[Perched on a leafless tree out in front of the castle is a merlin. It seems very calm, even calculating as it watches what's going on around it. It may even be staring at certain things. Eerie, isn't it. What do you do?]

[ oooh. pretty! nudge is on her way out to muck about in the forest when she glances up and notices the merlin. it's not often that she sees birds or any animals other than ducks this near the castle (and she definitely always notces the birds) so she pauses to look. ]

[daine]

[The merlin tilts its head slightly and lets out a soft cry in greeting.]

[ hnnnng. she'd love to try out that trick that fang taught her, about keeping still, extending her wings and waiting for the animal to approach, but she's too close to the castle for--

wait. close to the castle, huh?

she begins looking around on the ground. maybe there is a journal nearby??? ]

[daine]

[Nope, no journal. Daine left hers in her room.

Headtilt.]

[ hmm. maybe her brainwave wasn't that incredible after all.

she looks around, and then waves cautiously. hi? ]

[The falcon flaps one wing in a response wave.]

[ nudge quickly looks around to see if there are any other birds in the area!! +_+ it's just a formality, of course, since she knows no normal bird would do that. ]

[daine]

[Daine!Bird waits.]

[percepts]

[ no birds... hm. well, nudge is going to hold out her arm in a perch-like way. how about that! ]
