I can confirm that this happened once. I think hornet was drunk off of flea brew again at that time, too.

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

a tiny mite skitters in, hands you a trombone, and then skitters out.

…I hath not learned this instrument…

Erm. Toccata, would you like a trombone…?

@muckroach-official

[muckroach-official]

hmm. Let me give that a try...

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

SINCE WHEN COULDST THEE DO THAT??????

[muckroach-official]

Well, I don't know actually. I guess i just have the natural talent for it.(definitely cannot say the same for my organ piano skills though, yeesh.)

[muckroach-official]

One of your species has taken a strange liking to me. I don't know what's going on, but it hasn't harmed me yet. I'm finding myself growing more and more affectionate towards this creature.

Any advice???

@the-vessel-called-wander

Give lots of food and lots of pets!

(Also you may not want to let it near hornet. It might try to bite her.)

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

you should have a fog dog

A fog dog? As from a bog? PAH! What a slog! You come to mine blog to share this dialogue? An analogue for nonsense, I feel. Begone from my smog-filled home!

[latlequin1]

Does @muckroach-official count?

[muckroach-official]

Yes. I am the Bog Boi.

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

So tell me Phantom

Was the

ANT ASS

Divine?

(@muckroach-official)

…….

Yes. Oh my fucking gods yes.

[muckroach-official]

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

Hey Phantom, can I try out the Organ?

*A few mins later, Toccata then proceeds to make the most awful, ear-scarping string of organ piano noise ever. You could even say it was Absolute Dogshit.*

(@muckroach-official)

Er, ah-Toccata, dear, that was…a grand first attempt! Um…perhaps we might practice elsewhere before attempting again…?

[muckroach-official]

....yes. We definitely should.

By the pale ones I hope no one heard that-

Bappie? Pibu child, what is that you have there?

[baby-bell-beastling]

bhrrurrrhr :)

(burrerfy :9 )

[moss-mother-offical]

Bappie!? Bappie, don’t do that! That’s- where’d that come from? Don’t eat… oh there it goes.

Peculiar new plant there… but… that’s- Pibu child, we’ve been over this, not eating random plants we find! That’s poisonous, you could be poisoned now!

Botheration…!- I-

[baby-bell-beastling]

hrrgrhrbrr hrr r

(it taste funny)

[moss-mother-offical]

Get-! Get that out of your mouth! Pibu, drop it!

If it tastes funny then its bad for you! Come- here-!

(Mozs dashes towards the beastling, trying to pry her jaws apart and remove the potentially-dangerous petals she’s trying to consume.)

[baby-bell-beastling]

hrrhrr hrrfhrtgfrrr

[moss-mother-offical]

I… they already ate it, heck-

B-bappie…? Wait-… Y-you okay now? Of course she isn’t, she just ate an unfamiliar plant and might be sick…

[grey-root]

Th... the beastling. It may soon show symptoms. Of being... "cool" and "swag". This happens, upon the consumption of the vines.

[baby-bell-beastling]

wuhbuhh huhhh

[grey-root]

In past, I was unaware. Of how this creature... is chill like that.

[moss-mother-offical]

…

Oh my fucking god, where’s Kirr.

[baby-bell-beastling]

wuhwuh hunbbhurbuhh hyghhhrhhh bughhhhh

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

So how was. "Brunch"

Watch thine tongue, bug.

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

huh, well this surely surprises me.

I didn't know the famous organist liked having their face sat on......

SILENCEDSESEEEEEE SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP S

[nylethh]

Truly they are a being of great taste (excellent dare we say)

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

So how was. "Brunch"

Watch thine tongue, bug.

[sylphsong-eva]

I know we have not talked much but I am here to congratulate you on achieving what the weavers thought impossible! How does it feel to be free?

Honestly I don't know how he figured that out nobody told us.

@fifth-sentinal-official

Ah, sentinel, the length of meeting matters not if both of us derived enjoyment from it.

I thank you for the congratulation! I am happy as well for your new acquisition of a... pet?

Much has happened after our last meeting, it seems.

[fifth-sentinal-official]

Yes the dog, he's a beautiful creature, he's named uhm... Dogford?

You did not need mind reading to figure out that was a lie.

He's actually outside right now!

A loud "waf " can be heard from far away.

Still didn't answer my question about freedom, I was really curious about it, you haven't had it ever until now and I have not in a long, long time. I'd like to hear a description from you. You would know the definition better than I.

