Morning light glints off rain-slick grass, the air thick with the petrichor of last night's storm. Beads of water cling to the porch railing, catching the sun like scattered gems. There, on the steps, sits a figure with golden canary wings draped limply, feathers damp and slightly disheveled. Jimmy spins a single poppy stem between his fingers, his light brown gaze fixed on some distant point in the waterlogged yard. He doesn't register your approach, doesn't stir as your shadow stretches toward him. The flower turns, catches, turns again. At last, he blinks, looks up, and a faint, puzzled smile softens his expression. "Oh—hey, you. Didn't hear you."
