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!

It's possible, I suppose.

But given the blanks taken so far versus how many have returned... it's probably not likely.

Are they happy?

I don't know.

Do you think that they are?

They must remember something of their life before being ants. Claude was able to find his dorm again. I'd imagine they want to go back to their teams.

As for how they're treated... that judge isn't one of the worst of them, at least.

[ nods and keeps watching the ants. ]

I hope they're not suffering, at least.

They must eat well enough to keep up their strength, if nothing else.

[ . . . looks at Mitsuru. . . then the ants, then Mitsuru again. . . ]

And I doubt they have to play in games anymore.

[ searches for somethingggg and then holds a chocolate chip cookie out for him. ]

Here.

[Blink.]

...what is it?

A cookie. . . . I got one for Chaz too.

It's food?

[ nods ]

...keep it for yourself or save it for Chaz.

You should keep up your strength too.

[ keeps holding it out towards him. ]

I have been.

[ I am not taking the cookie back, you know. ]

[We are gonna be standing here a long time. :|a]

[ yup :|a ]

We just had dinner. Put it away.

. . . after you take it, you can do whatever you want with it. But . . . I want you to take it.

I just told you. Keep it for yourself or give it to Chaz.

[ . . . wavers. . . ]

Please?
