birds tho

Okay, does anybody else feel like the Trumps have running jokes for them? Like, themes that keep popping up on jaunts that have nothing to do with you but you keep running into it somehow?

Mine is birds. The peacock tail in Doki, then there was the Owl Prince guy, then TOTO got turned into a mynah bird in Bando, then there was Rome and Ambrosius'.... everything. And in Newport I literally became a bird man hybrid thing, I won't be surprised if next jaunt I'm a member of an ancient and noble clan of ostrich riders.

[ ...challenge accepted. ]

I mean I like birds but back home I wasn't a ornithologist or anything, there's no cultural significance, I just keep getting avian associations for no good rea-- it's my nose isn't it.

...why is yours bugs? That seems pretty consistent.

[ yes he does pay attention occasionally HUSH. ]

[chalicejoker]

Probably because I turn into a giant one.

Like that's a thing I've been able to do since before I got here.

[wholeheaded]

Well that's weird and different. [ says the guy who can now turn into a sexy tavern wench and aforementioned terrifying bird-man-thing and a betentacled robot. ] That was your other form on the spaceship, right?

[chalicejoker]

Yeah, it was. I thought people might listen more to a weird alien than a human.

[wholeheaded]

Good call, I know Brose was fascinated when he wasn't... freaking out at everything.

[chalicejoker]

To be fair, I get the freaking out from other people thing a lot in that form.

[wholeheaded]

Yeah. If I'd been me there probably would have been a little more... concerned backing away. But now I'm prepared so if I bump into bug-you again it won't be a big deal.

[ hooray? ]

[chalicejoker]

That works. The panic gets kind of old.

[wholeheaded]

I can imagine it does. I just hope we don't end up... bugging and birding at the same time, that could get ugly.

[chalicejoker]

I dunno, my cousin turned into a bird monster. We got along alright.

[wholeheaded]

Well that's reassuring. I mean, except for the bird-monster thing, having been one that's less pleasant.

[chalicejoker]

Yeah, he wasn't really a fan, either.

[wholeheaded]

Feathers can be surprisingly itchy.

[chalicejoker]

I think his problem was the weird clawed hands and trying to eat with a beak...

...the two of us could seriously make a mess when we ate.

[wholeheaded]

I can imagine. And be glad I only got a few bird parts, beak not included.
