Amalia
Having large wings that hold up a human body is very different from being an owl.
Thus far, Amalia has succeeded in flight thanks to instinct and experience. She has the basics: move upward, maneuver a little, land (sometimes) without crashing- but her skill set ends about there. Her wings are large and ungainly, difficult to keep track of and easy to misplace. They catch gusts of wind she didn't realize were blowing, tear through her shirt if she wears one with a back. They're more of a hazard than a help at this point.
Luckily, she knows someone who can help.
Amalia stands at the edge of the cliff in shorts and a halter top, her back to the house. The wings she's so desperate to master are extended at her sides, feathers dancing as they catch the sea breezes, threatening to send her sprawling to the ground. It's a beautiful summer morning and the wind combats the heat, but even so the Shield can feel sweat beginning to bead upon her forehead, under her plait of hair.
Turning to Remi, she raises an eyebrow. "Okay. How do I use these things?"

she was so delicate
yet bursting with energy
kind of like a shattered star
