week zero, sunday.

[Somewhere in the void, Harrowhark will run into Hunter again... with a friend? Hunter's face is looking kind of blotchy, and there is a red cardinal with a tiny party hat perched on his head. Why is the bird there? He just is. This is his home now.]

Found your room alright?

[outsidebones]

[oh! she's staring at bird friend, taken aback.]

Um, yes. Indeed, I did.

[greatvalue]

[The bird friend tilts his head at her, chirping.]

Oh, that's good. [A beat, noticing her expression.] Is everything okay...?

[outsidebones]

...I haven't ever seen one so close. It is tame?

[greatvalue]

Yeah, of course he is. He's my palisman. [Like. That explains anything.] Don't mess with him, and he won't mess with you.

[outsidebones]

[that means nothing but she just accepts it.]

I don't intend to mess with him. He is...intriguing.

[she likes the bird.]

[greatvalue]

[Harrow is valid. The bird chirps, seemingly happy, and then hops off Hunter's shoulder to fly a little closer to her. Hi.]

Heh, he says "thanks." [Sure thing, dude.] You've... really never seen a bird this close before?

[outsidebones]

We don't have then, where I'm from.

[greatvalue]

But they did exist at some point? Or... are they just fictional in your realm? Like possums.

[outsidebones]

They existed a long time ago. And there are still some species alive on the First House.

[greatvalue]

The First House?

[outsidebones]

It's where humans originated from, many thousands of years ago. Birds originated there, too.

[greatvalue]

Oh, so it's like the Titan!

[outsidebones]

The Titan?

[greatvalue]

Where I come from, we live on the bones of a fallen Titan. All forms of life on the isles came from it.

[outsidebones]

Oh.

[cool.......]

Bones, you say. But they are suitable for life?

[greatvalue]

[He nods.]

There are more carcasses out there. But ours is the only compete skeleton.
