To Matthew's credit, he was adaptable and ready to go with Nico's chaos within an instant. The reliability and loyalty that everyone should love! "Great! Thank you!" Nico's face was glowing with gratitude, and so was the fellow bird-trainer.

"You two are lifesavers! The equipment's right over there- should be easy as pie to adjust it to their size!"

Matt was pulled once more to the equipment; a basket attached to several flexible straps that would securely attach to the Pokemon. "This might be fun! Bring Oto out." Nico's love for flying was starting to show.

"Yeah, it sorta is!" Nico agreed, eagerly watching as Oto was sent out. He hadn't found the right bird pokemon for him, but having Matthew's flying-type to dote on easily filled the void. Smiling wide as he greeted the bird with a nice scratch under his beak, "Hey buddy! We just wanna take a little ride across town, but instead of us sitting on your feathers, you're gonna carry us with equipment! Kinda like a big nest?" He began leading the bird toward the ride equipment, "We'll go slow and make sure it's comfy on you first though, alright?"

Hopefully the process of getting Oto saddled up didn't take too long, and the group would soon be ready for a relaxing flight across the trees.

The 'saddling' process went over relatively smoothly, all things considered. They let Oto take his time and decide the pace, and soon enough, the bird was successfully doing test flights! Nico honestly wondered if the bird preferred the equipment over having two humans saddled to his back... "You're the best, Oto! I think we're ready to do this- so who's first?!"

A number of tourists had already left after realizing how unpracticed Nico and Matt were at this job as volunteers... But a daring-looking pair of old ladies soon approached. "That'll be us!! I came here to fly and dammit, I will fly tonight!" One of the ladies declared, earning a broad, approving grin from Nico.

"Welcome aboard, ladies! There's lots to see from the sky." Nico announced, letting the two file into the basket before following alongside his boyfriend. "Nice and easy, Oto!"

The fly was surprisingly smooth! Nico was grinning proudly, looking over the view and enjoying the wind ruffling his hair and clothes. Flying had always been a delightful experience. Especially since he'd grown up taking many flying trips in the air. I really need to find a bird pokemon... Nico decided.

All too soon, their flight had ended, and after carefully helping the thrilled women off the basket, Nico suddenly went to hug Matt, "That was fun!! Being a flying taxi is kind've a neat job." Such a naive comment as Nico was oblivious to the daily challenges he and Matt had luckily side-stepped today.
