(With all of the apologies lately, Daenerys is going to prove to be quite different from the rest. She, for the most part, is looking content, watching something - someone, actually - dipping and diving over her head.)

I was informed that I may acquire wings in time. How might I go about earning them quicker?

(She has long held onto the dream of flight. Now that dream has become a ravenous craving and the young queen longs for it.)

I fall under the control of the Sanguis moon. I had talons, scales, fangs, but sadly I was grounded.

What of fire? Are you immune to it? (Losing what she has for immortality would be a poor exchange in her opinion.) It can't be easy to live for so long. Are you ever lonely? There could come a day when you are the last on an empty world.

In my years, I have had limbs removed. I have been stabbed through the chest. I have been assaulted with fire, both natural and mystical. My body is nearly impossible to destroy. That said I am not 'immune' to it, per se, it merely cannot inflict any lasting damage to me. As for your other question...

[Her tone shifts from prideful to serious.]

I will not lie. Sometimes, knowing they will simply leave my life one day makes it difficult to truly care for people. Furthermore, it can make it difficult to even understand them. Such frail and easily slain people, who will be gone in the blink of an eye. I find I can no longer entirely understand what motivates them. But I am not lonely. There are other long-lived beings aside from vampires. I seek my friends among them.

I am immune to fire, but not to knives, daggers or swords. Losing a limb or two would likely kill me too. (Maybe that is a kindness, however, depending on the situation.) Did those wounds not disturb you?

(Insanity is an issue with her and her kin. If pain worsened such weaknesses, that would not be a life she wished to live.)

Are your long-lived friends present? This is the only world in which I still live, you see.

Only one such friend shares this world with me, I am afraid. As for those injuries, it is not as if I did not feel them happening to me. I am not the sort of person who takes some manner of twisted enjoyment from pain, so I cannot much claim I enjoyed them, either. But after hundreds of years you grow used to it. The feeling of such injury begins to feel mild. Eventually, you just grow used to it.

[She is silent for a few moments, to let all she'd said sink in.]

So now it should become obvious why I say it is a price most would not enjoy. Though if it is merely flight, and not actual wings, you wish, that is much easier accomplished with a simple flight spell. It is difficult to find someone that cannot soar through the sky where I was living before this world had the audacity to drag me into it.
