If Hudson were there, he would have been shaking his grey old head and calling Broadway a trusting fool, likely to get killed the first time his trust was misplaced. If Brooklyn or Lexington were there, Broadway was pretty sure he could have talked them into coming along, especially Lex, with promises of futuristic alien technology lessons from the mysterious woman from the future ( ... )

It was a fast moment--a loud, swooping sound with a large, swooping shape so quickly that it sent Kei's hair flying. She gasped, whirling around and clutching the rail with one hand while the other impulsively hovered at her hip where (oh, damn) the coat concealed her weapon.

But it--he?--did nothing. No roaring, no claw-waving, no spitting horrible substances...Just...

Ahoy.

She blinked. It was a funny moment of silence, in retrospect.

"Ah," she started, still a little dumbfounded. "Hello?" Big, kind of greenish, wings...

Oh.

Wings. Her face flickered with familiarity, but it was always better to be safe than sorry.

"Broadway?"

She didn't look quite as pleased to see him as he'd hoped.

"Yeah, it's me," he smiled down at her awkwardly, trying not to seem threatening but really having no idea how best to do that. How was he supposed to know what humans found threatening? He nodded to her fist where it gripped the railing like a vice. "Relax. I'm not going to throw you off the roof or anything. Promise."

He was blowing it. She was scared and it was blowing it. He had to say something else... something to make her understand.

"I'm a gargoyle," he explained, as if everyone knew that gargoyles were the least offensive creatures in the world that cried healing tears and barfed up rainbows. "Are you... uhm, is that gonna be okay?"

He bit his lip expectantly, hoping she didn't scream, faint, or shoot him in the head.

Kei exhaled half the breath she'd caught at the confirmation, still quite shaken up by the sudden arrival. Her mouth twitched a little into an almost-smile at his assurance, exhaling the rest of that breath with a shaky chuckle. Oh, my. Her laugh steadied as she combed a hand through her hair--beats pinching one's self awake.

"Oh...yes," she assured, taking another breath and exhaling her frightened moment out. "I just had no idea what to expect, and..." Well, it was a pretty sudden arrival. No matter. That was done. She stepped forward, extending a hand.

"It's an honor, Broadway."
