[He grumbles bashfully under his breath and stalks by them into the library.
But still takes the time to gently bop them in the chest with his forearm as he passes by.
He stops inside to figure out which shelves he wants to go to first. Maybe the next one on the list he hadn’t done anything with. He heads in that direction.]
[ in the correct npc thread this time i will inform you that aquila's tits are really nice. you needed to know this? you needed to know this.
they make an amused little noise when jason stalks off, very pleased with their victory, and follow off, craning their head briefly to look around the library before joining him. ]
Admittedly, it is nice to be able to walk in here and find a book from almost anywhere, isn't it? Universes on universes, time on time.
Well, Jason is bisexual so he can appreciate nice tits even if he is maybe seeing some people right now. Why are there nice tits… He won’t question it.
He stops at a shelf to let his eyes flick back and forth over the books, searching. He does offer Aquila a glance.]
I’ve been reading what I know, but I guess I should see what other people have. Kind of weird, but… not bad.
anyway when jason glances back they'll see aquila's actually gained a little height. a pair of shadowy wings are unfurled from their back; they're floating a bit above him, looking at some of the higher shelves. show off. ]
Probably. Half of the titles you've mentioned to me - if it weren't for this library, I never would have heard of them. Well, and Gems. Best way I'd get back in their good graces after falling asleep in a meeting was with a book or two.

[It's a question, but not. He sort of snorts when he says it like it's a joke.]
In a shocking turn of events, no actually. Back home, there are two people named Hawkman and Hawkgirl. I'll give you three guesses what they have and the first two don't count.
anyway they come back down to jason's level instead of browsing through the books, and let him take a closer look if he'd like, extending the left one out fully. the wings aren't particularly feathery - they're just made of shadows in a wing shape. ] Really creative name scheme, huh? Guess I can't really talk.
[Hmm. He just looks over the extended wing at first, brows together. Why aren't they feathery, you room full of feathers bastard... Hesitantly, he reaches out, but stops and pulls a little back.]
[ they like their name, thank you. also wow, asking. good boy jason is a lot, actually.
aquila wiggles the wing and then presses it into his hand when he pulls a little back. it's a little cold to the touch! it's more smooth textured than soft. ] Pet me gently. [ cease ]
[WAH. He sort of squints when the wing comes in hot, but doesn't do anything but raise his hand to "block" it. It feels... weird! It feels really fucking weird.]
You know, like... [Gestures at the wing.] Your feathers. How are you going to have wings, but not have any feathers on them? What the heck kind of wings...

He watches them float, pauses. He watches the wings with some interest, thinking. Listening too.]
Must be why they seemed to like the one I gave them in the tip box. Good for past me. They seem like a stickler.

How long you had those? The wings.
no subject
[ they hum, running their fingers over the spine of a book up at the top shelf. ] First time you've seen 'em?

Yeah, you can't, Aquila.
[Hmm. He just looks over the extended wing at first, brows together. Why aren't they feathery, you room full of feathers bastard... Hesitantly, he reaches out, but stops and pulls a little back.]
Can I touch it?
[Wow, asking.......]

So... where are all the feathers?
[He laughs like it's a joke.]

they tilt their head to the side, a bit slowly. ] Hmm?

no subject
[ they try to like, glance over their shoulder like they can see it...? ]
Iunno. Sucks, doesn't it? They're supposed to be feathery as hell, but no matter what, they come out like this.
no subject
Seriously...? That's... a little weird, I'm going to be honest. Nightman not a big fan of birds, or something?
no subject
Maybe. Maybe it's just an aesthetic thing. [ they reach over and pat one of their shadowy wings. ] Y'know, shadows and shit.
Guess I can't complain. Least I still get to have 'em.
no subject
[He still thinks this is weird, but cannot point it out because his evidence is breaking and entering.]
Not really a fan of wings or anything, but... they're pretty cool, I guess.
[Shut up.]
no subject

Tch. Don't be surprised if you fall in love with me once you get what I actually write.
[Two of them. Two little shits.]

["Why is the Dad in quotes, Jason?" He will not call Bruce his Dad unironically........right now.]

[ aquila is
the last person on god's green earth who is allowed to joke about daddy issues ]
no subject
Kinda rude. Maybe I'm really well-adjusted. [He's not!!! Well, he is when I lobotomized his trauma away.] It's a big family, so we split the issues.
no subject
anyway they look curious, tilting their head. ] Mmn. Big family...?
no subject
Yeah. There are about, I don't know, ten of us. Give or take a few who aren't legally required to show up to family get-togethers.
