"Yes! I'm studying for exams until the 23rd. Why?"

"There's an eagle at Nevertire."

"There's a lot of eagles there."

"Yes, but this one needs new wing feathers."

"ah."

"ah."

"And I have the feathers, and you have a car..."

"ah."

"We have to go to him bacause he's really stressy and bitey and doesn't travel well. Gillian says he's really cranky."

"Oh goody!"


So, some time next week I'll be putting my face within striking distance of the talons of an eagle who will hate every second I'm near him. YAY!

Wow!

I'd forgotten about that episode.

Wow!

Amazing that they feather sockets can hang onto the transplanted feathers well enough to fly! :o

Terrific, Mate! :)

That's one of those things where it makes perfect sense how it works, but it still feels like sorcery to me. Augh. %)
