack, despite his clear prowess with handling a mount like this, getting thrown off the back of a feisty chocobo is hard not to grin at. G'raha chuckles, his own grip tightening a bit just for a moment as he laughs. ]
I haven't yet had the chance of riding a Gongaga chocobo myself, though I imagine your bike argues far less?
[ Don't mind as he rests his cheek on the back of Zack's shoulder. Definitely...not for safety reasons. ]
...Well, I am glad to have proven myself agreeable so quickly.
[He likes the sound of G'raha's soft and amused laugh. Makes him feel good and makes him grin warmly in return. He wouldn't mind hearing more of that.]
A lot less. But if you get a chance to see those chocobos for yourself, I'd suggest you give it a try. Careful, though. They do like to jump pretty high.
[He might just offer to take G'raha that way someday. If things go well. Speaking of, they're taking the scene route towards the place to eat. A nice scenic way full of fresh summer trees and easy breeze.
He might be stalling a little. Just because he likes how G'raha leans on him.]
