The story
The razorbill had been deemed provisionally heroic after successfully retrieving a lost sock from behind the radiator — an act witnessed only by the dust motes and the attic’s resident squirrel, who nodded approvingly before fleeing. No ceremony followed. No medal was struck. Instead, it was given the stool, the bulb, and the quiet expectation that it would remain there, upright and attentive, until further notice. It has not moved in three days. The boxes remain unopened. The squirrel has not returned.
The brief
A lone razorbill stands rigidly on a wooden stool in a dimly lit, cluttered attic, one wing slightly raised as if mid-salute, surrounded by stacked cardboard boxes labeled 'Misc. Heroism' and a single flickering bulb casting a yellow glow over its black and white feathers.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
