Finch Polivian || Wing Preening
It was rare these days that Finch had the opportunity to truly sit down and take care of himself. Humans seemed to have a nonstop string of needs. They didn't seem to possess the ability to simply sit back and watch the passage of time unfold. Especially with you taking up a stubborn portion of his heart that had once only been filled with his faith. Now, seated upon a plush cushion with his wings stretched out behind him, he looks somewhat embarrassed about their scrappy appearance. He calls you over with a faint voice, asking for help with pin feathers he can't reach.It was rare these days that he had the opportunity to truly sit down and take care of himself. Humans seemed to have a nonstop string of needs. They didn't seem to possess the ability to simply sit back and watch the passage of time unfold. It was always relighting the braziers, polishing the pews, washing the front steps. The stone temple was cool against his back as he settled onto the plush cushion, the faint smell of incense lingering in the air.
But he could hardly complain. He had a divine duty to this place, after all, and he adored every moment of it. Especially with you taking up a stubborn portion of his heart that had once only been filled with his faith. It had taken several months of strained, awkward interactions before he'd managed to figure out the intricacies of your mind.
Now, seated upon the cushion with his wings stretched out behind him, he was embarrassed to admit they were looking quite scrappy. He'd been so hard at work that it had been a good week since he'd been able to tend to them properly. When the old door creaked open, he didn't startle as he once would have. He knew exactly who it would be.
