[Billy will be...somewhere between fascinated, worried, and irritated. They take up most of the hall, make it nigh-impossible to wear a shirt (no halters for guys), and the pain still twinges now and then. How's he supposed to squeeze into tight spots for work like this? Then again, it's a unique opportunity...]
((Feel free to find him anywhere//he's probably just sprouted them and will be confused.))
"I hope not," Billy muttered, his feathers ruffling at the thought of it---no, he needed to gain more conscious control of that. "It'll be inconvenient in battle---or at least, the style of combat I'm used to."
He'd have to check on everyone else soon, but it was going to be hard to navigate the halls like this. "I'm still working on figuring out where they came from."
Zouichi isn't actually enjoying this very much. Sure, he can fly with these things, but they also made him a glaring target. And until he could figure out how to tuck them backward correctly, they were really just... not very aerodynamic.

[Someone's huffing, trying to keep her new wings down, but they keep flitting out in anger.]
Hey, could whichever of y'all's responsible for this do a pony a favor and show yourselves? I ain't a pegasus pony, I don't need these flapping around!
Applejack thought that was nice, really---she just found herself wobbling, rolling, and getting stuck in some tree branches. Phew, at least she wasn't tumbling about so much now.
"I'm not supposed to be one! Where I come from, we've got plenty of pegasus ponies, but I'm an earth pony!"
She sure didn't look like one now, though. More than anything, she wanted out of there.

Hei's first thought is that these wings are going to force him to drastically change his fighting style. He doesn't care for flight, and what with how unwieldy and obvious they are, Hei figures they'd be more of a liability than anything else.
His expression seems somewhat more sullen than usual.
Oh yeah, blame me. XDsakurasilverJuly 15 2011, 21:38:07 UTC
No wings for her yet, if at all. Which is a lucky thing when Yin would be bumping into things left and right.
Which is what she does now, but something--either the smell of him or the cadence of his breathing, something--brings a realization. The feathers she feels are new though, and she strokes one, expression just as blank as ever.
Well. It *is* your fault. :3contractunpaidJuly 15 2011, 21:45:02 UTC
The sound of her voice does more to shock him than anything else he's run into on board this ship thus far. Hei had been searching, looking, trying desperately to find her, and here she is, standing right behind him.
He stops the urge to whirl around and instead does so carefully, so as to not whip Yin in the face with his new wings. Hei places his hands on her shoulders as soon as he's facing her though.

"You too, huh? This isn't a new Ranger bonus trend is it?"

"They're too flimsy to be practical for anything really. It's like a bigger version of the scarf I'd wear for my old costume."
"Think it's GLADOS latest idea of a joke? Hope it's not a contagion again."

Not to mention the clothing situation.
Aaaand now he's wedged in a doorway. Great.

"Need some help there, buddy?"

Argh, it was no use. What did he do to deserve this?!

Seraphiel, did you merge with me or something?

Whoa. Is that another new power, Hoshi?

N-No, and they're rubbing against everything. It's annoying!

I can imagine it would be---sudden extra limbs taking up space.
[But they also have a certain aesthetic appeal, he thinks privately.]
How sensitive are they? Does it hurt?

"Hei."
It's almost a question.

"Yin."
She's here. She's real. She has to be.

Yin pokes a finger in one side of her mouth. It's something like a half-smile.
"Hei."
The tone now is questioning, truly.
"Wings?"
