And sure enough roughly five minutes later a sports bike with a helmeted rider came down the road from town at speed. Slowing down the bker walks the bike over while still mounted. The individual was clad in what appeared to be plain clothes or more accurately a body suit with a rigid canvas jacket over top. Closer inspection, assuming there was one, would see suspiciously armor pad shaped bulges on the rider's hips and knees. Reaching up the rider flipped up the helmet's face visor revealing...
Suh-Hyun waved, "Hello Yasuki-san," She raised a brow after looking over the leather outfit, "Missed an opportunity. You could have stuck that lizard's skull on the front of the bike and you'd look like an extra in one of those Spider dystopia movies."
"...I'm gonna be mad I didn't do that for the rest of the day, that's maybe the second or third coolest thing idea someone has had in a while."
Ochiba gazes back a little forlornly at where a giant lizard skull should be mounted.
"Well, something for next excursion. Anyway, I haven't done much exploring down this way and thought you'd be a good travel partner. Saw how you handled the lizard, all good stuff there, and you had mentioned you like a bit of speed."
Ochiba points down the long curving coastal road ahead.
"Apparently there's a little cafe down the ways with a view of the ocean, steamed buns and homemade non-alcoholic cocktails. Came across it when I was doing some research for a hot day. Figure we could make our way to it, see where the roads takes us?"
She tosses across a pair of earbuds connected by cord.
"If you want, got us a short range radio so we can chat on the way, unless you're that kind of 'only me and the road' unicorn?"
