Nathan chuckled again and dropped onto his back once again. "Those stars, eh? It's crazy to imagine how far away they are, and yet we can still see them," he said. Then, pointing at a cloud not too far away, "Those are a lot easier to get to though. I'd offer to take you up, but it's pretty cold and I'm not so sure you're dressed for it."

Rosemary smiled, "I don't get cold easily at night..... I can easily use my reserves of Solar energy to warm myself up if I do." She smiled, "The stars we see are the closest but there are millions of others out there and we can only seem them because they are so bright and hot."
The only thing that made her nervous about flying with him was the fact that she'd be pretty close to him.

With a smile, Nathan held out his hand to Rose. "Feel like it, then? The air's fine."
One of the narrators is surprised at his inability to think of any further description. Time for a nap.

Rosemary smiled as she lightly grasped his hand and slowly stood up. Her nightie began to billow a bit more freely in the wind as she waited for Nathan.
It was still quite clear by her body language (and the fact that she was blushing so much that even her freckles were showing) that she was nervous, seen as she wasn't used to flying, or being around guys outside her family for that matter.

"Just make sure you wait until we're really high before you try letting go. Makes it easier to catch you."
Nathan stood up with Rose, letting his wings unfurl through the slits in his shirt. He tried not to hesitate for too long before launching off the roof as slowly as he could while still moving fast enough to remain airborne. He switched his grip to Rose's wrist to make it easier to hold her up.

Rosemary chuckled when Nathan commented about letting go. "Trust me... I'm not going to be letting go!"
As they slowly became airborne, Rose slightly became agitated but pushed her fear down. She switched her hand angle so that she could grasp Nathan's wrist to hold on as she smiled, allowing some of her glow to expand around her.

After getting sufficiently high off the roof, Nathan gave his wings a good flap, picking up the speed and getting roughly two hundred feet off the ground.
He slowed down and hovered to take a look around. "I never get tired of this... Mentally, of course. Physically, I gotta go down eventually."
Slapping himself in the forehead, Nathan laughed for probably the hundredth time in that night. "But hey. Who cares about that right? I mean, this doesn't cost us anything. Our powers are free. They're just awesome like that."

Rosemary laughed as she felt the wind blow through her hair, "This....This is amazing.... This must be what Mum often gets to do!" She chuckled.
Rosemary nodded, "They sure are, too bad I can't really show mine up here... Other than glowing..." She slapped herself at how that could be taken the wrong way as she blushed again.

Nathan used his free hand to push some hair out of his eye. "Mum? Is your mom a super too?"
Briefly, his eyes rippled as he looked around for warm updrafts that might have been left over from the warmth of the day.

Rosemary nodded, "My Mother has power over Wind, my Father over Fire. It's really my mother's side of the family that's normal."
Rose smiled completely free of her usual worries, "I wonder if I can use some of my Solar energy to warm up the air...." She pondered aloud.

"Go ahead, if you want. I don't think I can feel it either way."
Nathan smiled, scratching his head. "You know, I could have sworn that I would never consider people with powers normal. Not where I grew up anyway. Neither of my parents, friends... or anyone I knew had powers. And now, I'm pretty much stuck with people like us."
Thinking that his last statement was much wittier than it really was, Nathan had some trouble holding in a laugh.

Rosemary smiled as she focused her energy allowing some of her remaining Solar energy to flow around them to warm the air. It was a marvellous sensation.
She then smiled at his comment, " My mum was born of.. 'Normal' parents whereas my father and his family have almost always had powers.... My four best friends also had powers so I grew up quite used to 'normal' folk and those with powers."
She then couldn't help but laugh as she felt the wind ripple through her hair.

Nathan shook his head briefly. "Well hey. That's a bit dramatic for me now. I shouldn't have brought it up."
Then, with a laugh, he flexed the arm he was holding Rose with. "Not to mention," he said as he lifted (nearly tossed) her up a few feet, "That kind of talk can ruin the fun of being up in the sky!"
Surging forward to make sure he didn't drop her, Nathan caught Rose again beneath her knees and shoulders in the classic "cradle" position. "Hope you don't mind too much, but it's a lot easier to go fast like this than it is when I have to worry about our hands slipping."

Rosemary smiled at the comment and was about to answer when she was lifted into the air which made her shriek slightly but she managed to spin a little bit so that she could land in Nathan's arms lightly, mind it didn't help that she was pretty light anyway.
Just enough fat and muscle to be called healthy, it was almost as if she had fairy blood in her which she knew she didn't have but she blushed whilst being in Nathan's arms which caused her glow to brighten slightly but she managed to dim it down.
She giggled slightly as she looked from her new position, "I don't mind.... Too much..." She muttered shyly with a shy smile as her freckles became even more pronounced.
