The Roof; Wednesday Night.

[bound2blade]

It really was a nice day. Somewhat cloudy, but not too bad, with the nice warming spike in the weather. The perfect sort of night for flying, maybe a little bit of forgetting to go along with it. So that's what Setsuna did, thinking that she'd like to do this more often now that spring was here.

Nadia wandered quietly up to the roof, then stood just past the doorway for a moment, her face turned into a light breeze, her eyes closed.

"Wow. It really is nice out."

[bound2blade]

"Yeah, it is," Setsuna said softly, having just perched a bit above the doorway in time to hear Nadia's assessment. "It will be so nice having warm weather on its way again."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded emphatically. "Definitely. I feel like I've been hiding out all winter." She turned to smile at Setsuna. "Hey, what's up?"

[bound2blade]

Setsuna smiled back down. "Not a whole lot; just enjoying this." She stretched out her wings to both sides. "Flying's really thereputic."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia couldn't help a moment of jealousy as she nodded. "I bet it is. And getting to do it whenever you want. . . ." She'd flown before, hang gliders and planes, the occasional helicopter. But not on her own wings.

[bound2blade]

"Never actually had that kind of freedom with them until I came here, actually..." Setsuna stood from her perch and jumped down gently, to put herself at the same level as Nadia because she was feeling a little strange being up so high.

[nadiathesaint]

"Yeah? Why not?"

[bound2blade]

"Around here, no one thinks twice about them, really," Setsuna said. "In Japan, however...or, really, anywhere outside of this island, they tend to be a little startling for people. Was allowed to only use them when absolutely necissary...or when I was positive no one was watching, which wasn't often."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded slowly. That made sense. "Have you always had them?"

[bound2blade]

Setsuna also nodded. "I have. Born with them." And hoped the conversation didn't go any further than that. It could be...difficult to dodge around.

[nadiathesaint]

"Cool. Must have been frustrating not to get to use them a lot, though."

[bound2blade]

"Not really," Setsuna shrugged. "I was raised to believe that they were anathema, so the urge to use them often also didn't manifest until just recently."

[nadiathesaint]

Raised to think something that was part of you was bad.

That seemed to be a theme in Fandom.

Nadia nodded. "Still. I'm a little jealous."

[bound2blade]

Setsuna smiled a little. "Sorry..."

[nadiathesaint]

"Pretty sure it's not your fault. You strong enough to carry people with those things, or are you a solo flier?"

[bound2blade]

Setsuna nodded, a little proudly. "Definately strong enough, although flying with someone in your arms is a little tricky because it throws off your balance, alters your center of gravity."
