Back home I piloted things sorta similar to these. Same aesthetic, but, think, different style. I'm a mech pilot, and I used to protect my home regularly. I asked for these, so I could kind of like... reminisce on occasion. Also they're badass.
All of these are just for decoration and not something capable of being worn. And something like this wouldn't even fit inside a vehicle. They're basically meant to be portable tanks - used both defensively and offensively.
I think I can handle you behind the wheel without a suit of armor.
...nnnno. I don't think a lot of these are something I need all that often, BUT they do come in clutch a lot of the time. Like the Firetruck! True Story; I never thought I'd be putting out fires with that thing.
I know! [ reaches for his arm and tugs him over to something more… normal. one of her sports cars. ] Alright, so this is a normal car. [ … ] Normal, for me anyway. But because this is your first time driving and, uh, seeing a car… [ motions to the junker besides it. it’s not a bad car, but definitely just so damn normal. ]
We’ll be taking your test drive in this. If you do well, then I’ll let you drive something fun~ [ she’s going to get it on the teleporter. ] Ready to head to the garage?
[ Zhongli fumbles but manages to catch the key ring as it's thrown at him. And then before she goes over the balcony, the last thing she'll see is his eyes widening as he realizes what D.Va is going to do.
[ sorry, zhongli, she doesn't trust you to be smart... so she is going to catch him, though she does catch sight of the aibou so she can feel SOMEWHAT relieved. ]

Anyway, let's head into the garage. [ doot doot doot. ]
no subject
[ But whatever else he was thinking about rambling on about gets lost as his eyes widen at just how BIG the garage is.
And how colorful DVa's vehicle collection is. ]
Oh my...

Is this something that you need often?

But the Limo Hot Tub is totally a party wagon!

[ And don't mind Zhongli, but he is going to circle the entire garage taking stock of each and every vehicle that is stored here.
Look.
There are no such things where he's from so all of these look new and magical. ]

[ it's probably something like this. ]

Just wow.
He has no words. ]

Yes, I am ready.
[ Bowing his head to her in thanks ]
I will do my best to live up to your expectations.

[ heads to the balcony and flashes him a quick smile before jumping off - summoning her aibou mid air to land on and get safely to the ground. ]
Come on Zhongli!
no subject
Hmmmm. Is he supposed to follow?
. . . Probably.
He also jumps over the balcony. ]

Maybe in my youth. Old habits - I suppose.
