[ It is, indeed, a hearty beard (and perhaps going a number of days out here without the means nor the time to see to much in the way of personal grooming have made it that little bit heartier).
It had been easy to not notice Gray at first, even though they're both tiny; the glinting fragment of a wing taking up far more of his focus than anything that might have been hopping or climbing in the distance. Now, though, with that activity above the web the presence of a Meridian is unmistakeable. When he gets close enough to identify her, though — see just who it is riding that leaf down to the wing — he falters, for just a second. Stops in mid-air, wings flapping uncertainly.
Any other Meridian, sure, he could try to kill on sight. But Gray?
Ugh this sucks. Even as she's working to free the wing...
He comes to a decision, pulling out his blaster as he flies in closer, aiming for the tip of the leaf and burning a tiny hole through it. A warning shot, which he probably wouldn't do for anyone else. ]
Hey. [ And he raises a hand in greeting, not exactly liking this but, well. You do what you've gotta do. ] Might want to back off and leave this one to me.

[ It is an amicably-delivered threat. ]
