[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Well, the healing is awesome too, but....]

It is a good second.

[tonewlengths]

[We don't talk about that!]

I think it's very impressive, that whole... Changing thing you did.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Yes, probably for the best right now.]

It is cool, but the more important stuff is I can use my abilities like this without any delay. The other way, it makes everything harder and slower, which isn't good for protection.

But if you want, we can go outside... [Pause, looking at the hair.] Is there a way to make that more...compact? Braiding or something? I don't want your hair to get caught on branches when we go outside...

[tonewlengths]

I don't have anything to... I'll just carry it. [Gathering it all up in a bundle]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[...well, if it works.]

All right. If you can keep a hold, that'll be good.

Now, the question is, do you want to walk along the trees...or would you like to fly?

[tonewlengths]

You can fly? Like birds?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Well, not EXACTLY like birds. I don't flap anything, but otherwise, yep!

[tonewlengths]

How does that work? If you don't have wings, some kind of magic... What's it like?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

How about I show you? [Heading over to the door.]

[tonewlengths]

Okay... But, I can still walk on the trees after, right?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Sure! That'll be fine.

[tonewlengths]

Thank you!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Opening the door and holding a hand out towards her.] Then this way, my lady.

[tonewlengths]

[Oh my gosh oh my gosh I'm actually going outside, glances to Pascal for reassurance, he puffs up his chest and she takes a deep breath and grabs that hand tight]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Smiles and nods, pulling Rapunzel close and wrapping an arm around her waist securely.] I got ya.

[And then we're lifting off from the ground and into the air. And there's an odd weightlessness as the ground falls away.]

[tonewlengths]

[Oh my gosh oh]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Taking it slow.]

[...also paying VERY close attention to the noise and not moving TOO far from the building.]

[tonewlengths]

[Realistically I know I have been warned about dangers but I am just too wrapped up in what I am seeing. Look how close these trees are!!]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Soooo close.]

[Once I've scanned a tree for a while and don't see any movement, will land on a nice thick branch.]

I'd take you down, but...it's all kind of flooded down there.

[tonewlengths]

[Oh my gosh I'm on a tree I am in the outside world I. Kn-Kneels on the branch, just feeling it for a moment]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Will let her. Just keeping a look out for things.]

[tonewlengths]

[I am goinst to start crying all over again I think]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[ewhaiejwji o-oh dear.]

[...well, it have been a lot of feels.]

[Gonna sit by her and rub her back soothingly, still keeping an eye out.]

[tonewlengths]

[I will allow this]

I... I-I really wanted to do this, to... To go outside with her, I... All those trees I saw from my window, a-and the grass and the lake and... And...

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...it can't be with her, since she's not here. And it'll be a while before the chance to go back will come. [If ever, but I refuse to say IF.]

But you can still see it...and have people you care about come with you. You just need to find people to care about.
