In which Hugo takes Cecile along to fly with Fubar, who does not spit up any dead animals this time, thankfully.
Hugo: *is outside, looking for Cecile on her normal patrol route.*
Cecile: *happens to be by the front steps, inconspicuously planting orange flowers where weeds once grew*
Hugo: *spots Cecile and waves.* Hello Cecile!
Fubar: *wandering along side Hugo, chewing on random patches of grass he finds*
Cecile: *waves* Hello!!! *finishes patting soil around the last flower and stands*
Hugo: If you aren't busy planting, did you want to go flying with me and Fubar?
Cecile: *pauses and brightens* Now? The weather is so beautiful today, I don't think you could have picked a better time!!
Hugo: Great! *looks over at Fubar.* That okay with you, Fubar?
Fubar: kuueee? *Better time for what? *still munching a patch of particularly awesome grass*
Cecile: *unfortunately, her communicative abilities seems limited to dogs, and she returns the inquisitive look back to Fubar*
Hugo: Flying. Let's go flying Fubar!
Fubar: kuku!!! *Yes! Good day for flying!! *looks to Cecile* kuu? *girl child come too?
Hugo: Yes, if that's okay with you? Do you want her to sit in front of me?
Cecile: *stares quite rudely, not even aware she's doing so. But she is so very amazed by the awesomeness that is Fubar-Hugo communication*
Fubar: *appears to be considering this then nods his big head. He gets down on the ground for easy access* schreeeeeeeee....*Hugo not ask for Elf to ride? Fubar surprised.
Hugo: *looks over at Cecile and smiles.* You ready? I can help you get up on his back.
Cecile: *nods and steps forward, then hesitates* Sir Hugo, I...uhm....
Hugo: *ignores Fubar's comment about the griffon being surprised he wasn't asking if Stallion could ride.* Yes, Cecile?
Cecile: I'm not very....I...ah...I've only been flying once, and it was an accident and someone got hurt. *her words start to jumble* Sopleasebecarefulokay?
Fubar: *huffs in a way only a griffon can huff and begans chewing on his talons while waiting*
Hugo: Fubar is always careful, and he likes you, so he'll make sure we are both safe. *smiles at Cecile, and offers her his good arm so she can climb up on Fubar.*
Cecile: *gingerly takes his arm, then gives Fubar a curious glance as they sit on his back*
Fubar: *wiggles a bit to get them comfortable on his back then slowly stands up*
Hugo: *gently wraps his arms around Cecile to make her feel secure.* Let's go!
Cecile: *clings to Fubar's feathers and gulps*
Hugo: Where would you like to fly, Cecile?
Cecile: Where would be best? I'm afraid I really don't know much about flying...or where...or how...
Fubar: kuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee? *Hugo and girlchild ready? *starts to gallop around the ground to make sure everyone is secure*
Hugo: Yup, Let's go Fubar! Take us wherever you want to go! *Hugo is happy to be on his griffon's back.*
Fubar: *cheers and takes off, his huge wings beating up quite the little windstorm as the threesome wheel up into the sky*
Hugo: *lets out a whoop of excitement.*
Cecile: *so very appreciative that Hugo has a strong grip around her waist, and slowly raises her head to look around, her hair whipping around her face*
Fubar: *flies nicely for the unaccostomed rider, not the wild loops that he'll normally take Hugo on, not too fast either*
Hugo: *points out at the castle* Look at the castle, Cecile.
Cecile: *turns and gasps suddenly* It's so small--!!
Fubar: scheeeeee! *Fubar fly far!!
Cecile: *to Fubar* And to think you can see these wonderful things whenever you want...that is amazing.
Fubar: *nods his head, making the ride slightly bumpier with his enthusiasm*
Cecile: *returns to clinging, Fubar's feathers tickling her face*
Hugo: It is great - almost nothing is better than flying! *turns his face up to the sun and closes his eyes*
Fubar: *continues to fly, taking them eventually to a huge nest in the treetops of an old redwood that was almost 100 meters up*
Cecile: *looks around, but anywhere but down* ...I have never seen things from this perspective before.
Hugo: People look a lot like ants. *Hugo pets Fubar soothingly*
Cecile: Not just that--*bravely releases a hand and makes a sweeping gesture*--look! It's the entire world!!
Fubar: *coos contently and rests for a little bit, letting them look around. Two people is more tiring than he thought*
Hugo: Well, part of it, anyway.
Fubar: kuuee? *girlchild want to see all of world?
Cecile: I forget the world is so large. *looks behind at Hugo* You must have seen so much, since you travelled around during the war, Sir Hugo.
Hugo: Fubar wants to know if you want to see all of the world? We saw a lot, but not all of it, that's for sure.
Cecile: *her expression is unreadable for a moment, then she smiles and looks down, petting Fubar's feathers* My place is here at Budehuc. That is where I will stay.
Fubar: *nods* kuukuu. *Fubar will keep you near home then.
(Is Cecile still looking for her dog?)
(I think so. :D;; Luca never told her where Koichi went. ;_; )
Hugo: *remembers something that Cecile told him* Oh! Did you want to look for Koichi, Cecile?
Cecile: *almost flails, then remembers where she is* That's right!! Koichi!! Ohmygosh I almost forgot!!
Fubar: *looks over his shoulder* kuu? *Koichi?
Hugo: One of the welcome basket dogs. Have you seen any stray dogs on your voyages Fubar?
Fubar: *thinks about this and his stomach seems to gurggle* kuu....*Fubar....no eat dog lately.
Cecile: *pales* ....Luca has already tried that trick. Sir Hugo, tell Fubar it does not work.
Hugo: *does his best to hid his look of surprise about Fubar eating a dog and looks at Cecile.* You know what he said?
Cecile: I heard his stomach. *firm nod* That speaks enough on its own.
Hugo: Well, he says he hasn't eaten dog lately, so that's good, right?
Fubar: schreeeeeee! *Fubar will try and smell dog for girlchild!
Cecile: *nods* That is a relief. I hope he does not eat dogs on a regular basis...
Hugo: He likes rabbits, and moose when he can get them.
Cecile: Moose....? *has only seen a few moose in her lifetime, but they're pretty large. She looks impressed*
Hugo: Do you want to fly around some more, see if we can spot Koichi?
Cecile: Can Fubar smell him? Dogs can smell things, so perhaps...?
Hugo: Yup, Fubar can smell different animals and people even! *is proud of his griffon and gives Fubar some proud strokes on his wings.*
Cecile: Then perhaps Fubar can smell Koichi!!
Fubar: *chirps proudly and stands up again, shaking out his wings carefully to get ready to fly again*
