After the grilling was done, Javier leaned back against the big tree near the pekko pen and his personal workshop.
"Fuhh… I'm full… heh…"
Javier glanced around. The other pekkos were preening their feathers nearby, while Buddy was focused on preening his own feathers right next to him.
He chuckled softly, looking up at Buddy, who was completely absorbed in his grooming.
Heh… just like a chicken, but bigger than an ostrich. Fantasy world is the best.
"Buddy…" Javier called, a playful smirk on his face.
"Cuquawked?" Buddy paused his preening and glanced down at Javier.
"Don't you dare flick any of those 'feather mites' or whatever that is on me," Javier teased.
"Cuquawked!!!" Buddy stared at him for a moment, then with a mischievous glint in his large eye, he used one of his huge talons to casually push a small pile of loose dirt toward Javier.
