Discussion[edit]
The Intern:
Flotsam's "special find." Acquired from Japanese import shop.
Smaller than all other ducks. Looks slightly nervous (resting nervous face?).
Station: Front desk. Greeting role. "New and still learning" — like many Noisebridge visitors.
Eddy: "I love this duck."
Stillwater: "We all love this duck."
The Intern floated uncertainly. Learning already.
