        “That’s true, I bet she can sneak into very small spaces if she wanted to. Does she like hair ties for something particular?” Momo had never heard of a bird liking that particular kind of item, it didn’t strike her as something that could be used to build a nest anyway.

        Nodding appropriately as Rody told her more about Pino, Rody was right in saying her coloring was unique, a pink bird wasn’t all that common but Momo was here for it. Holding out her hand slightly, Momo stopped a few inches shy of Pino when another question came to mind.

        “Does she have a particular spot she likes to be pet on?”

Pino’s small size had definitely been useful in the past during Rody’s not particularly law-abiding job. He was definitely grateful to have a little partner in crime. “Hm, they tend to get lost easily. I lose my own a lot; maybe she’s just trying to make sure I always have a good supply.” How thoughtful of the little bird. If that was true.

Rody smiled at the question, motioning at the area on Pino to pet. “Her head and neck. She’s got a sweet spot on her left side.”

        Peering at Pino as Rody explained that she could be a little troublemaker, somehow Momo had a hard time believing that just from a first impression glance. “This little one getting into trouble? What kind of trouble could she possibly get into aside from maybe playing with someone’s food?”

        “But that’s sweet you’ve had her almost your entire life. Was she a wild bird that just happened to befriend you or did you get her as a present?” Her coloring suggested she could be wild, but admittedly Momo wasn’t too familiar with things to do with birds.

A soft laugh came from Rody. “That’s a good example right there.” He held Pino up in his hand as if to analyze her. “Don’t let her looks fool you, though. Being this small allows her to be as sneaky as she wants. I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone’s hair ties started to go missing.”

“I got her as a gift from my dad.” Rody was relieved to have these sort of answers on hand. “I believe she’s some sort of finch or a warbler. But you definitely don’t see her kind of coloring a lot.” He lowered his arm back down to chest level, glancing between Momo and Pino.

“Did ya want to pet her?”

There was a grin on Rody’s face seeing the other’s excitement. He and Pino both knew how cute she was by now. She could probably use that cuteness to both of their advantages if it was needed.

“Deku said that?” Of course he did. “Well, I guess it is true. She’s a sweetheart who likes to get into trouble sometimes.” Rody was used to that type of question from residents in Otheon, but hearing it from Momo meant Deku never told his friends about his quirk. That was nice of him.

“I think I was around four when I got her. So practically my whole life this bundle of feathers has been by my side.”
