[It's early morning when this feed comes on, the camera focused on an Aerodactyl--which, while already the size of a large dog, still looks young--curled up on the sidewalk beside a sleeping Vaporeon. Said Aerodactyl is decidedly not asleep, and is looking intently at something off-camera. The stillness doesn't last long. His head lowers slightly, back hunching, before exploding into motion. The camera follows him as he…strangely doesn't take flight, but rushes with a hopping gait along the ground using its wings in place of forelimbs. Straight into a flock of Pidove.]
[Fortunately for the birds, they all manage to take to the sky in time to escape, leaving the Aerodactyl hopping in frustrated circles and snapping up at the air. But still he makes no move to fly after them. A few moments later, the Vaporeon that had been sleeping before walks back into sight of the camera, tail waving in irritation as she scolds the Aerodactyl. The dinosaur calms almost immediately, tucking his head down contritely before following her back towards the camera like a duckling. But the camera doesn't linger on this, instead swinging back around to show Envy, who's frowning.]
It's been more than a week since he hatched, and he still won't fly. He should be able to, he was born with the move.
[He sighs frustratedly, leaning back against the bench he's sitting on and gesturing with one hand.]
Like I'd know how to teach something how to fly. What am I supposed to do, throw him out a window and see what happens?
[…which no he's not really going to, he doesn't think it would actually work. There's a reason why he was happy to let his Vaporeon take over the baby dinosaur parenting duties, and that's because Envy does not know how to deal with baby anything, but he still doesn't want it to get terribly injured.]
