As Ekko and [Name] were both out from the Firelight Sanctuary, the two had their own hoverboards within their grips and walked on through the tunnel. The walk was silent the way through, but it wasn't a measly awkward silence, at least.

Ekko glanced back at [Name], who was trailing not too far behind him, staring at the ground. Once, they looked at Ekko, the white-haired boy quickly looked away and then, cleared his throat to crack the silence.

"Y'know, to make this journey to our destination more interesting: how about we have a hoverboard race?"

[Name] speculated their eyes within utter determination and interest, a confident grin forming upon their face. "Don't challenge me to something, you know you'll lose to, Boy Saviour." The prolonged sentence was uttered out within a sing-song tone of teasing.

Ekko could only shake his head, a chuckle emitted from his lips and threw his head back in laughter. "I should be saying that to you, Firefly. I've beat you in sparring, so I'll be sure to beat you in this as well."

A raised brow was a response directed towards Ekko, "Yeah, right! Get ready to eat my dust, sucker!" [Name] let go of their hoverboard, the contraption floating above the ground and the [Hair Colour]-haired [boy | girl | person] jumped onto it, speeding off through the tunnel on it.

The white-haired boy could only playfully roll his eyes, getting onto his hoverboard and zoomed on after [Name]. "You don't even know where we're going, Firefly!" He called out after them, his echo bouncing throughout the tunnel and [Name's] profound laughter was echoed back in response.

Ekko proceeded to do loops through the tunnel, gaining on [Name] and as he was taking over them, he swooped just over them. As he was in front of them, he glanced back and his smirk grew even more, sending a wink. "Try to keep up, Firefly."

[Name] narrowed their eyes, their head leaning back a bit and let out a small noise of exasperation. Now, the two were out from the tunnel and [Name] did a wallride trick in order to try find a way to overtake Ekko.

In diversion, the white-haired boy did an Ollie North in a sly attempt to mock [Name] for being ahead of them. Though, his attempts were ridden of because of [Name] leaning forward on their hoverboard and flashing through a pipehole that was big enough to let them go through.

Ekko widened his eyes within confusion, his irises dilated in awe from seeing how [Name] made it through the other side and flashed the boy a quick grin 'n wink, within the result for them to taunt him back.

Smugness was written upon [Name's] face, sticking their tongue out at him and a smile twitched upon Ekko's lips. He almost did a Kickflip into one of the shop signs they were passing by, because he was questioning how the illuminating and nauseating green lights of Zaun managed to make [Name] look so....

Enchanting.

He quickly shook his own thoughts away, a face of impression written upon his face and he put his hands up in a surrendering motion. "Alright-Alright, you win, Firefly! Now, I'll lead us on to where our destination is."

...

There they both were, sat on top of a rooftop. The distant sounds of people squandering about were ignored upon both their ears, hoverboards were left aside and an overbearing silence wavered over the two.

As the two were sat on the edge of the rooftop, legs swaying back and forth in motion. Ekko glanced at [Name], clearing his throat. "How does it feel to finally beat me at something, well officially?"

[Name] grinned brightly, pointing a finger at Ekko mockingly. "Feels great! I'm still saying the times I beat you in the sparring count as well, but I finally beat you at something that you admit in agreeing with me as well!"

A small chuckle emitted from Ekko's mouth, turning to the food he managed to scavenge for them. He handed a burger to [Name], grabbing his own and took a bite from it. "Enjoy, not the Piltie food you'd expect to get up top, but this will do."

[Name] took a bit from their own burger, nodding silently. "This isn't Piltie food? I would've assumed! It is of the finest food thy has ever grasped within thine hands." They forced on a tightly high-pitched voice and etched it on to sound sarcastically posh. The two suppressed their laughter.

"Well, I am glad that this food has pleased you, Your Royal Highness." The Firelights' Leader responded gruffly, the two then proceeded to eat their meal and it was actually not that bad.

Maybe, Ekko was really trying to rub it into [Name's] face on how he thought on using this date as someway to get back at [Name], because he really brought a whole ass radio up here as well. Some music even started playing about, Ekko getting up and wriggled his eyebrows at [Name], holding his hand out to them.

"May I have this dance with you, Firefly?" He stepped back, bowing in a sarcastic manner and his leer grew even more.

[Name] let out a noise of fake-shock, dramatically fanning their face with their hand for the effect. "Why, I would love to, Boy Saviour." Grasping his hand, they almost seemed hesitant, but Ekko held a tight grip on their hand and helped them up.

Having a grip on [Name's] waist and hand, Ekko's dazed eyes hazily were in the term of making fun on this situation. [Name] was doing the same, grinning lazily.

The two didn't want to admit how nice the dance was in all honesty.

It was just in their nature to both be stubborn as fuck.
