"that's probably a nighthawk." huaisang said, pointing to a bird out in the grass nearby. "they're pretty common around here actually, but it's rare to see them out this early. they're typically active at twilight or later, maybe because they're not particularly pretty so they don't want people to see with them." he said, with a shrug and a light laugh. it certainly wasn't the type of bird he'd go for as a pet. he had always preferred them more colorful. "though what do i know, it could just be another pigeon. those are all over. boring, but good if you're looking for a bird to grab as a pet."

Alicia needed a job, but she wasn't sure what she would be especially good at -- the outbreak had started right when she was in high school, so she never got the chance to work. She was lost in thought, gazing at nothing when she noticed the other, and sighed. "I don't know what to do with myself." She says, "I'm not used to living in a place like this."

But it felt like this man really had enough fun for the rest of the year already, to be all honest with you.”
