❝ hawawawa … ❞ clearly, the little vampire is just a tad too little to be carrying anyone that isn’t as small as her comfortably. the only thing keeping her from stumbling is the thought that it would be rude to drop hailey. better get this done quickly. a moment to collect her bearings, and in another, she’s up in the air.
❝ ‘kay! full speed ahead! ❞ as if kicking off of a wall, she blasts forward, skillfully dodging any obstacles.
however, her speed is not what it could be. although the rain that soaks into her clothes could be ignored, the downpour now hitting her face and hands was distracting enough to make her falter. still, she keeps a tight grip, not allowing herself to let up even for a second.
❝… tch.❞ she skids to a stop at the entrance of the village, heels digging into the dirt. the trip only took a few minutes, but it leaves her quite ragged. what seemed to be slight burn marks were left on her skin, although not quite as severe as if it had been the sun. breath in, breath out.
❝i think we made it.❞ barely.
The relative sizes... For a moment, Hailey had wondered if she was somehow too heavy for Flan to lift, but the relative sizes makes a lot more sense. Given how tall she is compared to the little vampire, it’s no surprise that she barely even fits in Flan’s arms...
And Flan lifts her high up into the air. The cat tries not to look down... She’s not used to being this high. In fact, the last time she looked down on scenery like this was when she fell off a cliff-
“I am... not used to see the world from this perspec-”
Flan accelerates before Hailey can finish her sentence, and the words end up shoved right back down the Hellcat’s mouth. She ends up wincing, squeezing her eyes shut as they soar and zoom across the skies. It’s a meek, vulnerable expression, one that would be embarrassing if she had time to register it.
It’s not until they’re on the ground again that the Hellcat opens her eyes, and immediately she finds herself looking at Flan’s haggard expression.
“Did we make it? Are you alright?”
A blunt way to put things, but she has no reason to hide her concern.
