☆ HUNG PICTURES OF PATRON SAINTS UP ON MY WALL TO REMIND ME THAT I AM A FOOL. TELL ME WHERE I CAME FROM, WHAT I WILL ALWAYS BE: JUST A SPOILED LITTLE KID WHO WENT TO CATHOLIC SCHOOL —

It wasn't really surprising for Aurum, being greeted by a negative reaction from Evarhi. Although he hadn't seen much of the boy just yet, their first encounter hadn't exactly made a stellar impression. Yes, perhaps Beck had been a little reckless in scaring the kid his first day in, but Evarhi didn't need to react with violence. It didn't matter that Beck hadn't been hurt thanks to his status as a poltergeist – the intent had certainly been there. Despite this, Aurum also knew that Evarhi was merely a boy, and he probably had a lot of growing to do. Because of this, he chose not to be too harsh on him, even now. Instead of responding with his own hostility when Evarhi opened the door, Aurum just smiled, his one blue eye twinkling. Head tilting to one side, the lion explained quickly, "Evarhi, I'm glad that I managed to catch you. I had no idea where else to look if you weren't here." He then raised one of his large gold and auburn wings up before he continued, demonstrating what his point in coming had been, "Anyways, the reason I'm here is for you. I was wondering if anybody had taught you how to fly yet. And if not... I thought maybe I could help out. I know our wings aren't exactly the same, but the same basic principles are still there." He wasn't yet sure if Evarhi was reckless enough to reject his teachings and then go out and try to learn on his own, but he could only hope not. Aurum had spent a long period of his life learning to fly on his own, since his wings had developed later in life, and it hadn't been an overly pleasant experience.
