[ ...it's nice. It's nice to see her smiling so freely. So Shirou sucks up all his dubiousness and discomfort, and he aims the car at Ilya's... ]

No, you won't! I'll win this ro...und...

[ He tries to suck up all his discomfort, anyway. But it rushes up his esophagus and-- ]

BLEEEEARRRGH

[ The zombie guts were just too much. He throws up all over the bumper car's controls. ]

we're really getting on nasu's level in here now

[ ...

Okay, that makes her stop her car, blinking at him instead. At first it seems like disgust mixed with surprise, but once she realises what's really going on, it changes to something more like concern. ]

Huh..? Shirou, are you okay?

it's practically an h-scene up in this joint

[youlostme]

[ He stares bleakly at the befouled controls for a moment, suddenly ashamed of ruining this nice time. He really should have been able to control himself better... ]

Uh, Ilya, it's nothing--

[ It sort of is. After all, it's not the gore that bothered him. Nothing like that ever really gets to him anymore. It hasn't for a very long time.

It's just the mess and the smell, and if they were fresh dead bodies and not rotting ghouls he'd probably be fine, and--no, that's not true. It's also the dissonance of seeing Ilya surrounded by this gruesome scene, enjoying herself. ]

Why don't you go see where I can get a mop and a bucket, or something like that? I'd better clean things up. And don't make things hard for her!

[ He directs the last comment, with a weak glare, at a nearby shambling ghoul. ]

inserts random sea creatures metaphors into my tags

[ No way he can just be fine if he just threw up, right? Even if he says it's nothing, it doesn't feel like it's nothing. And she genuinely doesn't get what could have caused it since she really was enjoying all of this, it was a fun time at an amusement park with Shirou - the kind of thing she never got to have before and never thought she would.

It's why she stares in bewilderment for a few more moments before she nods slowly, like a kid who was just told to go to their room, and slowly climbs out of her bumper car. ]

I don't know if I can find something like that here though..
