The driver chuckles softly, turning back around to rev up his bike a bit and warm up its engine.

Her gentle embrace felt like every sweet little treat in the world, bundled into one great big ball of joy. Truly, there couldn't be a greater feeling under the sun! She chose him, out of all the fish in the sea...and that's just something Leon's gonna have to work all his life to pay back. --

He laughs softly, seeing her intense curiosity over his steel horse. Warm, hazel eyes take their time to offer a brief wink, before turning downward.

"Aw, darn...I really thought I had it that time~" The young man chuckles, happy to have his vision back. But even happier to get a kiss from his lovely girlfriend, who he sees now in all her grace.

He hums, knowing his sultry words had some sort of effect on the cutie. She feels a good bit warmer now, after all! He leans his head to the side, letting it rest against the mage's own.

"What about...a lovely guardian angel, whose beauty knows no end, here to bless a lucky, undeserving soul?"

"I wouldn't have expected a regal woman like yourself to have much interest in machinery...so the feeling's mutual, friend. We oughta grab a drink sometime. Y'know, to commemorate our common hobbies."

Jeez, she's too damn nice...granted, it's a lovely change of pace from the usual miscreants he hangs out with, but it's honestly a bit jarring.

And...did she just call him--

"Eugh, just Leon will do. Mister Cortez is my father, and I don't amount to half of what he could do in a workshop." --

"W-what the--?!"

Leon is taken by complete shock, flailing around for just a moment until he hears that heavenly voice ring in his ears. Knowing now that it's not some random assailant, he calms back down.

"Good question...is it...a young, lovely princess from a foreign land I've never heard of?"

Good grief...the bougie blonde really knew how to lay it on thick, didn't she? Luckily, it was *so* thick that the dingy mechanic knew better than to take her words seriously.

Leon's found himself a cowboy hat, and he's celebrating the occasion by taking some sick potshots at a tower of cans he set up outside his workshop.

-- Leon lets out a sigh, totally unsure what to make of this golden girl he'd only just met. The one thing he does know is to play it safe around crocodile tears..lest he find himself trapped.

"But more importantly...what's your name, miss? I don't think I've had the pleasure of meeting ya before."
