[Heh. If the bros ever accuse Prompto of being careless, he'll point them to this guy. The crowd was working against him, but he skirted to the curb and gained some ground there. And a good view of the bus coming around the corner up ahead. If they really pushed it, they might make it to the stop in time. He picked up the pace so he could shout over a few heads to his racing buddy.]

Keith! Bus! That's it!

[tempredmental]

[Keith heard Prompto's shout and slid to a stop, taking a quick scan of the area. Incoming bus... sign for stop... crowd... and woosh! He ducked through some people and got to the sign before the bus arrived. He put his hands on his knees, breathing a little hard, but he looked energized from it. He'd definitely enjoyed the challenge.]

You're fast... [He said.]

[this_loser]

[Prompto skid to a halt with zero grace and a trip that would have ended in a face plant if he hadn't grabbed the bus stop sign at the last minute and hauled himself upright. He panted through a laugh and watched the bus pull up.]

You too. That was fun. Come on.

[The bus doors hissed open. With luck, they could snag a couple seats and rest up some before reaching their destination.]

[tempredmental]

[Keith chuckled a bit at Prompto needing to use the scenery to stop, but then got on the bus with him. Sure enough, two seats together about halfway back! Keith pointed them out and followed Prompto down the aisle. He'd prefer the aisle seat? but wouldn't fight over who sat where.

The adrenaline rush from the run took longer to wear off than it did for him to catch his breath though, and he was actually pretty animated and excited through the trip to the airport. It was a definite change in his usual serious demeanor.]

[this_loser]

[Prompto didn't care about which seat he got, as long as he was sitting. He whipped out his camera as soon as they were settled and began snapping shots of the city out the window as soon as the bus was in motion.

He was always a little wired, but the closer they got to the airport, the more nervous he felt. Like, shit - he agreed to this. At least Keith seemed energetic, which helped a lot in keeping his anxieties from taking over.

Until they arrived, at least. Then nerves and he hoped the jittery feeling in his legs wasn't as noticeable as it felt.]

Wow. Well, here we are. Awesome. Let's ... let's do this!

[tempredmental]

[Keith watched him taking the pictures, leaning in to see them as they went along. Once in a while, he'd point out one or two that he thought came out cool.

As they got off the bus, he looked around at the place, taking in everything he could about it. He glanced back as Prompto almost seemed to hesitate on his last sentence.]

You okay?

[Having a nervous teammate like Hunk had actually gotten Keith to start noticing when someone might be a little jumpy about something.]

[this_loser]

Uh-huh. Yep!

[Smile, smile, smile. They weren't in the air yet. It was way too soon to panic.]

Hey, I think that's where we need to go.

[He pointed to an area marked off for skydiving and started off for it. As long as he kept moving he would be fine. It was the stopping and thinking about it that tripped him up.]

[tempredmental]

[Keith looked along to where Prompto was pointing to, and then nodded.] Yeah... you're right.

[He headed over there with him. He'd never actually done this just for fun. The only other times he'd done a drop was either in training with the Garrison or that time they used the Green Lion as a drop ship to rescue the Olkari king from the Galra. The second time was pretty awesome, because they'd used the jetpacks on their armor instead of parachutes, and it really changed the feel, but it had still been a really serious moment.

This was just... fun.]

Heh... I've never done it like this before.

[this_loser]

Oh! You're practically a pro!

[And he was still alive, so that was...good?]

First time for me. Unless you count diving onto a giant turtle's head. [Adamantoise, technically.] And, y'know, falling from various things.

[tempredmental]

A giant turtle?

[Keith raised an eyebrow. No... no, that sounded really weird, and Keith mental image of it was... yeah, that wasn't working for him.]

I'm not sure. But have you ever used a parachute?

[this_loser]

Yeah. Like a small turtle. Only bigger.

[Does that help?]

Parachute? Nah. That would be sensible and lessen the risk of death.

[tempredmental]

Well, they have parachutes here, so it'll be safer, at least.

[Though definitely different for him. He actually kind of wished he had his armor with him this time so he could use the jetpack, but this would be fine.]

And I doubt we'll be landing on the head of a giant turtle, either.

[Though, really... who knew, right?

Keith gave Prompto a quick smirky grin over his shoulder, and started heading for the group so they could sign up.]
