That was usually a pretty good indicator that you were not, in fact a ghost.

"If I ever find my hair ties again I will," she commented lightly, though turned her eyes to smile down at the Augurey that was still tugging her hair. Conveniently for her, Daehyun had the snacks ready to go. She lightly giggled as the Augurey on his lap moved towards the glass he was holding. "I think your one also is feeling pretty hungry!"

Still, now focussed on feeding the baby that was in her hands she walked over to where Daehyun was, dropping down into a cross-legged position herself as she reached over to pull one of the dried insects out of the jar. Holding it near the baby in question, it had finally noticed and left her hair alone, now moving towards the insect in Shera's hand.

Smiling softly she assisted by bringing it closer to the Augurey, cooing as it ate the little insect from her hand.
Laughing, Daehyun nodded in agreement to Shera's words. "My thoughts exactly. Besides," he looked down at the baby bird he was holding, smiling fondly when it leaned into his touch once again as he softly rubbed the side of its neck. "I'm sure they can be kept in a soundproof sanctuary if their collective cries are so bad." There must be a charm that ought to do the trick. "Or just wear earplugs." Then again, he'd never heard a choir of fifty Augureys crying at the same time, but he would find a way around it, anyway.

His was hungry, as well?

It had taken him a moment to realize what Shera was saying, but eventually he looked down and saw the small Augurey reach its neck out towards the jar of insects, its fuzzy wings flapping helplessly on the sides for balance. "Are you, now?" he asked the bird. Giggling, he took a couple of dried insects out and held them in his palm for the hungry bird to take and, sure enough, they were gone a few moments later.

As Shera joined him on the floor, he grinned at the sight of her cooing at the Augurey she was feeding. "See, you've already cheered up an Augurey." Point proven that she was good for the wailing birds. "I wonder if we can adopt them..." He would adopt every being in that nursery and nearby barn that didn't have an owner, but that was beside the point.
