BH6 Snippets - 2/18/2023
Did some work on the Ghost’s Fury sequel last night, we’re up to 22 consecutive chapters so some nice progress going here:
But did he want to learn that?  Part of him did, the part that always wanted to fly higher and farther, the part that was still that young Fury convinced that if he just flapped hard enough, he could reach the sun and pluck it out of the sky.
Another part, the sensible older-brother part, said that learning with the intent to dive in with his little brother on his back was a bad idea. Hiro could get ripped off by the contrary winds, and since he was too small to be able to use his weight against the winds, he’d be whipped around and around until enough ice coated him and the storm had tired of him before being blasted down to the ocean.  You know, if a Skrill didn’t nab him first.
And then there was the fact that a Yokai was wanting to go into the storm with him.  Forget all his reservations about having a Yokai strapped to his back, he didn’t know what the extra weight would do to him, and Hiro would be cross if the storm ripped Obake off his back and dunked him in the ocean.  Granted, it’d be a clean way to be rid of him…but still.
“Not today,” Tadashi said finally, angling away from the storm and towards the Yokai-nest, feeling Hiro and Obake turning to stare back at the towering clouds.  Felt like a pair of hatchlings on his back, the two of them basically on the same misbehaving wavelength.
Was that what bothered him about the two of them together? That either one enabled the other’s actions?  But that involved viewing Obake on an equal level as his brother as opposed to a cunning and dangerous predator.  Forget the fact that dragons themselves were cunning and dangerous predators, Obake had still shot Hiro down and that was a problem.
Tadashi: yes actually flying into a storm IS cool but Obake agrees so I’m against this on principle.
Also of the three mentioned Obake is the only one who isn’t a Night Fury in this.
