So, apparently the giggling and sniffing moment lasted a little while. Vivian later realised that they should actually start off with the activity so she could get it done with right away. "Alright, Apollo. We'll have more cutesy moments later, but we really need to go now, yeah?" The blonde said, while patting the Aethonan's head. It was good that the winged horse was rather calm, and so it made the fourth year relaxed. She really didn't want to be a victim of horse kicking at the moment.

She was now ready to ride her horse. Vivian clutched the pendant around her neck again and chanted the galdr. Y'know, for safety measures. She just wanted the Aethonan to fully trust her, so as to avoid accidents such as being thrown off the horse during class. "Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o!" With the galdr finished, her wooden pendant glowed brighter than it previously did. Hoping for the best, Vivian stroked Apollo slowly as she carefully jumped onto his back.

And she was successful. PHEW! Thanks, Ehwaz!

"C'mon, Apollo, let's go," Vivian said with a big grin on face as the Aethonan took flight. The blonde's eyes widened, a little panicked because WERE THEY REALLY FLYING? She hugged onto Apollo securely. Nope, she wasn't going to fall to her death in a class! But thankfully, her winged horse was an expert at flying -- obviously, it had wings for a reason -- and so Vivian was able to reach safe ground. "You, my dear friend, are full of surprises," she said as she jumped down to look for a nice tree and patted her horse's head. They were definitely a match made in heaven, or Ehwaz rather.

Choosing a tree now was a little hard, because Vivian had to make the decision on her own and Merlin knew just how indecisive she could be. "Think we can do this one, Apollo?" The fourth year asked, pointing at a medium-sized tree. She would've gone for a much larger one, but that would mean more effort in cutting it down and transporting it. When the Aethonan neighed at her, Vivian took it as a sign of affirmation.

Now... she'd hope someone would help her cut it. Imagine just how many Severing Charms she'd have to do just to finish this one.
