Here we go...what will Robin and Harly do today? And what invention are Tink and Bobble working on?
The threesome flew around Pixie Hollow, saying good morning to fairies, and all the while, Terence telling them who was incomplete. The very first incomplete was Emily, an art-talent fairy. She had problems with breaking pencils, and Robin showed Harly how one would fix this, Emily having accepted their help first.
"All you do is sprinkle some dust on her hands..." he did so, holding them palm up, but the dust disappeared on contact. "…and that should do it." He finished. What knowledge Robin had by instinct Harly seemed to have to learn, Terence noticed, but didn't do more than take note of this. After another minute, Harly watched as Emily picked up a pencil, sharpened it, and started to draw. Just a few minutes and a beautiful bird started to form.
"Thanks you guys!" Emily called as they left.
They met many more incomplete fairies, some of which accepted their help, but some who refused because being incomplete was part of them. One sparrowman couldn't pronounce his t's properly, but he explained his refusal for help: "My friends wouldn't know me if I got my mouth fixed."
Both fairies understood what he meant, being so different from other fairies themselves, but continued to offer their help to others, and many agreed.
By mid-afternoon, a chain-wheel had been built by Tinker Bell and Bobble. One more hour and one more was created. It had two wheels with a chain connecting them, a stick-frame to hold the wheels apart to fit a seat just up from and between them and handle bars just above the first wheel. Small chunks of acorn were the pedals that let you turn the wheels, although you had to take your feet off of them when not pedaling to avoid getting your leg broken by the free-turning pedals.
"We'll improve the design tomorrow, and then maybe start giving them to some other fairies. Once you get the hang of balancing, it's really very fun," Tink said to Silvermist, who had dropped by to see Harly, but not finding her there started talking to Tink, standing on the ground just outside Tink's home where test runs were being conducted.
"I'll have to try it sometime," Silver said politely, although she really wasn't the fun and adventure kind of girl. All of a sudden, Bobble shot past, whooping and waving one hand in the air. "I'd better go now." There were other things she had to do, she tried to tell herself, although it wasn't exactly working.
"Good-bye, then," Tink waved after her.
