[Quite frankly, the whole of this situation has Jae-Ha seething. This tree - this world - is nothing but a glorified cage. As pleasant as some of it may appear, there's no saving the fact that he's locked in, not to mention other people, as well. At the least, he seems to have caught on to that ray of sunshine, which he uses, but it's not as though it continues to erase all of the bitterness that comes with being here.

But nevertheless. —He seems more at ease, than not, when appearing.

. . . A certain White Dragon, though, just to the side of the screen, does not.]

This amber is very impressive, really. To think that conversing across distances can happen instantly was even remotely possible. . .

But ah- More importantly! My name is Jae-Ha, and I'd like to most humbly offer myself to assist anyone who would like a few lessons in flight, as I'm sure that coordination might be—

[He starts, only to be (rudely!) interrupted.] Jae-Ha! [It's clear the frantic, white haired dragon in the background is not at all happy with the situation, glaring at Jae-Ha from behind.] Your 'services' are hardly what is important right now. Get this off of me already!!

[That being Kija's gem is smack dab in the middle of his forehead, courtesy of some wonderful tree sap, therefore forcing the presence of his wings.]

Don't worry, it'll loosen up within a day. [or something]

That's too long! [He practically despairs.] I- I cannot stand to have these horrible things to be around for another second! AH-! [Nooooo] The Dragon Claw is sticky with sap now, too!

[Jae-Ha just lets out an exasperated sigh] They're a beautiful set of wings, Kija-kun. Now you can fly without any of my assistance, even. Take advantage of it. Your complaining will get you nowhere.

I REFUSE!! [Before Jae-Ha can do much of anything, then, a white scaled dragon claw reaches out and all but grabs his arm to get his full attention - and hopefully succeed in removing the stone, leading the feed to cut off short.]

[ooc: replies will come from either or both!]

[ Jae-Ha he is going to kill you or something very close to it. ]

Hold still while I glue yours to your nose.

[CUE LAUGHTER AND ICON]

Jae--Ha, get back here and face me...!

[ As though he can keep up with the Green Dragon though. ]

[As he expects!]

Just try and catch me! You have the ability to, now! ♥

[ Instead, he gets whatever stray rock, pebble, tree bark or what have you in sight flung at him within the air. ]

[Oh, Kija. Baby no. You seem to forget Jae-Ha's skills!

For example, oh so beautifully dodging any such attempts he may make.]

[ DAMN IT JUST COME BACK. ]

[ E-Experimentally beating the wings in order to- ]

[ OH GOD OH GOD HE CAN HEAR THEM. It's like the most giant insect of all time. OF ALL TIME. ]

[He actually stalls for a moment, glancing over to wherever Kija is, before swooping down closer.

Huh. . .]

What is it?

It is nothing...

I don't believe that.

I am lamenting this entire situation.

You've been doing that from the start.

I just realized it's worse than I thought.

Then don't focus on that.

I know that already. [ BUT BUGS ]

Just think of it this way, then- Yona-chan would most certainly believe in you, and that you will overcome this hurdle.

[. . .] Nothing ever comes too easily, Kija-kun. Fears, included. It takes facing them, and more than just a couple times. Use that determination of yours and make your beloved princess proud.

Of course. For the Princess I can...! [ He could do anything if it was to protect and help aid her. ]

Y-You need not worry about me in the meantime.

As if that'll stop me from keeping an eye on you.

[See? He actually does care.]

You're a mess.

I am m-merely preparing.

[ Just give him a year or ten. ]

Sure, sure.

[He believes you. Mostly.]
