"WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!"
Ciela hadn't been able to properly fly in days, for a wide variety of reasons. But none of that mattered now, because she was flying. Her wings were fully outstretched and she hadn't plotted a course, intending to just fly circles and do tricks for a while. Anyone on the ground might get a show out of it, but this wasn't for them.
She banked up sharply, snapping her wings closed and flipping backward until she was looking at the ground and falling headfirst. She counted off seconds in her head, proceeding at terminal velocity for a small group of confused onlookers, until at the last moment her wings snapped open again and she drew level, buzzing heads and laughing like a tiny madwoman. She pulled up again, spiraling as she rose, until she was at a good height with a view of the whole grounds. Here she just hovered, watching over the school, breathing hard from the adrenaline. She took a deep breath of the clouds, and a tiny smirk formed on her face as she took off again, aiming for a cloud.

"Hyuah?! What is this noise all about? Don't tell me..."
Vanessa was woke up by the sudden noises coming from outside her dormitory, and they seemed to come from the Courtyard. She opened her window, and saw Ciela, one of her few friends here, derping around with her wing-thingy. She simply giggled at the situation, being used to Ciela's excitement rushes and crazy actions. It had a charm of it's own, and Vanessa could feel like she had talent for air combat, which is something very important and hard to deal with if not prepared enough. A nice huntress she would make, but Vanessa didn't plan on getting outshined by a freshman.
She took off the cat pijamas she used to sleep, and went downstairs, her weapon strapped in her back, just in case. As she got there, she looked at the sky and shouted, trying to get Ciela's attention. Given how much excited she was for finally being able to fly, it wouldn't really work.
"Oi! Ciela, be careful with harsh turns!"

Ciela started to spiral and drilled right through the cloud, looping around and beginning to drift lazy circles. It wasn't long before she heard a familiar voice drifting up to where she was sitting. Ciela looked, and sure enough, there was Vanessa. A wicked little grin spread across her face, and she made a motion like bracing herself against empty air before firing off like a shot, right at Vanessa. The wind was whipping through her hair as she rocketed toward the ground once more, counting off seconds. The crowd slowly realized her destination and cleared a landing zone.
At the perfect time, she snapped her wings at an angle and came hovering to a halt right in front of Vanessa, keeping herself at eye-level with the sophomore. "Hi." She smiled, a giant toothy grin of pure adrenaline, her hair an absolute mess.

"Gah?! What in the heck are you doing? What would happen if those wings of yours start malfunctioning all of the sudden and you fall?!"
She shouted at her, a bit pissed that she was risking her life just for the sake of doing it. But she then took a deep breath, and sighed, a carefree smile opening up in her face. Even if she didn't want her to risk herself like that, she couldn't cut off a bird's wings just because she was worried about it falling mid-air. And even if she didn't want to admit it, she was a bit jealous of her. Being able to soar through the skies at will must be awesome, or at least that was what she thought.
"Just... Be more careful. You don't need to show off to anyone here.

"Pssh. Please. I take fantastic care of these. They're not gonna break on me anytime soon." Ciela rose a little and spun in midair. She loved her wings; she knew every piece of them inside and out and how to proceed if any one of them malfunctioned, broke, whatever. Even if something did break she could probably glide to safety on her wings. She lowered back down to Vanessa's eye level, taking a second to fix her hair. "And who said anything about showing off? This is for me."

"Anyway... You still need to study a little from time to time. Just flying around won't get you to the Sophomore class. If you want to, we can practice a little the basics."
She sighed, before yawning a bit. Ciela did indeed wake her up before the time she wanted to do so, so she was a bit sleepy and was having problems with keeping her eyes open. She had studied overnight the basics of offensive aura usage, and therefore the sudden wake up call wasn't so good for her mind. She looked at her, before giggling.
"You hyper-active prick... I was having such a good dream before you woke me up... Anyway, let's do it or not?

Ciela noticed Vanessa yawning, choosing to ignore the comment about her needing to study more. Part of the reason she hadn't been able to fly was a set of tests that annoyingly managed to line up in perfect sequence, which she'd been studying for. She checked the time on her goggles, and realized that it was actually kinda early.
"Yeah! You can tell me about your dream and I can kick your butt!" She closed her wings, dropping to the floor and looking up at Vanessa. Without hovering she was barely chest-level on the sophomore. She pushed her goggles up onto her forehead, practically vibrating while she tried to stand still.

"Ha. Of course you will. But anyway, do you wanna do some training or anything? Now that i'm awake, i need to shake it up so that i don't feel sleepy for the rest of the day."
She patted the girl, smiling. She was so small, it was kinda like her charming feature. The small, cute and hyper-active flying girl. She then giggled, before picking up her sheathed weapon and lightly smacking Ciela's head with it.
"This is for waking me up so early. I need to sleep to regain my energies, unlike you."

Ciela snapped her wings open again, grinning. She jumped upward, flipping once before alighting gently on Vanessa's shoulders. "You better not fall asleep on me." She pointed at the horizon, trying to be very dramatic and cool. "Forward! To training!"

"Heh, i'm really thinking about start calling you Hyper-Active Harpy. But anyway, let's go."
She ran towards where Ciela was pointing, smiling as she started to run in zig-zags, trying to make her fall down from her shoulders. Even if she was way too reckless and excited, Vanessa couldn't stop finding her cute. And she is indeed one of the few friends she has here, so why bother with how active she wants to be? Let the girl have her fun.
