TEXT ♞ INSERT KAGOME SONG

[optimistical]

I just got a crane in the mail and it won't stop following me around.

I don't know if I should just "release" into the woods so does anyone know if the zoo takes donations? Because I really can't take home a crane.

It won't stop pecking me if I tried picking him up anyway...

( ooc: here is the accompanying log! )

Maybe if you get 999 more cranes your wish can come true. It's clearly a sign. ☆

[optimistical]

If I got 999 more cranes, I think I'll use my wish to make all 1000 of them to go away.

[promisedyou]

That's kind of sad...

Cranes are good creatures that did nothing wrong, and you want them to go away? What if they were sent to horrible, horrible people by a careless wish like that?

[optimistical]

I'd wish for them to go somewhere safe like their own habitat or something because there's no way I can take care of them all.

Besides, what would I even do with 1000 cranes?

[ they're all going to peck naegi to death, that's what they'd do. there'd then be a murder trial and you'd have to figure out which was crane that dealt the final blow. is that what you want, mio ]

[promisedyou]

Sell them for profit.

[ An immediate answer. ]

[optimistical]

Isn't that insanely illegal??

[promisedyou]

I'm not actually sure. I've never sold an animal before.

[optimistical]

Someone said that the crane I have is an endangered species so I think just owning one is already a crime. Selling one is probably way worse.

[promisedyou]

That's true that it would probably be pretty bad if they were endangered... At least you're not eating them, though. Are cranes even edible?

[optimistical]

I think any animal could be edible... but why would I even attempt to eat a crane?!

[promisedyou]

You know what they say: curiosity killed the cat.

Plus a lot of people would wonder "hey, do all birds taste like chicken"?

[optimistical]

I think a quick google search will answer that question rather than actually trying it...

Besides, I don't think I could even get close enough to try and kill it. If I take even one step towards it, it just pecks me repeatedly until I get away.

[promisedyou]

Well, maybe the fact that it pecks you is a sign of its affection! Maybe it loves you!

[optimistical]

I don't know, Google is giving a really different answer...

[promisedyou]

Maybe Google is wrong.

[optimistical]

3,070,000 results are all wrong?

[promisedyou]

The internet can be wrong.

[optimistical]

I think it can be agreed universally, with or without the internet, that losing an eye doesn't sound very nice, though.

I came close to losing mine three times already.

[promisedyou]

Okay, yeah, losing an eye is definitely bad.

[optimistical]

I'm wondering if I should invest in getting myself a football helmet with a visor if I'm going to have this bird around for a while...

[promisedyou]

I think that wouldn't be a bad idea.

[optimistical]

It'd be useful if we have another monster invasion as well so it'd be a worthful purchase, I think.

[ football helmets aren't cheap and he's trying to justify this purchase to himself. a football helmet to protect his tiny head or not eating for a while HMMM ]

[promisedyou]

I think it would be useful to protect yourself in general, but I hope we don't have another monster invasion.

[optimistical]

I'm hoping not either but it's really hard to say with Retrospec. There were apparently a bunch of monsters in the areas that the groups went out to next month.
