Just so no one thinks he's actually a nice guy for too long, he takes his own set of controls and starts blasting away. He hasn't ridden this thing in a long friggin' time, but that doesn't mean he forgot how it goes. Zap, goes the first target, same with the second, and they explode into stars and he stops looking over to see how Lara's doing and just focuses on it. Guns (laser or otherwise) aren't his weapons of choice, but he's really friggin' good with 'em.

And this gets to be a thrill all its own, combining two of his favorite things: speed and blasting things. When he was a little kid -- Squirt, his oldest brother used to call him and he hated the fuck out of that -- the whole family came here one time. He was probably six, seven, and his mom thought he was too young for this ride but that same brother said fuck no he was old enough, and went on this with him and it was friggin' great. He made Riley ride it with him like... five more times before they finally went off someplace else. Yeah, there's reasons he adored his brother.

But now it's just him and Lara and a lot of holographic targets, and it's still fun but in a different, more competitive way. As they move away from the ghost area into the canyon, time goes so fast he barely even notices it.

This is fun.
