He settled for a snort of sorts, with heavy breath, his head shaking from side to side. Woah...moving antlers! The reindeer stopping the shake of the head and having to settle the weird feeling that had developed.
They were definitely a bigger deal as a deer.
Benny watched as Adi tried to walk, briefly reminded of his own attempts as a canary. At least his friend was more appropriately sized for the bird-legs and the ground had a bit more give than the floor of his kitchen at home. But the eagle still wibbled and wobbled along the ground. He raised his head cautiously back up and decided to actually try moving himself. First one tentative leg and hoove forward and than another, with the rear legs countering the movement of the fore ones. It must have been a sight to see, a large reindeer and a smaller bird of prey walking awkwardly along the ground near the whomping willow like they were just born.
Seeing his raptor friend trying out his wings, Reindeer!Benny opted to give him a little push. He tentatively approached, lowering his neck and heavy head once more, using his snout to give Adi a playful nudge from behind, perhaps a little stronger that he might have intended.
Fly Eagle!Adi...FLY!
Adi was about to spread those wings when...
He smelled him even before he felt the push. INCOMING REINDEER BENNY! Adi tried to hop out of the way but too late! The combination of wobbly legs and Benny's fastness was too much. The eagle got hit in the back and was sent rolling... literally
Head over talons, head over talons, head over talons!
Eagle Adi came to a halt facing his friend, staring reproachfully although he may look incredibly fierce due to the eyes and beak. Low whistling sounds came from him which could be translated to
''Is this revenge for turning you into a dragon and a canary?'' There would have also been a hint of amusement in his voice.
The eagle picked himself off of the ground, purposely turning around to shake its tail feathers in the reindeer's direction cheekily. Hehe. Right! Time to these these wings. He turned back to Benny then pointed with his left wing to the sky.
"This feels weird,'' he thought.
"Being a bird is weird. Wonder what Benny must be feeling.'' Indeed it was weird. What with having his own mind but a bird's body...
Anyway. Did Benny get what he was saying? HE WANTED TO FLY, MAN! Adi flapped his wings. Damn! This was harder than it looked! There was hardly any proper amount of breeze to help him lift off yet he continued to flap those wings. His wing span was ENORMOUS, by the way.
FLAP, FLAP, FLAP!
FINALLLLLY!
There was an increase in the breeze and the eagle rose from the ground. Up, up, up he went!
''This is fuuuuuun!" he whistled in Golden Eagle language. But the flapping was still draining him. The effort was a lot. How did birds manage this?
