[ Number three is such a shitty answer, Mafuyu feels justified in squinting up at him in disgust. ]
You should believe in yourself more! You're taller than me and... [ What else? She tries to think (not very hard) but quickly comes to the conclusion that haha, yeah, that's right, she is better than him in every other way. ] Well, that's it, but you shouldn't give up so easily either!
[oh shit...he knows that look....she's right tho.... it was a shitty reason]
I'm not a kid, I can't just go running all over town. [beat] Do you want me to just drive? We'll get there faster and you can get your pizza and cherry soda or whatever it was ya were talkin' about.
[ Out of the goodness of her heart, she will let him drive, only because he insists, not because she's dying for pizza and will murder if the cherry soda runs out. Hands back on Majima's back, she redirects him towards the parking lot. ]
But you know, when I turn sixty, or however old you are, I'm still going to be running around! You need to exercise or you'll get fat and your bones break down.
[but he leads her to his car all the same. it's an audi that's a few years old now, but it was clearly a well loved and must've been pretty rad when it was new.
[ If he's 23 and complaining like a geriatric, she's even more worried for him. At seeing his car though, Mafuyu leaves his side and runs over to the front... to the wrong side. ]
[ >O is the face Mafuyu makes at being pulled back. ]
Come on! How am I supposed to ride anyways if I can't touch Adrienne?
[ Why is that the name of his car? She's just going to roll with it, because the more important point is wanting to drive it and she will argue semantics for that right. ]
[ If the cops pull him over halfway to the pizza place, it's all on him. Gritting her teeth, Mafuyu contemplates for a moment whether raising a fuss would be worth missing out on the soda, but ultimately complies, sliding onto the backseat of the car... and then stepping right over the middle divider onto the passenger seat on the front. Pulls the seat belt over her chest and locks it in place. There. Can't kick her back now. ]
[majima just kind of glares at her. this is a nice car!! but doesn't press the point further. he sets her bag down on the backseat, actually taking care with her stuff and then gets in to drive. okay! off they go]
Damn, ya don't gotta look like I kicked your puppy. We're still goin' for pizza.
[ It's only because of the pizza that Mafuyu doesn't punch Majima on the shoulder very hard. Only slightly hard. Not enough to make him serve and crash before they even make it out of the parking lot, but enough to make her irritation known. ]
If you did that, I'd be a lot angrier! You threaten my dog again and it'll be your face next time.
[ How dare he suggest kicking sweet Chicken Nugget?? ]
Or— I'll let you off the hook if you teach me out to drive!
I can do that! [ She demonstrates by giving him a mock right hook to the arm. Hold onto that steering wheel, Majima. ] Same rules apply, right? No aiming for the face!
[ She has some honor in her fist fighting... mostly because bruised arms and legs can be hidden but missing teeth and bleeding noses is when teachers get called in. ]
