Flying is great! The greatest there is. To come so close to the sky that you might think that you can touch it. Chasing clouds and rushing above them faster than the wind.

Free.

Totally great.

Richie's arms tighten around his friend's waist, his body pressing against Virgil's back and for a second Virgil looses his concentration and the disc dips sharply before he can think about anything else but Richie being so close.

Rich's hold tightens again.

"Could you please not make such manoeuvres with me as a passenger?" comes Richie's muffled voice from next to his ear. Virgil shivers and has to concentrate very hard not to let the disc dip again.

"I wouldn't let you fall."

"I know." Richie replies with absolute conviction and presses just a bit closer. Virgil grins. Just now he feels as if he could touch the sky without his disc.
