"CAWWWWW!"

Asp beat her jet-black wings against the night sky as she flew off the roof of the Fourth Wall, generating lift and feeling the wind whipping through her feathers. Do not think for a moment that the usually-nimble martial artist was doing this well. Her coordination was off, her unfamiliarity with her body completely screwing with her, and her legs were tiny. She had tail feathers and a beak, and a black wingspan that she actually thought was really, really cool, but for the fact that it was so wildly, awfully awkward.
A garbage truck rumbled by below, and somewhere within her, the Obrimos's usual hunger almost drove her to the scent of garbage. Internally, she was repulsed. The crow part of her brain loved the notion, and the animalistic urge almost made her want to bird-vomit.
A squall of wind caught her wings, sending her scrambling to stay aloft as she drove toward the pavement. She barely managed to right herself thanks to a second lucky draft, pulling back up before she faceplanted with the force of gravity and left some beak on the cement.
She pulled hard to the left, tumbling through the wind more than flying, and other birds flew around her as a horn BEEPED by a tree. They bumped into her - she wasn't used to flying in a rotation. One looked at her and she had a strange urge, noticing strange things like the way his feathers were preened --
"CAW!"
Eww.
She couldn't keep up with the flock, so shitty was she on this first flight. Whoever said flying like a bird was awesome? They were kidding themselves! This was the worst. It was like learning to walk, with wings --
TREE--
A squak. A THUD. Pain, as she slid down through branches and bark...
This is gonna take so much practice...
