[ He's asking now so he won't be surprised if she cries later.
Akashi's going to end up clinging to her at the end of the ride, though. It's gonna happen...
And good on them, because there's no line, too! Akashi pays for two tickets immediately and they're given bracelets to put on that serves as their all-day passes. ]
[ They're given a map of the place upon entering. There aren't that many people around, surprisingly!! There are people but the lines aren't that long. It's not bad. ]
[ Emerald's going to find out eventually that Akashi feels out of place in a place like this. He's gone to one, sure, but it's not a place he goes to often. He's not sure if he enjoys amusement parks, but he intends to make the most out of today.
He takes her hand as they line up. They're going to be let in once the ride finishes. ]
[ They can feel awkward together. Emerald's almost certainly going to get jumpy from being unarmed at some point more than because it's a theme park. Neither of them really belongs here, but emerald would like to feel like she does for a day.
At the very least, she belongs beside Akashi, even if she's teasing his tiny horse. 🐎
[ Akashi is going to buy magic to make things big from a mysterious merchant who disappears most of the month in a world that gets freaky with donuts.
The attendant comes around to strap Emerald in with the belt because she hadn't even tried to herself because seriously this thing goes so slow......... ]
Just.. don't feed him anything or eat anything yourself without testing it first.
[ Emerald's face falls. This song is so annoying she wants to puke? What the hell is this, let her talk to Akashi, 0/10 worst ride it's not even fast enough to distract her... ]
[ adjalf oh no... he can tell just from the music alone that Emerald is displeased, and he's not sure what to do because he can't just ignore it?? So he gets down from his horse so he can go to her and then the attendant actually calls him out via loudspeaker.
"Sir! Please remain seated for the duration of the ride!"
And now everyone is looking at him??? But he just wants to go to Em and hold her hand because he doesn't want her to have a bad time!!!! ]
[ She looks surprised when he gets up, then shrinks a little when the loudspeaker goes off. Emerald... doesn't really like being noticed that much. Especially not called out. For all she is, she actually.. doesn't like getting in trouble at all. She quickly undoes the belt that's got her strapped to the lion and slips off, then runs for him and grabs his wrist, pulling him over to one of the ornate benches that are designed for tired parents to sit on while their kids ride on the animals. Once they're seated, she puts her hands together in an apologetic gesture toward the attendant and hopes that's the end of it. Please don't stop the ride because of them.............. ]
[ Akashi keeps his head low and inches close to her until the gap between them is no more. This is mortifying... he didn't mean to start a scene.......
This also happens to be the longest three minutes of his life. ]
[ Emerald thankfully doesn't stay mortified for quite as long. Mostly because there is hilarity in them hiding under her jacket on a children's ride. So about thirty seconds under the jacket, Emerald cracks a smile and sneaks a kiss to his cheek to try to comfort him. ]

[ Whatever the max number is... Emerald swings from trees with her weapons she likes this kinda stuff.
Then she can see a coaster in the distance and she points to it. ]
That many.
no subject
[ He wanted a wild guess! Like that time she showed him a giant tub of cream and fruits and she wanted him to guess what was in it. ]
no subject
[ She can't actually tell what's loops and drops from here so she could be wrong easily. ]

I can use my sickles to swing from tree to tree while dodging monsters and bullets. I better be able to handle that many.

no subject
There's a ferris wheel nearby, as well as a carousel.
[ In fact, the carousel is right in front of them... ]
no subject
[ Because it's right there. Emerald is actually fine with just walking around and going on whatever they find. ]

The white horse looks a little like Yukimaru.

Emerald picks the lion behind the horse. ]
no subject
Not for long... He'll be back to normal soon.
no subject
[ She reaches over to pat the carousel horse to tell Akashi to sit. Or ask him anyway. Whatever he interprets seat patting as. ]
no subject
[ Yukimaru's gonna be back to normal!! Akashi's going to be so happy ;; And yes, he does sit down on the horse. As if he'd pick any other mount. ]

[ Something out of Alice in Wonderland. ]
What would you do?
no subject
[ cut a bitch until he tells her how to fix him
that's not the response Akashi wants
what is she supposed to do in a situation like that? ]
Pass.
[ Smooth. ]
no subject
[ He looks over his shoulder to look at her while the ride begins. ]
What's that supposed to mean?
[ SUDDENLY, MUSIC. He can barely hear himself as he continues. ]

Akashi looks away, ashamed, but his hold on Emerald's hand tightens. ]
I acted without thinking.
