Meanwhile Jingyi has no idea why birds are yearning for his tail, but you know what? He'll take it. Surely this is not the only time someone's tried to light a fire under his rear assets, and it won't be the last.

His talons form a seal when he releases another blast of air, scythe like, at the birds coming for him, sending many feathers off course. Two strike tail, sliding off scales and down, not having gotten purchase enough to do true damage. Scales baby!
