Icarus stared down at her with his tired, stony eyes and shrugged, his postured slumped, "Sure, sure." He said in an unconcerned manner. And even though problem seemed to be resolved Icarus did not take his cold eyes off the girl.

Pearl watched the boy warily. "So what are you doing here anyway? You like to read?" Her face brightened at the thought of having a active book talk the boy.
"Eh..." Icarus thought for a moment, "Not particularly... But I have read some books..." He answered, in a very unconcerned manner, he dark eyes droopy and tired, but still somehow smart. The only movement made by the tired, apathetic hybrid was the slight shifting if his metallic wings. Then after a moment he asked slowly, "... Hey... What's your name?"
"Pearl." She said, purposly not giving her last name so her couldn't search up her history in the school files. Too much pain was there. Too much. "What's your name?" She asked back.
Icarus hesitated for a moment, staring down at her. Then he said simply, "Icarus." This was his only name, he had no second or other name to give. Icarus knew the story of his Greek namesake very well, and in a way he wondered if they would share the same end, after all they shared the same past.
She nodded. "Like the greek myth?" She asked, hesitantly.
Icarus was silent once more before saying in his tired, low voice, "Maybe." Then he stretched out his cold, steel and copper wings and leapt dropped down from the top of the bookcase using his wings to catch his fall. "He and I are alike." He added quietly and coldly. Then he reached for a certain book on the bookcase opposite to the one he'd been sitting upon.
