The story

The avadavat had been promised promotion if it dressed for the part. It arrived at dawn, feathers carefully pressed, tie knotted with tweezers. The secretary, a disinterested moth, glanced up from its ledger and sighed. No one had told it the position was for a human. It waited anyway. The tea went cold. The light shifted. It did not move.

The brief

A small avadavat bird stands stiffly upright on a velvet cushion, wearing a miniature three-piece suit with a bow tie and pocket square, under a single shaft of pale afternoon light in a cluttered study filled with unread books and a half-empty teacup.

The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
