What:

[This afternoon, you may notice a new notice posted up for all to see:


WARNING!!!

THERE MAY BE AN INFESTATION OF A MAN-EATING INSECT BEING INTRODUCED TO THE ECOSYSTEMS.



THIS IS A TERAPEDE. IT IS VERY SIMILAR TO A CENTIPEDE IN APPEARANCE.

HOWEVER, IT WILL EAT THE FLESH OFF OF YOUR BONE.

IT COMES FROM THE WORLD OF SABRA LA TAU.

TERAPEDES CAN BREED AND PLACE THEIR SOON-TO-BE BROOD IN DARK PLACES SUCH AS UNDERGROUND.

BEWARE: IF YOU SEE ANY GROUND OR WALLS WITH HOLES THAT SOUNDS AS THOUGH THERE IS MOVEMENT COMING FROM INSIDE, IT IS LIKELY THE BROOD OF A TERAPEDE EMERGING.

ALSO NOTE: IF YOU SURVIVE A TERAPEDE ATTACK, THEY MAY, IN FACT, USE YOU AS AN INCUBATOR FOR THEIR BROOD.

THESE CREATURES ARE LARGE, SO DO NOT TAKE THE ABOVE PHOTO LIGHTLY.

HERE ARE THE SIZE OF THESE CREATURES TO SCALE:



IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ASK YOUR LOCAL SABRAN.


So how's your day going, Thusia?]

[ oh jesus fucking lord almighty ]

[apriori]

Oh.

[A pause to consider this development]

Is the picture to scale?

[overclocking]

[........... UM. I'M JUST GONNA STARE AT THIS.]

But how?

[over_the_fop]

[Oh. I KNEW I was forgetting something.]

Well! That's informative.

[intellectum]

[oh god why]

[dasschlechtende]

[sorry but you have the look of UNDERSTANDING]

--know something about this?

[dasschlechtende]

[JESUS FUCKING CHRIST]

[offalia]

[and if anyone bothers to go hunting around for a certain former Ophiuchus, he will be boredly seeing if he can make playing cards into darts or something in the ceiling.

the answer is that no, no they can't be used like that. and so there's a large pile on the ground around him.]

Re: E-9

[tirant]

[i have no idea what a sabran is but i guess i will run across you after i've cleaned ... up ... and decided it's time to look around a bit more]

That looks rather pointless ... enjoying yourself?

[slayerofgiants]

[Holding his hand over his mouth like he's going to be sick!]

[madasahero]

[Rubbing his back. :X]

[anklets]

[Reads the entire notice once, twice through, then takes a quick breath and jerkily lifts a hand, scratching at her arm as if she'd just felt a tickle there.]

[crowdependency]

[HI LENALEE I'M A LITTLE FREAKED OUT]

[apriori]

[The first time he read through the notice, he turned heel and headed back to his apartment.

The second time he came back with a pen to draw smiley faces on the terapedes.]

[pausing on her way to the baths, her armor a bit bloody at the moment but nothing remarkable in hand - she's probably just been by the shrines - reading the notice]

...................................

[yes, arthur, that's very eloquent.]

[unwieldyfate]

[well guess who was coming from that direction.

freezes in place as soon as she sees her, though]

. . .

[crowdependency]

[fffffffffffffffffffff, p-placing her hand over the scars around her mouth.]

[besomeothername]

[Putting a hand on her shoulder]

Lenalee?

[nolongerslate]

[I think I need to go have words with my roommate, because I do remember what came with him]

[killedyuu]

Don't tell me that the gods started bringing in more stupidly dangerous creatures...

[anklets]

Well, not these gods.

[besomeothername]

As if we didn't have enough critters that went bump in the night here. Why couldn't they import something cute and harmless?

[bitingbark]

Seriously. That's fuckin' nasty lookin.

[lyvus_daddy]

[Returning from his drafted trip. Not looking the happiest.]

[That doesn't improve with this.]

...really?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Oh....oh dear.]

There's Terapedes here?1 But how...how did they even GET here?

[maidenofamerpire]

[...oh dear gods.]

[madasahero]

[Indeed]

[hyanaimne]

[........... I thought they were kind of cute until the explanation]

How pleasant.

[over_the_fop]

Well, they're not exactly nice to have for dinner, but they're considered a good sign of ecological health in general.

[gemuine]

[ ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR SOME LAMEBRAIN KING BUT WHATEVER PAUSES TO LOOK AT THE POSTER. ]

"Local Sabran" . . .

I'm in this journal already so hello

[beautymark]

[well these are... artful and informative postings.]

What exactly does that mean?

[deadandbearied]

[Some of us can't read you know.]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[You're kind of staring.]

...trouble?

[cloakanddaikon]

They aren't man eating. They're flesh eating; all things told, they're far more indiscriminate than this currently implies.

[dasschlechtende]

I don't think semantics changes the fact that these things have eaten people.

[heroic_homemaker]

These things are back?

[unwieldyfate]

[a little closer to evening, KNOCK KNOCK APARTMENT PHIIII]

[no_hero]

[. . .


it's gonna be a bit before he even registers someone's knocking. let alone getting up to get the door.]
