“Uhh… Well, about that…” To be honest, Tippy didn’t know anything about fixing Star Dishes. In fact, this was her first time ever trying to make one, and it didn’t look as sturdy as the ones other Star Heroes made. It had several cracks and was showering stardust everywhere, and smelled like it was on fire…
Luckily for her, this guy didn’t seem to be from around here. If he didn’t know anything about Star Dishes either, she could probably fake it until she got someone to fix it.
“…Don’t you worry about a thing, Puff- Er, Paintball,” she reassured him. “If it makes you feel any better, I’ll give it a test flight first.” And with that, she hopped onto the rickety Star Dish, taking off high into the sky with a “YATTAH!”
“…Inkball,” the Repairman muttered. Then what she said hit him. “Hey, hang on–!”
He leaped back as the thing took off, looking up into the sky with a worried expression. Yeah she had wings, but those did little good in fiery explosions.
Thinking quickly, he dug into a toolbox and pulled out a fire extinguisher and a pogo stick. It would take a bit to get up there, but hopefully he’d have time…
Boing. Boing. Boing.
