Some people crash two or three times
And then learn from their mistakes

The Dragoon grabs Alys by her shoulders, shaking her gently with enthusiastic glee. "It does, doesn't it?" Too excited to think through his actions. It's not, like, sobbing or anything, but yeah, when Koa turns back to look at Alys, she won't need her powers to see the tears in his eyes. This is a moment that's been years in the making. It doesn't matter that Alys has no context for its importance. Sorry babe, you're part of this now.
Unfortunately, it turns out that just because she can fly, doesn't mean Pipsqueak is ready for it. Koa's thrumming enthusiasm shoots electric through the bond, filling the little dragon with confusion - and then panic, as she realizes that she's actually in the air. Shrieking her terror, the long wyrm clutches Alys' kite tightly, her little wings flapping wildly as she begins to careen through the sky.
It brings Koa's attention back up to her, his own joy melting into alarm. "Pip! Pip, flap!" he exclaims, waving his arms (and the mossy rock) in frantic demonstration.

But we are the ones who don't slow down at all
And there's nobody there to catch us when we fall
