❝ I’ll look at them later, ❞ Octavio managed as he caught his breath. He rolled onto his back, kicking his legs to launch himself back onto his feet. Brushing some dirt off his backside, he jogged over to look at the view from the photographer’s perspective. His eyes narrowed and he tilted his head a bit. The whole place was a bit serene for his tastes. Probably why Joseph was out here in the first place.
❝ We should find someplace else to shoot from. Maybe with the city in the background. Something indust–OH! ❞ Octavio wheeled on Joseph as he had a particular stroke of genius. Or, what he’d call one by his standards. ❝ You think that thing’s strong enough to lift my bike? Hold on! Stay here! ❞
Backing up a few steps, he held out both hands, waving them to emphasize Joseph stay put. He then rounded on his heel and took off across the park to where he’d left his bike in the parking lot. Driving it across the grass…almost certainly illegal. Caution had long since been discarded, though. Soon enough, an approaching engine was audible from the site of the impromptu photo shoot.
At the very least, Octavio was wearing a helmet.
"A-alright,” Joseph gets out, scorning himself for stuttering, but it wasn’t like he meant to, he just wasn’t expecting the sudden proximity.
He’s honestly into the idea, for most of Octavio’s statementーit had been a bit since he’d seen the city skyline, and he was rather fond of it. But he startles a bit when Octavio suddenly races off god knows where.
Bike? He thinks they’re cool and the people who ride them more so, if he’s being entirely honest with himself, but Octavio’s excitement makes him a bit worried about what he has in store. Especially since he apparently wasn’t allowed to follow. He quickly starts feeling like maybe this anxiety isn’t unfounded after all when he hears the rumble of an engine.
Though, the excitement overpowers it. A short 'whatー' slips out before he stifles it, deciding to get back behind his own 'wheel' behind his camera before Octavio starts whatever show he had in mind instead of question it. Whatever happens will happen, as they say...!
