After getting the gravity issue fixed in his bedroom, Maraich set about on his daily activities. Zero gravity was difficult but he'd been managing fairly well. He pushed himself in the direction he needed to go and floated that way until and slightly upwards until he reached the ceiling, where he pushed himself off again and kept going. For someone who couldn't fly normally it was a lot of fun, even if it did make things take longer.

The biggest problem was that once he pushed off he had no way of steering and slowly floated along until he reached another spot he could push off.

So when he found himself floating in the direction of a giant bird all he could do was flail in the air, trying to find some way to stop.

Uh oh. Well, at least there was air, which means that he could pull together some semblance of flight - Reyson kicked his long skinny legs and beat his huge wings hard, pushing himself back and away from this sudden assailant. By the skin of his teeth ( or, his beak, rather ), Reyson just managed to slip away, though his scaly feet brushed Maraich as he passed.

.. Unfortunately for you, sir, let's hope you don't go crashing into any walls now.

Collision avoided, Maraich slowly kept floating to the ground. The only obstacle he faced now was that he'd gotten himself turned over in the flailing - but that appeared to be no obstacle to him at all as he reached the ground and easily slowed himself with a hand as he reached it, bringing himself to a near-halt.

He sorted himself out and got back upright, glancing around.

"WHOSE BIRD IS THIS?!"
