[Somehow, Haruka hadn't expected someone younger, someone he'd have to look down a little to talk to; then again, he has no idea what he expected. Nothing about the app has been particularly predictable, but he's finding meeting and recognizing his fellow not-so-demons in the real world particularly disorienting. It's not entirely a bad thing, though.
Judging by their acquaintance so far, neither of them are particularly the type to act their age, which is likely how they ended up here in the first place. He's willing to accept working with those who are willing to act -- that's all there is to it.
For the moment, he leads Michi next to the scooter to show him where to get on, making certain he won't bang into anything or trip over himself with the limited visibility. No need for that again. It's funny: he's normally the more cautious one in groups, but it's likely because he's the driver here that he has a little more free reign. That being said, even if he were some kind of kidnapper whose sick mother needed money for medicine or whatever, it's a little harder to kidnap someone on a scooter. First of all, his scooter doesn't even go all that fast -- some cyclists can pass him on a bad day.
Still, as they get ready to putter off and before he gets his helmet on, Haruka takes a moment to tell his passenger over his shoulder:]
Don't worry. I'm a pretty good driver. We'll head south, and go north if we need to.
[And he is. He doesn't quite go grandma-speed, granted: caution vs. delivery times is a factor here. They'll make decent time as long as traffic holds.]
