It's a dumb wish. But for the moment, everything feels peaceful. Nothing exists outside of this track and Musashi's cheeky wink, the pleasant burn of exertion in her muscles and the wind gently whipping past them. Lucy feels a kind of stillness that she hasn't experienced in a long time, something eminently calming.
But, of course. They have a race to get back to.
Musashi's offer has her laughing, and before Musashi can even think to take it back, Lucy's blowing her a kiss and whirling, setting off at a dead sprint. "So generous, Musashi-chan!" she calls back playfully.
The next obstacle is deceptively simple: a constantly spinning log that they have to make their way over. It's stupidly long, too, a good twenty meters from start to finish. Lucy figures the best way to approach it is keeping light on her feet but staying fast, and though she has to windmill her arms out for balance, her approach works well enough in the first half.
