It's not like a little tumble would hurt me much anyway.
( do you know how many explosions he's lived through.
julian prefers the whole leather jacket with ripped jeans ensemble, which is what he usually sticks with. luckily, despite arriving here in uniform, he had managed to find one - so it's what he's currently wearing. but with the threat of a potential tumble ahead, he does go ahead and remove the jacket and sets it down just in case. wouldn't want to fuck up perfectly good leather. once that's off, he drops down into one of the psionic go-karts, running a hand over the steering wheel and to the gear shift just to make sure it's all physically touch-able and not just there to look pretty.
and from his seat - )
You map out a finish line yet? How far away is it?
( At that, he looks off into the distance and, with a wave of his hand, he creates a psionic pole with a flag attached to it, waving there in the wind to show the finish line. )
Better?
( It's asked as he rounds Julian's car, blue eyes watching him with a faint smirk on his lips before he's settling himself down into his go-kart. They're very much touchable β very much real in all their glow-y blueness... as long as he's able to hold the constructs, but. He doesn't think that'll be much of a problem and, it's a way for him to practice more. Plus, if he burns out? Oh well. Been there, done that a few times already. Nothing new there.
Settled and hands on the steering wheel, he looks over to Julian then. )
( but alright, he's got this. does julian even know how to drive a real car? probably not, but it's not like it's information he's ever needed anyway. he knows how to use a steering wheel and how to press down on the gas pedals which is clearly good enough.
a countdown isn't necessary, is it. nor is a "go", so instead julian just throws nate a grin over his shoulder and slams his foot down against the gas.
( This is where Supermassive Black Hole starts playing because it's time they're off.
Foot to the psionic pedal, he takes off from his spot for the lifted track that will take them into the sky because, again, it's not as though either of them risk any sort of injury if they happen to fall off what with both being telekinetics and all, so. He races his way alongside Julian to the track, laugh on his lips as he goes up the initial ramp for it and keeps to his lane there. )
Careful you don't fall off. Might have to start all over again.
( it's said with a grin, because - it's not like julian can't catch himself and the go-kart if he really wanted to. they're fine, they've got this, and julian definitely doesn't seem even vaguely worried about injuring himself, so.
instead, he presses the petal to the floor and tries to sideswipe nate's car with a laugh. because playing fair is boring. )
