: Hmmmmm. That bird looks and sounds familiar. I seem to recall a bird like that in context of rain and flood and drenching red hat. Oh! Now I remember! That awful night I tried to help that French girl....what was her name? Joan of Squark? Bone of Dark? The one with the screwy accent......
: Yeah, I remember! I fell in! And that bird saved me. Well shoot, maybe I should just give him a cracker and a nice head scratch. Come to think on it, he looks to be a tough old bird anyways.....probably all stringy and even wet-cooked he'd be like chewing on leather.
: Here birdie, here's a nice cracker.........wanna head rub? My, that's a sharp beak you have there, birdie.....

"I'm a good birdie, I'm a good birdie! Basil wants a cracker, and a head scratchie!"
(Hey, he's falling for it, and stepping right up here, close-like. I'll let him get one, eeensy, little bit closer, and then I'll chomp the heck out of him! Wait a tick...what's that he's got in his hand? A CRACKER!! Well, by golly, maybe he's not so bad after all. I DO love my crackers, sartain!)
"Cracker? Cracker? Basil wants a cracker!"
(He just handed it right over, and seems to have forgotten about that there skillet. Ummmm...munch! Crunch! It's a darn good cracker, too. Maybe I was too harsh in my judgement of the Dear Little Fellow. Think I'll lean way over here, and let him scratch my head, too....aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh, that's nice! Can this mean Peace in Mohicanland again??)
