Things are a bit more familiar now. Taking a bit of time to explore has given him experience enough to know how to get to at least some of the more main areas of the mansion. Well, 'more main areas' meaning areas Eiyole cares about. More being where there's food and where there's medical supplies.
Speaking of, that's where he's coming from now; a trip to the medical units and trying to find his way back to the members' rooms. With a canvas satchel strap over his shoulder and under his jacket, packed just enough to avoid suspicion with borrowed supplies, he seems to have taken a wrong turn into a common room. Great. scoffing to himself, he pivots on his heel and turns to head back out, accidentally bumping into some...(thing? someone?) on his way. The feeling took him by surprise, and he spread his wings with a step back, compulsively wiping his now damp sleeve.
"Agh- Watch- Ngh. My bad. Apologies," he settles on a response; a begrudging, half-sincere apology.

Cirrus meandered into the common room, seeming to not have a single care in the world; most likely because they didn't. The only thing that was a problem was finding something to do with all of this time. They had considered taking up some kind of hobby, like crochet or hula-hooping. Well, technically another hobby, but they had recently been informed that watching humans sleep was 'not a real hobby' and something that they should 'stop doing'. Pfft.
In their deep thought, they almost didn't notice when someone that they didn't recognise walked into them and muttered a begrudging apology. Snapping back into reality, they scanned the stranger's greyish-purple face to check whether they really were a stranger and concluded that no, they hadn't seen them before.
"Hello! Are you new?" Not waiting for an answer, they stuck out a translucent hand and grinned widely. "My name is Cirrus!"

Taking what few moments he could to once-over the smaller being before they spoke, he blinked each eye in turn and came to the conclusion that they must literally just be. Made. Of water? Water vapor. Some form of water. Interesting.
"Relatively new," he murmurs, once Cirrus pauses. Eiyole eyes their hand, hesitantly taking it and following their lead in a shake. "I'm Eiyole. It's a pleasure."

Cirrus grinned. "Nice to meet you!" Once the shake was finished, Cirrus's translucent hand became a little more transparent and seemed to phase straight out of Eiyole's. It regained its grey colour just a second later when it was back at their side. Glancing at Eiyole's sleeve, they realized that they had got it all damp. "Oh, oops! Sorry, let me get that." They muttered and tried to wipe the sleeve, but of course it just got more wet. They stepped back and smiled sheepishly. "Oh. Um, I suppose I should have seen that coming."

Eiyole would have grimaced, had he not been focused on and fascinated by the hand leaving his and reforming a moment later. There were so many interesting creatures in this mansion, so many different-- He looked up when the other took a step back. Lifting his arm and watching a few bits of water drip from his sleeve, he, again, wiped at it with his hand, and shook it a bit.
"It's. It's alright, I should probably wash this jacket later anyway." Incredibly surprisingly, not bothering to get annoyed. "Likewise. I take it you've been around here a bit longer then, yes?"

Cirrus smiled brightly at being asked a question. "Mhm! I've been here for a while now." A conflicted look passed over their face and they began muttering quietly to themself into their scarf, the words barely audible. "I mean, most of my life depending on what you consider 'life'... Would that be conciousness or ability to interact with the world? I mean-" They looked back up at Eiyole, the conflicted look gone. "A while! What do you think so far? It doesn't really matter because it's impossible to leave, but hey, who would ever want to, right?"

Admittedly, Eiyole hadn't really focused on that part of it before. Unable to leave. What are the stipulations of that? To what extent can you never leave. Well, this is probably not the best time to focus on it either. Blinking and moving each eye to refocus, he tilts his head to just the side.
"I've certainly been in worse situations," he answers. "It's not bad at all here, no, give that it's a little noisy sometimes. Nothing I can't get used to," he concludes with a shrug.

Cirrus gave Eiyole a cheerful thumbs-up, and their eyes caught on the large wings protruding from his back. Zipping behind him, they closely inspected their interesting new find with no apparent concern for personal space. "Can you actually fly with these? There's not much skin on them, yknow?"

Normally, he might find the intrusion annoying, but honestly right now the attention it making up for it. Eyeing the water-creature, he makes a point of gently shifting his wings and spreading the mentioned skin, or lack thereof, so it's in his range.
"There's false membrane," he points out, poking at the extra space between the wing frames and making sure the near non-existent cells stretch enough to be able to see the colored part give. "That, and energy propulsion. So, yes, I can fly with them."

Cirrus looked fascinated, studying the thin membrane. Standing up abruptly, they closed their eyes like they were concentrated and shapeshifted a temporary, watery pair of identical wings to Eiyole's. They turned their head to look at the replicas, and gave them a few flaps. "These are pretty cool! If I had a physical form, I would totally want these."

He watched in partial amazement as the creature formed a nearly identical pair of wings to his own, torn between being flattered and confused. Blinking as they moved, he spread his own and slowly waved them a few times to demonstrate the differences. There weren't many. Fascinating.
"These ones in particular, yeah? Why's that, I'm sure you could make them look however you like."

"I suppose I could!" Cirrus replied breezily. As their sentence finished the wings transformed into a type that Cirrus had imagined might fit them better. They were watery, more solid than the rest of Cirrus's form and they twirled to show them off to Eiyole. "How about these?"

Eiyole tilted his head just slightly as he took in the view of the smaller's new formed wings, agreeing inwardly that, yes, those certainly fit much, much better. Taking a step back and to the side, he let one eye scan the common room; empty aside from the two of them that were taking up the doorway.
"Much better. Why not take them for a spin? See if they can get you off the ground." This may or may not be his own curiosity to see what exactly the humanoid-shaped-cloud is capable of.

At Eiyole's words Cirrus shot him a quizzical look and lifted themself off the ground just slightly until their eyes were level with the taller cultist. However, the wings were not flapping. "I can fly anyway, though." They smiled sheepishly. They were quite a fan of wings, but only ever really would be able to use them for aesthetic purposes since they didn't even know how you would use wings. Deciding to try it out, they gave the wings a few tentative flaps while dropping their hovering power and immediately fell back onto the floor.

Flight without propulsion. Suppose it's about what he's capable of himself, but still noteworthy. Well. To an extent.
"Fair," he nods. "Well, they still look like they work yeah? They don't necessarily need to hold true."
