"Your wings are astral projections when summoned. Usually when you're in henshin and then become flesh. But we're not going to pole dance on the rooftop just to get your wings. Basically, it is energy channeling which, of course, requires its focus for beginners. Now watch."
Taking a couple of steps to the edge of the roof with his back towards the open area he summons his wings and then hops off the roof.
"See? Nothing to it. It's not really hard, the thing is getting used to wings. They're like a steering wheel."
Going back on the rooftop, he points to Obi. "Okay, you're first to be Doll and your sister's example. Just walk up to the edge and I'll grab on to you."
Shades gently floats off the edge once more while grabbing Obi's arms. "Just focus on your wings and we'll slowly get off the roof, okay?"

With nothing better to do, as the captain can forego physical labor, Tricorn followed the tiny group. He was about to go aloft and give Shady a proper show, but ol' Thom Shanks grabbed hold and ferried him to the roof. Again, captains can forego physical labor. Also, birds are temperamental beings, as the large vulture drops the seadog like a rock. Landing on the edge with a thud, Tricorn laughs the attempted manslaughter off. "A shame your graduating this year, Lad. Your College was in the market for another History teacher, which is a role I can fulfill." He snaps his collars back in a sly fashion.

"More like thank the Lord for this year being my graduating year." He was joking of course, it would of been interesting having an actual pirate for a history teacher and one that could teach something about accurately portrayed pirates!
"Well it depends what college grade level you were teaching too so I doubt they would have stuck you in with the graduating classes. You'll probably have to deal with my friends that are gonna be staying behind since they're underclassmen."
They weren't a rowdy bunch or anything, they were pretty chill but boy both would still need a lot of luck because college.

"M-me?" He said, pointing to himself a bit in disbelief. I mean, it looked easy the way Shades was doing it, but he never knew he'd be going up first.
"I..I guess," he said to himself as he was cheered on by a still slightly tired sibling.
"Y-you got 'em bro! Just....Just don't fall!" Great encouragement, Sleeves. Grade A pseudo-parenting.
Holding on to Shady's arms, Obi took in a few breaths before closing eyes, focusing on channeling enough energy. It reminded him of his days back up in heaven. He and Sleeves would train with dad on some days or meditate even. It was days like that he missed, just seeing his mom and dad in general. He should write to them more often.
After a few minutes, the angel began to feel a glowing sensation as he opened his eyes, two light blue holographic wings appearing from on the side of his back.
"Am-am I doing it? is this right?" Obi asked his mentor, poking slightly at the apparitions, flickering a bit like a faulty neon light sign. Focus, young Padawan. Focus.

"They're pretty. I know. But stop poking them, it's like poking your real wings with holes." And that was nasty. You don't want holes in your feathers man.
"Anyways, yeah you're doing great so far but now. On the count of three I'm going to let go alright?"
"1...2...3!" And he let go of Obi, but his hands stayed close, should Obi fall to the ground.

Obi got a bit nervous hearing that he'd be letting go now. Each number just made him even more anxious as he prepared himself for the drop. But he had to prevail, he didn't wanna look like some sort of weenie! And the only thing being worse than a weenie, was a wingless weenie.
After the third number, Obi sank, but only a bit. Clutching his arms to his chest, he slowly opened eyes and looked down, feet still floating above nothing.
"I'm.... I'm doing it," Obi said, chuckling in disbelief. "I'm actually flying! WOO-HOO!"
A still drowsy Sleeves clapped as she watched her brother float in the air. "That's...That's my bro!" she exclaimed, yawning as she laid her head against Doll's leg, making the angel her new pillow.
No. Sleeves. STAHP.
"So, what next?" He asked Shades, still floating in the air as he wiggled his legs a bit, still surprised that he was airborne.

