[The first thing that can be heard is a strange sort of background noise. It may seem like static, but after a few moments it can be identified as squeaky hooting. As for Yuan? He doesn't sound amused.]

How the hell do you drive away pesky birds without killing them?


[Action]

[Anyone who happens to be out in the village can see Yuan striding by in a swift pace. He seems to be determinedly ignoring the existance of a tiny, greyish owlet that's zooming after him, chirping excitedly and trying to claw at his hair. Of course, because all villagers have the uncanny ability to understand what animals say, one will be able to hear the word "Blue" repeated over and over in that chatter.

If he can just make it home, perhaps he can slam the door in the creature's face and be rid of it for good.]

[Sup bff. Kratos is leaning against the wall and happens to see Yuan passing by. Of course, this means he sees the owlet obsessing over his hair.

That twitch at the corners of his lips indicates that he's trying desperately not to laugh.]

[Hm... Should Yuan pause and engage in conversation with Kratos, which will undoubtedly lead to mockery? Or should he keep walking and give Kratos the pleasure of knowing he's running away from a confrontation? Difficult decision.

Pausing for conversation it is. Just ignore the bird, Yuan, just ignore it...]

Kratos.

Yuan.

[He eyes the owlet.]

It seems you've gained another companion.

Asking them nicely usually work the best.

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

This particular pest doesn't seem to want to listen.

[Voice]

[amber-arcangel.livejournal.com]

Really?

Is it saying why not?

[Hold on, he's laughing. Laughing way too hard.]

Birds beating you down now, Yuan?

[ voice ; locked ]

[fortunefail]

[Oh, how he hates you.]

Who said it's beating me down? It's annoying, nothing more!

[ voice ; locked ]

[nottanzanite.livejournal.com]

[Sorry, he hasn't forgotten the jabs you made at him.]

It's clearly not allowing you to function right.

You send them back to Albert, of course.

[voice]

[fortunefail]

This little beast belongs to Albert?

[voice]

[mydearapple.livejournal.com]

I can't be sure, but I do know that he's fond of housing cute little forest animals in his coat. He'd probably be grateful.

[Out for a ride on my horse. Yep. That's totally what Albert's doing.

It's not every day that he sees Yuan out and around the village. ...It's also not every day he sees Yuan getting attacked by a familiar-ish flying fluffball.]

[action]

[Just the man Yuan needed to see. Albert can thank his little bro for ratting him out, but for now, he gets to deal with an irritated half-elf. Approaching is a go. See that look in his eyes? He means serious business.]

[action]

[chikaidestroyer]

[Definitely serious business, Yuan. You certainly look it with a bird chasing after your head.]

Hectic afternoon, Yuan?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Shooting at them helps.

[fortunefail]

You mean scaring it off with a loud threat, correct?

[He has no gun, so he can't shoot. But lightning magic might work as long as he doesn't accidentally zap the poor thing.]

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

No, I mean shooting at it.

[Voice]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Firecrackers! Popitty-pop-pop.

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

Where am I supposed to get those?

[Voice]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

The store, maybe?

I've heard that shiny objects can serve as a deterrent to birds. Failing that, you could always try erecting a scarecrow.

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

Something tells me the animals in this village have seen so many strange things, they won't be intimidated by something as simple as a scarecrow.

[Voice]

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

...Why are the birds bothering you, Yuan?

[Voice]

[fortunefail]

If I didn't know any better, I'd say for the sake of being obnoxious.
