[video; open] operation: name that bibiru

[bestofthevein]

So, uh, I could use some help.

[The video is clearly being filmed outside, and the camera is focused on a little white bibiru with a crooked wing and patch of brown fur over one eye. It is doing what bibirus do best: look cute and eat grass. Kit's voice is audible before he turns the yimo around so he can be seen by the camera.]

Help me name this damn thing.

[he points the camera back at the bibiru and whistles once to get its attention. It perks up cutely, ears and nose a-wiggle. It squeaks.]

[Rutile solemnly contemplates the bibiru, tapping black-gloved fingers against their chin. They are somewhere in the city, but wherever it is, it is dark and unrecognizeable.]

Where I come from, we simply call each other what we are. It would be an issue if you had more than one, but given that you don’t, Bibiru seems appropriate to me.

[They lean into the camera, as if it will help them see the bibiru better on the tiny screen.] Is its coloring normal? Perhaps you could say Brown Bibiru, or Spotted Bibiru, for accuracy.

[Valdis is both amused and shocked that Kit hasn't named his pet yet. Despite everything that happened recently, she has a smile.]

Flekk...It means 'Spot' in my native tongue, but is an overall more original name.

[ He definitely feels your enthusiasm, Ilda. ]

What about 'Sycamore'?

It's a type of tree that sheds it bark, taking on the appearance of having brown and white patches.

[Miles squints at it for a moment, then says, authoritatively:] Cerberus.

[Devin is smirking, and no one is surprised. The incoming needling is delivered with enough amusement to be clear he's not making fun of Kit to be mean.]

Crowdsourcing, are we? Is it really that difficult to pick a name?

[ grinning ] What theme are you going for? Fun or pretentious?

[Conan peers at the bibiru solemnly. Clearly this was a serious matter.]

Watson.
