Maybe she'd owl her mom and get her to clarify how much the "No flying" detail was. Surely she'd be okay with this, but she wasn't sure.
Harriet just smiled up at Paige. She wasn't sure if the girl knew exactly what had happened, but she seemed to understand and that meant a lot. It was nice to not have to explain why she couldn't fly. "I'd really like to pet one" Because they were pretty. And she wanted to do one.
And yay! Here one was. "It's so pretty..." Hattie murmured, as she gently petted the winged horse. It was so big and pretty, and Hattie loved it. She watched as Paige got down on one knee to help Genny on. "Are you gonna fly too Paige?" Quote:

She just offered the young Hufflepuff a small smile. "You can watch me, I know how to ride a horse. Our relatives have winged horses in a stable and sometimes mom takes us riding." Not as regularly as one would hope but enough that Genny understood how to fly one. Never was she allowed to ride alone though, just like here. Except here she didn't have her mother hovering over her and shooting orders, so she could be creative.
Once Paige knelt down, the Gryffindor grinned and said a quick thank you before hopping up using the older girl's thigh as a momentum platform, and pulling herself up on the horse's back. Well, she was hanging on the horse's back for a moment before she grabbed onto the saddle well and hauled her legs up with her Beater-strong arms. The horse seemingly felt everything and so it started moving and kicked his rear hooves in the ground, Genny's brow furrowed in concentration as she held on for dear life and started shifting herself on the saddle for a good position. The horse kept moving unsettled by this riding business, Genny looked at Paige as she held onto the reins and sat up straight trying to find that balanced sitting position.
Still lightly running her hand along the creature's flank, Paige found her once again wishing that emphasis had been placed on the care aspect of the subject's title. Grooming these creature's massive wings was surely an intricate process, right? Intricate and something that kept everyone grounded. Just seeing people flying about was giving her a bit of anxiety...and why she had yet to actually attend one of Cassius quidditch matches. Although the chance to do so now felt like it had entirely slipped away from her...
"Hmmmmmm?" she squeaked, looking over at Hattie. "Oh...I...um..." she muttered, the weight of Genny's foot on her thigh silencing her for a moment. "I'm not terrible keen on..heights..." Unlke Genny who looked as though she could be shot out of a rocket and hurtled across the quidditch pitch all the while wearing a giddy smile on her face. But that was Gryffindors for you.
..........and now she was looking at the seventh year. Oh hopping holly...
"You look good up there, Genny," she said, giving two thumbs up before being nudged in the arm firmly by the aethonan who was now seeking the carrot in her pocket - which she then gave to him, of course.
