Coal followed the man and woman up the gangplank. He’d just noticed the man was missing an arm and would have stared for far too long if he hadn’t noticed the crazy harpy tangled in the ropes.
All thoughts of the werewolf leaving his mind, he hailed him.
“Ay there! Did you get caught in the…” (he didn’t know what the ratlines were called) “the ropes?”
All of the other crewmates had turned a blind eye to his misfortunes. But Coal didn’t mind a little crazy, he welcomed it, in fact.
Coal flew up and landed nimbly among the ratlines, grabbing the ropes with hands and balancing his feet. His wings he closed tightly to avoid making the same mistake the crazed harpy had. He gently loosened the rope towards the bottom of his wings.
He made eye contact with the harpy, and what crazed eyes he had indeed. “So what baked your brains, anyway?” he asked frankly.

Gecko paused from his struggle. "Eh... What?" He looked at his tangled wing and pulled on the rope. "Uh... my wing is uh, little stuck." He looked down to his knife below. "And me help abandoned me."

“Mercy!" cried Gandalf. "If the giving of knowledge is to be the cure of your inquisitiveness, I shall spend all the rest of my days in answering you. What more should you like to know?"

"The names of all the stars, and of all living things, and the whole history of Middle-Earth and Over-heaven and of the Sundering Seas," laughed Pippin. "Of course! What less?”
That quote is from The Lord of the Rings)

Coal glanced down at the knife. Since he was more destructive type, rather than further embroil himself in teasing the wings out the way they came, he hopped off the lines and snatched up the knife from below. Putting the hilt between his teeth (which is not really safe or advisable) he scrambled back up the lines. He was dumb enough to put it in his mouth but not so dumb to do it while he was flying. Coal began to saw at the line which ensnared Gecko’s wing. Then his ever-belated inhibitions began to arrive. He stopped sawing.
“I don’t know if Captain Vanya wants us cutting these ropes.” Though he didn’t really know what they were needed for, they seemed like an unnecessary harpy-trap to him.

(He's based off a car. A Ghe-O Predator to be exact. :p
Was this from one of your stories? I like it!)

Gecko held the rope for Coal to cut. "Uhh..." he glanced around. The captain was nowhere to be seen. He reached over and took the rusty blade from Coal. "Welly-uh, she might-y not notice?" He slid the knife into its shealth. Coal might have been right, and if he was, they weren't far enough out to sea for Vhanya not to try feeding him to her pet alley cats. Seeing the dock next to the ship reminded Gecko that they weren't out at sea at all, for that matter.
"We could chew the ropes, maybe?" His confidence faded before he finished his sentence. "If only we had the captain's teeth..." he looked to the sky as if imagining how sharp Aqrabaumelu's teeth were. He put a finger to his lip and touched it with his tongue. "Yeah."

(You need to read Lord of the Rings, I probably should have said that was what it was from. I guess I just assumed everyone knew)
Coal looked regretfully at the cut he had made. It was only a quarter of the way through the sturdy rope. Hopefully, Vanya wouldn’t notice.
“Well, if you got them feathers wedged in here, they can come out the way they came.”
He began teasing the long feathers through the ropes, lifting them out and laying them on top.
“Where are you from, anyway?” Coal asked. “I’ve never seen you at Bird Point. And what is your name again?”

Gecko's pins poked him as Coal moved each feather. "That's what I-ah thought," he lifted his free wing. "But it only worked fah one." He folded his wing back in. It would be a sad mistake if he tangled it again.
"The forest," he nodded his head toward the South. "Above the cove. I lived neah the boulder that-" His teeth showed through the smile that washed upon his face. It was a memory he had temporarily forgotten. His mind drifted off into silence as he looked in the direction of his old home.
"Yeah, there," he pointed, returning to his current predicament. "Not too, uh, far from he-ah."
