[ Makoto knows that it would be easier if he just hugged her, and that it wouldn't mean anything, but she really needs her mind completely focused on driving. Even with Johanna's help at the wheel, and the fact it shoots pretty strong beams of light, Makoto isn't comfortable at all driving on the frozen terrain. ]

Yes, that's good enough. We should manage to reach the main group in a moment.

[ Riding Johanna might prove to be an experience; the bike is rather large in proportion to its rider, but Makoto seems to easily maneuver it. It also moves with unexpected smoothness, and the engine purrs powerfully, yet the vehicle remains completely vibration-free.

Also, it seems to glow a bit now and then. Odd. ]

Oh, by the way: I'm Makoto. Makoto Niijima. Nice to meet you.

[ Might as well try to be polite. ]
