“They are beautiful of course. The most beautiful I know.” Amara responded with a wry smile.

“Yes, but yours are much more beautiful. I like them more.” Amara smiled.

Ezme’s face broke into a small smile and blushed before she spoke dejectedly. “But you like them bigger…” 

Ahem. This wasn’t how I planned this to go down.

“Nonsense. That was just to tease you.” Amara said with a smile as she ran her fingers through Ezme’s feathers. 

“To tease...Y-YOU!” Ezme howled in anger at the realization. “Shameless! Impudent!” 

“It’s too late to mind that now, Fluffles. We got to talk about our feelings, didn’t we?” Amara winked.

“We never spoke about our feelings! What feelings! There are none! And stop calling me names!” Ezme scowled.
