Is he going to stop in time? was her final thought before he came to a record scratch of a stop and landed in front of her. It took her a moment to realize he was asking her a question when every part of her brain was trying to piece together how he had fallen so gracefully. She would have careened straight into him had she been the one falling.

”have you ever ... fallen down a flight of stairs holding a drink and managed not to spill a lick of it? Because I’m pretty sure you have a talent or falling well and coming out of it rather unscathed” she was honestly quite impressed by this talent. Not that she would test it out by seeing its limits. That was something a good friend would not do. What was hard – she paused as she tried to remember what she had been thinking about. ”Oh! hard ... well, the ground – are you okay? But really really I’m contemplating a new pet? I kind of want to see if I can bring a Raven to school or just befriend one at school and make a friend for life that way” if she went the making a friend of life route she wondered if that friendship would follow her family forever.

It hurt!! It really hurt!

Will's bottom parts were hurting like dragon fire, and here Dot thought he had come out of it unscathed? Will prided himself on having a good poker face as he clambered up on his feet with some difficulty to sit down on the park bench next to Dot. With a thoughtful smile pursing his lips he contemplated her question. "I'm a talented young man true, but no I have never fallen down a flight of stairs with a drink in my hand, and managed to come out of it unscatched. When I've fallen down stairs in the past after being chased by one of my many siblings then I usually end up with a bruised head or banged arm." Wasn't that the truth? He had enough memories, and a few scars too to prove it. "Plus, landing hard on my bottom does hurt." He just had to point that out to Dot.

"You want a pet raven?" Will asked with a raised brow. "Why not a rat or a pygmy puff or owl?" They seemed like more reasonable pets. He knew what it said on the list about pets, and raven's weren't included on the allowed list. "I want to get a pet too, but I want something that isn't so popular you know like a cat that everyone else seems to have. I want something different, special."