Shades sighed with relief. Oh good, they weren't gonna have to send someone to the hospital today. That was the last thing anybody needed. That and roofs+ceilings with holes in them.
He was glad that the guy could levitate at this altitude but there was no way Shades was gonna let his hands stray to far.
"For now you need to know how to steer yourself before able to go at a high velocity. So, Mr. Pirate over there." Pointing to Tricorn, Shades then points to the middle of the Abbey grounds. "You go on and float over there. Meanwhile, you." Now pointing at Obi, " Are gonna go ahead and fly over to pirate dude. I'll be right behind ya should you fall."
You're working with professionals kid, nothing to worry about.

Tricorn doffed his namesake as Thom took to the skies himself, circling overhead like the vulture he is. Surely he wouldn't chase someone, would he? The smirk that never leaves the captain's face seems to hide the answer, but he's not giving it up!

Seeing Tricorn take to the air as well as his vulture, Obi listened to Shades instructions carefully and looked at the airborne Tricorn and then back at Shades, trusting his words as he began his flight.
It started off slow at first, but eventually he gained up speed as he flew his way from Shade's almost grip over to Tricorn and his bird.
Sleeves had been watching her brother's first flight as she continued to cheer on for her, eventually letting out a whistle or a clap here and there.
Making it to Tricorn, Jeremy stopped his flight path and began floating in the air next to Tricorn, waiting a bit for either for his next instructions.
"Should I fly back to you?" He called towards Shady, wondering what else the sunglasses toting trainer had in store for everyone else.

And there went Obi with no falls nor any horrific accidents happening. Shades shed a single tear. Only one tear. He only had one eye of course. Nodding in approval of Obi's achievement he pointed back to the rooftop, "For now, head back there. It's Doll's turn to learn how to float at least."
Shades himself went back to the rooftop, gesturing Doll to come over. "Alright, show me the magic and let's see your wings."

Doll swallowed and stepp forwards to the edge alittlee worried, lately she's had confidence but surely not enough to fly at least she that what it seems, "o-ok….." she focused on her wings gaining a physical form and with a small sneeze helpping she sucseeded in the first step and looked forward to shades waiting for the next signal to take place.

"Frere Jacques, frere Jacques, Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?"
Crown sang as she walked up the road to the abbey, pulling a roll-along suitcase in tow, and her pet sheep, Fleece, trotting alongside her.
"Bien, that solves the issue of finding this place, now we just have to find someone to discuss the matters of lodging with..."
Then she noticed the group gathered on the rooftop, so she walked up close enough that they could hear her.
"Bonjour Messieurs, Mesdames, do any of you know where I can find someone to talk to about a room? Also, why are you all on the roof?"

He simply pointed towards Tricorn, "Go and reach him while I'll be close behind you should you fall." And once more he left the rooftop.
The new voice made Shades look down and signal to Doll to wait. Who the heck talks French in Daten City. "Why aren't /you/ on the roof?" He questioned but it wasn't time to be witty. Just exactly who was this.
Floating down, Shades crossed his arms as he approached the new face. "Before anything, what's your name. Can't give you a room without some identification and know as to how you got down here."

"10-4, Amigo," Obi responded to his trainer, zipping back towards the roof with ease as Sleeves cheered on his brother lazily.
"Wooo! Good......Good job!" She said, a small yawn taking over for a bit as she slouched off of Doll's leg and wrapped an arm around her younger brother's leg and used them as a support. "Proud of ya..." she said, before snoozing off, still clinging on to her brother's leg as GJ arrived to the roof. Was that... French he was speaking? Huh. That was new.
"You.... You can do it, girly!" Sleeves yawned/cheered on the blonde as Obi took a seat next to the edge of the roof, watching as Doll took her flight.

"Ah, pardon my manners, monsieur, my name is Crown Dolce, and I believe I'm to be staying here for some time."
She said as she gave the one-eyed angel a small curtsy
"And as for why I'm here... err, well that's not very important right now is it?"
Crown avoided the topic of her sin like an arachnophobe avoids a spider, gave a nervous laugh, and extended her hand to the trainer.
"Regardless, it's a pleasure to meet you."
