Love and aging could be a theme. Since it's an old bird, it might explore how love is different or the same in old age compared to youth.
One possible theme could be survival. If the bird catcher is in a tough situation, catching birds might be a means of survival, either for food or to trade for other necessities.
One possible theme could be isolation. If the boy is singled out by the bird in a scary way, he may feel extremely alone and cut off from the rest of the world.
Well, one possible theme could be nature and man's connection to it. Since it involves a 'bird man', it might show how humans can co - exist and interact with the natural world of birds.
Another theme could be freedom. Maybe the little bird was caged at first and then managed to escape and regain its freedom in the true story. It could show the longing for freedom that all living beings have.
One possible theme could be friendship. Fern might form friendships with other animals during the story.
Well, themes like beauty in the unusual are common. Despite the gargoyle being a symbol of horror, there is beauty in its existence that the love interest discovers. Also, isolation is a theme. The gargoyle is often isolated, and the love story could be about breaking that isolation. And there's the theme of the power of love. Love can overcome the fear and horror associated with the gargoyle.
The story could have themes such as the search for true love. The gay characters are on a journey to find someone who truly understands and loves them. Another theme might be the importance of communication. In a relationship where they may face extra challenges, good communication is key to making it work. There could also be a theme of family, whether it's about creating their own family unit or dealing with their families of origin and how they react to their relationship.
Love in the face of adversity is surely a theme. As refugees, they have to deal with so many challenges like finding shelter, food, and acceptance. Their love has to survive through all these tough situations.
Imagine a bird figurine made of gold. It was found in an old treasure chest. A treasure hunter who discovered it couldn't bear to part with it. He carried it with him everywhere. He named it 'Goldie'. He felt that the figurine brought him good luck. This was his love story with the bird figurine, a story of possession and a sense of connection to something precious.
One big challenge would be the difference in their habitats. The dolphin is an aquatic animal, while the bird lives mainly in the air or on land. They can't easily be in the same place all the time. Another challenge could be communication. Their languages are very different, with the dolphin using clicks and whistles and the bird using chirps and songs. It might be hard for them to fully understand each other's feelings and intentions.
