Adrien slammed the door on his way into the car. "Whatcha doing?" He asked, tilting his head towards Mikhail's phone. He looked like he was searching for something, maybe new furniture?

Mikhail squeaked in surprise when he heard the door slam shut, glancing at Adrien. "Oh, nothing, just looking around for jobs," He answered, smiling at Adrien.

Adrien hummed in response as he turned the radio back on. He couldn't really have a job- hello heart condition that forces you to take off weeks at a time!- but he did help people program websites which got him enough money to survive. "What kind of jobs are you looking for?"

Mikhail put his phone away and glanced at Adrien. "Nothing specific, something that will help me survive," He answered.

Adrien let out a small laugh. "Isn't that the way life is. I can't really get a normal job so I feel the struggle for money."

"If I get hired somewhere I can ask them and see if they can hire you too," Mikhail offered. "Only if you want me to ask," He quickly added.

Adrien laughed and shook his head. "Nah, I'd just end up getting fired. I have a half job that's keeping me afloat right now, so you don't need to worry. I might be able to hook you up if you're fairly good at coding."

"It's fine, I'm not that good at coding. I'm still trying to learn," Mikhail replied, a small smile on his face.

"Dang it. Sorry, I can't help you then," Adrien apologized. "Want to get back to getting to know each other?"

"It's fine and sure!" Mikhail replied.

"Great. Great," Adrien said, stalling until he could come up with a good question. "Hey, uh, You know I'm a selkie, what are you? Not that you have to tell me or anything!" Adrien rushed to explain, a light blush coloring his cheeks. "It just feels like pertinent information!"

"It's fine. By the way, I'm a fallen angel if you were curious," Mikhail answered with a slight laugh.

"Oh, I've never met a fallen angel before. What's that like?" It was an odd question, but Adrien was curious now. Was it like being an actual angel? Did Mikhail do something that caused him to fall? Did he have wings? Or a halo? A connection to god? Or would those have been taken away?

"What do you specifically want to know about?" Mikhail asked, the small smile still on his face.

"Do you have wings?" He asked, figuring it was the least offensive question he could ask. He should probably keep the questions like 'did you do something so bad you got kicked out of heaven?' bottled up until he'd known the guy for a few months.

"Yep, I can show them to you when we make it to our dorm," He answered. "Only if you want me to though," He quickly added.

Adrien was a little surprised but also strangely honored. "Yeah. That'd be…really cool," He said softly. They arrived at the dorm a few minutes later. Adrien stepped out of the car and slammed his door shut, hurrying inside once he made sure Mikhail was following him.

Mikhail chuckled at Adrien's reaction and he glanced out the window at the sky. After they made it to the dorm, Mikhail stepped out the car and slammed the door shut, following Adrien towards the dorm.

Adrien plopped down on the couch, crossing his legs so Mikhail could stand in front of him. "Can you show me your wings now?" Adrien asked shyly, hoping he wasn't being overeager or anything. He'd just never known anything with angel wings before and it seemed really cool.

Mikhail chuckled, again, as he stood in front of Adrien and looked around to see if he had enough space. "Sure," He answered, moving a bit farther back since his wings were big. He quietly snapped his fingers which made his white wings appear, they were much bigger than him so he looked much tinier when his wings appeared.

Adrien gasped in wonder when Mikhail unfurled his wings. They were huge and fluffy and really cool. He reached a hand out and brushed it over the left wing in wonder, marveling at how soft the feathers felt under his fingers. He then abruptly pulled his hand back, realizing that was probably an invasion of privacy. He wouldn't want people touching his sealskin so he shouldn't touch Mikhail's wings. "Sorry!"

Mikhail chuckled, "It's fine, you can touch them if you want," He replied. He was praying to all the gods he knew, hoping Adrien wouldn't notice the cuts on his wings from when he tried to cut them off.
