Chat: Birdwatching
"Heya, Miss Fischl. Whatcha doin’?"
"Birdwatching," says Fi.
Xinyan follows the detective's gaze down to the shore, where Mona is swimming playful circles around Miitoboru.
"She seems real nice."
"Damn right."
"So are you and her...?"
"What!? No. I mean, she's really pretty—" Fi blinks, takes a sip from her hip flask, and settles back into her usual drawl. "That is, she's one looker of a bird, as fine as they get. But a PI can't afford to get attached. Sweet girls like Megs get killed to advance the plot."
"They... get killed?"
"One in four mortality rate. Per book."

^ a little Monafischl drabble I wrote last year and finally posted the other day.
Context: Set during the Golden Apple Archipelago 2 event. Also Fischl is detective noir instead of high fantasy for some reason??

🐦‍⬛ No Bird an Island 🏝️ is ongoing! It's last year's event about mirages, Summertime Odyssey, with a twist.
Each chapter is 100 words; there's 2-6 new chapters per day. There's some wonderful shitposting in the comments section.
