Tatsuo Kihara shared a video. 09/15 near Tisse

Watch on YouTube Got some wheels.

[ooc: 1) pretend it's not almost 20 minutes long. 5 minutes at max. 2) mute the video and listen to this instead. 3) pretend it says things like 'Tisse' and 'Chata' rather than 'Nolita' and 'Central Park']

Hold on, you didn't tell me it was time for us to begin having midlife crisis. I thought we were waiting at least until we were in our forties.

[ His smirk is so strong it's impossible to miss it in his tone. ]

[he hears you smirking Matt, he knows that sound]

Who is having a midlife crisis here?

[Tatsuo. Tatsuo is.]

I just figured it was time I actually had a vehicle.

[and like hell was it going to be a car]

Re: [voice]

[blessmefather]

According to the intern I asked to describe the video during my lunch break it's most definitely a midlife crisis kind of vehicle.

Re: [voice]

[thisloveisjustice]

[Tatsuo almost makes a comment about what do interns know about anything... but he remember his friends in college and all the thankless interning jobs they'd done.]

it's a Kawasaki Ninja 650. Costs less than eight grand. There are motorcycles with bigger engines and more bells and whistles than mine, and they're calling it a mid-life crisis?

[someone's feathers are ruffled]

Re: [voice]

[blessmefather]

A small midlife crisis then?

[ You're not going to get out of this that easy Tatsuo. ]

[blondferret]

What's the color?

[thisloveisjustice]

Orange. I would have liked green, but you know.
They just look grey.

[blondferret]

I approve of the color, though I agree green would have been cooler. It has recently dawned on me that my car is now grey and not blue. Completely sucks to be honest.

[thisloveisjustice]

That is a shame. Maybe the next blue upgrade will be objects.

[totallynotanoni]

[ Oh God she is just imagining all the ways you can crash that thing, Tatsuo. ]

Odd, I never took you for the motorcycle type.
When did you get it?

[thisloveisjustice]

What type did I seem?

Got it on Labor Day. Dealership was having a sale.

[totallynotanoni]

The dragon type.

[ Ok did she actually just make a joke about that? ]

Honestly, though, I always pictured you as driving a police cruiser.
I know you probably don't but its what I tend to associate with people working for law enforcement.

[ She's seen the inside of them enough times to imprint that into her memory. ]

[thisloveisjustice]

Hahaha.

[That really does get a laugh out of Tatsuo. Because it had been pretty cool getting to fly on that dragon.]

Fair enough. Though it would actually be a little hard, because I don't actually know how to drive a car.

[me_matey]

jelly tbh

[thisloveisjustice]

I'll take you for a ride someone if you want.
I have a second helmet.

[me_matey]

now do i seem like the kinda girl who takes rides from dudes on bikes

my old man taught me better than that

-She's mostly giving him a hard time.-

[thisloveisjustice]

no, but i'm not just any dude on a bike

i'd hope your old man would've liked me ;D

[megatechbody]

Mariko Kawaguchi Little late for rebelling without a cause, isn't it?

[thisloveisjustice]

Tatsuo Kihara What about rebelling with a cause?

[megatechbody]

Mariko Kawaguchi Oh? Well, lay it on me.

[thisloveisjustice]

Tatsuo Kihara Oh, nothing that complicated. I just realized after the last couple of months having my own transportation could be useful.

[granted, rolling cop buddy style with Togusa through the middle of a monster invasion had been pretty awesome]

[judgementkazzy]

Nice.

[ A+ would make a great blunt weapon. ]

What's the occasion?

[thisloveisjustice]

Being home I suppose.

[making it back alive]

[judgementkazzy]

Cool. That's as good a reason as any. :-)
It looks like a really nice ride.

[ He can relate. ]

[thisloveisjustice]

She is! I'm really enjoying riding her.

[his motorcycle is a girl, don't ask him to explain that]
