52nd Resurrection

Action A: [Some of you might have noticed your Christmas light and decorations going missing. None of the big or heavy things, like lawn ornaments, but things like tinsel, small wreaths, strings of lights and the like are disappearing. Or maybe you'll catch the culprits in the act - two large crows who quietly chatter and squawk at one another, as if talking. They might be un-stringing your lights with their beaks and claws, or trying to figure out a way to lift a larger decoration, or both trying to pick up a wreath so they can carry it together. Do you investigate? Catch them? Chase them off?]

Action B: [The bird thieves are not hiding their spoils, dumping them on the lawn and porch of 337 Brady Lane. Once they've collected enough, they caw loudly to get their master's attention. Theo comes out to argue with them.]

What the hell are you doing?

[One of the birds cheerfully flaps while holding a string of lights in his beak. The other caws at Theo.]

Because I don't give a damn about Christmas. Where did you get all of these?!

[Feel free to approach/accost/etc.!]

That explains why that pile is infested with tinsel. Let me guess, you don't wanna decorate and they think you're being silly?

If they want to decorate, let 'em. Not my fault they don't have hands. It's up to the rest of my house if they want to decorate or not. But knowing Mayfield, last year they did it for us anyway.

Holy shit! I'm sorry! Stupid inbox....

I know. Don't wanna risk your neck going up on the ladder for the lights, huh? [He gives Theo a GENTLE pat on the back.]

[EYEROLL] Yeah, exactly. You know I'm as festive as they come.

Hey. Don't tempt me to make you actually be what your sarcasm suspects.
