There aren’t many things you could ask about his life now that’d make him uncomfortable or embarrassed. His sex life would get you a smartass answer and his private life is as normal as one could have. But his wings are a major part of him, along with the scar on his back where his third set once was. One of the things that he’ll never say aloud, no matter what you ask or who you are, is that sometimes he wished he didn’t have them, because they constantly remind him of what he did.

But even then, there’s not a whole lot that can make get all flustered. Before he got married, sex stuff usually did the trick, but now he hardly bats an eye. Anything involving questions about his ears will make him stutter and trip over his words on a good day. On a bad day, he’ll just grunt and flip everyone off.

But after he fell (and changed his discriminatory views, thank god for that), he lost a lot of his power, leaving him more prone to grace drainage and whatnot. Matt was more careful after that, using his powers only when necessary. But, during the rare times he did strain himself too hard, leaving him too tired and sore to work at all, he’ll sleep through most of it – not thinking that he should bother with consciousness at all if he couldn’t do anything.

But Ray is totally open and comfortable about his affection with pretty much everyone in the company. It's not unusual to find him flopped onto a co-worker or in the middle of a cuddle pile. That being said, he does tend to reserve certain things for certain people. Only his closest friends get forehead and cheek kisses and an even smaller list get tail touching privileges (Seamus, Lindsay, Isis, Gavin, Michael and any of the babies, because he can't say no to them). His ears are off limits to anyone besides Seamus and Gavin, but anything else is pretty much fair game to anyone.
