007 - [video]

The influx of individuals is... interesting, especially since some of the regular inhabitants here says they have experienced a thing like this before.

[Jetfire hums, resting one hand against his lower face as he thinks, the quiet noise of an idling engine underlaying the more vocal humming.]

Either, as some of you have suggested, this means quite a lot of worlds were destroyed... but this brings into problem the time it would need to pick all these people up, and even if one gives allowance to the fact that multiversal destruction might nee dto travel with the speed of light, which means annihilation would hit at different points...

Still does not account for those who have been elsewhere first, and say huge influxes like these are unusual and are familiar.

[Jetfire is, once again, strengthened in his suspicion of this being merely a "mercy mission" so to speak. Then he pauses. Frowning thoughtfully at the page which is recording the live feed. He's uncertain how this will be taken by Particular People, but he's promised...]

Isabella, since the weather has started clearing and would, presumably, soon be getting warmer... Inform me when you would like to to go flying? Waiting a while yet might be for the best, depending on how well you handle wind-chill.

[Flying at speed (any sort of speed) ought to affect human... or near-human bodies negatively, considering air gets cold when you get a bit up and fly.]

I promised, and if you would still like to, I will most certainly take you for a flight.

[Regardless of Starscream's reaction.]

If you're worried about the technicalities, clothes and me keeping a rather slow speed until we know what you can handle ought to work well, and I should be able to shield you with one hand and carry you in the other.

[He is, of course, not going to push the issue if she would rather not, and Jetfire shrugs slightly, palms up. He would have preferred to keep her safe inside his cockpit, but with the lack of height...]

[Before coming to the keep, meeting Sollux and getting involved in all manner of thing, the bard would have insisted that Jetfire not take her up. For she was not going to be the causation of any trouble.

Now she was debating on something that could seem so terribly selfish and yet the offer makes her heart ache. To be in the air-]

Please. I-if you don't mind? If I may? I really would like to go, if it is alright.

[She nods her head. She remembered some of the chill the higher she climbed. She'd come back teeth chattering and ears ringing from the Sister's tirade. ]

I'll dress warm.

I... I can not thank you enough for your kindness, Jetfire. Thank you.

[angleofscience]

If I truly minded, I wouldn't have offered in the first place. Despite my reduced height and, somewhat, strength, you'll weigh nothing; as such, you'll hardly be a trouble. The greatest issue will be making sure you remain as warm as possible, since you'll not be flying yourself which cuts down on the heat you're generating.

[Which would usually keep any organic flier warm, obviously. Jetfire smiles slightly at Isabella's thanks and shakes his helm.]

As I said, no problem... The sky is important - not just an extra utility - if you can fly. When would you like it to happen?

[halfbrokenwings]

[He must have been impressive indeed outside of the Keep if he is considering how large he is now reduced at all. ]

This is very true. I'll look for something warm to wear-

[which will have to be pants of some kind, since dresses and skirts were never made for flying in mind.]

As soon as you would wish it and I am able to find something appropriate to wear. If that is alright, Jetfire? I might have to adjust some clothing to go.

[angleofscience]

[Anyone in the Keep would, quite frankly, have been dwarfed by his actual size.]

That's perfectly fine. This isn't an offer constrained by time [despite the fact of the slight... unreliability of people appearing and disappearing]; I can wait until you have gathered and, if needed, altered what you need to make sure the flight is as comfortable as possible.

[halfbrokenwings]

Thank you for your understanding, Jetfire.

[This has to be annoying. I mean here she is wanting to go and she's asking him to wait of all things! ]

I would like to talk to you soon then. Barring anything happening.

[Like hearts in jars-]
