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.

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.

[soft_focus]

...I hope she does then...

[Well, off she goes to deliver a Tektite then.]
