[ Unfortunately, Chiaki does sleep. However, it generally starts some considerable time after sunrise, which is much different from most of his friends and even his brother. Usually once people start dropping off, all he can do is find some way or another to entertain himself until it's time for his morning ritual before bed.

Therefore, he's excited to be able to pass the time with someone else, and especially excited to spend it with Matthias. He doesn't expect anything quite so fancy as the setup that greets him as he rises up over the edge of the roof, seemingly floating on the air. He does have to concentrate to settle down properly, but once his feet are on the solid surface, he gives Matthias a bright smile and a wave. ]

I told you I could get here myself~

(( He's fluffing one last pillow when Chiaki's voice grabs his attention. Turning to see him already on the roof, a brow lifts and a broad smile splits across his face. ))

Are you Spider-man? Did you scale the building?

(( He's only half serious. Though, he's also intensely curious as he doesn't see any equipment that would allow Chiaki to climb. Waving him over to their cozy little spot, he laughs quietly then asks: ))

Did you fly? That would be a neat trick.

[thrashingdragon]

I did!

[ He is incredibly proud, grinning happily. It's a fairly new skill and he's very excited to impress with it. He even decides to do it again, looking around briefly before shuffling a little to the side, then closing his eyes until his feet leave the floor, at which point he gives Matthias the most pleased-with-himself smile. ]

See!

[ And like that, Chiaki heads over to the spot, only landing again with a small wobble once he reaches the fancy setup. ]

This is really nice... Did you do this for me?

[thedevilsaid]

(( Those dark eyes go wide and, after a beat, he claps his hands together in delight. It's not the first time he's met someone who has that power, but since he doesn't have it, it makes him excited to see it. ))

Wooooow~! That's so cool!

(( Bouncing a little on his feet at Chiaki floats over, he grins and makes a sweeping gesture to invite him to the cozy little picnic. ))

I wanted to make sure we'd be comfortable while we're up here.

[ Matthias' reaction only serves to enhance Chiaki's own excitement over his new ability. Of course this wasn't why he put so much hard work into learning it, but he feels the effort has already more than paid off just from that. ]

I'm still working on it. It's hard to tell how close I am to the ground sometimes, so I'm bad at landing nicely. Maybe once I practice some more, I can take you with me...

[ So invited, he looks over the picnic appreciatively, but instead of taking a seat there, he moves straight to Matthias to circle arms around his middle, looking up at him cutely. ]

You're really sweet~

[thedevilsaid]

You're sweet.

(( Matthias is only sweet when it suits him to be. And, well, he finds things like this fun. The idea of wooing someone, of being able to sweep them off their feet (metaphorically, of course), is something he likes. It's a challenge, sometimes. But fun, regardless. ))

Once you practice more, I'll be very happy to fly with you! No one's ever taken me flying before. Not like that, anyway. Airplanes totally don't count.
