[ Left in crumpled red tissue paper in a little black box outside Alicent's door, one morning: Spike's welcome gift from the library, with an accompanying note. ]

Thought a proper lady might get more use out of this than me

Is it some sort of bird?

[chipped]

Oh, yeah. Think it's meant to be a flamingo.

You know, those pink fuckers who stand on one leg and eat shrimp?

[unapparent]

I’ve not heard of any such thing.
You surely jest.

1/2

[chipped]

Guess I should've figured you've never been to Florida. Not missing much, anyway, the heat's wretched and it's full of geriatrics and screaming children

And alligators. Nasty fuckers

2/3 i lied

[ Hold on a tick while he searches Saltoogle(??)

Then, a couple photos. ]

Not the prettiest birds, I'll give you that.

[chipped]

[ One final Salttube link. ]

All right the baby's pretty cute though

Anyway, the library gave me that cigarette holder. If you hate it I won't take offense.

[unapparent]

They’ve webbed feet like little frogs.

[ what the fuck. ]

This creature made you think of me?
I suppose I should not be surprised after the mouse.

[ ugh. ]

[chipped]

[ The mouse... ]

What, Mickey?

[ So she does know Florida. ]

It was more the fancy cigarette-holding part than the bird

Look, I'm bad at gifts. Just forget about it

[unapparent]

No, the manor gifted me a mouse that breathes fire and now it will not leave my chambers.

[ nurturing motherly instincts at -1000 ]

Oh. Well.
I do favour gold, I suppose.

[chipped]

Huh. Guess I should be thankful they didn't gift me a pet, then.

[unapparent]

Not yet.
Were you hoping for something else from library?

[chipped]

Motorbike would've been nice. Or a telly so I can catch up on my soaps.

[unapparent]

I haven’t the faintest idea what you’re talking about.

[chipped]

Telly. You know. Television? The big box that shows moving pictures.

You're really not from around here, are you?

[unapparent]

[ irritated, ]

I know about television.
But yes, rather obviously.
