R looked over and whoa, suddenly she was closer than he thought she was.

It did drive home again how slow he was.

"Try...ing!" R grunted.

His limp sped up a fraction more, R getting an awkward loping look as if he was gonna get dumped off his stump if she so much as looked at him wrong. He teetered forward, and, impossibly, kept going. It wasn't a run, nowhere close but he was making progress and that was about all they could ask for at this point. By now they were close enough to feel the heat coming off Thunder Mountain. Another firework spun into the side of it, lighting one of the tracks on fire as it exploded into sparklers.

"You...see anyone?" R asked, turning to his new best friend.

She looked more alive than he did, so he assumed maybe she had better vision. Y'know, two eyes are better than one. She seemed like a sharp girl and even better, she hadn't changed her mind so far. R was all for shuffling into the blaze and seeing where that got him, but he remembered oh yeah, Living girl here. Different...limitations.
