By the time Pinion had finished talking its mind was positively swimming in new information. It had so much to think about! Night had fallen and the flamingos had all taken up positions in and around the pool. Quill, Langoustine, and Pebble stood nearby, each on one leg, their heads tucked beneath their wings. Similarly Web and Covert had already gone to sleep in the classic flamingo position, their breathing soft and gentle and their webbed toes splayed on the grass to keep them steady as they slumbered.
Pinion found a suitably empty spot, tucked its left leg into the feathers of its belly, and buried its beak into the plumage on its back. With a sigh, the flamingo let its mind race wherever it would.
If Pinion spoke to...
- Just the crow
- The crow and the parakeets
- Just the parakeets
- The crow and stork
- The crow, the parakeets, and the stork
- The parakeets and the stork
- Just the stork

Take Some Time to Think
**Note:** I am no longer posting this story up to Furaffinity due to time constraints (it takes twice as long to format it and prepare the description template). Want to continue reading this story? You can continue it on my web site. Here is the corresponding Take Some Time to Think page there.
The end of the world is at hand and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse stride forth. Unfortunately, due to a celestial mishap, the Horsemen have all incarnated as flamingos.
Follow Pinion - Death itself in flamingo form - as it identifies its life's purpose. It's going to need your help: not only did it hatch a long way away from the other Horsemen, but it's also trapped in a zoo.
