One Of Those Things You Gotta Feel To Be True

“Oh hi,” Phil started. His wings twitched behind his back, feathers puffing up, and Techno’s eyes were drawn to the movement. “You missed supper,” Phil continued, Techno’s gaze snapping back to his face. “So I thought I’d check and make sure everythin’ was okay.”Phil was allowed to ask that, Techno decided, blinking at him. Anyone else he would say “fine” and slam the door in their face, but his teammate was allowed to ask. Among other things—Techno’s eyes were drawn to the twitching wings on his back once again—he got it. “Eh,” Techno said, shrugging slightly. “I’m gettin’ along. Could be worse.” He raised his eyebrows. “I could be workin’ on Willow squad, didn’t they have to do a PR video thing?”“Ugh,” Phil said, making a face. “I know they didn’t have to respond to incursions, but I think I’d prefer the fuckin’ battle. At least if I’m fightin’ a monster I get the chance to die, with the PR tour you have to answer fuckin’ politician questions an’ shit. Gimmie a fucked-up lizard who’s tryin’ to eat me any day.”Or: Emduo are superheroes. This isn't a good thing. But at least they have each other.
