*This will become routine for them. But...all is not well. She won't lose her passion for learning, but she will start to become twitchy and easily irritated at little thing. She tries to not let WJ see it, but he will, it's hard to miss.*

WJ: *will finally stop their conversation one time, a hand on her shoulder* Dreamcatcher… what’s wrong? *gentle but serious tone*

Dream: *jumps, wings quivering.* I-I....I don't know. I feel.... I feel.....I feel trapped. *the look she gives him is full of apology.*

WJ: ………………… *studying her…finally* When’s the last time ya flew? Or have you /ever/? Heh…not countin’ the time ya plowed into the balcony here.

Dream: That...was the first and only time. *and she was too terrified to really appreciate what she was doing.*

WJ: *nods* You’re a flyer. A Seeker, at that. Flyers were made ta fly. That’s probably it – you’re anxious because you’ve been grounded for so long. Not just that, but stuck /inside/ in one place.

Dream: *wings flick a few times, and she'll step closer to bury her face against him, clinging*

WJ: */HUGS/ her* I’ll talk ta Dreadwing when he gets home. He’s a flyer too, gotta be, I’m sure he’ll understand. *truth be told, he misses flying too, but he’s not a built flyer like they are, it's not a NEED like it is for them or at least for her*

Dream: *soft hitch of her fans as she takes a moment to cry. She'd been so wound up and couldn't figure out /why/. She'd not been allowed to fly when Oilslick had her, she knew she /could/ fly, just never had until she escaped, and he treated her so badly that of /course/ she was twitchy and irritable there. It was actually really starting to scare her that she was feeling like that in a place she's come to love. But flying makes sense, it /feels/ like the right answer.*

WJ: *will let her cling and cry as long as she needs to, then will try to get her back on task – just for now, hoping that knowing what's wrong will help her cope at least until DW gets home*

Dream: *it does. Not too much, bit it does. And the can go to the balcony more often*
DW: *home that afternoon like usual.*

*He'll find them on the balcony enjoying cubes of energon. There's one waiting for DW too, which isn't uncommon*

DW: *lands and will take a seat like usual, enjoying his fuel*
Dream: *shifting nervously and glancing at WJ. How is she supposed to bring this up?!*
