Frank might have freaked out more if he hadn't already figured out he now existed in a world where all kinds of shit was 'normal'. Guys in iron suits who flew around cities blowing shit apart, guys who grew to the size of a damn bus, or shrunk down to the size of a flea. Guys who ran around calling themselves the God of Thunder and were taken seriously because of a giant hammer that called lightning. Women who could punch a hole through a cement wall and men who were literally indestructible. A world where a kid had spider powers and mutants weren't just some weird but ultimately useless thing you learned about in science class.

In the grand scheme of things, a kid who had a set of wings on his back was just another shock story on the news. So he just gave him a bland look, taking in kid and feathers, and grunted in acceptance before getting back to his surveillance.

"Crows caw. They don't say 'caw'. So what are you, one of those x-guys?"

This one's a bit AU, but essentially still 'I can feel colors with my fingers' Iggy

"Nope. Been tested and everything." This was, as point of fact, true, at least in his case there was no X-Gene present, he didn't know about the rest of the Flock, as he hadn't had extensive contact with them in recent years, something to keep them all safe.

"And I stand by what I said, some crows do, there's a pair of them near my building that do." He shrugged, scratching the back of his neck before squinting skyward -not that he could see anything there, it was just habit- as if he were thinking over encounters with the pair, "Honestly I'm pretty sure they're mocking me, but they're definitely saying it, not just crowing."

woo! any Iggy is good Iggy

"You hear what you hear, I guess," he rumbles in something like a conversational tone, eyes still trained on the building across the way; the kid's probably not much of a threat, no reason to stare him down right now unless he starts getting curious.

"Probably just jealous you got bigger wings," he adds dryly.

[blindbirdboy]

"Could be." He shrugged one shoulder, "Might be they're just trying to figure out what the hell this huge fuck-off owl is doing out during the day, and where my tail is so they can pull it."

A quiet snort, "Y'know, crows." It was entirely possible, even probable, that he didn't know, considering that most people didn't, not the same way a person who was technically related to the things would.
