Seventh Feather [Video]

[Rakka's on the feed once more, this time in what looked to be a bedroom, sitting on a large bed. It's not the same bedroom as the other times, so it's probably safe to say that Rakka found a place to hide out for a while.

She's got a rather bad looking level of bedhead, random strands sticking up towards her halo. A number of downy, grey feathers are scattered around the bedspread which are obviously from her wings. Despite the mess, she's actually looking better than previously. At the least, she looks well rested.]

So... hey. Checking in, I guess. I'm okay if anyone was wondering, my wings are still sore and stuff, but they're not bleeding or anything.

[She brushes some hair from her face.] The feathers are kind of a problem though. I got some new memories though, like I think this is how I got my wings before, and this weird pillar of light...

[More rambling, nothing important, until Rakka suddenly rememebrs something. Leaving the screen for a moment, Rakka returns with a ring of keys in her hand.]

I found these a little before I called for help. Has anyone lost some keys? There's a lot of them on here-[As she runs a finger over the keys, there seems to be a tiny change in her. Her eyes widen a little, and it doesn't look like she's looking at anything in particular when she suddenly blurts out,]

I've never been on a date before!

[It's quick, and as soon as it's said things seem to return to normal. Rakka stutters for a moment, staring uncomprehendingly at the screen.]

...I-I... what the... Why did I-[Her fingers brush against the keys once more and she goes off again.]

I want my parents to actually care about me!

[Two hands are slammed over Rakka's mouth as she finishes that statement and the keys are dropped and forgotten. She stares at the screen in shock and horror for a moment before quickly moving forward and killing the feed.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yup. [How fresh of a start it was depends on any given day it seems. Things kept resurfacing in Rakka's life that she couldn't control.]

[Like right now for instance. She couldn't say she didn't expect Raye to turn the tables on her like this. It was only fair. ~~But yeah, who are you to give her relationship advice?~~] Well no, not really. I was kind of busy with other things.

[Like growing wings and stuff.]

I guess... maybe I'll look for someone eventually.

[Yep. That's the way these conversations go after all. ~~Nobody. She's nobody to give relationship advice.~~]

Yeah, no rush, huh? I don't think you're gonna have any trouble with that.

[She snickers a bit, grinning a little sheepishly on her side.]

I bet you're not gonna go around scaring everyone off anyway.

You think so? I've never really thought much about being in a relationship or...

[She pauses as Raye begins to snicker. Truthfully, she was smiling a little, but as always there was doubt.]

Yeah? I guess people would want to date an angel.

Yeah, sure. Why not, right?

[She shrugs a little bit, even if Rakka can't see, grinning to herself.]

I mean, an angel'd probably have a lot more luck there than the loud girl who keeps getting into fights.

[Not that she put a whole lot of thought into that herself. No time for dating when you were so busy being caretaker to a little sibling.]

Oh....

[Well, that puts a dampen on things.]

Hey, you'll find someone. Heroes always get love interests and stuff.

[Just like in the animes.]

[Aw, crap, she wasn't trying to do that.]

It's cool. I'm not really into that whole dating thing anyway.

[Hey, wait what?]

Heh. Pretty sure if anybody around here is a love interest getting hero it isn't me. Save that junk for the magical girls.

[She doesn't watch anime. She is completely ignorant of shounen hero tropes. ~~Forget about how many she's probably pinging.~~]

[Resisting urge to say that she's technically a magical girl...]

Well, if you say so. It'd probably be easy for you though.

[She kind of exudes shouhen hero tropes.]

[Sixth Ranger. If she is any trope, she is the Sixth Ranger. Because that one is always the coolest.]

Pretty sure it doesn't work like that anyway. I don't think there's, like, an ass-kicking level where you get your love interest or anything.

[But that means she has to wear green!]

I guess not. But I dont really have any powers yet, so I can't know.

[Lots of Sixth Rangers didn't wear green! ~~And she's already outside of the whole Precure color scheme.~~]

You've got that lightning staff. That's gotta count for something.

Yeah, but it was a gift, not an echo or anything. I need some actual angel powers. I can't even fly yet.

[It's really kind of annoying.]

[She tilts her head a bit, thoughtfully.]

Can you fly with those wings anyway? Aren't they kinda... small for that?

...I'm not sure. I mean, I haven't really... tried...

[She's been through a lot recently.]

What muscles are you even supposed to move?

I dunno. Wing muscles?

[She has no idea.]

... If you're gonna try, maybe you should start somewhere low.

I'll have to look it up I guess.

[Sigh, being an angel was going to take some getting used to.]

That's... probably a really good idea.

Dunno where you're gonna look that up.

[Damn, it was starting to sound rougher by the second.]

Gimme a call if you do. I wanna see this if you can fly... and I'll keep you from getting busted up too bad.

Wikipedia or something? Who knows.

Oh, thanks I guess. I should probably have someone on standby before I try anything stupid, shouldn't I?

[Stand by, typing away here.]

... Nope. All I got on Google was a bunch of shitty-ass music videos. Looks like we gotta figure this one out on our own.

Great. Nothing could go wrong.

[Two teenagers trying to learn how to fly. Everything could go wrong.]

I guess I could ask around with the other people that can fly. They might know something

Yeah, see? It'll be easy.

[When she says it like that, it almost sounds true?]

We can start small and stuff. There's gotta be a place where you can jump off something small.

That's probably a good idea.

[There's only so many times one can fall and land safely.]

So, like, a trampoline first or something? Then a ladder?

Hmm....

[Her arms fold as she sits back to put some thought into this.]

Yeah, that could work.

Oh, maybe a diving board so if you mess up you'll land in the water.

[This is a terrible idea.

There's a sudden, sharp intake of breath on Rakka's side and a pause.]

Well... maybe not, you know? Water is... kind of bad for wings.

[She catches the sharp breath, of course, blinking at it but at the same time she doesn't quite make the connection.]

It is? Huh....

I just figured that was the safest bet. Probably safer to land in a pool than on the ground, right?

[It was a very good thing now that Raye couldn't see Rakka's face, because she looked like she was in pain. She shuddered quietly, uncertainly before managing to reply.]

Y-yeah... but I'd just rather not do the pool thing, if that's okay.
