"What, the wings?" Almost as if in response, the muscles twitched underneath his shirt. There were many times when he wished he still had them; hell, he was working back towards his angelic status, he always wished he had them. Not now, though. Not for a long time, and he knew it. He still had a lot of redeeming to do before they even began to look less... well, scraggly and gross.

"We'll see to this whole... strengths and weaknesses thing, hm?" Despite being partnered with him, he wasn't quite letting his guard down yet. Especially not at work. Something about a professional work environment and all that.

With the suggestion of his parting, he just shrugged and nodded towards the door. "Alright, alright. Escape me, then." He lead Angelo back into the main hallway. It was starting to get a bit darker out and the setting sun was casting long shadows over all his furniture. The way his apartment was decorated, in that old French style, made the whole place looked rather... dated. Almost like a wishful painting.

"Yeah, the wings." He'd thought that mostly went without saying. He trailed behind Tybalt, zigging into the kitchen to retrieve his bag and jacket, pulling it on by the doorway.

"This was... well, honestly, really nice. You're a great chef, and you definitely know how to do the first date thing." He resisted the urge to make a joke about hoping that he'd know how to do the second date just as well, opting to give him a little smile.

Ahh, now there was the rub. Did he go for it? Did he risk embarrassing himself by going in for a goodnight kiss at the end of a solid first date?

Ah, well, wasn't life all about taking stupid risks? He decided not to let himself hesitate, bending down slightly to go in for a slow kiss.

Part of him was expecting Angelo to just... what, say goodbye and leave? He really shouldn't have, seeing Angelo actually go on a date and all. The flowers still sat all half-droopy on the table, and he'd keep them for a while. Hell, he might even dry them if he were so inclined. That'd be cute, now wouldn't it?

So the other part of his brain just accepted it when Angelo leaned in. Kisses on first dates weren't so strange, were they? Besides, he knew him well enough. Tybalt leaned up against him, pressing his lips to Angelo's without hesitation.

A hand wandered up, brushing against his chest with the intent of resting on his shoulder. But Tybalt paused when he caught the briefest glimpse of a high vantage point, probably some sort of flat roof, looking down towards the building across the street.

There was a crack in one of the windows leading to a bullet hole. Had he shot through the glass? There was a pause before Tybalt pulled back, deciding he wasn't intrigued enough to see more. There probably wasn't any more to begin with.

What a damper on such a nice date.

"Good night." He muttered, though his tone shifted slightly.

Ahhh, it had been a long time since he'd had a nice kiss like this. Too long since his last date, and longer still since he'd gotten a good kiss. His last date had been... overly enthusiastic, to say the least.

He returned the kiss, tender and gentle, and then withdrew when Tybalt did. Not as long as he'd have liked, but it was their first kiss, and he could hardly blame him. If anything, he worried Tybalt hadn't liked it - or that it was too fast for someone who might very well be following a more biblical form of morality. He seemed a bit off, but... ah, well, there was no way to know until the next time they worked together.

"Goodnight, Tybalt." He paused for a second longer and then turned away, heading out into the night, his bag clutched in one hand.
