A Snap of the Beak
The dark ceiling above had square lines. Bright lights hummed. I blinked... and then, my bill parted! Click. A soft, tiny smack in the quiet air. I leaned forward right away. The big screen behind flickered with pale white boxes. I flapped my left arm up, giving a firm pat against the air, testing the sway of my soft green body. Yes! Moving feels bouncy. I rested still, chin lifted straight toward the glowing projector beam.
