[takes out a bottle and pops pills]

Flying's fine.

[rollplayinghouse]

You don't have to force yourself to do that if you don't want to, either.

[liarliarliar]

It's part of my Better B Project!

[rollplayinghouse]

Mm... Well, it's good to push yourself and try things, but you have to be careful with that kind of thing, too. I've learned that one from experience. So... let me know if you don't like anything and we can stop.

[liarliarliar]

Mmm! Of course. I don't want to be unhealthy, that'd do no one any good.

[rollplayinghouse]

[huffs]

That's not what I mean.

[liarliarliar]

It's not? Pushing yourself too much ends up being unhealthy and counterproductive is what I thought you meant. Apologies for misunderstanding.

[rollplayinghouse]

Well, that's also true, but no. What I meant was that... it's good to stretch yourself, and sometimes things just need practice, and it's hard to tell where the line is sometimes, but... you are also allowed to just not like things. Even if they're things other people enjoy.

[liarliarliar]

Can't grow past dislike without giving things a shot though.

[rollplayinghouse]

Mm. That's why I said sometimes it's hard to tell where the line is.

[liarliarliar]

No lines for now though!

[rollplayinghouse]

There should be some lines eventually. That was my point.

[liarliarliar]

Gotcha.

[rollplayinghouse]

[she gives him a look like she's still not sure he's taking that to heart. but there's no point pushing it further, and anyway they have reached where her motorcycle is parked]

Well, here we go. Climb on.

[She gets on the bike first.]

[liarliarliar]

[climbs into the back and hangs onto her without much shame about needing to]

It's very pretty.

[rollplayinghouse]

Thanks. It's also pretty fast and aerodynamic.

[She starts the engine and starts down the road, quickly getting up to speed.]

[liarliarliar]

[good thing he took pills for his motion sickness]

[rollplayinghouse]

[Once the bike is going fast, the engine loud and the tires rumbling on the asphalt, it abruptly becomes quieter as the whole thing lifts off the ground. She tries not to ascend too quickly, but there's only so slowly they can go when they need to clear the buildings, so it's a sudden jump upward before a slower rise to a cruising altitude, letting momentum carry them forward through the air.]

[liarliarliar]

[this is fine]

[rollplayinghouse]

[They just cruise like that for a while. It's actually fairly calm except for the part where they're on a motorcycle hurtling through the air hundreds of feet off the ground.]

[liarliarliar]

[thats nightmare fuel but also exactly the kind of situation B was looking to get into

perfection]

[rollplayinghouse]

[Fortunately the gym isn't far]

...We're almost there. I'm going to take us down and go on the road the rest of the way.

[and in fact they drop down until the wheels hit the road again and she can make a few turns.]

[liarliarliar]

[wheezes gently oh cool]

[rollplayinghouse]

[Another minute or so and they pull up outside the gym and she parks.]

[liarliarliar]

I'm in the mood to fall on mats now for sure!
