[He grins at the kiss, he can't help it. Definitely better to tackle bullshit like this with a smile and a laugh, he's all for that, even if it's deeply annoying that they're being put through it.]

Fuck it, let's try! What's the worst that could happen?

[Probably all kinds of things but whatever. They're going down, it'll be fast even if it doesn't support their weight well for long.

But just to test it, first, just to make sure he's not about to get them wrecked and stranded out here, he takes a stride out onto the makeshift ramp and feels it flex under his feet. Stays put, though. Only bends a little.]


Seems okay! Least we're not gonna be goin' real steep. C'mon, let's go!

[He grabs a dislodged chunk of pavement to push up against the lip of the ramp, so the bike doesn't just push the metal down the little cliff instead of riding onto it. Up onto the bike he goes, then, with the wheel aligned and ready. And once she's on, he grins and lets that engine fire up nice and loud before riding forward. All speed, zero caution - slow and cautious now just feels like asking for trouble.

The ramp warps under their weight and tips sideways, and he yells in surprise as he fights to redirect the bike and keep them upright. At this speed, they're off the ramp in a second though, only to hit a few jarring cracks in the pavement that rattle his bones. He hits the brakes just as hard as he'd hit the throttle, and puts a foot down to keep them from tipping as they come to an abrupt stop.]


Ow. Fuckin' bit my tongue! But hey, we're down!

[Goddamn.]
