JACOB W. corleone
✯ — he'll be the best of us
space
Jacob had been keeping a close eye on the little bird he'd found a few days ago. She seemed to be doing alright but it the cuts had been rather deep and it made him a little nervous that she was already up and running around again. Still, she didn't seem to want to talk much to him (or anyone, for that matter) so he supposed he couldn't really do much about it. He was sure that he'd heard her say something more than a few words when she'd come but he hadn't heard her speak at all since he'd helped patch her up. Perhaps it was because she reminded him of Blue, he still felt the need to look out for her. Not only that, but it was strange for a wild bird to stay in the same place like this. No, it couldn't all be a coincidence. He was sure there was more to her than what was obvious.
When he saw his big brother nearing the avian, the boy was quick to make his way over with a wide smile, looking down on Cry as she spoke. He noticed the way that Jersey eyed the creature and he felt his heart twist. He came forward as fast as he could, bending down so he could look at the bird at eye level. He personally didn't eat birds. After having one as a pet for such a long time, it just felt wrong. However, he was well aware that Jersey didn't have any rules like that and he wanted to make sure he didn't accidentally murder a sentient, free-thinking creature. "Oh! Yeah, I found 'er jus' a few days ago! See, I patched 'er up a li'l n' I think she's been gettin' better. I heard 'er say somethin' when she got 'ere but I 'aven't 'eard much from her since." He knew Jersey would think he was crazy for insisting the bird was anything but prey but Jacob had faith in what he believed he heard. He'd met a lot of birds before and this one was special, he was sure of it. If it turned out she wasn't... well, that'd be quite unfortunate and he was sure Jersey would never let him live it down.
