i feel like we canât really talk any shit about birds who get tagged by scientists becoming extra desirable to other birds bc like imagine if someone was abducted by aliens and given a mysterious unbreakable bracelet. and then when you ask them about it they get this complicated and distant look in their eyes and admit they donât know what it is but the aliens put it on them and they canât take it off no matter how hard they try. and you go oh that must have been terrifying and their expression softens a bit and they say it was, but it made them realize just how precious our brief time on earth really is, and they donât know when theyâll be taken again but itâll probably be for good this time so until that day they want to live every moment to the fullest, watch every sunrise, cherish every beautiful thing. then they reach over and gently pluck a fallen leaf out of your hair, and for a second youâre distracted by the dazzling shimmer of the cuff around their arm but then you realize theyâve been looking at you with this soft sort of smile on their face so you lean closer and idk the point is i think it would work on us too probably
