"Avast me hearties! Take that and that. Leave Hook to me boys!" Peter called as he ran down the hallway brandishing his sword at imaginary foes. He came to the stairs and slung himself over the banister to slide down with a whoop and a holler, landing flat on his back with an "oof" when he hit the bottom.
He moved to get up when his eyes focused onto the man hanging from the ceiling. A man dropping something. He rolled. "Hey! Pirates can't fly!" he shouted though he wasn't quite mad or even on guard yet. The man was hanging from the ceiling!!
[OOC I thought about passing this one up... but Peter Pan can't just watch someone dangle from a chandelier without stopping]
The initial shouting got Alec's attention and he turned to watch the slide down the banister. Huh. Kids here. Weird. It did stop him from his methodical destruction of the chandelier, though. Even Alec knew it wasn't good form to randomly injure children. (If for no other reason than it made them cry and crying was annoying. Ergo, no injuring them.)
"It's been my experience that pirates can do whatever they want," he answered, peering down at the kid. "Plus, I didn't fly. I jumped."
"But pirates are adults, and adults have forgotten how to fly. Only kids can fly!" He announced standing proudly. He looked confused when the man said he jumped. "But... no one can jump that high. Not even Tigerlilly and she's a good jumper. Well the mermaids can... are you a mermaid? No you don't have fins... How did you jump that high?"
"Technically, I'm an adult." Not that anyone who knew him would vouch for that. "But, only technically. And I'm not entirely human, so I can jump that high. Why? Wanna see?" The chance to show off always appealed to his vanity. What? He was awesome. Everyone should know!
