When Kaz looked up to see who had come running, he got another face full of smoke, his eyes watering as he took in the blurry figure of Leon. With all that red and white, it would be hard to mistake him as anyone else. Kaz took off his hat, using it to try and fan away some of the smoke so the two of them could breathe again.
“I don’t know!” He cried in response to the other boy’s question, wiping his eyes clear of tears before putting his hat back on. “I found a piece of shit DeLorean in the junkyard when I went to go look for spare parts, and I couldn’t just leave it there, so I had them bring it here to see if I could fix it.” He’s forced to pause as he coughs a few more times, it leaving the taste of burnt oil on his tongue. “I was just trying to see if it would start since the engine didn’t look that bad, and it just exploded!” He threw his arms up in an imitation before giving a heavy sigh, shoulder again hitting the doorframe with a muted thunk. “Should’a known it wouldn’t be that easy, I just got too excited...”
He was quite for a moment, sighing again before poking his head back into the shop the see if the smoke had cleared. Hopefully the fire department wouldn’t show up this time...
Deeming it clear enough, Kaz kicked the door open more fully as he wiped a splatter of oil off his cheek with his sleeve, though he only really succeed in smearing it across his skin. When he turned to face Leon again, he must have looked like quite the sight, covered in the vile smelling liquid like he was. “Hey, do you think you could lend me a hand for a sec? I need someone to hold a flashlight while I check the engine again.”
