AI-generated painting and story

The story
The bird had been glowing for three days, and no one in the house mentioned it. The widow who lived there brought it seeds each morning, nodded at its light, and went back to mending socks. The avadavat ate, blinked once, and remained still. The glow did not fade. It did not sing. It simply was — a quiet, luminous fact in a room that had forgotten how to be surprised.
The brief
A single avadavat perches motionless on a windowsill in a dim attic, its feathers emitting a soft, steady green glow that illuminates dust motes and peeling wallpaper, while rain streaks the glass behind it in slow, diagonal lines.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
