Huh.

[It's a little difficult to record like this since he doesn't exactly have any opposable thumbs right now, but Axel still manages easily enough by punching in the right buttons... with his beak.]

There. Geez...

[Shortly after a face appears in front of the screen... and it appears to be very much bird-like. Another peck before the large bird scoots away, wings spread and tail fanned out awkwardly as he tries his best not to accidentally step on it.]

Well, at least this time around I can actually talk.

[Being a cheetah had been cool for a while, sure, but there's something about this change which excites Axel even more. Puffing up his feathers, he seems to grin at the communicator before he struts and turns a bit to try and get a better look at his tail feathers. Ooh.]

A bit flashy... but I think I can get behind this just fine. I--

[Suddenly as he opens his beak a jet of hot fire leaves his mouth. Startled, Axel scrambles back, falling over so ungracefully onto his back.]

--Ow!

I'm certain you would. [Weirdo.] It sounds as though you have enough problems to worry about besides me and rabbits.

Well, seein' you with a puffy cottontail would be pretty cool, you know. ... Unless you've got one of those right now.

[Don't mind him; he'll just be trying to walk over to see if he can steal a peek at your ass.]

But you know, all things considered, I could be worse off than this. At least I can talk this time.

[Axel, stop grasping for excuses to look at his ass. Saix very pointedly moves his sitting position so that his back is against the little corner of his side of the couch, facing Axel more. More weird rabbit noises.]

How unfortunate for the rest of us.

[If you want him to stop grasping for excuses, then at least let him grasp dat ass.

Aha. He's being awfully evasive again. The feathers atop Axel's head start to stick up as curiosity once again sets in.]

I am a bird, though. What did you expect?

[Peering still]

... So did you get a cottontail?

Something less annoying.

[His ears seem to quiver, but they stay just as flat as ever. Saix's eyes narrow.]

Why so much interest in my anatomy?

[He croons, wings flapping as he attempts to fly and land on the backrest of the couch. Nope, he's not giving up.]

I just wanna know. Is that so wrong? Come on. It's probably really adorable and I'm missing out on it.

[Axel is a prime example of why Saix does not own birds. He swats at him, growling some more.]

It's underneath my coat and my pants, it would take too much effort to show you.

Then take off your coat and pants. Come on! You do it every day, don't you?

[Snicker]

...So basically you want me to strip. Why don't you just use your imagination?

It's not as fun as seeing the real thing.

[He hops over, his tail getting in Saix's face as he does, so he can peck and tug at Saix's hood.]

Geez, you shouldn't even be wearing this thing anyway.

You're spoiled- Axel!

[Angry rabbit noises!!! He leans away from that intrusive beak, swatting at Axel even more.]

Why not?

[Axel puffs out his chest then beats his wings as Saïx so rudely swats at him.]

It's not like you really need it for anything, right?

[Besides traveling the corridors, but he's not doing that now!]

[BIRD NO. Saix swats at Axel even more while New Moon starts to bark in excitement. Doge has no idea what is happening but it looks fun.]

I might! Axel, stop that!

[Axel flaps just a little more before he takes off into the air with a cheerful laugh.]

I guess I'll just have to take your word for it, huh.

[Another laugh... which causes a small flicker of fire to escape his mouth. Oops. At least he hasn't burned anything.]

[Keep laughing, and Saix will be having chicken for dinner. He watches him with narrowed eyes, reclinging against the couch.]

You can see my ears well enough, I don't know why you need to see anything else.

[Bunnies aren't supposed to eat chicken. :c]

Because it'll complete the image.

[He flaps his wings as he circles gracefully in the air and even somersaults since he has some space to do so.]

[This bunny will.]

You're ridiculous. I'd just get nothing but mocking from you if I did that, it's hardly worth the effort. Now get down from there, you look like a fool.

[Freak.]

I told you before; I won't mock you, idiot.

[Axel stops flying around and performing his beautiful aerial dances, however, though he doesn't land just yet. He kind of likes flying.]

Now you're just being mean. I bet I look super awesome.

[Rude.]

Hmph. Is that so?

[Oh good, he's no longer making it a potential fire hazard in Saix's own home. Good.]

Don't give yourself too much credit.

[Axel rolls his eyes then swoops down so he can perch beside Saix on the couch again.]

I'm a giant bird with cool feathers and I can breathe fire. How is that not awesome?

They're simply too much. It's overly flashy, just as usual.

You're so picky.

[Sigh and he sits down... or at least tries to without bunching up his tail feathers. Tucking his feet under him and with his wings at his sides, Axel makes himself nice and cozy, even makes a cooing noise once he is.]

You're a show off.

[He watches as Axel adjusts himself and gives a small shake of his head. Birds.]

So, are you satisfied with your check up?

So I'm proud of some of the things I can do. Is it so wrong to want to show that off?

[Axel looks up at Saix again, head tilted.]

Mm, I guess. Didn't get to see a cottontail, but hey. Beggars can't be choosers.

You get cocky.

[A quiet sigh.]

Good. You always fuss too much. You have a mother hen complex.
