Living with Chicken
Miguel was preparing to portal back to his office. Lyla popped out.
"Uhhhh Miguel. You cannot just leave the hen here." They both watch the chicken peck at the a dresser. It then proceeds to get stuck in a shoe Miguel had left nearby.
"I guess that is true. Don't tell me you are suggesting I take it back to the society."
"Well, it is either that or get your brother Gabriel to watch it."
"I will not let Gabri know I have a pet chicken."

Miguel rang the doorbell of his brother's smaller apartment that he did his freelance work out of. "Nope. I am going to take this straight back to-"
"Miggy! What's...a chicken?" Gabriel tilts his head. "It's a little early for breakfast."
"Gabri-no. It is...this is my project."
"A project with a chicken." Gabriel looked down at the chicken and back up at Miguel. He repeated this a few times before Lyla grew tired of it.
Lyla appeared. "Look, it is a chicken. Yes. Miguel is avoiding the topic, but he is caring for the chicken and does not want to take it to work and this chicken would try to walk through a closed door for days if we left it alone." Lyla nodded. She stood satisfied.
"Well...I never thought my brother would be asking me to look after his co-"
Miguel glared at his younger brother as he held the chicken out for Gabri to take. "Thanks." Miguel started clicking his watch to portal to his office. Miguel went through the portal. Lyla saluted as she left.
"Guess it's just me and you, Gallina." With that moment, Gabriel had officially named his brother's chicken 'Chicken.'

Miguel was watching his monitors. Suddenly he got a video call from his brother. "Yes, Gabri?" Lyla popped out to listen.
"Gallina is pecking at all of my wires." He moved to where Miguel could see the chicken pecking.
"You named my chicken CHICKEN?"
"Sure, focus on the fact that your chicken is named Gallina."
"I hadn't named her yet." Miguel pouts slightly. Lyla giggles.
"Well, Gallina is better than you just calling it 'the chicken.'" Gabriel smirks at his brother.
"I am coming to get Gallina." Lyla giggled more at the chicken being named the Spanish word for the female chicken. She sent a message to Jess and Peter B. Parker through their gizmos.
Lyla: Hey! Bossman is gonna be off the rest of the day. Brother bonding time!"
Peter B: Is a chicken possibly involved?
Lyla: Gallina is indeed involved!
Jess: Chicken?
