Rhys was taking one of his afternoon strolls about the grounds, looking up at the clouds and wondering what it would be like to fly with them, run circles around them, dive through them and burst into the open sky below...

His reverie, however, was interrupted by a wind-blown piece of paper smacking him in the face. After a moment of panic, he realized that he was not being kidnapped by Tallahassee again, and pulled the paper off of his face to examine it. It was covered in pen-markings that appeared to be writing, but it wasn't terribly legible to him. He looked around him, partially to see who this had gotten away from and partially to see if anyone had noticed him flailing about a moment earlier. However, his surroundings seemed devoid of any other students.

He looked back at the paper in his hands. I wonder what this is...?

Having decided to review his work so far, Gonzo had been struck by a sudden panic, realizing that the most brilliant and crucial page of his masterpiece was missing from the whole.

"Oh man, where could it have gotten to?!"

The hook-nosed creature stopped looking in the abandoned bird's nest he'd found to scan the horizon for other promising locations, noticing a boy a little way off conducting some sort of odd, ritualistic dance that seemed to involve a lot of windmilling of the arms.

"That looks kinda fun... hey! Wait!" Recognizing the piece of paper the student had just removed from his face, Gonzo bounced up and down on his branch in a hazardous way whilst waving his furry arms hopefully.

"Hey! Kid! That's mine!"

Rhys looked up from the paper to see the blue... whatever... bouncing around in a tree. Ah. He turned to face him. "Oh, good, I was wondering who this belonged to. I was trying to read it to see whose it might be, but I couldn't make anything out..."

He started on his way toward the tree. He looked up at him. "Hey, you're Gonzo, right?" As if it could be anyone else...

About to declare that the reason the note couldn't be read was probably because this intrepid discoverer simply did not have the artistic vision to comprehend such manifest genius, Gonzo was distracted enough by the recognition not to make this shrewd and no doubt rather insulting observation.

He struck an appropriately dramatic pose.

"But of course! Who here could mistake the striking and inspiring visage of... GONZO THE GREAT!"

The announcement's impressiveness was somewhat undone by a particularly lively breeze knocking Gonzo off his branch and into the foliage of a bush in a flurry of fur, paper and leaves.

[A windy day such as this was one that always appealed to Chopper, and so he stepped out, a scarf about his neck and in the shape of a traditional reindeer, for a walk about the school grounds.]

[Finishing one of the BEST AND MOST AMAZING PAGES EVER with an expression of great accomplishment, Gonzo made a haloo of success at having managed to pen his genius at last- before it got swept away by the elements, the wind carrying it away from his furry fingers.]

HEY! STOP THAT PLAY!

[Feeling a strong wind whip past him, Chopper stopped as he saw a lone page of paper flying by, and the cry of someone that must have needed it. Always the type to help out when needed, Chopper begins to gallop to try and catch the paper. Flying about as if it were alive.]

[With a leap, the reindeer is airborne, and suddenly shifts into his smaller, toddler sized shape so he can catch it and hold it firmly in his two hooves. He misses the first two times, but the third time he's able to catch it and hangs tightly on to it.]

[Having caught the escaping page, he scampers back to where he ad heard the person calling out, but can't seem to find anyone.]

I got yer page! Where are you?

[Watching the leaping... something, jump gracefully about after the piece of paper, Gonzo had to catch his jaw before it fell the to the ground. Seeing Chopper successfully grabbing the sheet he gave a joyful yell at the creature's success, quickly clambering down the tree to go and retrieve his art and thank his benefactor.]

Here I am! Woah, that sure was cool mister- [He emerged, scuttling out from behind the undergrowth in his dapper spats and horrendously checkered sweater-vest.] Thanks! [He took the paper back off Chopper lovingly.] How did you do that?!
