[In their haste to leave for the execution, he may not have seen it yet; still, whenever he returns to the room, he'll see Beck standing next to an electric scooter with a light frown on her face, looking around the rest of the area.]
[Can't believe Beck is about to become the (man who got stabbed) WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO, STAB ME meme, but with a scooter and wall instead.
Anyway since he's a fool and doesn't even think about her lack of depth perception, he carefully steps on behind her, placing his hands on her shoulders.]
[Go she does, then! She's not going at full speed just yet; she imagines he'll probably like this, but in case he doesn't, she doesn't want to just immediately zoom off.]
[She was standing in front, so she's probably smacking into the wall a split second before, so she's taking that moment to stay here and think about the choices that have led her to that point.

...Your prize, I'm guessing? [M...MOSEYING CLOSER TO GET A BETTER LOOK.] What in the world is this supposed to be?
no subject
Oh - it's an electric scooter. It's a vehicle, so you stand on it and push a button to make it move forward.
no subject
It moves? On its own?! Ah - oh! Do you stand on this flat part, then? How fast does it go? Oh, I see the wheels--
[HOW DID HE MISS THEM.]
no subject
[Actually...]
You want a demonstration?
no subject
Yes—!! Show me! I want to see how it works! Where's the button?! How does it work—?
no subject
Come on, I'll explain everything.

The future really does have just about anything you could possibly think up, doesn't it...? Amazing!
no subject
[As she says that, they arrive at a suitably long hallway; she looks back at him with a smile, stepping onto the scooter herself.]
Okay, hop on.
no subject
[And SINGLEHANDEDLY MODERNIZE ANCIENT CHINA.
Though he's. He's just looking at the scooter and then back at her.]
Will it really be able to move with both of us? It's so tiny...
[Even riding with two people on horseback tires out the horse!!]

That being said, she looks his way, gesturing for him to step on.]

Anyway since he's a fool and doesn't even think about her lack of depth perception, he carefully steps on behind her, placing his hands on her shoulders.]
Is this alright?
no subject
Yep! Let me know when you're ready.
no subject
[He's ready to become Sonic the demon.]
no subject
How's that?
no subject
Ah!! You really do just push a button! That's amazing!!
no subject
It's pretty cool. Do you want to go faster?
[famous last words!!]
no subject
[FAMOUS LAST WORDS.]

And when trying to turn a corner, thanks to her newfound lack of accurate depth perception, they sure are both crashing into a wall. Oops!]
no subject
—Beck!! Are you alright?!
no subject
After that long moment passes:]
You okay...?
no subject
no subject
I'm fine, just... surprised and embarrassed that I don't know how to drive a scooter, apparently.
[Press F for her depth perception.]
no subject
Wheeled things! I told you! I almost died when I tried on Tonbokiri's heelies, too.
no subject
I'll never drive a car again...
