april 11 - network phone text
[ This is identical to a message she sent to Miles too, but... why waste thought trying to come up with novel ways of starting a conversation? ]

whats up
no subject
Do any of your pulse memories have anything to do with birds?
no subject
uh no, no birds. why, what do you remember?
no subject
[ Okay yeah that's hella vague but she's trying to do something that will explain her problem so much better right now. Just give her a minute for unforeseen delay.... ]
no subject
about what? did one of the others tell you something about birds?
no subject
Showing what in such poor lighting might initially look like a large ball of pale green fluff nestled on top of a discarded t-shirt- maybe a stuffed toy?
Except that this fluff also has the beadiest version of a stink-eye you've ever seen being aimed at the camera... and given the way it turns its head, feathers ruffling, it's not just a doll, either. ]
switching to voice >:(
Okay, he's not going to keep texting when this obviously warrants a little bit more discussion, so he switches over to voice. He's a little annoyed, but mostly he just sounds baffled. ]
What the hell? Where'd you find that thi-- Wait. Is that thing in your house?
[ Yes, of all the things he could have said, that's what he zeroes in on. ]
fine fine we all know he's just trying to get her using her pretty voice in return anyway
The camera swings away, moving like she almost intends to aim it at herself before thinking better of it. Instead it's just her tense-sounding voice coupled with a view of the wall. ]
You expect me to keep him in a shoebox outside?
no subject
I'd think you wouldn't take it at all. Never would've thought you'd be a sucker for baby bird "take me home" faces. Color me surprised.
[ That's his attempt at trying to lighten this. But it might not come across in his voice very well. He's still kinda weirded out. ]
no subject
[ /USES HIS NAME yeah it doesn't work to lighten the mood so much. She's kind of vaguely offended and certainly a touch defensive now.
Before this she totally was taking home random sickly birds to try and help them. She uh... actually is a sucker for birds in general.
That was sort of Echo-caused too though, so... so either way. WHATEVER. ]
no subject
[ He was kind of thinking there was no way it was actually the thing from his vision, and probably just looked like it but... holy shit. ]
What happened exactly? Was it just there when you woke up?
[ Oh my god, what if they all end up with random birds? ]
no subject
No, I... did something. And the bird appeared.
[ Yeah that def clears things up. ]
no subject
[ Kallie. Seriously? You're going to be vague about this? And you're going to be vague by saying that? Do you even know the million ways that could be taken? ]
Liiiike...?
no subject
She huffs a sigh of frustration. Throw in "complicated" as well. ]
I don't think I ever told you about the crystal thing... right?
no subject
...No. What crystal thing?
no subject
... I've had this pink crystal for a while now... when I broke it, the bird appeared.
[ Leaving out looots of details here (e.g., "I've had" = "I can make it appear from out of my chest"), but close enough? ]
no subject
[ The image he gets from this is that of a little chick hatching from a random cluster of pink mineral crystals. It's kind of confusing and amazing all at once. ]
I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume that crystal thing was something you pulsed back, too?
[ What the hell kind of twisted dimension did they come from that birds hatched from crystals? ]
...Can I see it again?
no subject
[ Though, she pauses at the request. After a moment bird-cam comes back on (with the lil guy not having moved very much), but- ]
... Do you know anything or not?
no subject
...It's a... chocobo. [ This is unsurely muttered, like he's reading it off a cue card. ]
no subject
[ She follows his lead in making it sound uncertain, like she's feeling the unfamiliar word out. To be honest, she's just waiting for it to hit her with the sensation of an Echo - and return to her whatever other arbitrary thing happens to be related to the matter at hand.
Nothing happens though, even after a few seconds; apparently the word alone isn't enough for her right now? ]
no subject
no subject
... Maybe he's dyed.
[ She doesn't sound all that hopeful, though. ]
no subject
[ He actually cracks up at that, though more in how it was said than anything. ]
Maybe! That'd be pretty cool! Could just be a different breed or something, too. Or else maybe guys and girls are different colors?
[ That's a thing with birds right? Maybe? Eh, who knows. ]
Oh! And uh, in case it hasn't happened yet, I guess I should... give you a head's up that it can fly. Not like a normal bird flies, though. Like... it can hover in the air and stuff.
[ That probably made it sound like a little hummingbird, which isn't the case from what he can remember. But she'll probably see for herself eventually.
no subject
[ Not really much elaboration needed for that, her tone probably continues to illustrate well enough. You'd think a tiny pudgy bird wouldn't be able to get into too much trouble if you set what you don't want him to get at anywhere above his head-level..... but you'd be wrong. ]
no subject
At least it's just a normal-ish looking bird that came out. Could've been worse.
[ A lot worse. Lesson to learn here is don't break any magic crystals that appear. ]
Are you gonna keep it? It shouldn't be hard to keep under wraps with how tiny it is, but...
no subject
[ Yes, perfect save. Let's just gloss over how she can't even fathom the idea of abandoning the baby fella (gal? how do you even bird sexes), okay.
She just gives a heavy sigh. Jake laughs, but she's the one who has to deal with this newest mess. ]
no subject
He can hear the frustration in that sigh though. ]
Eh, it'll be fine. It's just a bird. How much trouble could it be?
[ That thing is so tiny, it mustn't eat very much. And it seems well behaved from the video feed she'd shown. ]
Have you named it yet?
no subject
And anyway, yep, it's just a little bird. It can't be that much worse than what she's already been doing. ]
No. Not yet.
[ And no she is not naming him Cheepy. Or Boco. Or Jimbob. Or Mr Petersworth. ]
no subject
No? Hmmm...
[ Yeah, you hear that, Kallie? That's the sound of Jake suddenly taking it upon himself to suggest names. Enjoy. ]
...How about Pistachio?
[ See? Cause it's green. Like the bird. It fits, man. ]
no subject
... And shorten it to "Pissy?"
[ Tone says "no" to that one. ]
no subject
Tch. Like you wouldn't want to yell "Pissy!" when you're scolding it... And if it turns yellow later, it'll fit!
[ Yeah, okay, that was gross. So gross it was perfect. And he can't help but laugh at his own stupid observation. ]
Okay okay, fine...... Olivia?
[ Get it? Like an olive? Which is also green? ]
no subject
Kind of girly...
no subject
[ He has no idea how you could even tell with birds, but he has a tendency to assume animals are girls by default. Then again, that hasn't really worked all that well for him so far. ]
Hmm... Midori? [ Like the green liqueur. ] Honeydew?
[ A pause. ]
Granny Smith?
[ There's a snicker. ...Is he even taking this seriously anymore? ]
no subject
SIGH. ]
You're not helping.
no subject
Though I guess I just did.
[ Nope. Not serious at all. ]
no subject
[ You can practically hear the sarcastic tildes waving in the air around those last few words there, yep. Jake's "impressed with" level according to Kallie is quickly falling into the negatives here... ]
