The dementor shrinks away; it was willing to try going around one glowy person, but two are above its pay grade. It starts to rise into the air to fly away.

Permalink
Feral's glowy person—who looks more like a blurred, glowing copy of Feral than anything—leaps after it.

Feral giggles.
Permalink
Feral's glowy person is just as effective as Bella's more abstract one.

The cloak falls.
Permalink

Bella applauds.

Permalink
"Incendio," says Feral. The cloak is gone before it hits the ground.

He walks back to Bella, still giggling. There are tears running down both sides of his face; he doesn't appear to notice them.
Permalink

Bella hugs him.

Permalink
Hugs.

"You wanna go back, or get the next one?"
Permalink

"Let's get the next one. Heh, you don't even need me along to do this, now, do you?"

Permalink

"Probably easier with you, though," he says. "We wouldn't even have to land, now that I've had my good look. If it was just me I'd have to turn human again to cast the Patronus."

Permalink

Bella nods. "We can just strafe them."

Permalink

He cracks up and hugs her again, a little shakily.

Permalink

Hugs. Her glowy person fades out. "You okay? You have tear marks on your face." She digs around in her pocket for leftover candy from their packed snacks-in-Santa-Cruz.

Permalink

"Do I?" He wipes his face with the hand that is not still holding his wand. "Yeah, I do." He shrugs. "I'm fine - I just - " and he grabs some chocolate out of her hand.

Permalink

She lets him have all of it; she was near her glowy person the whole time.

Permalink

He wolfs it down, hugs her again, and turns back into a Thestral.

Permalink

She recasts his Cushioning Charm, hops on, and says, "Giddyup."

Permalink
He makes a noise that is surpisingly like his usual snicker and kicks off from the ground, wheeling around as he climbs into the sky.

It's only a few minutes at top speed until they find the next Dementor.
Permalink
Bella tries strafing it, taking aim and firing her Glowy Person directly at it.

Flumph goes the cloak.
Permalink
Of course, now they have to deal with the cloak.

Feral looks at it.

It goes up in flames, and by the time it drifts to the ground, there is nothing left but a few threads of crumbling ash.
Permalink

"You're not supposed to do that. We could have landed," Bella chides.

Permalink

He snorts.

Permalink

"Anyway, unless there's another one really nearby, let's go back to school."

Permalink
Feral nods, circles, and heads off.

A quarter of an hour later: school!
Permalink

Bella reverses the Disillusionment, and does some homework, until it is evening and she heads back to her and Sherlock's room.

Permalink
And there is Sherlock.

"Did you have a nice trip?"
