Sixth Floor Common Room, Wednesday Evening [WARREN'S BIRTHDAY PARTY!]

Through some miracle of timing, Bobby had actually managed to get everything for Warren's party set up earlier before heading off to Karla's.

Now, though, it was Warren's turn. Hopefully people would still have room for even more food after a BBQ, because the amount of food two brilliant bakers plus one person with access to a very good catering service was impressive.

At least people could work all those excess calories off in the ball pit?

"I don't know, I've never met anyone with wings until arriving here," Bod answered, giving Warren a little smile. "Have you ever clocked how fast you can fly?"

"Not yet," Warren admitted. "I keep meaning to, but I haven't exactly gotten my hands on a radar kit or anything. And while I'm up there, I always seem to forget that that's something I should know. You never know when it might come in handy, right?"

"You could always race something?" Bod suggested. "A bird, perhaps? And then, if someone asks, you can say you're faster than a bird."

Warren huffed out a laugh at that. "I'm faster than a small flock of angry flamingos," he offered. "I already know that much."

He could fly faster scared than they could angry. Which was always good to know.

"You've raced a small flock of angry flamingos." Bod didn't make that question. "Why were they angry?"

"If I knew that," Warren sighed, "they probably wouldn't have been angry to start with. Kate and I wanted to get closer, to get a better look. I guess maybe we got a little too close?"

Or else the birds wanted their coffee. You never could be sure, around here.

"I guess the better question is was she faster than a flock of angry flamingos?" Bod wondered.
wwiii: (Serious Something)

"She was," Warren replied, "after I grabbed her and took off."

Thus scaring the daylights out of her, yes.

"Remind me to avoid angry flamingos since I can't fly," Bod said, eyebrows going up. "Was that here on the island?"
wwiii: (Neutral)

"Yeah. I guess there are a few of them down by the pond in the park? I haven't really been back around there, since."

When the residents of the duck pond wanted you dead, it was a good indication that there was a bad place to hang out.

"Maybe they were just jealous of your wings," Bod decided. "Not everyone can have a pair quite like that."
