Further, when Jonathan is able to fly like what Chiang does and after Chiang goes away to another place, Jonathan thinks about his past. Then he wonders if
there is a gull like him, who wants to break his limits, to discover the real meaning of flying Bach 61.
If he had known there just a tenth, just a hundredth, of what he knew here, how much more life would have meant He stood on the sand and fell to
wondering if there was a gull back there who might be struggling to break out of his limits, to see the meaning of flight beyond a way of travel to get
a breadcrumb from a rowboat Bach 61.
Based on Jonathan’s thought and his conversations with others, it can be concluded that Jonathan is curious. He always wants to know and discover
something hidden that he does not know.
4. Brave
Jonathan is also characterized as a brave seagull. He is brave enough to take a challenge. Through a lot of practices, he can fly higher than other gulls do, flying
at high speed. When the wind is just like a monster roaring at his head, he tries to move his wingtips into the faintest twist he has. Jonathan knows that doing such
kind of movements is not easy. However, he chooses to do it because he needs to practice so that he can reach his dream. As we know flying in that high speed takes
too many risks. The wind was a monster roar at his head. Seventy miles per hour, ninety, a
hundred and twenty and faster still. The wing-strain now at a hundred and forty miles per hour wasn’t nearly as hard as it had been before at seventy,
and with the faintest twist of his wingtips he eased out of the dive and shot above the waves, a gray cannonball under the moon Bach 25.
Since Jonathan has courage inside him, he takes the risks of flying at high speed to reach his dream, flying in the air like an eagle. In his practicing, Jonathan
knows that he is probably killed if he cannot control the speed and his movements while he flies in the air. However, he keeps his fear off and still flies.
Once, he can reach his terminal velocity. He thinks that it is a breakthrough of a new way of life for seagulls. Then Jonathan is going to tell his flock.
Unfortunately, when he comes back to his flock, he faces a big trouble. His flock assumes that Jonathan is trying to break the rule of seagull by living for flying.
Even Elder in the Council Flock seagull accuses him of violating the rule. A seagull never speaks back to the Council Flock but at that time Jonathan’s voices is raised.
Then, he speaks back to the Council Flock. Speaking back to the Council Flock is not allowed. As his punishment, he is sent out of the flock and becomes an outcast
Bach 35. As an outcast, he lives in another place with his new flock. They all are
outcasts. In his new place he gets many lessons from his instructor, Sullivan and the Elder Gull, Chiang. Here, they use telepathy to talk to each other. One evening,
when the other gulls gather together stand on the sand, thinking of something that Jonathan does not know. Jonathan encourages himself by walking to the Elder Gull,
Chiang. He asks him about flying to Bach 54. Doing a lot of practices supervised by Chiang, Jonathan develops his skill of
flying and Jonathan passes the practice. Both Chiang and Jonathan are going back to the flock. All of the seagulls there look at Jonathan in awesome. They are proud
of Jonathan because he can transform to another dimension like what Chiang does. It is stated that Jonathan is brave. He put aside his fear so that he can learn how to
transform into another place. He is not afraid of making mistakes. He fails for many times. However, he is not desperate. His instructor, Sullivan, even is surprised at
what he sees. Sullivan says that Jonathan shows no fear of learning compared to any gull he has seen in ten thousand years. Knowing that complement, Jonathan feels in
happy Bach 60. Based on Jonathan’s thought, direct comment given by the author, and
character seen by other, it can be concluded that Jonathan is brave.
5. Stubborn
