feather fluff friday!

if you had wings...


Don't you wish you could fly?

Uh, well...about that. Now you can! See, for some reason, Stacy / GLaDOS / a wizard thought it would a real hoot to curse (bless?) you and now you've sprouted wings! It doesn't matter if your species would look silly with wings, you're a book, you can already fly without them, or whatever else. Too bad, you're stuck with them!

- Post the wing type you got saddled with---choose one on your own, use a RNG to choose, or leave it up to your partner! Your partner can feel free to have wings too.
- Characters who already have wings can have them modified in some way: if they can only glide, they're now capable of flight, or they can spout glitter and rainbows upon flapping. OR you can add an appendage of your choice---horn? Tail? Tentacle? Go wild.
- React, laugh, and have fun!

Wing Types:
01. Fluffy Angel Wings - The typical type you probably think of when 'wings' come to mind - you're all fluffy and downy like a Cherub - not to mention...these are very sensitive to touch...
02. Black Wings - they're beautiful, but seem a little off - and they stick out like a sore thumb!
03. Filligree Wings - very slight, very delicate and very beautiful - these are like filmy gauze attached to your skin and the most managable - if you like spider webs.
04. Fairy Wings - two sets, lucky you, you look just like a butterfly, and man are they strong - but it's hard to get them all folded up right, isn't it?
05. Devil Wings - you're like some overgrown bat - maybe you should be the one avoiding public the most for now, these might poke someone in the eye!
06. Your choice! You don't have to choose any of these, as far as your imagination goes is fine. And if there's a wing type in your canon that makes more sense, go for it!

"We can test that," Billy agreed, eagerly settling against her wings. His own wings tickled them as they drew back against his back, prompting a very delighted tickle. Excited by this, he threw himself into her kiss, warm and inviting and free.

"But you're flying first, love. Your wings appear much stronger than mine...I'm not even sure if these will carry me." A test as soon as possible was clearly in order.

[starbolts]

"Yes!" Starfire cheered him on, laughing and twisting herself upside down. This was not a problem, not at all!

Even her little black wings seemed to be cooperating, giving her a slight extra boost. She flapped the a few ties just to test, blowing the gust this way and that.

[morphitudinous]

"I think we've already established that," he called back, swinging around a branch and shooting up at a nice angle. There, ride the breeze, just as he was taught...

On that high, he spread his arms and whooped. "Do you see this? Isn't it spectacular?"

[starbolts]

Starfire could get behind that idea. She was slightly relieved, reaching out in an continuing attempt to help the other woman stabilize.

"It will be all right. Your wings will settle and calm themselves." Not that hers were entirely under conscious control, but it mostly seemed to work.

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

Was he trying to go THAT route? All right then.

She zoomed outward toward him, making a few loops and purposely rising a bit higher and plummeting down, then rising and catching Billy, giving him a noogie.

"Told you!" she giggled, then looked out at his view. "Isn't it? I love it!"

[ronnae.livejournal.com]

Him leaning into the kiss surprised her, but it was a very pleasant one, one she indulged on longer than she had intended to. Her own wings tingling at the tickling sensation.

Once they were apart, she smiled up at him. "Sounds good! I'm actually eager to try them out!"

[expendable-mind.livejournal.com]

Splicer followed close behind, dipping behind her and doing a playful roll till he was under and facing her.

"Well hello there, how's the skies treatin' ya?" He asked teasingly.

[morphitudinous]

"Hey!" Billy squirmed in her arms, his hair now a rather ridiculous-looking mess. Strands of it stood straight up.

He looked out at the places below them, where they walked, a world that almost seemed far away now. It was thrilling, really, to be out here like this---even with a smug Bond-sister having ensnared him.

"Absolutely. There will be some tough adjustments, but I could do this again and again," he answered, his wings fluttering to help keep them up.

[morphitudinous]

"Then let's go," Billy smiled, squeezing her hands. "Are you ready? It's too risky to try a roof first, but a grassy field might help. I'd just prefer a place that isn't too crowded," he confessed, suddenly looking self-conscious. Walking around with all that attention drawn to him would not be fun.

[starbolts]

"Wonderfully. Even my wings appear to be pleased," she smiled right back, flipping around and spreading them to their full span. They really weren't so bad once she adjusted.

"Are you feeling well? Not tired at all?" New muscles could be a lot of work, she knew.

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

"I told you I'd get you, you've no one to blame but yourself!" Kaya teased, grinning. "Anyway, I never get the chance to play with your hair usually. I like it!"

She nodded, releasing him. "It is pretty, isn't it? I know the wings won't last, but I love the idea of just floating carefree awhile. It's nice."

[morphitudinous]

"Do you think we'll lose them at any moment?" he worried, drifting just a bit closer to the ground. "I don't want to risk it."

