Yeah! Rides like this are mainly, like... they take you through a themed area so you can look around. It doesn't go too fast so you can have a chance to actually look at everything.
[and also so they can get shot by the animatronics, apparently.]
[He leans forward a little, squinting to see what's ahead. The carriage continues and the beginnings of a spooky village can be seen, with ominous lighting, decrepit-looking buildings, and...
As they proceed, the creepy, jerky movements of animatronic demons come into view.]
[the second arrow also falls to the ground. i'm crying i wasn't even going for that but that's the funniest possible reading of it so sure. they bullseye'd his fucking nostril.
...this isn't a ride, it's a torture device! We've gotta get out of here!
[THWIP. there goes another arrow.
it catches kuranosuke's wig. the long, curly locks are now pinned to the back of their ride, and zelgadis will get to see that kuranosuke is a natural ... uh, blond, i guess? dirty blond? dark blond?]

... What are those?
no subject
[JUST. POINTING AT THEM.]
Yo, are those weapons? Why are they pointing them at us??
no subject
[No... As soon as he says that, one looses the arrow it's pointing at them, and it comes soaring straight their way.]
-- Look out!!
[Perhaps a little too forcefully, he shoves Kuranosuke's head downward, and puts himself in the arrow's path!
THONK.
It slams into his stone face and bounces off.]
no subject
[kuranosuke's head is shoved downward! ...the arrow bounces to the ground. kuranosuke picks it up.]
Whoa, what the heck! Why are these things actually shooting at us?! Dude - are you okay?!

[another arrow comes flying at him while he's not paying attention. it goes THONK as it slams into his nose.]

he watches it go.
but then there's the telltale sound of more animatronics getting into position to fire again...]
no subject
[He stands up, draws his sword, and deflects the next arrow that flies at them with an elegantly-timed strike of his blade.]
no subject
whoa.]
Damn, that was cool! Do it again!
[he will soon get another chance to because they're getting shot at. again.]
no subject
How much longer is this damned tunnel!?
no subject
[they're almost there. kuranosuke points dramatically at it but otherwise does absolutely nothing to be of use.]
