[ JJ appreciates that Clair doesn't bother to baby him, though his cool, confident persona does slide right off the second that those massive wings unfurl and Aquilo gallops right into the sky. It's not like anything JJ could've imagine, and he was too delirious the last time he was in the air to even notice what was going on.
Aquilo is incredibly strong beneath them, and JJ doesn't doubt that they'll stay in the sky but his arms tighten around Clair's waist all the same in alarm, his stomach unused the up and downs of a pegasus. He refrains from ducking his face against her shoulder at least, emboldened by the sound of her delight and well.
He trusts Clair not to put him in danger either. For all that she can be abrupt, Clair is kinder than one might expect from a woman of the nobility.
Carefully, he shifts his gaze to something other than the sight of her hair in front of him, to look ahead and it's breathtaking. ]
