( Emma is just super committed to not getting hit by cars. gotta really admire her sticking to those guns. to be fair, being hit by cars isn't great. in another life, he'd likely get to know that very well. in this one, he could only assume. no being hit by cars for this guy, he probably hadn't even managed to jaywalk properly.
he's rather blown away by the audacity of the request, and even stops to stare at her like she's a bit off in the head. frankly, the girl very well might be. she's breaking into the brewery for no particular reason, apparently, teasingly announcing interest in committing more crime, and then she's inviting herself into the car of a stranger. not a real strong sense of self preservation, this one.
he should tell her no. it's not appropriate, to have a strange man drive a young girl home. even if she is a delinquent that would probably break into the brewery again if he just left her behind. that's not really what makes him say yes, though. it's the way she behaves, the spark of unexpected in everything he's already memorized. he'd never have expected her to invite herself to a ride, and something compels him to follow her lead. )
Get in. ( he suggests it, then lifts his brows and watches her with pale eyes, almost like he's daring her to brave it. definitely not the sort of stranger you should take rides from, Emma — even though he'd pretty convincingly played the part of harmless even a second ago. in the flash of the moment, there's a glimmer of something a little more lively. )
