I’m good on the feathers I read the goosebumps book about learning to fly and it gave me a preview of my trypophobia when R.L. Stine described the feathers growing out of the main characters skin

ETA: it was “chicken chicken” not “how I learned to fly”

I'll hold off too because some feathers grow straight from the bones. Eek

I on the other hand am all that is man and will be taking the feathers because I want to look fabulous

Yeah, just leaves more plumage for me to dazzle the ladies with. Have fun not passing on your genes because i have the superior plumage.

I feel feathery

Oh, so feathery

All my plumage is standing up tall

Why would I dye my hair when plumage is an option?

Huh? I just read this book and that was not in there. The kids just drank a potion and then could fly, there was no outward difference to them. Maybe you are mixing up a different one, like the chicken one? We just started that so idk how it goes. The cover has the girl as a chicken though.

Ahh I checked the synopsis and you’re right I definitely got it mixed up with another. I need to find it now.

ETA:Definitely the chicken one jeez it just gave me goosebumps
