So, I don't know if you guys remember these. Later, I made another two (the Sleepy Hollow one I was threatening in the comments to one of those posts, and a vaguely Bollywood-themed one), bringing the total up to six.

When we moved back home, I hung all six from my ceiling. I kind of loved them, and that's a big deal; I don't like much of anything I make or write anymore.

Right now, three are still hanging from my ceiling; the steampunk bird, the Sleepy Hollow bird, and the Bollywood bird. The other three - and believe me when I say this, as the entire house has been torn to pieces - are not anywhere.

Predictably, nobody will admit to knowing where they have gone.

I don't even know why anybody would take them. They're not even worth any money. I just made them, and they're pretty.

Do you have a cleaner that could be interrogated? Has a tradesman come in lately? Seriously.

D:

I just. D: Was it in the move that they disappeared, or did they vanish from your ceiling? Not that it makes a huge difference. :((((((((

Well, the thing is, they looked beautifully antique. No one takes that kind of care just with decoration any more = those MUST be old. And they're portable and light. And if your cleaner is BFF with your mom, she knows you don't have a lot of say around the house. Etc.

You might be surprised. My mother, who's slightly mercenary and has no discernable moral compass, was a house cleaner for years and had, well, a sideline at the pawnbrokers' (whose house she cleaned).
