[You can't actually see Gabriel... Just the weirdly classy (and by "classy,"  it looks like something ripped off the set of "Boogie Nights") apartment that is not so much an apartment as some random friggin' building he repurposed the interior of through abuse of angel magic, because that's how he rolls. When he speaks, it's offscreen.]

Okay, so. I

[She laughs before she can think to stifle it. She's seen cat and dog ears, claws and scruff -- but no wings, and the image is incredibly absurd.]

Nice place.

[HI, SEXY LADY WHO WILL NOT SLEEP WITH HIM.]

Someone needed to offset the Apocalypse chic- it's so last season. [He wiggles his eyebrows and takes a long sip from his drink. Yeah, Michiru, you... Sure don't want this.]

[OKAY IS SHE GETTING A REPUTATION.]

Do they work? [She rolls her shoulders, as if indicating the wings. Also? This is barely concealed amusement on her face.]

Not about to go taking a swan dives off any cliffs to find out. I have my own way of flying- it's faster. These? Are just annoying.

Isn't that what family does? They look after each other--

[Your wings. Sure, Cameron's got an addition of her own, but those are just cheetah ears. Which are twitching.]

Those look problematic.

Our family sucks at it. [So bitterly. Oh look, his feathers can literally get ruffled. Whouda thunk it? He raises one and glowers at it.]

Yeah, just a little.

You can go to therapy. Psychiatrists can fix that. [Supposedly. It did nothing for her family.]

Wait one moment.

[She goes and comes back with a bird in her hand. She turns it so its wing is facing Gabriel, and then she pets it gently, one fingertip at a time. The bird gradually relaxes.]

You should try that. Or I could try it for you.

Nooo, they can't. Believe me. We could reanimate Freud and he'd blow his own head off in protest.

[There is so much staring going on here.]

Are you saying you wanna pet me?

[...Oh look, he's relaxing a little already. ...He's easy. If wings get him chicks, he's okay with that.]

[bunny_flower]

Those look rather beautiful actually. They will probably disappear when the week ends.

[Unohana's nose twitches rabbit-like when she finishes her sentence.]

[checkoutpandora]

Good, because I like my wings metaphorical, not literal.

[Headtilt] Wow. Nose like that and you could be in the running for Bewitched. Elizabeth Montgomery, eat your heart out.

[bunny_flower]

I beg your pardon ?

[Twitch twitch.]

I think my first goal around here is gonna be installing satellite dishes. You people are in desperate need of an education, my friend.

[This one has managed to escape an event for once. So she'll be lording it over other people for the duration of the week. It's good therapy.]

New look?

I needed to clue in the few people who actually missed I'm an angel.

[p0ker_alice]

Makes quite a statement, if I do say so myself.

What can I say? I go big or I go home.

[So you really just speak a lot, then. He wasn't sure the first time, but now ...]

[checkoutpandora]

[And wow you really don't talk at all.

STARING CONTEST GO.]

[He's a snake this week. He's stopped blinking.]

[....Damn.]

We've gotta quit meeting like this. People'll talk.
