[Wow really? She teleported to the hallway? Whatever- he gets up and opens the door]

Really? You couldn't have just- teleported in here?

[showmeyourwreath]

I didn't want to be rude in case you needed another minute. You were tidying up, weren't you?

[wilder]

Just a couple plates. It's not like the place is trashed.

[But whatever! He'll hold the door open for her so he can shut it when she's in]

[showmeyourwreath]

[Such a gentleman and wow, these are some nice digs, okay. Not that she gawks, because 1) that's unseemly 2) she's used to seeing nice places, but still, she has a cursory glance or two. She's never been in someone else's room before.]

Lovely place you have here.

[wilder]

[Yep and since he counts as a sub-ruler- he's got some nice digs too! Even a study attached to the room!]

Thanks. They hooked me up pretty nice here.

[Though frankly, he doesn't give two shits about it]

Anyway, you wanted to see my wings, or do you want a glass of wine first?

i cannot believe how long this thread is

[showmeyourwreath]

It doesn't surprise me.

[She doesn't come from a rigid caste system but rank does matter quite a bit where she comes from. That's just how life is.]

I'm alright, thank you for offering.

[She's being patient, really, but that still doesn't mean she's not thinking wingswingswings.]

honey all their threads get this long

[wilder]

[He shrugs] Sure, sure.

But alright, guess I'll get it over with. [HE CAN TELL YOU'RE TRYING TO HOLD BACK THAT EXCITEMENT MISS. Stepping into the middle of the room (since it'd suck to knock anything over), he tries to ignore how weird this feels and summons out his large golden wings.]

Tah-dah.

i know but she just WANTED ONE THING HOW DID IT GET LIKE THIS

[showmeyourwreath]

Zelos they're...they're beautiful. [She clasps her hands, delighted and humbled all at once.] Absolutely wonderful.

BECAUSE ITS THEM VYND, BECAUSE ITS THEM

[wilder]

[His wings flutter a bit, and he rubs the back of his head. Honestly, he's very used to getting compliments on the rest of his appearance. The wings though...not so much. It's still kinda awkward for him tbh]

Heh, thanks. [Oh right, should probably cover the awkward with something] But that's not a surprise, right? I mean, they do come from me after all.

TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN

[showmeyourwreath]

[She knows that he knows that she has wings too, but she wonders if it'd be better for him if they were on more equal ground, so to speak. If anything, it might give him something to look at so he's not so focused on how focused she is on him.

She might have to clip him one if he makes a "i'll show you mine if you show me yours" joke, though. Nonetheless, she makes a little victory sign and says.]

Winx Believix.

[There's that brilliant flash of gold and she is transformed. There, much better hopefully. But oh no his wings are fluttering. That's co cute even if they're wings she sees them all the time, but they're not her wings, okay. There's a world of difference!]

Of course, not surprising at all in hindsight, but a girl can be impressed, can't she? And what a fabulous colour--they go great with your hair and your eyes, too.

[But they're so great, they're so great, and her own wings perk up a little with how happy she is.]

[wilder]

[Honestly, it does help. Maybe not so much for the staring at her so much as just not feeling like he's the only winged freak around. It was the same reason he felt more at eased with stuff like this when Colette was around- he wasn't alone then.]

[And even if he knows Flora isn't a Chosen, or even an angel- well she still isn't entirely normal]

[Also..might apparently have a thing for wings. Wow. Who knew. ]

Heh- no no, you can be impressed all you like! [He won't stop you!] I'm glad you like them so much.

[showmeyourwreath]

[Don't you? is what she wants to ask, but she wonders if that might be a little much. Flora's had to hide who and what she is before, albeit and thankfully not for long, but she was relieved when she no longer had to. Zelos doesn't seem very relieved, but a little awkward, like he's slipped into a convertible dress and isn't sure how to wear it. She doesn't want to push too much too soon.]

They feel nice too, and seem a little familiar, actually.

[wilder]

[Short answer? No. Longer answer? Ahahahahahaha hell no. Though okay, maybe it wasn't so much the wings themselves so much as just...everything they reminded him of. But you know, like hell he was going to explain that]

Feel nice?

But...you aren't even touching them.

[showmeyourwreath]

[Flora blinks. Touch, what--]

Zelos, can you not perceive energies?

[Is that just a thing???]

[wilder]

Uh-

No? [Why...would he, he's not an elf...]

[showmeyourwreath]

[Because you have magic, duh. But she rubs the back of her head a little.] Oh, I'm sorry. Using magic and sensing it go hand-in-hand where I'm from.

[wilder]

Oh.

[He gives a one shoulder shrug]

I guess it usually does, I know elves can sense that stuff. Buuuut I'm not one so- I don't have it.

[showmeyourwreath]

Well, not being able to sense magic has its advantages too, I suppose. Nobody can exploit it for one, but now I'm worried about you maybe walking into some magical trap and not even knowing it!

[wilder]

[His wings ruffle a little with indignation] Hey, c'mon- gimme some credit! That's only happened...[...half a dozen times...] a few times!

[showmeyourwreath]

[that ruffle is cute Her own wings droop, flatly, with a slight stare to match before she raises an eyebrow.]

You sounded like you had to think about that.

[wilder]

[PFFFT. His wings flutter a little with embarassment before he makes them stop]

Did not!

Okay, soooo I may have gotten myself into a few traps in my day! But I always get out just fine! I mean see for yourself- I still got all six limbs! [Wings count as limbs right?]

[showmeyourwreath]

Uh huh, I believe you. [Except not at all.]

Yes, I'm glad you're in one piece. [That is genuine.] Which probably speaks for...something on your part. [Skill? Ingenuity? Crazy luck? Maybe a combination of all three.

She sighs, but can't help but smile a little bit, even as she folds her arms]

Whatever it is, keep doing it, but maybe try not to get into traps in the first place, although I'm sure you didn't exactly want to and hopefully didn't touch or pull things you probably shouldn't have.

[wilder]

You mean speaks for my talent, power and ingenuity? Why thank you, Flora! ♥

[Except wow this sounds like mothering now. He scoffs a little]

Jeez, what are you- a mother or something?

[He'd say his mother but- let's face it. His mother was possibly the most unmotherly mother on the face of the planet. So let's not touch that one]

[showmeyourwreath]

[Flora just stares upward and shakes her head. No use helping it.]

No, I'm just sensible.

[Totally mothering.

But, she looses her folded arms to lace her fingers in front of her, and her expression softens.]

We should go flying sometime, if you'd be okay with that. And if you'd be worried about being seen, I can take care of that.

[It'd be great if he could be totally out with it, but baby steps.]

[wilder]

[Yep. So totally mothering. But he's not gonna draw more attention to that, since man talk about a touchy subject]

You can?

[Since seriously HE KINDA STANDS OUT HERE]
