Ash stepped inside not noticing it being a mess really, he didn't mind either. His apartment was probably messy also so it wasn't that bad. Ash thought about they could talk about, he had no idea what to say or do at this point.

Firiko slipped in and shut the door, completely clueless on what to do next. "Sooo…." he started off, completely unsure of what to do..

"Yep, um… So what color do you like?" he mentally punched himself for the stupidity of that question, it didn't matter what Firiko's favorite color was. Why would color matter. Why was he so awkward. Why did all ideas of conversation slip away from him.

"Uhm.. green, you?" he asked, grateful for something to talk about.

"Blue…" He said and nodded.

Firiko nodded, "Uhm… favourite food?" he asked.

"Chocolate, what about you?"

"Strawberries…" said Firiko.

He nodded, "Um What do you do as a job?"

"I work with the flight patrol…" he said, his tone holding a hint of pride.

"That's cool, I just work at some grocery store…"

"Hey, grocery stores are cool too.." said Firiko, "Honestly the only reason I'm on flight patrol is because of my wings… they kinda make it awkward to work anywhere else.."

"Yeah but you must like being on the flight patrol, i bet even if you could work any job without awkwardness you would still wish to be on the flight patrol."

"Actually no… most of the other's in my wing would say yes, but not me…" he said, "Honestly in my case it's a lot of pressure to stay at my best, since I'm one of the most agile feathered flyers…"

"oh, well I bet you are still amazing at flying. Also if your pressured just ignore them." Ash said to him and smiled reassuringly.

"Ha ha I wish I could ignore it.." said Firiko, laughing, "They have me on a wing of mainly scale-wing flyers, so I have to be at my best just to keep up"

"Well it sounds that they are trying to set you up for failular."

"They're not…" said Firiko, "They cut me more slack than the scale wings, by they do know I can keep up, and they expect you to stay at your best." he sighed, "It's not that I can't keep up, it's more the fact that I can, see, they keep trying to get the feather wings up to my standard, but then it backfires on me cause they're all asking for lessons.."

"Oh, so they are putting tons of pressure on you to help and succeed and you're not sure if you can help?"

"Kinda" said Firiko, "It's a little hard to explain, but that's basically it.." he sighed, "Though I think I'd much rather be a gardener.."

"Gardening is cool too…. Though I kill all plants I grow." Ash said and looked down.

Firiko gave him a curious look, "what have you tried growing?" he asked.

"Flowers… And also cucumbers." He replied remembering the flowers.

"Doesn't sound like somthing that's very easy to kill, unless of course you drowned them.." mused Firiko, "Not that I'm saying you did anything wrong, sometimes plants are just destined to die.

"None of my flowers ever flowered they only had leaves and my attempt at cucumbers died from the start…" Ash replied.
