Who: Ankh [personal profile] notsogreedy
When: IC 7/25
Where: The zoo
What: A chance to talk about wings without so many emotions getting in the way
Rating/Warning: None

It wasn't usually a common sight to find someone, even a zookeeper, standing in an enclosure with a bird of prey. That said, it had been a somewhat more frequent occurrence at the one here since a certain Greeed with an affinity for birds had arrived. He was sitting on a rock by the fence, not far from the path where guests of the zoo could walk by and look in. His arm was the one that was clearly not human, armored in red and black with a sculpted bird along the back of it... and on the top of that was a real bird. A hawk, specifically, sitting there as calmly as if he were a tree.

She remembered. It'd just taken her a moment. The visual cue certainly helped, though this time, even Tailmon was around to react. Namely with a wide-eyed stare. Also recognizing the wings in her own context, and turning to Hikari in question.

"Oh. Right." Bowing her head sheepishly at having momentarily forgotten. "I was just surprised. You looked a little like Angemon. Only more colorful."

Some people knew about the Angel digimon. This person, it seemed, had yet to meet or even hear about him.

"He's Takeru-kun's digimon." She began. "He's what Patamon evolves into when Takeru-kun uses his crest. Just like how Tailmon evolves into Angewomon."

She smiled so brightly as she spoke. Proud of her and her best friend's digimon companions. Thinking of how beautiful they were, how strong they were, and how safe she felt with them around. Always.

She nodded.

"Mmhmm. Just like you."

Hikari often gave off an aura that she was wise beyond her years. Most of the time, it was because of her silence. Those eyes. Always watching, always observing. They tended to hide the fact that...in the end...she was still only eight. With the mind of an eight-year-old, who saw certain connections in the simplest of terms.

Which meant, this time, it was her turn to elaborate what she meant:

"You transformed too. You grew wings."

...and that was all. The type of transformation didn't need to be the same, and he didn't even need to possess the same forms. Just the wings alone were enough, in her mind, to warrant such a comparison.

You're welcome.

"Well...no, I guess not completely the same thing. Angemon and Angewomon's wings are white."

She wanted to ask why his were so colorful. Very much. But...she was worried it would have sounded too rude.

Her head bowed. A child having been caught. Still...since he did ask...

"I...wanted to know why your wings look like they do. If...you want to tell me."

She nodded.

Yup. That was all. Curiosity about the wings. What made them different. Where they came from. Why he had them.

Her head tilted slightly to one side. Confused.

"You mean...you don't?"

If he wanted an in-depth, scientific response? Then, yeah, it would be just as hard to answer.

But for Hikari?

"Because Okaasan's eyes do. And Oniichan's." Her father's eyes were much darker, so while hers and her mothers weren't identical shades of brown, they were close enough to warrant comparison. "Isn't that why all people's eyes look like that?"

"You're a bird?"

Or a...bird-like creature; after digimon, she would have been willing to believe most anything if the physical evidence were right in front of her.

She heard the edge, but didn't understand where it was coming from. Had she...offended him? Was calling him a bird somehow offensive where he came from? If it was, she hadn't known and would apologize immediately.

"Because you seem interesting. Just like Tailmon." She glanced down at her companion, who was also looking at her curiously. Wondering where Hikari's interest came from. The young girl...she'd been interested in Tailmon as well. Even before they knew the bond connecting them. "She seemed interesting when we met, too."

"Digimon. She's a digimon. Digital Monster." She initially clarified. "And that's okay. I'm not a digimon, either. But...you don't have to be the same to get along, right?"

Sure, it had been the similarities that initially drew her in. But there was more to it than that. Just like there was more to Tailmon than white fur, yellow gloves, and strange ring on the end of her tail. (...especially the ring.)
