Oh good, you're already familiar.

[ They seem pleased about it as they also buckle in.

And then take off at max speed. ]

[stunwhistle]

[ZOOM

will laughs, absolutely delighted. they're going so fast!!!]

[becomemod]

[ Snake is excellent at handling the car, and makes the turns easily, even when they're going so fast nobody would ever do this on a public road. ]

[stunwhistle]

[he is having the time of his life]

Dude, this is so cool.

[becomemod]

[ They laugh, enjoying themselves. ]

Right? It's my favorite place.

[stunwhistle]

You're driving it super smoothly for how fast we're going, too. I'm impressed.

[driving this fast on a freeway? terrifying.

on a racetrack with someone who clearly knows what they're doing? that's fine.]

[becomemod]

I've had plenty of practice.

[ It's a skill just like anything else. ]

Have you driven before?

[stunwhistle]

Nah, I don't have my license yet.

[becomemod]

Hmm... I suppose I shouldn't let you have the wheel then.

[stunwhistle]

[he winks]

Or, you let me have it and supervise, and we call it driver's ed.

[becomemod]

I'll think about it. You definitely shouldn't start out going this fast.

[ Because 120 MPH is terrifying unless you know what you're doing. ]

[stunwhistle]

Oh, yeah, no way. I'd scare myself schistless.

[a beat.]

What? I said schist. [another beat.] Schist!

[...]

Ooookay, I guess I'm being censored.

[becomemod]

...? That's odd.

[ They'll do one more loop before slowing down and to a stop. ]

[stunwhistle]

I guess that explains the clowns on those messages I saw earlier...

[weird! anyway, he settles a bit as they finish their loop.]

Thanks for driving me. This was pretty cool.

[becomemod]

I did see those on the chat. From Jolyne, was it?

You're welcome. I enjoy a good joyride whenever I can get one.

[stunwhistle]

Yeah, that's the one.

[he smiles]

How long have you been driving for, anyway?

[becomemod]

[ Thoughtful. ]

I'm coming up on a decade now.

[stunwhistle]

So you're... what, 26? Or did you start driving later?

[becomemod]

Later. It's not a necessity where I'm from.

[stunwhistle]

[he chuckles]

Makes sense. When I was younger, my mom took me to New York City. She parked the car, we got out, and she said we were not going to drive a single time on our visit. And we really didn't need to - the subway got us everywhere we needed to go.

[becomemod]

[ That gets a soft laugh out of them. ]

You really have no reason to drive in a big city like that. It's a pain when the streets are always that crowded.

[stunwhistle]

Yeah, driving in NYC seems like a surefire way to develop anger issues if you didn't already have them.

[becomemod]

Better to use the public transportation in those cases. I hear it's robust.

[stunwhistle]

It is! Too bad the same can't be said for the rest of the States.

[becomemod]

Why just there?
