[He's about to say he's got it, but then the cab brakes hard at a stoplight and he can feel himself start to slip and he doesn't have arms like this shit shit shit--!
It almost looks like he's going to strike. He's so quick to try to catch himself that he has to launch his top half over Ryou's lap to get to the arm. Once he gets his head and neck hooked around Ryou's remaining elbow, then he can hold the rest of himself up, and he does not slide onto the floor.
Whew. A little muffled, he says:]
...I'm not used to not having arms at all...
[Much more slowly, Atem's going to reposition himself, slithering up so more of his body crosses Ryou's legs and slips around his elbow and his head can hover around eye level, reared a foot or two back from Ryou's face.]
As long as you don't mind, I think I'll hold on like this the rest of the way!
