[Geir takes off in a sweep of wings; that part is normal enough, and Jay has probably experienced it to some extent on their exploratory trips. Geir isn't bothering to fly extra slowly and carefully with Jay tied on like this, though. it's much more a rollercoaster than an airbus this time.
the other part that isn't normal is that after a brief soaring hop, he wings his way to the edge of the world. Geir deliberately picks the spot without ocean that's closest to the ocean -- he wants to check what that looks like from underneath -- and lands there. and there he stands poised for a moment, scuffing his claws dubiously at where rock meets space. don't fail him now, grip strength.]
Okay. Keep holding...
[he folds his wings in tightly and starts progressing headfirst down the cliff, picking out clawholds as best he can.]
