Action: I notice some odd footprints in the mud leading towards some bushes. Let’s see what awaits…
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): NIL

You open the bushes and reveal a stash. You’ve gotten this far, so you push your hand into the pile of items. Pulling out, you have a Duck Feed: Birdseed in your hand! Sweet!

Action: Taking my birdseed to the forest to see if any ducks (or any other birds..?) are enjoying the shade
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): Bird seed

So close! You were off by 2, sad. But the ducks enjoy the birdseed! You think you see a flurry of reddish feathers, or were they black? You pout a little at missing it, but still finish the bag out. You try to follow the direction you saw it go, but only end up lost. Wandering around, you found s bag of Duck Feed: Grapes! And a sign that says: Not all who wander are lost. “I am!” You exclaim with a sigh.

Action: Alright, y'know what? Forget the sketches, I'm going video this time. I bring along one of my extra cameras (just in case something horrible happens) to catch the ducks and geese in action. Hopefully I can manage a few nice moments on film.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a

Phenomenal shots. Your abstract images have transferred into abstract videos! They seem a little quiet and boring, learning the patience of wildlife videographers go through to capture documentaries. You nearly doze off until some action happens! The geese are fighting each other! Eventually the loser runs off to hide behind you, the winner flapping their wings and proudly swimming off. You pat their head, feeling bad about recording it all. With a sigh, you delete the video. In thanks, the goose hands you a Spring Hoof Polish.

Action: Today I bring "The Little Duck" and more lettuce for the ducks to snack on. I have a lot more energy after napping last time so I make fun voices for the characters and even act out some of the scenes for them.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): Lettuce (wow this is my last duck feed, I didn't think I'd ever run out!)

This event has many ducklings quacking and goslings honking. Their excited squeaks make some of the younger and newer parents nervous, but after sitting in they settle down. You hand out the lettuce, the timely afternoon snack you provide. The babies run into the pond to play, splashing and acting out dramatic scenes. True or not, it reminds you of it. Getting up to leave, you notice a bag of Duck Feed: Grapes! Just when you thought you’d run out haha.

    Action: ow ow ow!

    Í guess I'm going to need a chair for the presentation to the ducks now, so I set up my presentation stand at an appropriate height.

    As a means to attract listeners to the plan, the invitation paper is made of lettuce leaves for all the ducks, and I tell Earnest to be clear that they get the tickets (the second leaf) as they arrive, as he goes to deliver the invites to the ducks.

    Alteo and the swan friend are the bouncers and the security, of course.

    I make sure to make the presentation place separately to where most of the other duck watchers are. We can't be observed publicly to be leading the ducks to world domination
    Duck Feed: lettuce

The invitation and provided snack of Lettuce was popular: VERY popular! It’s almost like the whole pond showed up! You hand out info pamphlets, not edible ones, hoping they follow along. You deliver the information as best you can, the nodding along seeming to be understanding. You ask them to turn in the yes or no slip at the bottom, the agreement to work with you. Most had assumed it was another snack and others turned in tickets unrelated. Like a 10C$ off any custom ticket! Nice, but useless here. Facepalm.

Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a

You cry at your bench and an old nearly blind and deaf lady comforts you. She keeps telling you “It’ll be ok, Ducky.” Which you don’t really understand, but her gentle and kind words bring comfort. “Have this treat.” She hands you an Ultrasound. How blind must she be??

I decide to rest on the bench again. I scatter some grapes on it as well as the ground, hoping a duck will be my friend.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional):
Grapes

A Duck is now your friend! They love the grapes and end up falling asleep next you, like I nearly did writing this. Makes me jealous a little lol! Congrats on your new friend!

Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a

You stare off into space, going farther and farther. Past the moon, the. The sun and other planets. Before you know it you have passed out of the Milky Way. Milky Way... that makes you hungry and you snap back to reality. Time to go get a snack and some Duck Feed: Peas for the fowls!

Action: seeing as i have perfectly good bird seed and my little baby cygnet i've affectionately named Cygourney needs to see their friend, i bring it with me to Cygourney's play date in case they or their friends get hungry while i read my books under the same tree i usually sit under.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): birdseed

Cygourney and the other cygnets players together, chirping and struggling to honk in their wing flapping and chasing. The other swan parent comes and sits next to you, deciding to take a small nap since you are awake. Though what parent doesn’t have one eye open anyways. During their adventures, Cygourney seemed to have found something. It was nearly as big as them as they races over to give it to you. You were given a Breeding Ticket! They run back to play with their friends once more.