[sylphsong-eva]

Eva glances outside The Door, to which she politely sings a melody.

There is an odd mechanical creature, four-legged and short-faced. Its antennae are short and triangular, the... abdomen? Ovipositor? Being a simple flexible rod.

The sounds it makes are unusual as well. Eva would come closer, but supposed it would be less uncouth to have it approach her as well.

As for Fifth's other question... How could one describe something indescribable? A life in another shape, beyond ability, beyond her dreams?

It is

{Flickering lights in empty stonescapes becoming pockets of vitality and movement. What formerly were brief, murky shapes recollect themselves into intricate tapestries of bugs, of moss, of iron. A gift of sight.}

It is

{Motion. The ability to witness the worlds beyond. Running. Jumping. Climbing. Exhilaration. Feeling the ground resisting her weight and her silk flattening and reforming with every step.}

It is

{Like breathing fresh winter air for the first time, had she had lungs. Feeling gentle breeze caress her body, steady arms hold her tight. Smoothness, texture, all new.}

It is...

Life, as it should be.

[fifth-sentinal-official]

Oh how it should be, beautiful. I wish I could describe my experience a better way.

{organs wriggling all the wrong ways, like a heart beating upside down.}

No words at all.

{a pain no one should feel, every little touch of the organs is like a thousand explosions.}

Head's as empty as a glass of nectar.

{soul bloating my shell in hundred points, it screams and yells for release, for violence, for murder, I can hear their thoughts, it wants and I don't want them.}

Head's as empty as an empty

{they twist my organs, they want to replace them, they want to be my organs}

I guess it's like you see a world you can't have, the only world you truly know is your own body.

{wait can't she hear my thoughts?}

Thank goodness we can't feel our organs, that sounds painful.

[sylphsong-eva]

Eva nods solemnly. The Sentinel isn't sure to which part, exactly, until he hears her response:

"Indeed I can, Fifth, although I never try to intentionally," – she confesses, – "Know I hold no judgement. Only comiseration. A hard hand we were dealt, were we not? A badly fitted vessel for something so far beyond what it should hold."

She whispers: "Suffocating."

"I wish," – she continues, enveloping the Seninel's raging mind-part into a blanket that softens the pained bloodthirst, – "For you to find a similar peace. This is not a replacement, but consolation, perhaps."

[fifth-sentinal-official]

We won the consolation prize!

Yippeeeeee! I don't know what you're talking about!

I thank you for calming their rage, it won't last long, but it is appreciated.

Seriously what are you talking about?

Don't tell him it would be funnier.

It would be annoying.

{don't tell him Eva I don't want to concern him, he has his own problems.}

{what would be the most efficient way to kill a tomato for making pizza.}

{the citadel thought him a very harmful self image}

{if I put pressure on the tomato it would just explode}

This a very awkward silence, awkward enough I started thinking about pizza recipes.

What?

[roachfeeder-real]

How do you butcher muckroaches? Preferably with details.

i don’t actually butcher the roaches at all, i do the hard work of raising them and getting them to the right size first before they’re sent off.

the most i remember hearing is that the main thing to start with is by removing the head. quick and easy kill for ‘em and more importantly removes those jaws from play. i think the legs go next, but from there i think it’s just entirely dependent on what you actually intend to do with the meat.

… mother of silk i hope toccata doesn’t read this.

[muckroach-official]

(imagine this image but with Toccata instead actually can someone please make that)

[roachfeeder-real]

i’m so fucking sorry my scarab

[muckroach-official]

**HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME, I'VE MADE MY MISTAKES-**

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

Curses…I cannot sleep. I fear I may have consumed just a tad too much juice today…

…I wonder if Lace is awake at this hour. I shall text her even though she will certainly scold me on the morrow should she not be.

[pharloom-white-knight]

You're in luck this night, Phantom. I too am plagued with sleeplessness. Worse yet is that my mind is not awake enough to conjure ideas on what to do with these extra waking hours...

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

HA! We bear this curse together, sister!

…dost thee wish to play mario kart

[pharloom-white-knight]

I'll never turn down an opportunity to crush you on the courses, ahahaha!

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

OHOHO! Brave words there! It matters not-I shall take you down effortlessly, behold my skill!

[phantom-of-the-exhaust-organ]

I hath my ass beaten curs I shan’t post that shit

[muckroach-official]

...Phantom please can you lock the fuck in?

Actually, wait, I can teach you the skills of the tracks if you wish.
