In all honesty, school could be boring, but there were so many new things to learn that Leslie often found herself soaking in the new information faster than a sponge absorbing spilled fruit punch. She might not use everything, but just the idea of a world of endless knowledge was enough to allow her to return to the classroom each day, refreshed and prepared to learn.

Flying was one of those new somethings. Wondering what her parents (or even Harry) might have to say to this, Leslie reached forward to grasp NiGHTS' hand with her own. "No pixie dust?"

Listening to Owl drone on and on was enough for NiGHTS. While he considered the other a good friend of his, it didn't mean that NiGHTS liked listening to Owl's long, boring lectures (or what were shaping up to be; NiGHTS never stuck around long enough to find out) on how he should behave or explanations about things he already knew.

When Leslie took NiGHTS hand, she appeared to be instantly absorbed into the maren, as though she were possessing him. NiGHTS laughed and rose into the air, taking the girl with him. "Nope! Just Dualizing."

The sensation was unlike anything she could have imagined. True, it was strange...dualizing? But flying...

She couldn't help smiling, closing her eyes for the moment. Weightless, unstoppable, carefree of gravity and everything else beneath them. There was no way her thoughts of flying could compare. Like reaching the top of a swing, to hover in the air for a moment before falling back down, except it was continuous. They didn't fall back down.

They flew.

NiGHTS laughed upon feeling the familiar sensation of Dualization. It had been awhile since he'd done it, and it was fun to do so again. He lifted up in the air effortlessly, stretching out his arms and twirling slowly. It was obvious the girl was already enjoying it - and hey, a little enthusiasm never hurt anybody. Okay, maybe it did, but that was all just part of the fun, as far as NiGHTS was concerned.

"Well?" he asked Leslie, looking over his shoulder as though he could see her (and he could, sort of - and while NiGHTs was the only one visible, Leslie was the one who was mostly in control here). "What do you want to try first? I suggest getting used to moving around first, but we can play it by ear." Not that NiGHTS had ears - but he supposed he could make some for himself if it ever came down to it.
