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?"

"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.

"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."
