Falconry day! Falconry day!

[sharpasafawkes]

[today on one of the more open areas there's a helpful set of pamphlets, clearly made for kids about the ~wonders of falconry~ perches for the birds, species info and all sorts of fun facts!

...now only if the birds themselves didn't look so annoyed.]

...

sounds pretty standard for the bird station at the zoo.

[most normal of conversations WITH A BIRD]

[x_autnihil]

Unfortunately, this is neither a bird station nor a zoo.

[misswexler]

Is this a sex thing? [because if so, she has IMPORTANT QUESTIONS]

[x_autnihil]

*have you ever seen a bird look grossed out? because now you have*

No, not at all.

[misswexler]

[le pout, no answers for her today. but that is a very interesting...semi-facial...expression]

Oh. If you don't mind my asking...

[x_autnihil]

It's for no real reason. Or, rather, it is an extension of a joke Camp is apparently still enjoying at our expense.

[misswexler]

Wait, turning into an animal can just happen randomly?

[x_autnihil]

Yes.

Or from touching the barrier too much.

[misswexler]

[NO]

[x_autnihil]

Am I the bearer of ill news? *stretches his wings a bit* Sadly, it's true.

[misswexler]

Yeah, I'm...I'm new. [vague wave of her hand] Sorry about the, um. The feathers.

[x_autnihil]

It's quite all right. As far as transformations go, this is not all that bad. With any luck it will not last long, either.

[misswexler]

[lifts and flaps her hand like an unimpressed student in class] Okay, so: if they just randomly poof people into animals, then how on earth is that an effective punishment for misdeeds? Step a toe over the line and we'll...do what we were going to do anyway!

[x_autnihil]

Random transformations occur far less frequently, at least for most people. If we are operating under the assumption that this place functions with any semblance of logic, we might consider them warning shots.

[misswexler]

So camp just doesn't like you.

[x_autnihil]

*wryly* You could say that.
