Scott loved Jimmy, and he loved living together. For the most part, it was incredibly domestic. There was, however, one thing that really bothered Scott.
Jimmy left his messes everywhere. He wasn’t messy in the usual sense - he always made sure to wash his dishes and clean up after himself when he cooked or baked. The real issues came with Jimmy’s feathers.
Jimmy shed his feathers all the time. It had never been so bad before, even when Scott would preen Jimmy’s wings. He had no idea why he was suddenly finding small, yellow feathers in every nook and cranny. He’d flip over a pillow on the couch and reveal one or two, or he’d move a blanket and a few would flutter out, or - on one occasion - he would open the pantry and find a damn feather next to the bread. Scott could live with the feathers scattered around the house, but the ones in their bedroom were becoming particularly annoying. There were tons of feathers in their bed at every given moment.
It was really starting to get on Scott's nerves.
Scott doesn't understand the significance of Jimmy leaving his feathers everywhere. Jimmy's just trying to tell Scott that he loves him.
