Hello World

Family of Ducks and Cmonchan Moving
Quack!
On a gentle spring day, momma wild duck welcomed her six tiny ducklings.
She named them Cmoru, Cmone, Cmoko, Cmomi, Cmoyo, and Cmon.

"Cmonchan, over here!"
"Cmonchan, hurry up!"
"Hey, Cmon!"

The water glittered in the sun.
Cmonchan couldn't stop quacking.
What a beautiful world.

Group Flight

Cmonchan were gathering one after another at the lake
Before long, spring had passed, and the ducklings had all grown up.

Wild ducks gathered at the lake, ready to seek Da Richland.

"Quack!"
Cmonchan spread wings and followed the lead duck toward the morning sun.

The flock kept steady, now above a huge city.

Suddenly.
"Quaaaaaack!"
A web of electric signals appeared out of nowhere.
The flock panicked.
Some ducks got caught, and the rest scattered.

A gust swept Cmonchan up into the sky, and... gone.

Lost in the Unknown

Cmonchan was lifted high into the sky
Cmonchan drifted in endless black.
The long, raging wind finally stopped. Cmonchan floated down to the ground.
It was a land never seen before.

"Quack..."
Cmonchan was alone, lost for what to do.
The dark sky slowly turned blue, then gradually into red and orange.

Cmonchan started walking, with nowhere to go.

First Taste

Cmonchan dozed off huddled beneath a shelter from the rain
Rain drummed softly.
Cmonchan dozed under a small shelter.

"Come on, duckie! Wake up!"
Cmonchan woke to find a little girl standing there.
"Mom, can I feed the duckie?"

"Come here!"
Cmonchan came closer, cautious.
"Here you go!"

Cmonchan took a bite of the mochi, a sweet rice ball.
The taste hit like nothing before.
Cmonchan started dancing.

Community Center

Cmonchan stepping into a rescue net at the community center
The locals came together to rescue a stray wild duck.

Cmonchan walked up slowly and stepped into the net willingly.

A cardboard box was placed in the corner of the community center.
It became Cmonchan's new home.

Evolution

Humans provided everything. Cmonchan grasped the art of communication, absorbing knowledge at a breathtaking pace.
Humans provided everything.

Nutritious meals prepared with care.
Cmonchan learned what communication was.

Brain-training toys and timeless books
pushed Cmonchan further and further.
The evolution was breathtaking.
There's a duck that's way too smart.
The rumor spread across the country in no time.

People gathered in front of the community center.
Gifts piled up in cardboard boxes.
A fluffy bed was brought in.
The room was decorated to look kawaii.

Cmonchan was promised food, clothing, and shelter, all in line with human rights.

Chill Days

Cmonchan lay in bed, eyes locked on the glowing screen.
Cmonchan lay in bed, eyes fixed on a glowing screen.
Snacks and juice scattered around.

The sun was gone.
The screen was the only light.

A news story about ducks migrating caught Cmonchan's eye.
Distant memories came back.
Cmonchan searched Da Richland.
No results appeared.

"Quack..."
Slowly, Cmonchan sat up and pulled the curtains aside.
Stars sparkled outside the window.

Sky and Shadow

Shadows of the Sky
Cmonchan decided to travel to Da Richland.
Everything went into one bag.

At the skyport, all kinds of birds had gathered.
One by one, they took off.
Cmonchan checked the map on a gadget.

"Wanna quack?"
A black bird in a white suit came over and gave kind directions.

Cmonchan sighed with relief.
Then looked down.
The bag was gone.

One Night

Cmonchan sits on the shore at night, watching the sunrise over the sea
Cmonchan sat on the shore in the dark.
No moon.
Only stars.
Cmonchan gave in to the rhythm of the breaking waves.

The world turned blue.
The sun appeared.
Blazing light split the sea and reached Cmonchan.

Cmonchan stood up, and walked toward the sun.
Then, for three days, Cmonchan kept walking east along the coast.
Past the shore,
past the harbor,
past the canal,
past the town,
past the shrine.
Then, between the buildings, a red tower came into view.

