[Straw]

  [font=trebuchet ms]Straw had experienced her fair share of leaping from trees and crashing onto the ground, though in her case flight wasn't the goal. She was just a red panda, not known for their ability to fly, but very well known for their ability to climb. Racing across treetops, launching herself up mountainsides, gaining altitude as fast as she could using just her natural biology was a perfect pastime. Besides, the wind up high soothed her mind in a way few other things could.

  She could imagine that wings would probably help, but she'd never seen a four-legged creature with wings before- up until now. The appearance of a winged reptile on the mountain spiked her curiosity, though she remained cautious as she approached, ready to bolt at a moment's notice. The beast looked more tired than threatening, but literally anything could happen.

  Straw adjusted her mask with one paw upon coming within a few meters of the reptile, then asked softly, "Uh... what brings you here?"
