[ he doesn't know what it means but it hits him what it was, and he's giving nero a LOOK that shows UTTER DISAPPOINTMENT, before he's turning on his heel to leave.
[Honest to god he can't help it- Vergil makes that face at him and he actually laughs. Vergil really does make this too easy.
Still, he does notice that his father's turned and already leaving. Nox goes back to Red Queen and picks her back up, hoisting her on his back again before turning-]
[ WHO SAID YOU COULD PICK HIM UP AGAIN?? hE WAS PERFECTLY CONTENT WITH WALKING AND NOW THIS IS HAPPENING
he makes SUCH a disgruntled sound in the back of his throat as he tries to grab at Nero--turn his head to make sure he didn't BANG it on the doorway as he's scooped up and away from the abandoned old fight club building--tilting his head back with an exasperated noise. ]
Sei pazzo??! [ he snaps, forgetting himself for a moment. Reel it in, Vergil. ] --What if you had dropped me that time! Give a man some warning, fool!
The sheer surprise and also anger at Nox's actions actually makes him smile wide, finding his father's swapping to Italian so much more amusing.]
Trust me, I wouldn't. Not for this. [Whether it's answering if he wouldn't have dropped Vergil or given him a warning? Who knows!] You'll be home sooner this way anyway, and then I'll be out of your hair for the rest of the night.
[ struggling in mid-air is a poor-ass idea so he doesn't but that doesn't mean he's HAPPY about this, maybe he WANTED to walk and
god the smile on nero's face is almost infuriating. ]
What do you mean 'not for this?' Grabbing someone and flying off with them without warning absolutely requires SOME form of warning...![ ...he's going to just resign to this. letting himself curl up and deal with this. ]
You are truly just going to drop me off at the Auguries and walk off, then. [ ... a small scoff. ] Fine. I need a glass of wine after all of this, anyhow.
[Look, maybe this is gonna end up in payback in some way, but god if this isn't fucking funny as hell. It's... odd to say he's missed this, as he doesn't have specific memories of when he'd do this with Vergil, just more of a solid feeling and vibe overall.]
Yeah, 'not for this.' [You are the LEAST helpful, Nox.] Look, I've spent a whole year flying, and trust me when I say this stuff is literally instinctual.
[A beat, and he actually laughs.] Yeah. I figure you've had enough excitement for a night. Unless you want me to cause more trouble.
[Would he? Absolutely, he'd rather Nox act like a NORMAL PERSON about this. But normal is boring, so Vergil gets to suffer. The fly back isn't that rough, so Nox wastes no time getting his father back to the shop, setting him down easy.]
There. See? No problems.
[YOU'RE GONNA EITHER KILL THIS MAN OR HE'S GOING TO KILL YOU.]
[ it'll be so sudden and out of nowhere, nero's defences won't stand a chance.
By the time he gets down from the air, he does feel a little frazzled. Human beings weren't meant for long-distance flights like that, and he honestly feels a little light-headed.
But somehow, the experience wasn't... terrible.
He'll adjust his hair, and shoot a quiet, sharp glance over at Nero. ]
...No. I suppose you are right. There are no problems.
...
I suppose I should even be thanking you for taking time out of your day to show me your blade.
[ one day when he's got his powers back, man, you're getting tossed around ]

Sorry, did you think he was just gonna let you walk home after he brought you here?]
Alley-oop! You're welcome.

Be that as it may, instinct or not, you still ought give warning, you insufferable brat.
[ hggggh. He'll settle, anyway, after a moment, not because he enjoys flying but because he just doesn't want to be dropped!!!!!!! ]
...Avoid it. Nix it. I am more than done for the night.
