Hey.

[Makoto can tell that this guy is new, from the lack of a shirt to the name(?) yelling. But he's pretty loud! Emerging from a thicket, she raises her voice.]

Hey! Are you done yelling?

[TURN. turn and his face gets a bit of fire around it. It's a nervous habit and he's freaked out okay. His tail also flicks until-

...What is she-]

Whoa- you got a tail.

action; part 1

[planetcrusher]

[Yes. Yes, she obviously does, and so does he. But any snippy remark she might have replied with is lost when the blue flames catches her attention.]

And you've got fire on your face!

[flameson]

[What it's showing?! Crap crap crap he's been training about this. He inhales deeply and exhales, trying to focus at the flickering in the corner of his eyes. And it... vanishes]

...Oh! You're like... a flying squirrel!!

action; part 1

[And what's a baastkin. But this is clearly the most relevant question]

action; part 1

[planetcrusher]

They glide.

But let me guess, the wings [she jerks a thumb back at her own] gave you that idea.

action; part 1

[flameson]

...But don't you need wings to glide?

action; part 1

[planetcrusher]

[Augh, this again.]

[flameson]

[But okay, so she's a squirrel... thing. Actually-] Do you wanna kill me something? Actually, do you got my sword?

action; part 1

[planetcrusher]
