Right, is anyone else's 'new friend' huge?

That confusion aside, please remember if you are going to be exploring unknown worlds to do so with a buddy. And no, your newfound animal companion does not count.

Labor crew, mandatory check in. Find me before I find you. That is a threat, not a suggestion.

Come back and find a buddy?

[soft_focus]

Most of them can't come here, the things will eat their souls.

[dorkypantsuit]

Why would you want to go somewhere like that!?

[soft_focus]

They can't eat kids.

It's only kids here.

[dorkypantsuit]

Oh, well then bring a kid buddy.

[soft_focus]

Can I just keep talking and have that count?

It feels like you'd be better, because I don't think anyone able to come here would want to stay with me all day.

[dorkypantsuit]

Why not?

[soft_focus]

Everyone wants to run and find the different worlds right now. Especially the one with candy everywhere.

...I'm busy though, I found something that looks like a crab with an eye, and it's scared of lots of things.

[The kind of scared where animals Fight Back, mind, but she has that covered.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Don't crabs normally have eyes?

[soft_focus]

Normally they have two.

This one only has one, in the middle of their face.

[dorkypantsuit]

Weird. But other than that normal?

[soft_focus]

It has four legs.

[no]

And jumps very high.

[dorkypantsuit]

That... Doesn't really sound like a crab.

[soft_focus]

It still looks a bit like a crab. The legs are the right shape.

...I could show you I think? They're curious now instead of scared.

[dorkypantsuit]

Is it safe?

[soft_focus]

It was more dangerous when it was scared.

[This answers N O T H I N G]

[dorkypantsuit]

So that's a no?

[soft_focus]

I don't know! Everyone has different ideas of safe.

I'm not hurt though, and it's not jumping anymore.

[dorkypantsuit]

If you think you can control it, I think it's fine to bring it back here.

If it attacks someone, though, you'll be held responsible.

Do you still want to bring it home?

[soft_focus]

Yeah.

[It is totally going to end up jumping at someone's face.

But it's also the size of a crab, and very easy to bat away. So.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Then I think it's fine. Make sure you have Rini look at it once you bring it here so she can give her approval.

[soft_focus]

....Who's Rini?

[dorkypantsuit]

The Ringmaster.

[soft_focus]

....Oh.

....

....Does she like crabs?

[dorkypantsuit]

I don't know... Maybe? She likes weird things.
