Chicken Run
Zodar was getting edgy...
"There's nothing to fix around here..." He said, his fingers jittery.
"You're having withdrawl symptoms. Perfectly normal." Keto said.
"There must be something I can tweak..." Zodar said, the insanity
dwelling in his voice as he searched the kitchen.
"Look, don't worry about it. Just sit down. Relax. You don't have to
think about that stuff right now."
Zodar took the advice and settled into a chair. His frustrated
expression faded into one of relaxation as his hands stopped shaking.
"Now close your eyes and imagine a peaceful meadow."
Zodar voiced his thoughts, "With trees and..."
"NO! I mean, no. There arent any pink trees on a meadow. (idiot)"
"I didn't say pi..."
Keto cut him off mid-sentance, "...Focus on the waterfalls and rivers
or whatever is around you. Block out the people who annoy you, this
is your place. It is perfect. Absolutely peaceful."
Keto seemed to be taking his own advice, as his eyes were closed and
his voice had become slower and more relaxed.
"You are a miracle worker, Charles."
Keto's eyes opened in surprise.
"So you don't want to screw anything mechanical?"
"What?!"
"I mean, are the urges gone?"
Zodar leaned back into his chair and put his feet up on the table.
He took a deep breath, "Ohhhh yeah..."
Just as soon as Zodar had put his feet on the table, Katrina walked
past and tapped his foot.
"Feet off. It'll only make it dirty." She said with a smile.
Zodar shrugged and took his feet off, resuming a normal seating
position.
"Now I'm gonna go and..."
There was a yell from various people in the house, "WHO LET THE
SMEGGING CHICKENS OUT?"
Zodar sat upright in his chair, looking for the chickens.
"Ahh, smeg."
He stood up, ran to the garden, found the nearest chicken and began
to chase it.
Puffing, he tried to clear himself. "Hey... it wasn't me... But I'll
put 'em away..." he said as he dived and successfully caught a
chicken, lifting it off the ground so it could not get traction.
"One down... several to go." Chris said quietly to himself.

OOC: And no, Zodar does not have a fetish that involves Chickens.
