>>66337965Thanks, I know it's not for everyone and I try to keep my thread hostage-ing to a single one and not spill over into 2.
>>66336775>I watch as Naser doubles a quintuple check of Amber's gear before picking her up.>"Alright, I'm going to throw you up and I want you to flap your wings as hard as you can, okay?" he says to her, she nods back up to him, a determined look on her face.>I glance over to Lucy who's chewing her nails, a worried look over her face.>"Relax, she's got enough padding to stop a damned train." I chuckle at Lucy.>I get no response just an angry look as she goes right back to watching Amber like a hawk.>Naser seems really excited about this after hearing that between her inheriting my neanderthal ability to have huge muscle growth via exercise and the Aarons massive wingspan she could probably generate a bit of lift. Or at least so say the doctors. >"Alright, three, two, one..." and up she goes, I watch as she flaps desperately, going a few feet up, just about as much as Naser tossed her. I glance back to Lucy again, taking a sip of my coffee as I do.>She's watching in horror through her fingers as Amber gets sent again up, a bit higher this time I note. I pull Lucy into a hug to assure her but it does little to break her terrified gaze.>We watch as Naser and Amber get into a bit of a rhythm, Amber getting slightly better each time and timing when she's flapping her wings.>"Alright, big one this time. As hard as you can.">"Okay uncle Naser." she says, a determined look in her face. Lucy turns away, unable to bear watching anymore. She buries her face into my chest.one more.
