He laughed at her sudden burst of excitement, the smile broad on his face as he nodded. "Yeah, diving and swooping around and stuff. It's not that hard once you get used to it, just like furling your wings." Blackfell didn't mind showing a little flying for the girl, so he stood up while brushing off his pants.
"If you'd like, I could take you flying with me. Just carry you so you can watch from the air too. I mean, if your guardian doesn't mind or anything." He asked, looking around for the first time for any sort of a parental figure.

Tule gasped, her eyes growing wide with excitement. He'd take her flying?! She'd never been able to get a few inches off the ground before. What would it be like way up high?
Guardian? Oh right, where was Van? She'd left the young artist sketching by a lake. Chewing thoughtfully on a finger, she looked around in a wide circle, finally spotting the lake.
"He's over there. His name is Van. He draws reaaaaally pretty pictures. Though he's not really my guardian. His name is Artie. He has to work today."
She rattled off the information quickly as she scoured the area for Van. The lake and the tree were there, but where was the boy with the copper hair?
"TULE?! TULE!!!!" she heard suddenly. Van appeared over a nearby hill, breathing heavily and eyes frantic. Tule smiled and waved her chubby arm.
With a sigh of relief, Van trotted down the hill, artbook tucked under his arm. "Oh man, Tule! Where'd you wander off to? I was so worried when I looked up and you weren't there!! Art would have my head!"
The freckled teen suddenly noticed Blackfell. "Uh, hello," he said, somewhat suspicious. Who was this kid?
Tule took care of that. "Van!! This is Blackfell. Isn't that a pretty name? He's got wings like me! Only his are dark and pink and bigger than mine. He taught me how to tuck my wings! And and he says he'll take me flying with him. To see the big loops and dives and stuff. Can I, Van? Can I?!"
Van was surprsed. Tule usually wasn't this animated. If anything, she took after Artie almost completely. He'd never met two more mellow people. He blinked at her words and looked back up at the other teen. "Hi, er Blackfell was it? I'm Van."
He awkwardly extended a hand to shake.
