The Great Flock

Gracie.
got my mindset on you,
There's nothing you can do,
to change my mind about it,
Inside out you're beautiful,
There's nothing you can do,
To change my mind about you

Swopping down, Gracie gentley scooped Ariel into her arms, allowing Miles to be able to re-gain flight. She cradled the small girl to her chest, and continued to flap her wings. "Gave me a heart attack, to." She said teasingly.

"Thanks," he said, and with a powerful sweep of his wings, he catapulted himself twelve feet into the sky. "Close one." He smiled ruefully, his eyes dancing.

Gracie nodded slowly. "Way to close for comfort," she murmered, more to herself than to her friends. Glancing over at Miles, she just barely caught a glimpse of the rueful smile that danced across his lips.

"Yes," said Miles, flying high above the forest. The beat of his wings were steady strokes, a slow thrusting rhythm. "You don't remember?"

Gracie nodded and looked down at Ariel, who she was still cradling like a baby. "You screamed, then just kind of.. dropped." Her eyes were wide with concern as she focused her gaze back on the sky in front of her.

Gracie opened her arms so that Ariel could gain flight without her arms consrticting her. She beat her wings a bit faster, a bit harder, until she was higher up, flying a few feet from Miles.

The child accepted the thick garment without a word, and wrapped it around himself clumsily, rather like a shawl. It draped over his shoulders and fell down over his back and wings, reaching to his knees; he might have expressed gratefulness in his eyes, but they were black and immobile.

OOC: I LEARNED HOW TO SWING DANCE!!!! It's like the coolest thing ever!!! I was at a high school dance and me and Tony were watching these guys do these amazing swing dancing moves and we tried them and failed epically and so a couple of guys came over and taught us and the guy was dancing with me and I didn't even have to do anything he like just flipped me around and spun me and stuff and it was SO COOL!!! Sorry.

IC:
Jynx-

Jynx put her arm around the boy involuntarily, rubbing his shoulder rather roughly to warm him up. She didn't mean to be rough, it just wasn't in her nature to be terribly gentle. She looked through the white blanket of snow. "Walking would be best, I think. No one can fly in this."

Rogue-

A flash of white shot between the forms of Gracie and Miles. A whoop of joy sounded as the shape disappeared again, and Rogue popped up in front of the other three, trying to hover. "This... is living."

Gracie.
i got my mind set on you,
there's nothing you can do,
to change my mind about it,
inside out, you're beautiful.
there's nothing you can do,
to change my mind about you

Gracie's hair blew out in front of her as the figure of Rogue shot past her. She giggled again, her lips slowly curving upward. She couldn't remember the last time she had smiled. Maybe it was because she never had anything to smile about?

"Tell me about it!" She exclaimed, in response to Rogue's comment.

Ann nodded. "Let's head back then," she murmured softly, beginning to head towards the park's front. "I know exactly where to go from there."

(OOC: Is it? I've been posting nearly daily, or at least, there seem to be daily posts from SOMEONE or other.)

((it seems pretty acitve to me... I consider going inactive is when no one posts for several days, and this has a few good posts every day...))

The air current shifted slightly, and lifted the Escaped Experiments higher into the air.

((Try not to do OOC Only posts... Adding some IC stuff will definately help keep the thread active. :) ))

Gracie's eyes scanned the ground below them, and she suddenly smelt something.. Amazing. "Hey, guys!" She said, pointing down. "I think there's some kind of place to get food down there!" As if on que, Gracie's stomach grumbled quietly.

The shivering child was far too exhausted to recoil from the touch; lethargy had overcome him now, and needs for shelter and warmth were ever growing stronger. Following more basic instincts than those which had been bred into him, he leaned against the girl, his eyes still staring ahead - for he could not close them - but sightless.

Feeling the small tap on her shoulder, she also felt that person'a emotions. The person felt happy, and free. Wait... Person? Whipping around, Gracie flapped her wings gently, hovering in one spot. She stared at the girl, who had dark blue wings. "Um, hello." She said, her tone betraying her confusion.
