AI-generated painting and story
The story
The woodcreeper had promised to arrive at noon, sharp, to inspect the rafters for structural integrity. It arrived at 12:03, blinked once, then spent seventeen minutes preening its left tertial before declaring the beam 'adequate for now' and flying off toward the chimney, where it would later be found napping upside down, having forgotten its own appointment.
The brief
A woodcreeper perches stiffly on a wooden beam in a dim attic, one wing slightly askew, its feathers ruffled by a draft from a cracked skylight casting pale blue light over dust motes and a single abandoned sock.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
