Better than flying? I don't know about all that. I mean, we basically just free fell...
[Despite his protest, Darin laughs, albeit bashfully. He brings a hand up to scratch at a rosy cheek, colored from the rush of the wind as they plummeted, of course!]
But...I'm glad all the same. Sometimes I feel like a change in perspective helps to drive the bad thoughts away. It always worked for me.
[There's more to that, of course. To Darin, his powers may be a curse, but his adopted father always told him that those blessed with tremendous power should use it for the betterment of others. Zelda was sad and distraught so he cheered her up the only way he could think to do it.]
[Sometimes he could begrudgingly admit his strength had its uses.]
[He drops to a knee in front of her and holds a hand out to her again, this time to help her stand.]
Who you were back home doesn't mean you have to be that same person here. Regardless of how we got here...I think we've all been given a pretty amazing opportunity. And hey, you're pretty easy to talk to. I'm sure you'll meet tons of people clamoring to be your friend and do all kinds of fun things with you.
Be who you want to be. Do whatever you want to do. And no one can say otherwise here.
