Don't scratch at them, doofus.

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

But they itch, Jaf.

I'm not really... scratching. Rubbing. I'm rubbing them.

I've got feathers coming in. [This is said with a fair amount of wonderment.]

[unfamiliar-jaf.livejournal.com]

Raz ever give you something to put in a bath to help the itchies? You might need it. Ain't it a bitch, regrowing?

[Jaf's not shocked...but yeah, he's proud and grinning.]

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he did, and it helps.

[He can't get over this.] I never thought...

I've got feathers growing in.

[unfamiliar-jaf.livejournal.com]

Again.

[He chuckles, offering Kemi a hug.]

You deserve your wings, bro.

*wry smile*

Can I see now?

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

I haven't even seen. But sure. [He unbuttons his shirt and pulls it off. Soft, fluffy feathers are sprouting at the bases of his wings, and the snapped-off bones are covered with flesh and have lengthened. The scarring is still horrific and probably always will be, but... the wings are growing back. Not that he's seen any of this. He stopped using the two-mirrors trick after the first time he looked at it.]

What do you think?

[halfthemistake.livejournal.com]

*he's used to ugly scars on himself, honestly.*

... They're coming back.

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

[Kemi sits down, rather suddenly, since his legs have decided they're not going to hold him up anymore.] I never thought. Never expected.

Dad is good.

[adversarially.livejournal.com]

Awwww. That's real fuckin' sweet, cupcake.

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

[Kemi recoils violently and turns to face Shai, protecting his back.] Well. Meeting you is a horrifying surprise. Let's not do it again real soon.

[adversarially.livejournal.com]

You're hurting me here, princess. You're hurting your big brother right in his heart. [Shai doesn't move closer. He just smiles with those awful, awful shark's teeth.]

[dogeat-underdog.livejournal.com]

Oh, I wasn't aware that said big brother actually had a heart. At least, not one that belonged to him. [Kemi is looking around frantically for an out. He tries a Move and finds he can't. So that's awesome.] Hearts you've eaten don't count. [Backing up now.]
