"Parrot" - [PathOwOgen]
18 Jul 2020PathOwOgen
After the food for this morning's breakfast for two was all ready the commander kept facing Saturn while putting the food on plates, before picking them up and placing the two plates on the table, one considerately larger than the other. PathOwOgen gave himself the smaller of the two and motioned to Saturn to sit down. Saturn slowly walked over to the other side of the table carefully, each step deliberate and slow before he halted next to the empty seat, after another gentle motion for him to sit, Saturn did soThere was a pause of quiet before PathOwOgen simply stated to him "Can you understand me?"
Another moment of silence passed before the tips of Saturn's petals rippled, slowly trying to figure out how to make noise, until after a few odd clicks and sounds of air escaping at diffrent pitches and tones, unexpectedly Saturn said in a replica of PathOwOgen's Voice "Can you understand me?". Even if it was four words this was obviously a breakthrough, because through this CMDR's point of view, not only did the act of vocal replication create a interest, but also the premise that Saturn only attempted to manipulate sound in such a fashion, but when PathOwOgen asked him a question.
A breakthrough as such showing that he was aware when spoken to and gave an attempt, although a return of the same voice and words, an attempt to respond nevertheless.
CMDR PathOwOgen nodded in reply
a few seconds pass until Saturn slowly does the same thing
After this second interaction of such PathOwOgen began to eat some of the sausages off his own plate using a fork, noticing that he was beginning to eat Saturn eagerly used it's own sharp talons/thorns either or work in this situation, and simply just pierced the small links of sausage with them and consumed them into the hidden depths of the petals of his head, this kept going on for around 10 more minutes as they ate, as both of the porcelain plates became empty, our CMDR spoke once again
"Are you finished?" at the same time of saying the second part he pointed to himself "I'm finished."
A few more long seconds passed, it was fascinating as it almost felt like he could watch his gears turn in his head, trying to peice together his new function he learned moving the tips of his petals while blowing air out of them, while watching the CMDRs lips move as he spoke, thinking of how to mimic the action, thinking of his surroundings and thinking about what and how the small person said it. He noticed how he pointed to himself, does that mean 'I'm'? And he only said this once he finished consuming the meat. Is the action of consuming everything off of the hard disk 'finished'? In the previous statement he can reference since he used the same word 'you', if it is the same in this then that is himself, correct? In his new mind he decided on his guess, making diffrent odd noises trying to find how to move his petals in the proper fashion once more, until slowly and piecemeal, but still a replica of his voice he said "You Finished" while touching the tip of his talon against himself.
Our commander nodded once again, responding quicker this time since he had a general idea as to what the nod meant, he nodded back.
The commander reached across the table and slowly took the disk away from him, slowly.
The commander smiled before standing up and walking away to wash the two plates off at the sink as Saturn stayed at the table, making more odd clicks and small whistles and nonsense noises, experimenting as PathOwOgen did.
