That would be the Refrigerator.

No.  The refrigerator was the one that I’ve made red in the following quote.

<snip>

-The ones in the desk. (Desk)
-The ones up high, along the wall opposite your cage. (Overhead Cabinets)
-The ones under the big open bench.
-The ones under the closed bench with the clear cover.
-The standing piece of furniture that seems to be ALL drawers. (Filing Cabinet)
-The human-tall one with two really big cabinets in it.
-The other human-tall one with two cabinets that hums.

<snip>

As evidenced by this post here:

Lets try the human-tall thing with two cabinets that hums, that humming sound could be interesting.

Edit:  Fun Fact:  Birds don’t have anal sphincters, so they have absolutely now control over when and where they take a crap!

Whoops!

I'll give you a +1 bonus to a suggestion of your choice for spotting that error.

The other cabinet thing contains human clothing.  There's lab coats, goggles, heavy gloves, thin, disposable gloves.  And a red bandana.

The bandanna! Let's wear it and see if it gives us special powers!

[Devastator]

How do you wear said bandanna?

drape like mayor sash!

You put it on.  The ends trail around behind you, looking very cool.

..No, doesn't seem to have given you any powers.  More powers.

Since we can sort of read lets try to see if we can't read any of the papers that are sitting around, then eat them.

Edit:  and after that, let’s see what’s in the drawers under the big open bench.

The papers sitting around on the desks have lots of numbers with names and such next to them.  It seems like math?  Like people are doing things with the numbers and tracking them with the books?

..And some of them are names of things, things you recognize like 'bird food', and then there's numbers next to them.  And other names, with more numbers, argh.

Overall you think the desk books are lists of things with information about them, along with names of people and places.  An order book?  An inventory?  You aren't quite sure.

..It's also not quite satisfying.  You think you don't have enough context for these desk papers to learn to read better from them.  You could if you had a bit of help, maybe, but not enough from reading the book alone.

You then finish off one of the books by eating it, tearing apart the metal wire in the spiral-bound book and eating the pages.  You're not really hungry yet, but perhaps you'll grow more.

For some reason the book alone doesn't feel satisfying in the way it did earlier.  Like you could get more out of it, but you need something to help you along a bit, instead of just eating a bunch of paper.

What about reading the papers inside the filing cabinet, don't think ate those.

[Devastator]

The ones from on top, the ones in machine-related booklets or the fancy coloured ones?

[King Zultan]

Lets read the fancy coloured ones.

  Ooh… how did I not see that?



Let’s check the ones under the closed bench with the clear cover.

[Devastator]

Lets read the fancy coloured ones.

Numbers!  They have pictures on them and numbers!  A whole range of them, with different colours for each one.

Let’s check the ones under the closed bench with the clear cover.

Under the closed bench is a big empty space with some metal pipes in it going into the wall.  It's more than big enough for you, but you think invisibird might have trouble.  There's one notable thing here, a large plastic bucket.

More interestingly is what's under the clear cover.  It's closed, but there's several switches, and you've seen this in operation so you know how it works.  There's a switch which starts a fan, and the whole clear cover rolls open.

You roll it open and examine what's under the lid.  There's the fan above you, a drain below you, and two switch-controlled tubes which you try out.

One sucks at you, and the other one blows air at you.  Quite hard, but fortunately they don't seem to cause problems.

There are also three beakers with powder in them.  One is white powder and looks like it was dissolved and evaporated.  The second is a browny powder, and the third one is fine, white, and crystalline.

[King Zultan]

Do we think we could get past that fan and find out what's beyond it?

What about the ones under the closed bench with the clear cover?
