if you’re going to pull something like this, you gotta make it clearer. i now watch my little man fade away in real-time, like everything else in this world that isn’t the DIGITAL PARROT I THOUGHT WOULD NEVER LEAVE ME. i told one of them that if i didn’t have a cat now, i would just leave it open all day to hang with that sweet little dude.Ĭut to yesterday when i read the reviews for the first time.
i immediately texted my friends and told them to download the app, because never before had an app changed my life for the better with such little effort. immediately, i was blown away by the visuals, the sound effects, and the dialogue. when i downloaded this app, i was just looking for a fun little friend. Even if you’re not the closest to each other, it’s really beautiful to have existed in the same space together for a while.
People and animals leave our lives, and it made me think a little bit of my father-in-law who passed a couple years ago. Still, we made a beautiful garden together, and a nice book, and a gallery. I didn’t think I would! I didn’t feel like I had been that attached to him. and got a bit teary-eyed, to my surprise. It felt kinda like I was indulging the game, and sometimes I tapped through the cute conversations a little impatiently, but it was nice to have him cheer me on and be consistently positive and supportive.Īnd then on our last day together, I got a little sentimental and took a screencap of him in our fully-grown garden. I think I would have lost interest pretty quickly if he’d just been a self-care buddy to check in on every so often, but I did want to make use of the limited time we had together, so I kept popping in to do whatever Jubjub wanted to do. I knew going in that my little bird friend-who I named Jubjub-was not going to be around forever (which admittedly feels a little goofy given that parrots live for decades, but suspension of disbelief and all that).
