The birds fan out. Kaeya stays where he is, offering the birds a leaf at a time. He smiles at Shaan and tills his head slightly.

Then focuses on a dark blue bird that comes right up to him. His voice is low and melodic. “Hello again. You’ve been following me lately, hm? I don’t mind. But why not stick a little closer?” The bird coos and he reaches up to gently stroke the bird’s beak.

He glances to the side to see how Shaan is doing.
