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.

Zine photographer came today. Took photos. We looked "charmingly weird" (their words).
