Evolve lungs and wing structuring such that we can now both fly and swim almost indefinately.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Indeed, although this is starting to sound a bit like a dragon.

The electromagnetic spectrum didn't like that. We can still work on it, though. Maybe we can evolve the ability to survive in SPAAACE?

In addition, develop a "voice" (preferably at a very high or very low frequency) and improve our hearing/vibration sense.  We're a blind flier and a social species, let's improve our communication options and acquire echolocation.

From my mental image, we're still cthulid in nature. Three sets of muscular mandibles, a long fish-like body, a fish's tail, two large wings at the centre, two smaller wings near the front, a single leg-fin under each pair of wings, see-through scales, slimy skin, a hive and a horde of hexapedal lizard-like things with similarly tentacled faces.

Develop an appendage to produce a chemical that reacts somewhat violently with water. We can use it for self-defense and hunting, and our flying ability will allow us to escape our own "bomb".

I'd like to see if we can work on more intelligence/social organization this time.

Has anyone considered using bubblegrove plants to spread ourselves? As they are carried by the wind, they seem as a good way to expand the reach of our species.

+1 to ataching babies/hives to the bubblegrove seeds. Maybe also have our hives grow amoungst their roots to defend them from grazzers.
