Amnesia Event Follow-Ups!
September 30th, Action
Oh that one's more complex. Shikamaru isn't exactly a musical person, but he's keen on patterns. There's a pause as he watches the Traveler run in circles... and then he tries to drum the tune in reverse, similar to how ti changed directions.]
September 30th, Action
the traveler stops and thrums out a peal of sound once before running over to Shikamaru. it looks up at him and chirps again, tilting its head.]

What was that? He's not sure what to think, but it was amazing.]

That was cool. Do it again?
[He cups his hands together in front of them as he says this, then makes them fly apart in mimic of the soundwave.]
September 30th, Action
uh........
hm.
it cocks its head back and then lets out a loud chirrup like before, jumping into the air and twisting around as it does so.]
September 30th, Action
[OH WAIT. Sound, right? He starts drumming his fingers in time with that he says. ta-ta-tata-ta]
That was really cool.
[Thumbs up again. 8|b]
September 30th, Action
[it mimics and then turns in a circle where it is in response to the thumbs up. apparently this thumbs thing is a good sign. the traveler is rather pleased now]
September 30th, Action
So what am I supposed to call you?
[He tries to match the tonal inquisitiveness he heard before, as he points to the Traveler.]
September 30th, Action
it tilts stops running in circles and tilts its head at Shikamaru, confused.]
♬?
September 30th, Action
But let's try this again. Shikamaru points back at himself, drumming as before.]
Shikamaru.
[...and then pointing back at the traveler. Anything?]
September 30th, Action
[it repeats his name and looks at him again.
after a moment, it chirps again and a little symbol appears in the air and on the front of its chest for just a moment before fading.]
♩
September 30th, Action
There's a little bit of dirt, where a patch of grass didn't grow. Shikamaru makes a crude sketch of the symbol he saw from memory there, with his finger.]
Nice to meet you.

Half-squawks? It's definitely not a chirp; something between a startled squawk and a chime, though.]

but. no, it doesn't know. it weaves back and forth before chirruping again, little runes popping up by its head]

I'm...Raven. [The card said it and no one has corrected her.] Are you a person?

[it tries to mimic the sound of her voice in the limited tones it has and then turns in a circle.
what is a person?]
no subject
I don't know a word to use for you. [And she feels bad about it.]
no subject
[it turns in a circle the other direction and then looks up at Raven, tilting its head. it doesn't mind what it is called, it just enjoys meeting people]

After a minute it appears to trigger something else and she changes abruptly from confused orange bird to startled person.]

the traveler jumps and runs for safety, trips on its scarf halfway to a tree and falls face first into the ground]
