AI-generated painting and story

The story
The bulbul had been waiting for someone to notice it was emotionally available. It had practiced its gaze in the mirror for three weeks, learned to tilt its head just so, and even fluffed its chest feathers on purpose. When the woman finally paused at the window, tea in hand, and whispered, 'You look like you understand,' the bulbul blinked once — slowly — and did not fly away. It stayed. It always stayed.
The brief
A small brown bulbul sits upright on a wooden windowsill in a sunlit room, its head tilted slightly as it gazes outward, feathers slightly ruffled by a quiet breeze, soft afternoon light casting long shadows across faded blue walls and a half-empty teacup on the sill.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
