[ 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. ]
[ He looks straight into Emerald's eyes after she kisses him like that. The realisation sets in that he really does love her. He's happy when he's with her and he's happy when she's happy. He would do anything for her.
He'll get into any kind of stupid situation and be fine with it as long as he's with her. ]
I love you, Emerald.
[ Akashi can't help but blurt it out again, even though they're on a children's ride and even though an annoying song is playing. ]
I know. You were willing to break the rules for me.
[ That's like the most romantic thing that he could possibly do, now that she's had a moment to recover from the mortification of being the center of getting busted. ]
I think this ride is made so parents can't hear their kids screaming more than couples, though.
Have you ever met a child? They scream all the time for no reason.
[ She shakes her head. ] Nevermind. I'm just saying it's loud. I like quiet better, like this.
[ Hiding under her jacket speaking quietly with Akashi because it acts almost as a bit of a sound barrier and she can only hear him.. it's probably weird, but she likes it. ]
[ When the ride comes to a halt, Akashi is first to get up. He pulls Emerald and rushes out so they can get out of there and everyone can forget about Akashi. ]
Okay, weirdo, but which ride would you enjoy being next to me on most?
[ He's so gross. Why does she love this... It's way less gross when it's him doing it than when people she doesn't love do it!! She doesn't know where the games area of the park is though so hopefully they'll just run into it. ]
[ Wasnt he talking about that on the way there? The line is heavily decorated and after the first few feet, it goes underground and all of the jungle items are glow-in-the-dark. It's kinda cool, and the only light they can see are the small lights in the floor so people can see their feet and the glow in the dark trees and mushrooms and a coiled up snake with a too-large, too-human smile. It's all very well designed to try to excite people... and has quite a walk to the actual ride, since they can get quite busy. It's not too bad right now, though. ]
It wouldn't be a proper roller coaster without one.
[ And it's good they don't have to wait that long! The roller coaster can fit a lot of people at the same time, so even though there's a relatively long line, it looks like they'd still be able to get in right away. ]
I think the speed and the height are probably important too, right? Like there's one that looks like it's just straight up and down I saw in the distance, but it's not on our way to the log flume. I want to try that one too.
[ So they can go on it afterward!! She's talking about a ride like this. ]
[ Akashi will lead the way to the back once they're let in, then. They don't get the furthermost seat, but they're still relatively close to the back. ]
Let's try the other one later.
[ Seatbelts, on! The weird lock mechanism thing, on! Safety is very important. ]
[ Emerald wanted to be the furthest back but she doesn't complain or look particularly disappointed. She's excited either way. This is her first roller coaster. She's practically buzzing, even if they're not in the back car. ]
Are you ready?
[ The attendants are going around and yanking at the safety mechanisms to make sure that they're okay, then yelling to signal that they're all safe and good to go. People clear out of the car's area, then the operator launches the ride. ]

[ Gentle rides suck, they're all going to have loud music like this, she's sure. ]
no subject
[ They can ride it 50 times to make up for this sucky ride. ]
It's a bit of a walk though.
no subject
[ Sorry Akashi, she's not big on solid plans. She lowers the jacket finally since it seems like the ride is slowing down. ]

she ends up swinging their hands between them quietly as she follows him. ]
What's your favorite kind of ride?
no subject
[ He's gonna end up liking the bumper cars bc he wants everyone to have a hard time bc of him... ]
Why do you ask?
no subject
[ She pauses, then perks up. ]
I want to play a game and win you a prize, though. That's the only thing I want to do besides the log ride and a roller coaster.
[ She has simple needs. ]
no subject
[ His smile is so genuine though... please don't hit him, Emerald. ]
I wouldn't mind if we just went back than spent the day here.
But... I think I'd like that. Win me a prize.
[ Of course, it goes without saying: no cheating. ]

I just said I would.

no subject
[ She tugs him to the left from behind, some kind of retro neon jungle-themed ride entrance near where she's indicating. ]
no subject
It's pretty tall.
[ This isn't the only roller coaster they have though. There's an even bigger one towards the other end of the park, but Akashi's unaware. ]

Do you want to sit in the front or at the back?
no subject
[ There are so many coasters that don't even have loops, Akashi!! Though Emerald doesn't really know, so she's just trusting him. ]
Which goes faster?
no subject
[ He seems to think so, anyway! ]
You'll feel more weightless if you sit in the back.
no subject
[ So they can go on it afterward!! She's talking about a ride like this. ]
The back then.
