And my disclaimer. I swear I own nothing, not the place, time, or setting of this writing. What I DO own are means by which generous people can help and support a young man if they should choose. Available here and here, or my profile for those curious. The first is to my P A treon, and the second is too a account.
Now let'sa go.
With a moment of hesitation, and a dry gulp, you killed the engine and retracted your wings. For that instant, you were merely flying through the air from sheer centrifugal force.
DC check: 20, 20, 25, 30, 65 :Roll (2d12) + Third-Arm Sash (1d10) + Training! (1d4)= 25, 35, 30, 34, 11. Four Passes, One Fail!
And you were felt the Third-Arm sash whoosh ahead of you with insane speed, grabbing hold of the branch you were about to hit and sending you higher than ever in the direction of the other tree's below!
With a bracing of your leg you jumped off bark in a motion of a practiced swimmer, with a pelvic thrust you straightened your flight, and with your clothy appendage you hooked onto branches too far away or brambled for your puny arms! You were doing it! Swinging through the trees like the edgiest Tarzan reboot ever! God, you'd never felt so, so...
FREE!
The laughter you burst out in was deafening to your ears, you were keeping pace through foliage like a character model in a dev area players weren't supposed to find, but this was the most fun you'd had in ages! Why didn't you think to start with this!?
Aaand then you smashed into a tree cause your eyes were closed from laughing.
'There goes Reality, up here's Gravity.' You thought somewhat dazed as you felt your body begin to peel from the bark you had impacted. You scrambled for a handhold but with your little head trauma, nothing could save you. With your back to the ground as you fell straight back, you looked blankly to the sky and wondered if you were about to die during a Magical race for a telescope.
?'s DC: 35: Roll (1d100) + 15= 50. Pass!
Only for your blank look to break completely as the Third-Arm Sash suddenly threw itself back into the tree you had just fallen off of, tassels easily piercing bark and suddenly seeming to coil around itself like it was being twirled around...
Comprehension DC: 70: Roll (5d12) + Training (1d4) + 36 (INT)= 76. Pass!
Wait. If it coiled like that, and you were hanging like this...
A wicked grin made its way to your face as you realized what the Third-Arm was planning, and decided to add your own touch to it.
With a sharp motion, you pulled your arms and legs tight to your body, and began to angle to an almost reclining position. The ground was getting closer, but you didn't care. The arc was planned in your mind, and you were ready.
With a tug you wouldn't have noticed before at your waist, you tilted your legs completely upward while retaining your straight position, moving the momentum straight back up as the Third-Arm Sash released at the height of your arc, the coiled pressure stopped by bark now making it spin like a hand shaped propeller. The crazed laughter was begging to release from your throat, but you could tell there was no stopping the determination and madness from showing in your eyes...
As you beheld yourself already half-way up the carousel with your new recovery arc. Things really were coming together. Now, all that was left to do was...
[] Blow this Joint! (Use your remaining Fuel to get the Wu, who knows how you'll escape? Surely somehow.)
[] Pelvic Thrust! (Use the Third-Arm Sash to Swing to higher and higher wheel brackets and carts. Skill Checks abound! Chance of Wu Mastery, ?)
[] Take a Minute, enjoy the sights (Stay on your car, wait till it gets closer or above the Wu where you can jump and get it. (?, Regain Stamina, Create potential Escape Plan)
[] Find the Competition? (Fair sportsmanship, ?, ?, She was REALLY cute to be considering this)

Wow, we actually did pretty well. We passed all the check we kind of needed too, and barely needed out bonuses to have our Third-Arm Sash act on its own! Very nice, but let's see if luck holds out.
