He blinked at the sudden move. Had Duo just ruffled his hair? "Perhaps," he half-agreed, wrinkling his nose slightly at the term. "I'm not an angel, Duo. Just a human being with wings."
Near thought it was a strange request, but given the way Duo had spoken now and just moments before, maybe he intended to jump to the water, or anything of the sort. If that weren't the case, he didn't know why he would make such a request. Shrugging slightly, Near did as Duo asked, waiting for whatever reaction he would have next.
