Who: ANTS ... and Blanks I guess.
Where: The commons area to the west of Pyxis
When: Day 144, Late
What: :D

[It's pretty far from civilization, but a double column of giant cave ants marching in WILL attract attention.

The first of the colony seem to establish perimeters, cutting or biting lines in the ground.. Others come after, dragging blocks and wood...

There is some large scale construction going ... and happening fast.]

HA HA! Easy on the west wall there! Solid! No holes!

[I see I am a meatshield for both you and Dove now]

Foreman's ants.

W-what?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

That's what happens to people who go with him, I guess . . .

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

Th--he turns them into ants.... Th-that's...

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

Let's not think about it.

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

What are they building?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

New dorms, I think.

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

Did someone's get damaged?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

I don't think so . . .

Maybe there's going to be new teams.

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

... Really?

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

Really. Like . . . Pavo and Delphinus; they showed up after I got here.

So maybe that's happening again.

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

I-I didn't know that. D-do you think we'd be able to help them... a-at least until they got used to this place?

[tightens her hands on Ikki's shirt and lets her forehead rest on his shoulder]

W-why are there new teams coming... w-when we're still...

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

. . .

They don't care, that's why.

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

[nods slowly against him holding really still at his back]

I-I'm sorry...

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

—o-oi, are you crying?

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

[shaking her head, but isn't going to let him turn to look if he tries]

[topofthesky.insanejournal.com]

[TRYIN']

Then what's wrong?

[lilmissfired.insanejournal.com]

N-nothing.

[and sniffles to disprove that]
