[You are now picturing bird!Kaede with vector arms. Possibly more efficient than the actual Ocypetes, but maybe not as noisy. Unless present company is involved, of course; Nora's already started back up into a sitting position and is trying to rise and get into her face when his hand is suddenly grabbed. That handily (heh) distracts him from his latest moment of temper.
He makes a noise vaguely like a muffled, angry teakettle and tries to give Zelos and Kaede both a swat for whatever the hell is going on here. He doesn't need help, he's not actually stuck to the floor (anymore)!!]
How the hell're we supposed to be going on ahead without whatever damn magic you were using?? [OK, the stairs are in better shape, but that's like saying the bug spit is now melted; is it going to stay that way? Is it really?] And it's lunchtime, anyway, and there's nothing to eat except those stupid caterpillars!
[.......... thoughtful pause.]
The sticky stuff's not too bad... Except for the stick.
