Caritas | Wednesday

Nathan wasn't coming to Caritas alone tonight. Ramona had turned into a fucking blue chick right in front of him and even he wasn't that big of a dickhead to leave her alone in her alcove. So, he'd carried the blue chick to Caritas and was letting her walk around on the counter while he poured himself a drink.

Tino started scowling when he poured some whiskey in a saucer and put the blue chick in front of it. Tino kept scowling when Ramona started drinking it and Nathan just started laughing. He wouldn't let her drink enough to harm her but come on, maybe she wanted to wet her beak!

While the whiskey was nice and all, Ramona was having a bitch of a time trying to drink anything with her teeny tiny beak and was mostly getting it in her feathers. Which was basically the most annoying thing ever. She chirped in irritation.

Ramona started cheeping at him, trying to explain how it was SO UNFAIR that she didn't get to be high, either. She was stuck as a baby bird, for god's sake!

Well, now she was going to try to bite him again. Because his lack of faith in her control just because she was a bird was getting annoying.

Bird or not, Ramona could shake her head. Sure, it looked stupid, because she was a tiny baby bird, but she could do that much.

If a cheep could sound doubtful, Ramona had achieved it. As it was, she hopped toward that finger to nuzzle her head against it. See, she was grateful. And fuzzy!

She liked cuddling! She just didn't like cuddling in public. It was different as a little bitty bird! You kind of got a pass for it. But she shook her little head again even as she gave a wee happy coo and continued nuzzling his hand.

Ramona chirped indignantly. She could sleep on his pillow! Or make a nest out of his hair! It would be fine!

Ramona's chirps were mostly in the defense that as a little baby bird, she was probably not even sexually mature. And also she had no interest in fucking other chicks.

Unless she was human. And 'chicks' weren't literal. But her flapping and peeping probably didn't mean a lot to him, though she did shake her head no a few times.

Ramona immediately quieted. And if little baby birds could glare, she was definitely doing so at Nathan.

Ramona's answering chirp was noncommittal (if chirps had tone to them.) She didn't know. Like she had any control over this? If she had, would she be a bird? No. She started hopping over to the cocktail napkins, an idea formed in her head.

She was going to ignore that, because ew, and seized a napkin in her beak before standing on it with one tiny foot and starting to rip it up.

This seemed oddly natural.

And once that napkin was ripped, she got another one and began to shred it, arranging the pieces in a sort of circle with higher walls.

Oh yes. She was nesting. On the bar.

Well, now she was abandoning her nest for the moment and trying to nuzzle against his hand again. Because she wanted none of that. No, Tino.

No. She was going to go curl up in it, fluffing her feathers out as she did so. Look, Nathan. Now she was even fuzzier.

Ramona's response was to leave her nest, hop over to the edge, peer over it, give a startled peep, and then hop back to the safety of her nest.

See, Nathan? She couldn't stay here. Everything was too big and high up!

She just stared at him like he was insane. Even adult chickens couldn't fly!
