[This is the sight of a very bedraggled phoenix. Worse than molting season, he looks like hell. He whacks the comm with a wing and turns it on before forcing himself back to human. And Marco, on his back, is clearly not handling the fog well.]Okay... while I'm still lucid... I'm going to be next to useless till this fog is gone. Scientist

((Regardless if you're listening or not, Greece is quietly singing the most disconnected version of 'happy birthday' known to man. Congratulations, Marco.))

[fierybluebird]

[I have no clue. Marco seems to know though, because he enthusiastically chirps back more.]

Tweet! Chirp croo-kee! [Apparently they are talking about summer islands now.]

[gocoldturkey]

((That's impressive, considering Greece has no idea what he's saying. Clearly it's his animal magnetism.))

Krooo?

[fierybluebird]

Kree!!!

[Finally switches back to human.] You have no idea what I've been saying do you?

[gocoldturkey]

I'm a pro at bird watching.

((This could imply one of two things. Either he really is a bird watcher, and used to this sort of thing, or he is much like a cat, and is secretly stalking all the birds ever.))

[fierybluebird]

And bird whistles?

[This kind of scares him a little, but he's not going to admit it. It's not like Greece will try to eat him, right?]

[gocoldturkey]

Coo coo ca choo. ((I am the walrus.))

[fierybluebird]

[Facepalms. That is what it means in bird, because I say so.]

You are not the walrus.

[gocoldturkey]

Oh, but do you know that?

[fierybluebird]

Aye. I suppose everyone knows that one.

[gocoldturkey]

You can't always rule out something just because it hasn't happened. Maybe being a walrus is my secret calling.

[fierybluebird]

Eh, really?

[This is also the fog talking a bit here.]

[gocoldturkey]

Yea...

Like, think about it. What goes up must come down right? But back on earth, they sent a hunk of metal into the sky, and it never came back down. Just because it's been that way forever, doesn't mean it can't change.

[fierybluebird]

What? You mean it broke out of the gravitational pull?

[gocoldturkey]

Y e u p.

[fierybluebird]

That must have been a tremendous amount of force.
