Ninth Wings

[blackmagicangel]

I suppose I should be grateful to the island for granting me such a benign power as the ability to transform into a dragon, especially after hearing about many of the other powers that have been spread amongst us. Yet I cannot feel too grateful for this when several of my friends have been taken from me, even if they did return to their respective

I'm very sorry... for your loss.

I wonder if this is how everyone felt when I left before.

[blackmagicangel]

Likely so. I'm afraid I did not know you when you were here before, so I cannot say for certain.

I am Nina Wyndia. You are?

[clutzy_chosen]

Well, my friends are happy that I'm back... so I probably shouldn't think about it, right?

It's nice to meet you, Nina! My name's Colette.

[blackmagicangel]

Right. It's difficult not to worry, but it is the best way to go about it.

A pleasure to meet you, Colette. You have only recently gotten here, then?

[clutzy_chosen]

Yes! I got here a few weeks ago! Everyone was so helpful, so I didn't have any problems at all.

[blackmagicangel]

Sounds like you met the right people, at least. Have you recalled anything yet?

[clutzy_chosen]

Um... [thinks] No, I don't think so. I can move through things, but everyone says that's because of the event that's going on.

[blackmagicangel]

Ah, yes. These things happen occasionally. Likely you will not have the ability for much longer. Similarly, as I mentioned, I can take the form of a dragon.

Hopefully, you shall remember something soon. It tends to be a good feeling, at least at first.

[clutzy_chosen]

[actually because her mun fails, so sorta missed that]

A dragon? Really?

[blackmagicangel]

[And with a flash of light, there was a dragon unleashing a MIGHTY ROAR!]

[clutzy_chosen]

[FANGASMS and claps her hands]

That's so amazing!

[blackmagicangel]

[And with another flash, Nina was hovering a few inches off the ground.]

I must say, the sensation of flying in both forms is vastly different - and exciting.

[clutzy_chosen]

Oh right, you have wings too! [glances upwards]

Then you must feel very at home in the sky.

[blackmagicangel]

To an extent. There is not much consideration for the few of us with wings on the ground.

[clutzy_chosen]

[blinks] Um, what do you mean?

[blackmagicangel]

Here, stand still.

[She walked up close to Colette, no more than a foot away from her face. The two girls were the same height and the same size - but Nina's wings alone gave her a much larger form.]

Do you see what I mean now? We are roughly the same size, but due to wingspan, I am invariably larger. Things like doorways can be... tricky, to say the least.
