[ stopping the car and pulling the breaks, eren clicks the door open and lets it rise (god this is so extra), prodding elliot’s arm to switch with him, walking over to the other side to squeeze into the back seat once john comes out and gesturing for him to hop up to the front with elliot. ]

Go for shotgun— Pretty sure we have enough time for everyone still.

[ and once he’s in the back, john can pull the seat forward to the front to sit with elliot, but to dave: ]

You need to try it out, Dave. At least once.

[fiddlestick]

[It IS extra but so is Eren so it works? Elliot looks quite eager as he climbs over into the driver seat. He'll take a moment to adjust his seat, since he is much shorter than Eren, but man is he clearly excited to drive]

Be sure to buckle up everybody!

[parodeity]

If you want? Drivin' is chill, it's just never been my raison d'être. [ well, he likes driving john's car sometimes, but that's different.

he swings his legs off john's lap once people start moving around, though. ]

[windeity]

[Cool, musical chairs it is. John practically bolts out of the car (because they've been in the car for so long and he swaps to the front seat, shifting the seat to accommodate for his slightly longer legs before turning to face the rest of the group.]

It'll be fun. Eren's car is way nicer than Casey anyway. I think we're ready when you are, Elliot!

[usurpers]

[ they’re good to go, then? they’re good to go. elliot’s the first one up and that just gets his smile to widen as he clicks his seatbelt in and prods john’s side from the back seat. ]

I’d hold the door if I were you.

[ as he opens the back window to let the chilly winter breeze of nature and magatus in to hit their faces. sorry dave. he likes to feel the speed. in his hair.

time to turn up the music. ]

[fiddlestick]

[Yeaaaah cool riding music. Elliot's grinning ear to ear when he hears it's go time.]

Okay, here we go!

[It starts slow, pulling out from the side of the road, giving himself a minute to adjust to the car and how she handles. He seems like a good driver, thanks to all the driving lessons his family made him do in hopes he'd be driving a police car or a military jeep. But as soon as they come across a long straight patch of road? He hits on the gas.

ZOOM ZOOM MOTHERFRICKERS.]

[parodeity]

[ ugh. decent music, but he grimaces anyway because of the band name that automatically pops into mind.

fuck puppets, fuck life

anyway he doesn't seem to mind the speed at all ]

[windeity]

[The brightside: John's comfortable up here and he's fine with Elliot speeding and the music choice.

The downside: he's plastering his face against the window because he doesn't want to figure out how the fuck to roll down the window.]

Seriously though we're almost there, right?

[usurpers]

[ eren laughs as elliot does just what he’s taught him about lovely straights and the roaring engine of sports cars. it’s probably because of john too, to which he reaches between the little cracks between the seats and presses the magic button. behold, front seat window down. ]

See that? [ he points out, to the darkening sky and beautiful array of lights reflecting off the clouds and stars. there’s a larger mountain they’re getting into, enough for their ears to start popping a little. ] I’d say fifteen minutes? Maybe ten the way Elliot’s going.

[fiddlestick]

[SPEEDING ALONG LIKE A DEMON]

What? So soon? But John hasn't drove yet!

[parodeity]

I mean, presumably we eventually will have to drive back. For seven more glorious hours?

[ not that dave cares if he can play random music...he actually doesn't mind the idea of just taking a few pictures, either.

still not thrilled about the weather, but he has given up protesting that? ]

[windeity]

[He's promptly sticking his face out the window, bye.]

Yeah, I don't mind waiting for the drive back! This is a mini-vacation. There is plenty of time for that kind of stuff. I'm excited to get to the lodge and then try the slopes and stuff.

[usurpers]

Or, [ eren shrugs, sticking his hand out the window to feel the air lashing it back. look at elliot go 😭 you’re doing amazing sweetie . . . ] you guys can switch up until we get there. I don’t mind it.

Then you can have the ride back.

[fiddlestick]

Oh, right. [He forgot about the trip back.] Okay John! You'll get dibs on the way back!

[Because Elliot sure don't want to stop now. This is too smooth. John's remarks about this being a vacation brings a smile to his face. Yeah...he could use one alright]

Yeah, I can't wait for the lodge! Sounds really comfortable.

You snowboard John?

[He's assuming Dave from his behavior is just going to hide under a blanket in his room, so whatever]

glad I lost this :|b

[windeity]

Once or twice! I tried skiing and that ended, like, really poorly so snowboarding was what I picked up after that. It's been a while though. [He just kind of eyes Dave in the back, not at all surprised. He kind of feels bad that it's Magatus of all places, but they're together. It'll be fun. It has to be.] I can teach you if you want and don't know how.

[parodeity]

[ dave will hide under ten blankets, it'll be fine. ]

How many sports can you actually do?

[usurpers]

We’re gonna have to race, John.

[ as someone who also has done or is doing like ten different sports, dave gets a nudge. ]

I’m not letting you call us jocks for that either.

[fiddlestick]

Aha thanks John, but I'm planning to stay in the ski lodge as much as possible. [EFF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY]

I'd like to see you two race though!

[windeity]

Is snowboarding really considered a sport? [Yes.] You guys can keep each other company in the lodge and watch through the window then while I beat Eren by a mile. [He might cheat with the wind, we don't know yet.] Anyway it's just soccer and baseball, snowboarding is a hobby.

[parodeity]

You absolutely should have one of those jock jackets at this rate. Both of you. Elliot, you're the only normal one anymore.

[usurpers]

[ eren is offended on two different levels here ]

Actual jocks would hate you for that. [ eren never got along with those guys— well, very little with the majority of groups. as the mountains near and the chill in the air drops to freezing, eren raises his window to close. almost there, it seems! ]

Bets on who wins, no thinking.

[parodeity]

John.

[ bitching aside, he's biased.

also he knows john can cheat. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ don't let him down, babe. ]

[fiddlestick]

Eren.

[He just isn't stupid enough to bet against his boyfriend.]

And me? Normal? You do remember I'm a wizard, right...?

[windeity]

[The window up front gets closed, too, and John eyes the group again before he smirks. Yes, okay, that's super fair.]

So it kind of sounds like we have an even split here and have to settle this bet immediately? What's the winner get? [A beat.] Have you ever realized we are a very weird set of people.

[A wizard, a titan, and two gods. This definitely makes sense.]

[parodeity]

What do you two even want? Choosing dinner rights? [ he's a simple man it's the first thing to come to mind. ] Also speak for yourself I am a set all my own.
