And help me make an important decision in the process. Not that all decisions should be made this way, but there’s a reason behind the flip a coin thing. I’ll explain later. I’ll start. Heads. ---

Heads. I didn’t flip a coin at all, I just figured it was a 50-50 chance of me picking one or the other. ---

I was lucky to get the eagle though, the reverse is just some kind of nondescript plant life. ---