Action: I visit the pond again today to watch the ducks, geese, and fish some more! I also bring along my sketchbook to see if I can successfully draw them this time!
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): None

You open up your sketchbook, settling down into the most comfortable position you can muster. The softest grass in the best shade with minimal breeze. It’s ideal. Nothing can go wrong. That is until you realized your pencil was left at home. A large sigh until you realize you can go and use natural items! You pick all sorts of natural dyes and crush them in your fingers, finger painting the flowers and colorful ducks. It turned out well you think, ignoring the fingerprints throughout it. You go to wash your hands in the pond, the natural pigments having stained your hands. When you finish shaking them dry, you spot a bag of Duck Feed: Birdseed. Sweet!

    Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a

The models pose elegantly, knowing exactly how to sit, hold their wings, and even curl their neck for the absolute best shots. You debate putting them on Duckagram, but remember they are geese. Maybe Gooseagram? Or would it it be Fowlagram? You sit here debating it and your geese stopped posing, instead finding a bag of Duck Feed: Peas! Even models need a snack break.

ArithMedic wrote:Username: ArithMedic
Action: Today I don't have any food, but I have hands to reward the ducks with pets and I tell them a story I wrote about a young duckling who lives with his mean swan aunt, uncle, and cousin. One day, on his birthday, a big fuzzy goose comes and takes him away and tells him that his parents died fighting off the Bird-That-Must-Not-Be-Named, who wanted to kill him. It was an evil heron who wanted to take over all of the ponds. The goose takes him to another pond with lots of other ducklings and he befriends a bushy brown one and a bright red one, while a white duckling makes fun of them. They find out that there was a flower hidden in the pond that could heal broken wings and that someone was trying to steal it, so they track them down and find out that it is the evil heron, trying to regain his strength. The young duckling finds that the flower is tangled on his legs and does his best to keep it away from the heron until his friends get help. Luckily, help arrived just in time and they are able to prevent the heron from getting it, although the flower was destroyed in the process. The day ends happily, even though the duckling has to go home to his aunt and uncle.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): None :(

The little ducks sit and enjoy the story, some looking like they recognize it from somewhere. I only know because you mentioned it earlier in the chat, otherwise I’d have no clue and try to figure out how it was Cinderella in a Duck fighting people haha. The enjoyment is known all over and the fuzzy ducklings enjoy your warm hands for pets and comfort during the scary parts where their parents already have all their siblings hiding. A big goose waddles up at the end, earning the sparkling eyes of the young ones. The goose sets down a Spring Paint, winking to them all before waddling away.

Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): peas

You write and write, occasionally tossing a few peas out to the passing water fowl. The more you write, the less you toss out. By the time you finish your masterpiece, your peas should have been gone. And they were, but instead of peas you find a bag of Duck Feed: Grapes sitting in their place. What an oddity!

Albino and Lath will be the next post! Previous post has been added to front <3
Sorry about lack of story. I’ll story it and add to front tomorrow, just writing what everyone got!

Stories updated and adding to the front now! <3

    Action: With some tactical support at least, we can start with these ducks before looking for more recruits.

    I'm going to use the game of chess to teach the Ducks tactics. The pieces are bits of bird seed and when their pieces take one of their opponent's pieces, they get to eat it, so they have an incentive to learn quickly (so they can eat more birdseed).

    There'll be a lot of random pieces eaten early, but even one actual tactician duck is a huge asset.

Action: I have decided to attempt to learn how to speak duck. Today, I listen to the ducks quacking, concentrating very hard on trying to figure out what they are saying. I have no idea how accurate it is, but I now have a trilogy's worth of Duck Lore made up in my head. As thanks, I offer the ducks some birdseed.

Action: Man, my sense of direction is terrible! I can't tell if I'm getting any closer to the edge of the forest, or heading deeper instead. I might have to start eating these grapes myself for sustenance... But I think I hear a rustling in the bushes, maybe its someone who can help! At least I have these grapes to offer as thanks (or a bribe, as the case may be).
