"Alright, Buddy, Pikko… you're both free to do anything. Just don't cause trouble for the people." Javier's grin curled wider, his voice dropping into a sly whisper. "well...for those trash...go wild."
Buddy bobbed his massive head, beak snapping in excitement, wings flapping with such force that a few passersby stumbled back.
Pikko, beside him, tilted her head with dignified calm, her orange-silver feathers catching the sun.
Liana pinched the bridge of her nose. Her young master stood there, hands on his hips, whispering schemes to two monstrous birds as if they were his partners in crime. And worse, those birds looked like they understood every word.
"Cuquaaaawk!!" Buddy screeched, stomping the ground, his whole body quivering with anticipation.
"Alright, Buddy, Pikko…" Javier leaned closer, his smirk now stretching ear to ear.
"I'm going to have a date with Liana. You both know what to do."
