cid highwind ✈ eighth flight
Who: Cid Highwind and somarium
Where: IN THE SKIES
Style: Either?
Status: OPEN.
Notes: This is mostly a mingling/spectator post. The airship can be heard and seen from practically everywhere as Cid's flying it all over Somarium. Feel free to just thread with each other or, if you know him, give Cid a call.
For those near the floating mountain and the lake, during the mid-morning, the sounds of large engines roaring to life could be heard. But this wasn't just for testing. This was for real. The roof of the hangar was slowly opening outward, and after a few minutes, the airship that had long been inside the hangar was finally going to stretch it wings.
As soon as it was clear, the Dreamcatcher slowly rose out of its nest, moving vertically upward. As much as he wanted to already be up there in the sky, Cid was taking his time. First test flight, and the last thing he needed was to have it crash down on everything.
But soon he had his wish. After successfully rising several hundreds of feet in the air, he drove it forward, and soon everyone on deck and everyone left standing below witnessed and cheered as the first ever airship built and flown in Somarium started to soar across the skies.
Those on the ground would be able to hear the hum of the engines-not too loud, but distinctly noticeable-and should they look up they would see the large airship flying over their heads, casting a large shadow across the ground.
She was flying. After a year since he first designed it, Cid was finally back where he belonged: behind the wheel of an airship and in the skies.
[ooc: For anyone not familiar with the Final Fantasy franchise, Cid basically built a very fancy looking dirigible, or blimp. Only it looks less like a blimp it's more like a cross between a plane and a sea ship. Kind of like this or this (I got too lazy to try and actually figure out the design, have fun with your imagination >_>;)
But yeah, basically a mingling post, feel free to tag with one another. Those who have worked with Cid and would most likely be on the ship are. If anyone knows Cid, feel free to call him up on the Dreamberry.]
