Snippet #2106199

Maisi merely chuckles at his response, but offers no real explanation of her own.
"What straight jacket?" She asks coyly. Her eyes are on him as he surveys the scene around them, studying him the way he studies every dent and crack in the ground below him. She seems amused by the way his eyes flash and turn.
"That's another thing: most humans don't tend to treat their own mind like some type of computer." She walks alongside him for a bit, then suddenly grabs his arm as though to stop him.
"Walking bores me." She announces with a yawn. "Let's go somewhere else. Even if you can't fly, I assume you know how to jump, can't you?" Without waiting for an explanation, she suddenly takes off, sprinting towards a trash bin pushed against the wall up ahead of them. With a well timed leap, she launches herself into the air and propels herself off the side off the side of the bin with her feet, using the momentum to land a few feet above it on the chain link fence that lines the exit way of the alley. The fence rattles as she bounces off of it and grabs onto the edge of a rooftop hanging a few feet above her head. Without missing a beat, she swings her body onto the roof in one single, smooth motion and her muscles relax into a crouch. She watches him, tilting her head expectantly.
"Are you coming or not?"
