well yes, but I’d argue the reaction was merely a reaction to being placed in a distressing circumstance.

[she sighs, glancing at the bird on their shoulder]

I suppose if you finding her under a month old explains the attachment. Most would have ‘left the nest’ y’know?

i mean, sure, but she was fine with the pocket a few minutes ago. she also has that reaction to a lotta things. making food and not sharing it with her, lumber not saying hi to her when she enters a room, movies she doesn’t like, i could go on.

yeah. i was originally plannin’ on releasing her, but she’s only got one working wing.

that sounds- quite hard to manage, i suppose it would be a lot like caring for a child.

one working wing? have you not attempted to ammend the other?

it’s almost junior’s birthday which means i gotta get to planning. please lmk if you wanna help with her birthday party :)

why are you throwing a party for a bird?

’cause she’s my daughter!

she’s also a bird. how do you even know when her birthday is?

well she seemed t’be like a month old when i found her, and i found her in june of last year!

wouldn’t that make her birthday in may then?

I suppose you could be doing far worse with your time, but still, a party for a bird.

give ‘er take. i’m guessin’ she was born around the first few days of june.

i dunno why this is so confusin’ to you. she’s got a real big personality, she’s basically one of us. have you ever met her?

hm, I suppose that’s a reasonable guess.

‘a big personality’ right, whatever you say. thinking about it, I can’t say I have. I’ve got enough trouble from one bird, which is more than I need.

[their eyes light up]

d’you wanna meet her???

well, I certainly don’t have anything else to do at current, why not?

[they reach into their pocket and produce a very small bluejay. she’s been in there the whole time apparently.]

Say hi, J!

[she chirps]

[she blinked, surprised]

you- keep your bird, in your pocket? that's- wouldn't that limit its oxygen?

[she squints, not sure if she's supposed to reply]

how did it even fit in there?

it’s a big pocket. she usually sits on my shoulder when i bring her places, but she told me she wanted t’nap.

she’s little, ain’t ya, J?

[she chirps in response again.]

she told you? what, she speaks english or do you speak bird? either way the concept is quite fascinating.

[she smirked in mild amusement]

neither i s’pose. she’s just very vocal about her opinions. she chirps ‘bout everythin’, it’s just up t’me to figure out what it is she’s sayin’.

[they shrug, like this makes total sense.]

her opinions- right, okay. that does seem like a lot of work, though. besides, what if you get it wrong?

oh, i’d know. watch this.

it’s hard t’ miss what she’s saying.

well yes, but I’d argue the reaction was merely a reaction to being placed in a distressing circumstance.

why are you throwing a party for a bird?

everything seems to be becoming more tiresome recently, though i'm not really sure why.

[ He's in the kitchen of the electric shed, pressed against a wall with his ear against it. Something is making this high-pitched ringing, they're sure of it! Definitely not just in their head. ]

what are you doing?

. . . Do you not hear that?

no? what am i supposed to be hearing?

That ringing! I know I hear it, I just can't figure out where it's coming from.

maybe it’s something wrong with your wiring? should I check?

Absolutely not. It is obviously something in the kitchen!

[she raised an eyebrow]

hm. maybe joule left out of of her explosives?

Oh, please don't make me think about that! I already have enough of a headache.

[ He groans and rubs his hands down his face. ]

I don't see anything on the tables . . .

knowing joule it’d be more likely to be in the fridge.

[she crosses her arms, watching him]

are you sure that’s the only thing bothering you? you look a bit-

[she gestured, struggling to find the right word]

[ blink blink. ]

. . . is something wrong with my hair or . . . ?

no, no you just seem a bit- off? is everything alright? i mean with this supposed 'ringing' and all.

Everything is perfectly fine. It will be much better once I find this ringing though.

[ He has not yet made the connection that they might be the only one hearing the ringing. ]

killerwatt, maybe i could just do a quick one-over of your auditory processors?

Of course, but may I ask why?

just curiosity. it may help us find the source of this ringing.

[ He nods, pulling out a stool from the kitchen island and sitting down. ]

Check whatever you need to, then.

[she skates closer, wondering if it’s best she gets her tools.]

is there a particular side the ringings on? or both ears?

um . . . I suppose both? I can't quite tell.

right.

[she taps at the side of his head, listening intently]

you haven't experienced any head trauma recently, have you? no bumps or anything?

Nothing that I can recall.

[ They cross their legs. The ringing felt like it came out of nowhere, actually. ]

hm, been exposed to any significantly loud noises lately? other than the usual noise that is?

Um . . . Possibly? I was at the race tracks yesterday, it was rather loud.

and you’ve haven’t been experiencing any dizziness recently, have you?? sleeping okay??

would you say the ringing is constant or occasional??

[ He has to think for a minute, uncrossing his legs. ]

No dizziness. And I take my sleep very seriously. I may have been distracted but other noises, but as far as I'm aware the ringing has not been constant.

that’s good, means it’s likely not some on going condition. would you mind if I took a look at your radio?

I don't mind. Just be careful.

[she fiddled wirh the radio waves, observing the frequencies intently]

notice any difference between tunings?

[ He bounces his leg up and down, trying to feel for anything different. He straightens his back up after a second, face a little suprised. ]

That! Whatever you just did stopped the ringing.

[she sighs in relief, glad it’s not something serious. she fiddled with the tuning to ensure it was adjust correctly]

looks like it was just some interference with your radio signal. but Killerwatt, do tell me if you hear that ringing again, right?

[ He's in the kitchen of the electric shed, pressed against a wall with his ear against it. Something is making this high-pitched ringing, they're sure of it! Definitely not just in their head. ]
