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!

"They're not very large," she said doubtfully. She tried flexing one closer to her face, and then stopped because the three/four wingstroke made her list alarmingly. "I don't think the number of them matters."

It was magic. She just knew it. Here she'd been squinting and looking away and trying to ignore the face that she was surrounded by people who broke every law of physics just by existing, and...and...and she got magic wings. Stuck on her.

She tried slowing her beats, feeling for the air currents. She spread out her arms and legs, trying to detect the wind with her fingertips - not easy, with the miniature hurricane affixed to her back.

And taking off the plantsuit would probably get someone annoyed with her.

"I figured they would just be harder to handle," Kaya said, and flexed her own. "Two for me are hard enough, because you have to flap them just so, so you stay in balance and so you keep the rest of your body flexible so you an get higher."

She demonstrated, letting her wings do the work. In a way, the wings knew when to use the currents in the air, you just had to judge when they were about. Somehow you could sense then the air around was too heavy, that using the wings would just be too arduous in that particular place.

"Would it be easier if you kept your arms and legs down?"
