[that feels exceedingly odd, but he tenses his legs and jumps]

[garo]

[ & watch as you jump up REALLY FUCKING HIGH, JESUS FUCK ]

[cooopout]

[i do manage not to scream like a girl with a spider down her dress, to my credit

but how am i going to land]

[garo]

[ well. what goes up must come down. but if you look like you're going to crash, i'll catch you ]

[cooopout]

[ooh kouga-san oooh

no seriously just kind of clutching at you for a second holy fuck warn a guy next time okay I WAS TRYING TO BE CALM OVER HERE]

[garo]

[ could i be holding you bridal style? yes ] That wasn't bad for your first try.

[cooopout]

Thank you. [eases out of your hold to settle his feet somewhat gingerly back on the ground]

...that was different.

[garo]

Let's try it again.

[cooopout]

[laughs a little, weakly]

I guess now's a bad time to mention that I used to be terrified of heights, and of falling. [braces himself a bit better this time, looking determined] All right, go ahead.

[garo]

. . . I'll use less this time. [ repeats the process ]

[cooopout]

[breathes in carefully and really focuses on how the gathering energy feels, and when he pushes off he tries to stay upright this time]

[garo]

[ watches to make sure if he needs to catch you again ]

[cooopout]

[manages to mostly land on his feet this time before falling over, but he gets back up and brushes himself off quickly, looking thoughtful]

[garo]

Better.

[cooopout]

Thank you.

[garo]

For what?

[cooopout]

Ah--it's nice to hear when I'm doing well. ...this is all very new. [resisting the urge to rub his leg, looking thoughtful]
