[ He wraps his stick-like arms around her awkwardly - it's easy enough to. yknow, not injure her with his talons, but the basics of hugging? It might not be rocket science or anything, but the Ring-Spirit also can't remember if he's actually hugged anyone before.
The feathers of his ruff are soft, at least. He rests his head atop hers - while his neck rests on her shoulder... ...Yeah so, that's not a "ruff" so much as he usually keeps his avian hell-neck tucked down. ]
'M mostly heron, so kinda a bird thing...
[ He trails off tiredly and sags against her, using the hug for physical support as much as emotional. ]
...Quick question, how far can you carry me? Walking's not happening.
Of course. I would have gone with goose if you had the chance to pick. Geese are mean.
[ Annie deals with the weight by bracing herself. Due to his quasi-Avian bone structure honestly the Ring Spirit isn't as heavy as Annie would have thought. If they were doing a cheer routine? Annie could easily throw him high up in the air and catch him. ]
My.... back? Is pretty big. You could just straddle the scorpion part back there and hold on like I was giving you a piggyback ride. It wouldn't be a big deal. Arachne can move pretty fast.
[ Annie is still a bit overwhelmed with just how big he is. It's a bit crazy to realize that most people are bigger than her as monsters. ]
I guess you'd have to really settle in back there and I'd have to keep my tail up high, but it could work. I could get you back to Peace's house if you're still there?
