Bad at it, huh? Videogames huffs to himself, though he doesn't feel particularly insulted. Whether that's because it's Lemy, and he doesn't like Videogames and that's fine, or just because of his weird apathy, he's not sure, and he doesn't particularly care, either.
"I just haven't done it in a while!" Videogames chirps, tail giving a thrash. The last time was -- sometime with Arrowhead, he thinks. Arrowhead had wanted him to be good at it, because trees, if not safe, were at least a way to buy more time. That had been when he still had wings, but Arrowhead had insisted that he might need a perch, or what if he hurt them?
He'd stopped doing it, after the incident. He couldn't catch himself if he fell.
If he jumped off, would it be like flying again?
Videogames watches, for just a moment, as Lemy attends to a branch. He keeps it subtle -- Lemy didn't like him. It didn't matter if he was apparently distracted, he probably had half an eye on Videogames, and a surefire way of amping up paranoia was by openly watching him. This was literally the last thing he wanted. He makes himself seem busy preparing his jumps, and, once he's content, is prompt to move on, dropping some fruits of his own.
They'll probably be bruised. That's fine.
"Not a lot!" Videogames chirps, cheerful. He'd woken up, and came to Elysium fairly promptly, actually. But Lemy doesn't need to know that. It was quite frankly suspicious to say. He needs a cover. "I got into an accident. Once I was okay, I ended up at Elysium pretty quick," That was ... a bad cover, actually, but the best lies were the ones that were made up of the truth. Sure, that was a long time dedicated to recovery, but the scarring on his back was probably bad enough to cover for something like that, even if it were unrelated, and maybe if he played it up a little more .... The serval's tail sweeps. He could do this. How suspicious was Lemy, he wonders? How much careful manipulation would it take before he dropped his guard, even slightly? ... Alright, so that was a bad word to use, actually. Manipulation -- that's what people called it. He can't remember what Arrowhead had called it, but either way, he'd heavily insisted that it was an invaluable tool. Videogames, for his part, believed him. He always did.
