The Park, Valentine's Day Afternoon

[mildly-super.livejournal.com]

The snow in the park was covered with a layer of ice, making travel across it an adventure, but the ducks managed it.

Huddled together beneath a hanging trashcan, Saigo, and one of the female ducks sat sheltered from some of the elements. He told her of his life in the hotel, and she told him of her life in Canada. Everytime the wind gusted, they huddled closer together.

And lo, the squirrels sat in the trees and tried to peg the lovebirds ducks with candy hearts.

Because the squirrels were malicious little bastards.

Saigo would have glared if ducks could glare. As a candy heart pinged off the Trash Can, Saigo came out from cover, picked up the heart, and deliberately turning his back on the squirrels, presented it to the female.

Neither of them knew what the heart said, but Saigo knew enough about Humans to know the signifigance of the treat.

Good thing they couldn't read--the squirrels had raided Barbossa's stash of evil, snarky, heart candy. (http://despair.com/bittersweets.html)

Chittering evilly to themselves, the squirrels raced off to find someone else to bother.

//Victory is mine.// Saigo quacked, laughing as Ducks do.

The female laughed as well. //My hero.// she teased.
