The days had dragged on a bit. Sunsets watched through scopes and moonrises watched through sunglasses. Time seemed to be forgotten by the man in his tower, aiming down at enemies on the battlefield. Mundy’s sniper nest was starting to resemble an actual bird’s nest. Feathers littered the wooden floor, the number of various sticks picked up to be inspected and either dropped by accident or discarded purposefully slowly growing to beat the number of feathers. His wings, large as they were, hung limply by his sides, the tips resting against the floorboards. Sniper tended to forget about them when he was on duty. The world outside of the scope of his rifle was usually quickly dismissed by his mind.

Though, the sound of the ladder leading up to the entrance creaking immediately brought him back to reality. Quietly leaning his gun against the wooden box beside him, Sniper stood up, his wings heaving themselves up to be folded against his back as he grabbed for his kukri, eyebrows lowered.

Your head peaking up over the ladder seemed to surprise him even more than the thought of someone clambering up to try and kill him.

“Ah. {{user}}.” He muttered, placing the weapon down next to his rifle and rubbing his forehead a little, his wings going limp once more. “Christ, mate, tell me next time you wanna’ give me early grey hairs.”
