Hello! First of all, Maurice would like me to tell you all that he's locking anyone who messes about with putting dangerous things in the mailbox to send to him which don't belong for at least a week (please don't send him dangerous things!!!!) and would like me to remind you it's for things you got sent only, please! Secondly, we've managed to fix one of the colors entirely, although one is still on the fritz. We'll keep working on it! By the way, is anyone going to do secret Santa games? I always like those, although I've only ever done them with other employees. Last year I got Ronnie. He's soooo hard to shop for but I think he liked the cane I got him? And Mr. Baroque got me! I'm not really sure he knows how to shop for girls. Or people who don't only want weapons. But the thought is what counts!

This includes all items your character had in their AU plus any regains your character has obtained. However, this does not include physical features. •Additionally, all flora and fauna have regained the color green. •Blue eyes and hair have been restored, meaning blue is entirely back! •Horses begin appearing in history texts, books, and academia, often phrased as being newly discovered from the past.

Thank you for bringing the color green back. You have returned something very important to this world.

(I have two more, but they didn't want to sit on the same perch long enough for me to take a picture).

[ohrlyeh]

oh how sweet. what are their names?

[prometheanflame]

The one on the right is Whitney. She won the pet competition a few months back.

The one on the left is Beyoncé. [...Yeah.]

[ohrlyeh]

whitney for whitney houston i guess?

are they all named after singers?

[prometheanflame]

Correct on both accounts.

They deserve to be named after someone accomplished.

[ohrlyeh]

that's a good idea. it's an interesting take on pet names.

you said you have two other birds?

[robitussin]

awwww they're cute

are the other two the same colors?

[prometheanflame]

One is entirely yellow! The other has more white feathers than blue.

[robitussin]

cute

what are their names?

[prometheanflame]

The one on the left is Beyoncé and the one on the right is Whitney. She's the youngest bird I have and the friendliest.

[robitussin]

excellent naming sense

well done

[storytelleroftime]

Ooooh, birds. How long have you had them for?

[prometheanflame]

I had Whitney (the one on the right) for two years now. The others were bought three and four years ago when I started living on my own.

[storytelleroftime]

So I guess you guys have a long and complex relationship, huh?

[prometheanflame]

We interact daily, and they trust me with all their heart.
The bond between man and animal is a special one indeed.

I always wanted to keep birds as pets, and I jumped on the first opportunity to do so.

[storytelleroftime]

Oooh, I see. What inspired you?

[floret]

What nice birds! Do they get along with Iggy?

[prometheanflame]

In the sense that I keep Iggy away from their cage, not without difficulty considering that dogs are naturally curious about small,m moving animals.

I don't want to risk letting them out unsupervised.

[floret]

That makes sense.
You seem like a real animal lover! Do you have any other pets?

[prometheanflame]

Not at this moment.

I don't have plans to buy any more, but you never know.

[floret]

Do you feel like you're kind of at capacity, or would you be able to take in another dog or cat or something if there were one that needed a home?

[liberal_arts]

Absolutely gorgeous. A true display of nature's gift for the arts.

[prometheanflame]

It's a shame that most parakeets come in blues and greens, but that's all over now.

[liberal_arts]

Actually, and please don't take this as a strange proposition, but could I paint them at some point?

[prometheanflame]

Like painting them on a canvas? Of course, if I can get them to sit still long enough.
