Nah, I'm just getting myself off the hook. You can't say I owe you a favor if I paid you.

( well, and, also it's just the right thing to do when someone helps you out, but let's just go with that. he nods his approval at that sweet catch, elbowing him as he goes by. )

You ready to go?

[meltokio]

Yep, let's make some tracks.

[ ... he does wanna walk aa bit before he gets airborne before someone else freaks out about him flying. ]

[counterattack]

( it has been kind of lost on him that they'll fly again actually. there's no cow in-between them to make it not weird. he checks his compass and then heads right back on out. )

Come to think of it, you could make an absolute killing doing that. Transporting stuff, people, animals, whatever... getting above the incense gives you a real edge. It'd probably be worth a lot, and you'd save lives, too.

[meltokio]

[ he folds his hands behind his head, letting law take the lead. ]

No kidding. How does the Great Zelos' Gorgeous Angel Delivery Service sound?

[counterattack]

Gross. Also it's too long, nobody's gonna wanna say all that. They're just gonna resort to "hey you with the wings."

( which is all he deserves frankly. )

[meltokio]

That shows what you know about marketing and branding, Lawful.

[counterattack]

Do you have to call me that? And I know enough to know nobody sane uses a service that sounds like it deals in people rather than things. Especially not when it's run by a... sparkly bird guy.

[meltokio]

Everybody gets a nickname. And considering you made me an accessory to your little grand theft cattle adventure, I'm gonna say its sticking.

[ lawless sounds too cool. ]

The word you're looking for is angel.

[counterattack]

Nicknames are for friends.

( not sure we're there yet dude, even if you did manhandle his beef. and punch him to the borderline of a bisexual awakening. )

What even is an angel? It's a bird, right? Lloyd said that earlier, too.

[meltokio]

Any friend of Lloyd is a friend of mine.

[ read: you're stuck with me...

Okay. Now how does he explain this. ]

Angels are powerful winged beings.

[counterattack]

( sounds weirdly codependent, thinks the guy that would behave the same way toward any friend of Alphen's )

...So they're birds. Big birds.

[meltokio]

No, they're people with wings and magic. A lot more goes into a bird than just having wings!

[counterattack]

I've seen birds that can do magic, that's not impressive! Birds also have big, squawking beaks, just like you! You're a bird.

[meltokio]

You're not working with a lot upstairs, are you?

[counterattack]

Don't get mad at me for calling it like I see it. Unless you wanna tell me angels do something else different...

[meltokio]

[ oh you know, subjugate the whole world to revive a dead woman. ]

They stay young and live forever.

[counterattack]

( attempt to fish for better info: suc..cess...? hold the fuck up )

...Forever? Wait, so you can be really old—like say, a few thousand—but not look it?

[meltokio]

So the stories go.

[ I will neither confirm nor deny. ]

[counterattack]

( ...he really needs to apologize to lloyd whoops. and probably kratos?! )

Huh. Hard to believe a knucklehead like you would be older than dirt. Shouldn't you be more, I dunno, wise or something?

[meltokio]

I'm exactly how how old I look. But I am the most beautiful and intelligent of the bunch!

[ the bar is really low ]

[counterattack]

( side eye... )

So... pushing forty?

[meltokio]

Watch it, brat.

[counterattack]

Hehehe.

( ^_^ )

So, wait, is that how come you're so strong even though you barely know how to make a closed fist?

[meltokio]

Nope, that's just me being a cool and gorgeous natural fighter.

[ hff. ]

[counterattack]

There's no way you're that strong and completely untrained. Like—my dad's been fighting his whole entire life and I'm not even sure he can do that.

( thinks about it )

Well, no. He can. But he's also huge, and you're a total shrimp. There's something up with that!
