Flitch watched Taryn go up first. By what happened last time, it seemed best to stay behind and wait before going up right ahead or after Taryn. As the turkey girl stuck out her tongue at him and crossed her eyes, he made a face back pulling back his nostrals with one hand and pulling down the buttom of his lip with the other.
He let the face drop as Taryn slid down and made her landing, clapping softly. Then he ran up the ladder and down the slid. His way down was anything but graceful, halfway down the slid he somehow managed to roll over once and tip over the side, his pants caught on to something sticking out the side of the slide. Not daring to move, he just hung there his eyes rolling around, "help...?"

This time, Taryn was not worried about Flitch's safety. She erupted in a fit of giggles.
"Fllliitttcchh", she drawled while laughing. She pointed towards him while grasping her chest for air. The toddler started to make her way over to the side of the slide which he hung from, when she noticed that his pants was caught on something. That did not help the situation.
"Haha! What if pants rip?", she questioned as she looked up to him. Holding her arms out wide, she playfully offered,"Jump! I catch you!"

Flitch gave a few nervous giggles as he watched Taryn cracking up. Although the situation may appear funny to someone not being the one hanging, Flitch was the victum and felt every way a victum should.
Hearing Taryn's comment, his face turned a tinge of pink on his pale skin making him appear like the color of salmon. "Are you su...?" he watched Taryn below him but didn't even have the time to finish the question. His pants didn't ripe. The thing hanging out of the side cracked and tumbling down he went.
Flitch had landed on Taryn, this time it was for the girl to be laying in the sand. He got up and found the little screw that had fallen with him and picked it up, "I hope this isn't important..."

It would have been funny if Flitch's pants had ripped. Unfortanently, the toddler's thoughts were interrupted with other actions.
Taryn yelped as Flitch came tumbling down on her. Almost felt like de ja vu.. except for this time, she was the one feeling the heavy weight.
"You heavy..", she started to say while dusting herself off,"But I still catch you". She grinned as she said so. Even though, she hadn't really expect to catch him, or even try for that matter.
She eyed the screw, before taking it from Flitch, and tucking it into her pants pocket. "I don't know.. maybe mom know. Maybe we should leave slide alone for now..". Flitch and a slide just did not go. She had learn that small life lesson all too quickly.

Flitch eyed the slide as Taryn took the little screw, it probably wouldn't be safe going on it again. He wasn't even sure he wanted to try going on it again, or any other slide. It was amusing just for the moment but dangling by his pants hadn't been such a fun experience. "Yea, let's do something else."
Flitch glanced over the other area and spotted a few swings on the other side and ran over. He had played on these since, forever! He sat down upon one of them and started to move up and down, swinging..."Let's see who can go higher!" He loved the feel of wind in his face, one reason why he had taken up skates after Nychii.

"Oh, you're on!", Taryn piped up as she ran over to retrieve her own swing. She scooted herself up on the swing, and kicked off with her feet. It took a while to actually get some distance.
"Hmph! Stupid swing take too long", she complained while continuously kicked with her feet. In all honesty, she had only played on swings about twice by herself. And even then she only stayed for a few seconds. The task of pushing herself was too nervewrecking for her. She looked over to see Flitch's enjoyment.
"You make it look easier then it is". Silly toddler was too impatient.

"I'll race you to the moon!" Flitch shouted back at Taryn. Some say he had too large of an imagination, well only Nychii, but he didn't mind as this helped him make anything fun.
Flitch barely heard Taryn's complaints as he swung. This wasn't the first time that he had played this but it was the first time that he was competing, he had picked up some of Nychii's competive nature although he didn't mind losing when he did.
Now was so high above the ground that he was in danger of doing a whole rotation. "Come onnn..." This time he actually did do one, two, three, four and the swing came to a stop. Flitch got off staggering a bit as though he was drunk giving a sheepish grin. He stumbled behind Taryn and shook his head violently to get it straight again. "Do you want me to help?"

