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 think I might make it worse.

Not talking to her will make it worse, too.

...none of these options are really any good, are they.

Nnnooo, not really.

Maybe we should just all punch each other until we feel okay if that's how you guys communicate.

I'd have to pull my punches though so I don't accidentally break anyone...

. . . that doesn't work for everyone, I don't think.

And I can talk to people normally. Sometimes.

Which is good because I don't want to be the guy who breaks your jaw while being friends.

And I don't want to beat on a friend, either.

And you'd be hard to spar with...

Ah! Van and I sparred with swords! That was pretty fun!

But I bet it would hurt.

A lot.

...you had no eyes once so you can't uhm. Give me this talk.

Ahh? Bringing that up is cheating.

And it's not a talk, it's a friend being concerned.

I'm working on it...

...or I'll just shove it down my pants next time like I did back home.

That's probably a good idea.

. . .

Did you know there's a vampire that drinks out your stress?

. . . no, I didn't.

He bit Quartz and he didn't get mad even when I called him tiny, it was so weird.
