        <summary>Category: Modern Day&lt;br /&gt;Keywords: drabble, radagast, wizard&lt;br /&gt;Summary: &lt;b&gt;Summary:&lt;/b&gt; The Brown Wizard in the modern world. Drabble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The vet inspects the budgerigar's broken wing, his gentle hands and voice soothing ruffled turquoise feathers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Twinkling eyes regard the little girl. &quot;She will fly again, strong and fearless as before.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The girl leaves presently with her father, reassured as her pet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the practice, the kindly, unassuming vet also seems gone. Holding the bird is a lord of dignity and power.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The budgie is not in the least alarmed. She merely blinks slowly, cocks her head, nibbles tenderly at the fingers still caressing her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And only she hears the soft voice murmuring, &quot;Yavanna watches over us both, my friend.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;~*~&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A/N:&lt;br /&gt;- &quot;Radagast is, of course, a worthy Wizard, a master of shapes and changes of hue; and he has much lore of herbs and beasts, and birds are especially his friends.&quot; (FotR, The Council of Elrond)&lt;br /&gt;- &quot;...even Gandalf, whom he thought he knew so well, [was] revealed as lord[s] of dignity and power. (FotR, Many Meetings)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;12.10.06 B-drabble for JunoMagic, who wanted to see characters from LotR in our world.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</summary>
