Piper started at the question. She looked at the strange device in Kaii's paws, suddenly a little apprehensive of the unknown. "Er, I suppose," she allowed.

Kaii thus turned to Swifttail. "Swift, mind helping me? Keep this spun please as I attach the thing."

Swifttail nodded as Piper spoke, ears attentive. He hadn’t even thought about her tail. Of course lack of control over it would throw her balance off. He stepped closer, giving a faint, apologetic tilt of his head.
“Should’ve seen that meself. Sharp eye ye’ve got there.” His paw brushed the edge of the frame as though to steady it. “Shows how yer literally part o’ the build crew, yerself. Spottin’ what the rest of us miss.”
His gaze drifted to Kaii as the marble fox rummaged in his toolbag, curiosity tugging his ears forward. When the little whirling contraption came out and started to spin, Swifttail’s eyes widened.
“Great seasons, mate… are ye really strappin’ a spinny t’ her?” His voice wavered between awe and disbelief, but his grin was genuine.
He gave a low chuckle, tail flicking.
“Looks a bit daft, sure, but… might be clever with the right fittings. Not every first try’s neat an’ tidy. Ain’t that the whole game o’ tinkerin’?”
Catching Piper’s apprehension, he offered her a small smile.
“Nothin’ t’worry over. Just a quick experiment. If it goes flyin’ off, I’ll be the one catches it.”
When Kaii turned to him, Swifttail barked a laugh and reached for the device.
“Aye, I’ll keep it spinnin’. Though if this thing takes off like a top, don’t blame me fer lettin’ it sail.”
He set it whirling as best he could, ears forward in curiosity as he watched Kaii work.
