They sure are going far past the city, aren't they? As the silence falls on the party while they journey, Shinji's mind begins to wander a bit. This all still feels like a bit much for all three of them, is there something big happening out here...? Like maybe a tea party off the beaten path, or some special day for someone. He's not trying to draw any huge connections, but as the gears start slowly turning in his head, a realization dawns on him.

He is someone. And today is, perhaps, a significant one. Hadn't he been trying to keep an eye on these two in case they tried to pull anything funny around, say, todayish?

He can't entirely rule out the idea that there's something not-him-centric happening, but now. Now he is suspicious. He's not even sure how he'd bring it up at this point, so best to keep these thoughts to himself, he figures. Let's just get a better look at this spot Kai's stopped at.

"It's so nice out here," he says, marveling at the scenery around them as Kai slows the bike. He's definitely picked a good spot, if that awe is anything to go by.
