Koa

There's going to come a day when you feel better
You'll rise up free and easy on that day

Aaaand then they're teleporting.

This has got to be one of the most bizarre five minute interludes of Koa's life. Top five, minimum. Having never actually been properly teleported before (or not that I can remember anyway), Koa has no idea what to think as without blinking he finds his body in an entirely different location, and for a brief and horrifying second he's not quite sure his stomach came along.

But he doesn't vomit, Safrin be praised. Slowly his grin starts to steady, understanding cycling into his frazzled mind. Gripping the railing of the skyship, Koa peers down to where Talyson hangs, snorting derisively at his dangling friend. "Are you calling me fat?!" he demands, bemused- and then, holding up his hands defensively, "You don't have to tell me twice."

Figuring Tal's as safe as he's going to be (and confident that Boreal or Pip will let them know if that changes), Koa turns back around to where Alys is managing the wheel of the ship. "Thanks for the save back there, Miss Alys! Anything I can do to help?"

And float from branch to branch, lighter than the air
Just when that day is coming, who can say?