Taryn watched Flitch pump the swing higher.. and higher. Untill, he actually did a rotation?
"Whoaa.. that cool!", Taryn said as she watched him hop off of the swing. It even looked a bit scary, but of course, she wouldn't admit so.
"Help?", Taryn repeated. Normally, she liked to try things on her own. Call that arrogant being in her. But this time, she was actually open to it. Flitch obviously knew how to swing.
"Sure! Push me high!", she squealed while tugging the ropes of swing eagerly.

Flitch gave his dizzy head another shake as he gave Taryn a little push to begin with, then pushed harder and harder, of course not enough to push the girl entirely off the swings. He moved further and further back until Taryn was about mid-way and he stopped pushing and moved back to the front plopping down upon the sand.
He gaze up, covering his eyes with one hand as the sun shone into his eyes. "How's the view up there?" Flitch asked, he normally didn't pay attention to the view, the wind was all he cared about. A fish liking air, it was a strange thought even to Flitch himself.

Taryn felt.. wonderful! She liked being up so high! She truly felt like a bird. Too bad, she didn't have any wings. She wondered how it felt to fly.
"View is cool!", Taryn replied as she gave a quick glance down towards Flitch.
By now, she was able to keep herself swinging on her own. "I should come swing more".
(( I have to go like in.. 15-20 minutes. So we can have a few more posts before I have to poof. x_x ))

((sure np ^^))
Flitch gave Taryn one of those okay signs, and made his way to the swing that he had been on. "I'm coming up!" He pushed off and slowly made his way back up to the point where Taryn was and felt the breeze and opened his eyes. The view was strangely dizzy at first which made his stomach churm a bit, but he was use to it after a while. Guess he had a minor phobia of heights afterall.
Flitch stared at Taryn in front of him, their swing times were a bit different, when she was in front, he was in the back and vice versa. He pushed a bit on the side and moved sideways, this time he crossed Taryn just as she began to swing back running dangerously close, "Weheee....!"

Taryn kicked her feet out in the air happily. She looked over to Flitch, and cringed a bit as he came close. Too close for her. She considered opening her arms out when she soared up near the sky, but quickly shoke the thought away. What if she fell. Ehh, nevermind.
"I want fly like birds", Taryn said with a giggle. That's when a thought occured to her.. mostly, a person. Kilah. Could Kilah fly now? She had wings afterall. "You know Kilah?", she asked Flitch while looking over to him curiously. It was wierd how she never bothered to ask him before.

Flitch raised an eyebrow at the comment, fly? Wasn't Taryn a bird? Then he rethought about it, well Taryn didn't have wings, or ones that he could see. Was she really a bird? But then was he really a fish? He didn't have gills. The questions were pushed to the back of his head when he remembered Lore. I better not try and confuse myself again, he thought as he reached up higher.
With Taryn's question, Flich rubbed his ear wondering if he heard right, no she definitly said Kilah. He cringed just a little bit but then sat back up straight as though nothing had happened, "yea...I know her. It's a wonder if someone didn't." He gave one of those nervous laughs.

"Oh I never know that.. I not even think Kilah know other Sin'aies", she said after a moment. The Sin'aeis children definently needed to get together some time.
"Kilah my cousin. Know her since baby", she added with a pleasant smile. She started to say more when Dia suddenly appeared in the doorway. The toddler let the swing slowly come to a stop.
Dia frowned a bit, and made her way over. It was getting dark, and she was worried that Flitch was still over alone. "Uh, Flitch. It's getting late. Is Nychii coming for you?", she asked while crossing her arms across her chest.

"Really...you two are totally different," Flitch said surprised. They were more than just different. It's strange to think of them as even faintly related for some odd reason.
As Dia arrived and asked a bit crossed looking, Flitch stared up at the sky. The sun was setting, strange how time goes by so quickly. Instead of letting the swing come to a complete stop, Flitch jumped off about a quarter of the way down.
"You're right, Nychii'd probably be worried if I don't get home soon, she should be done...eh...'studying' by now," Flitch quickly ran over and thanked Dia then waved to Taryn. "I'll teach you to read next time!" Then took off out the house and down the streets.