The pancake-flattening fall didn't sound very enjoyable. He turned on his side, eyes finding Kaya's once more. "Messy hair is in style?" Billy was left asking, soon freed and gliding at the easy pace they set. It was relaxing like this, so warm, so open.

"...actually, Kaya, about that. If you promise not to tell anyone else, I'll tell you something."

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

"I'll make sure we're safe," Kaya said. Sure, they would be more wet at the end of it, but better than being flattened to a pancake, right?

She giggled. "Hair is kind of a fascination of mine, especially all the different colors. I just like yours."

Kaya glided with him, relaxing. "Of course I won't, you know that. What is it?"

[morphitudinous]

Billy was relieved to hear that. "Your powers are so versatile, thank goodness," he voiced. Oh, there were ties when he envied that.

As for the secret? He floated up closer, speaking in a strange half-whisper. "I...well, Ronnae also could've said this, but...I don't actually mind my hair being played with or brushed. It's relaxing."

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

"Really Billy, I'm the master of water, more or less. I'm pretty sure I can stop us from dying at least!"

HERE, anyway.

She giggled gently. "In that case, does that mean I should stop, and save it for Ronnae?"

Well she doesn't care and plays with your hair anyway.

[morphitudinous]

"I know, I trust you," he said simply, reaching up to squeeze her had. "I'm really lucky to count you as a friend."

He flushed, shaking his head. "What we do isn't always relaxing, Kaya---but when it is, it's all right. She doesn't touch it too often anyway, and there's certainly no way I can stop you."

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

She smiled. "Yes, you can. I know that anytime, I can go to you two, and it'll make me feel normal again. I can't tell you how much that means to me."

Kaya flushed back. "I was just teasing, sorry. I didn't mean to, um, press any buttons. Sorry!"

[morphitudinous]

"It means a lot to us too," was Billy's answer, accompanied by a squeeze of her hand. "You've done so much for us---for me, all seemingly effortless. I just want to give back, after everything we've been through together," he said seriously. So much of their bondship had been complicated.

He waved that off with a smile. "Don't worry, I'm the one who brought it up. It's really not a big deal. See?"

And that was when he messed with his own hair, making it a fair bit messier than before. It then appeared to stick out on all ends.

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

"There's effort in everything anyone does," Kaya said, "and it won't be possible unless that person inspires that in them. And you and Ronnae give me more than enough reason, ok? Never forget that."

She laughed, gently messing with it herself. "I missed us doing this, Billy. I'm glad we're such good friends. Let's make sure we keep that going, ok?"

Kaya lowered her eyes. "I sort of have a secret too."

[morphitudinous]

Billy was certain they would never forget. "Of course we won't. We love you," he reaffirmed seriously, drawing close to her.

"What is it, Kaya?"

[expendable-mind.livejournal.com]

Luckily, his were made of pure psionic energy, so the strain was mainly on his mind, something he's been used to for years.

"Naw, all good. This is actually really fun. Race ya to the clock tower?" He grinned, and knowing she was a pro at this, he bolted in the direction of the clock tower, spinning mid-flight to look back at her, wink and blow her a kiss before continuing.

[ronnae.livejournal.com]

"The city's empty enough! And don't worry about height, I've been tossed off towers before. It's all in the landing." She winked and smiled, grabbing his hand with both of her smaller ones and pulling him playfully.

Granted, her 'landing' was actually a trained technique she knew, but she just forgets that their worlds are different.

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

She nodded. "I know. I'm glad too: it helps to remember there are always people I can depend on when things get pretty bad. You know you guys can do the same, right?"

She smiled, looking guilty. "I like hanging with Nokosi. A lot. It would usually be a small thing but he's really been a shining force for me. But I feel like I betray Matt for thinking that at all. I feel like I shouldn't like anyone, not like that."

[starbolts]

"Yes!" Starfire yelled, zooming right off toward the tower. weaving to the side in an attempt to get her wings to cooperate. The flutters did nothing but slow her down, but if she kept them out at an angle...there, that was all right.

She charged, large smile still on her face.

[morphitudinous]

Billy knew this was a serious matter indeed. He was all for anything to get Nokosi under control (just a little) and that made the two of them happy, but after everything Kaya had bee through it definitely presented a problem. He reached up to gently guide her down to a tree, perfect for a good round of sitting.

"How many times have you told me that it's impossible to control who you like in reference to my resistance to dating Ronnie, Kaya? Thoughts aren't wrong, it just means you might want to think some more and sort them out."

He closed his eyes in thought. "Only you can decide what you're comfortable with, but take your time. You're developing these feelings solely as yourself now, there's no more identity confusion with Katara. Does that change things at all?"

Not that he would advise her to betray Matt if that was what she felt like it would be, but there were things to work through.
