Makko Town was, according to the pamphlet, 'A Quaint Seaside Town' and this weekend there was a mini festival there where people came from semi-far and somewhat-wide to fish, eat fish dishes, play faire games, listen to live music of the generally inoffensive variety, and drink beer and cider.
All in all it sounded like a pretty good day out for what he hoped would be his last day of freedom. Working at the Meat Palace did not appeal but it would pay the bills... theoretically. Anyway, admission to the festival was free and thanks to Valour he had food he could cook - barbecues were allowed on the beach - and if he was really lucky he might even manage to sell a couple of the sculptures he'd brought along. He didn't have a traders' stall though so he'd have to make sure he was well away from any stalls there were, and hope nobody official spotted him and threw him out.
It was just about lunchtime when Valour touched down on the shore; Taavi slid down from the large bird's back and adjusted the hang of his backpack, a small one he'd picked up a few days ago from a thrift store because constantly lugging around his huge one was silly. Right though, where first? Taavi cast around the lively scene and tried to make a decision, which was a lot more difficult than it sounded.

Valour, having heard the stranger's muttering, widened his eyes and turned his head from side to side to regard him through each eye in turn? <> He hadn't gone that much over the water.
Taavi, also having heard the muttering, flushed furiously and bit his lip. Should he... say something? Valour had said something, clearly not something polite, so he should probably... something, yeah. "Uh, sorry." Taavi approached the unfamiliar red-head, pulling his goggled down around his neck. "I didn't think we went over the water, I didn't men to ruin anyone's finishing... um, sorry."

"Um... you probably shouldn't shout, if you don't want to scare them," Taavi offered helpfully, moving a little closer to the grumpy man because he still felt bad and as though he ought to make up for his mistake. "And, uh, Valour is a Braviary.... Did you mean Pidgey family? Because... well he's not. Err. There's... quite a big difference really. If you look at the shape of the wings he's made for soaring and endurance, whereas the Pidgey family is focused on speed. Ah, it's interesting to see crossbreeds between the two because though they're definitely one or the other egg moves isn't all they can inherit! They'll often be a bit more balanced between the two than their parents." Oh, he'd rambled hadn't he? "Err, but, err.... Were you fishing for lunch? Because I have some fish and... well... if I scared off your catch.....?"
