[ That simple compliment prompts a mix of emotions, all welling up at once — hopeful joy, trepidation, disbelief. Kazuaki clutches at his scarf, bunching it together, and buries his face in it, overcome. It hides the glimmer of tears springing to his eyes for no good reason while he takes several deep breaths before reemerging. ]
You're so nice...!
[ How to return the compliment occupies his thoughts for the next few moments; he looks Francel over. ]
I've never met a bird like you before, but your wings are very pretty, did you know that?
[this is, somehow, even more adorable than the casual pronouncement of nobirdie — francel has to repress yet another violent urge to wrap his arms around the large button quail and cuddle it. he smiles broadly, however, visibly amused by this innocent compliment; he flaps his large white wings.]
Haha! I'm afraid that's because I am not a bird as such — technically speaking, I am a dragon.
[it's strange to think that he can say that so easily now. once upon a time it would have made him sick just to think about turning into a dravanian, but now...]
You may think of me as your fellow bird if you wish, however. I would be most flattered.
