[ It's not a long walk, but it seems to take years. Hakkai's a twitching mess, jumping at every gust of wind or rattle of leaves, sometimes at nothing at all. They're trying to get us, he'd said. They. Is it a specific they, he wants to ask? Or just monsters?

He won't ask.

He spots Jeep before Hakkai says anything... and if a car could be said to be uneasy, then that's one uneasy car. ] I don't know! [ --he laughs; his arm's a white-hot ball of pain, now that the shock is fading, but he's determined not to let Hakkai know how bad it is. Not yet, anyway. ] I've never driven a car before. Guess we're gonna find out!

[ Jeep might be uneasy, but it -- he? -- is also solid, and Gojyo leans into his fender with relief. ]

Hi, car. [ He pats the hood like he'd pat a dog. ] Hakkai's seeing things, so I'm gonna drive. Be nice, okay?
