[Carpet's field of vision is 'yes'. Yes, he can see that, whatever you're doing. Yes, he has a perfectly clear view of your butt if you're sitting on him. Yes, any normal human except a Hyuuga would go crosseyed trying to mentally process a complete 360 degree field of vision. He doesn't really need the signal, but he waits for it anyway, mostly because it's polite to give a passenger all the time they need to settle in.

Once he gets the all clear, though, he doesn't hesitate. He shoots into the sky like an arrow, a swift and steep ascent that has the wind roaring around them, brisk and cold. (Even so, there's probably not as much force exerted on him as Akechi might expect--any sorcerer designing a completely open vehicle that can travel at such speeds is bound to have woven in enchantments to ensure their own safety as a passenger.) The ground falls away beneath them, buildings steadily growing smaller; for the moment, Carpet is mostly interested in gaining altitude, not going anywhere in particular.

After all, it's a spectacular view, isn't it? Even if it didn't help him decide where to go beyond the sand paths, Akechi ought to be able to see his new home in full.]
