Hey! If you're down by the Groves, be careful: there's a really mean goose there! Or, goose-like animal, since this is an alien planet. It chased me around and took my glasses and I had to get a new pair. ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡

Hopefully the Grove staff can deal with it, but avoid going for any nice autumn walks today. I heard it honking at some people as I was stumbling around blind.

And how large would you say this menacing featherkin was? Six fulms high? Ten?

[codecmoment]

None of those words mean anything to me. It's a goose...

[sassian]

What is the usual convention for expressing a sigh over text, just out of curiosity.

[codecmoment]

It didn't have a shining third eye for me to poke out, okay.

Also you can just type "sigh," but your words say a lot.

[envoyoftwilight]

Are you sure that was a goose.

[And not her stupid bat bird thing. It sounds like the kind of thing Charon would do.]

[codecmoment]

Yes! It looked like one and made similar noises, and about the same size. There's a lot of analogous species to ones I'm familiar with here, so... it's a goose... basically.

[envoyoftwilight]

We should catch it and eat it.

[codecmoment]

What? Duck is edible, I don't think goose is as good?

Fine, I'll fight the goose.

[codecmoment]

No! It's just an animal being mean! (｡•́︿•̀｡)

[torsion]

Did you drop your glasses or did it pluck them off your face?

Eyeglasses aren't cheap, last I checked.

[codecmoment]

It bit me and chased me around and then I tripped. It was a series of events where it took them. (╥﹏╥) Just my lot in life I guess, but I could use some new frames.

So I may have hit it hard enough to send it flying.

What are my chances I just made a life-long enemy?

[codecmoment]

100%, but it's just an animal... they do animal things. It may be territorial.

[sleepinglotus]

I wasn't even IN its territory! It ran at me and my puppy and bit him!

He's okay now and slamming an angry goose with my Aura was probably a bit of an overreaction but come on, that's my pet.

[codecmoment]

Some animals, like people, are just kind of assholes.

Also, it went after the baby, it should have been prepared for the protector to take offense.

It stole my thermos and dipped it in the lake, the monstrous thing.
I've never seen such intent on an avian face before.
A true menace to society.

[Joel voice: I gotta... Dip. ]

[codecmoment]

Did it bite you, too, or just take your things like a little thief?

DIP

[profanation]

Oh, no.
Most animals don't come that close, you know!
But this one... well.
I think it fears neither man, nor god, nor daemon!

[codecmoment]

God, I wish that were me.

[tropism]

[ un. GOLDILOCKS. ]

Maybe it has a nest close by? I doubt the staff would be inclined to move the avian terror around if it has decided to settle there.

[codecmoment]

That was my guess, honestly. Protecting the babies.

... baby geese...

[tropism]

So it's going to cause traffic and havoc for generations to come? We have come to the wrong planet, truly.

I'm trying to figure out if that one hair tie I didn't manage to retrieve is a lost cause or if I should try my chances getting it back again...

[codecmoment]

I would leave it alone, but, some people are fighters.
