the ocean

[instar]

Five pigeons, one with a beetle glued to her foot, fly to Seattle and find the aquarium and the orca tanks.

There is one with just one orca in it.

Five pigeons land on the glass edge of the tank.

Comments

"Thank you." Bella pauses in writing. "Hey, Ax - does morphing deal with poison and venom as well as it does with injuries?"

[morphbox]

<If a morph is bitten, yes. The body is reconstructed the next time that morph is accessed. If one's natural form is poisoned or bitten, the toxins will remain in that form, although they will not affect others, until they have had time to leave the body in whatever way they normally do. Are we going to acquire venomous creatures?>

[instar]

"Maybe. I'd like some kind of suitably vicious snake. Sounds like a bit much to add to everything else, though, if the venom would stick around."

"I wouldn't mind," says Trouble. "We could save it for last or something."

[instar]

"Okay. If you're up to it when we've raided the other major clades."

[aeskhyne]

He giggles.
