[For Rue, who has been on the receiving end of such subtle manipulation by their keepers the whole of their life, they suspect nothing. They feel the tears that slip down down Tim's cheek to wet their feathery paw and can only see the deep swell of emotion there, how overwhelmed Tim must be after his injury and the whole eventful day and this touching moment between them.

To Rue, it feels like a breakthrough. They have no idea the very agency and freedom they fought so hard for has shifted.]


You have nothing to be sorry for, my dearest. You have brought only joy into my life and I hope with all my of heart that the same can be said of me for you. We are family. Please know that anything you need, you shall have it.

[With the difference in height, it is a great deal of leaning, but Rue stretches their neck just enough to press a peck of a kiss to Tim's forehead before finally pulling their paw away.]

Oh, I never knew I could be so happy. This beautiful day with our lovely friends and now this most thoughtful, generous gift. Thank you, Tim. Having you here today has meant so much to me.