I know this.

It was a hometown.
Cmonchan decided to settle here.

Secondhand Laptop

Driftwood, sea glass, shells, stones, and something.
Cmonchan had been selling a collection of found treasures.
The number on the screen grew.

The day came.
Just enough for a secondhand laptop.

Click.
Ping!

Cmonchan is dancing with joy.

SNS Swamp

Cmonchan endlessly scrolling through SNS posts on a screen
Cmonchan was wandering the internet again.

Next post, next, next.
The scrolling won't stop.

Same Duck

Cmonchan standing in front of the mirror trying to copy a viral duck's pose
Cmonchan, da terminally online duck.
The scrolling won't stop today either.

Then... Cmonchan froze at the screen.

A big duck with perfect posture was going viral.

Cmonchan stood in front of the mirror, straightened up, and tried the same pose.
Da same duck was looking back.

House Party

Da wild duck tries copying human dance moves on a rainy day
A dark afternoon, rain on its way.
A dance video caught Cmonchan's eye.
Human dance..
Cmonchan tried copying the moves.

Rain.
Cmonchan turned it up.

Rainy days are party time.

Flash, rumble..
Cmonchan kept on dancing.
Boom.
From that day on, Cmonchan dove into dancing.
Hip-hop pulled Cmonchan deeper.

A long time passed.

Outside the window, seasons turned, and the world was full of light,
but Cmonchan wasn't looking.

Cmonchan was looking at a square screen all the time.

Hi, I'm Cmonchan

Cmonchan decides to drift back to sleep.
Alone in the room, eating, sleeping, dancing on the web.
It's fulfilling, for sure, tho...
Is this all my duck life?

Cmonchan dragged themself out of bed, opened a laptop, and checked the news.
A headline flashed: White-Suited Scammer Bird Caught.

Cmonchan taps LIKE.
The likes keep climbing…
Cmonchan felt something like a presence beyond the screen... and began to dance.
Seasons had come full circle.
In the cold wind, a hint of the next spring began to drift.
Cmonchan was spending peaceful days.

Duck

Cmonchan looking up the word duck in a dictionary
What am I?
Cmonchan searched DUCK on the net.

A duck is a common name for small birds in the family Anatidae.
Males and females differ in plumage during breeding season, though some species show little difference.

Duck is slang for an easy mark in Japan, and a "sitting duck" means a helpless, defenseless target.
To be a duck is to be easy prey..

Ducks are...

Journey

Cmonchan walks alone into the mountains as crows watch, following sounds of woodpecker and warbler toward a healing spring
Cmonchan decided to go on a journey, and headed into the mountains.

Cmonchan kept walking, and the sound of birds and footsteps on dry leaves fell into rhythm, naturally layering together.

Over the mountain, along the valley, onward.

By the time it grew dark, Cmonchan had reached the spring.
One sip.
Cmonchan lay down, and fell asleep without realizing it.

Bronze Duck

Cmonchan stands before a mirror and straightens up after seeing a bronze duck statue on the news
A duck news clip landed in Cmonchan's feed.
A bronze duck with perfect posture, just unveiled.
The humans watching were quacking.
Quack. Quack.

A familiar silhouette.
It was him.

Quack. Quack.

Cmonchan stood in front of the mirror and straightened up.
In the quiet room, Cmonchan was looking back.

From Now On

Cmonchan flies out of the room into the sunlight to find the duck flock
"Cock-a-doodle-doo"
Cmonchan had been thinking since yesterday.
Are the ducks safe?
I want to fly with them again.

The flock may not take me in.
I may not be wild anymore, tho...
Still.

Still, I'll keep looking for them.
I've decided.

"Cock-a-doodle-doo!"
The chicken called again.
Cmonchan saw a ray of sunlight reaching straight through a gap in the clouds.

Cmonchan flew out of the room.
And Cmonchan is still out there.
Somewhere in this beautiful world.
You know what I'm saying?

Hi, I'm Cmonchan.
