[A pencil sketch slowly appears that's an inexact copy of this. It's an outline of the dragon only, without quite as many details.]I've been seeing this picture here and there for a few days now. And for some reason the word "Turtle!" in blue, spiked letters

There's been drawings on the walls everywhere! Some of them are kind of nice, though. Others are... not so nice. [PENISES EVERYWHERE]

Anyway, what's going on?

[feathered_earth]

Yeah. I prefer the dragons. [SHE KIND OF PRETENDS SHE DOESN'T SEE THOSE.]

What do you think? Your birthday, that's what!

AHH! I CAN'T BELIEVE I ACTUALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT!

[iattractmushi]

I'd almost forgotten about the ants.

You're sure they happen every year at the same time?

[feathered_earth]

Honestly, it was Sniper's birthday that reminded me. You would think twelve-foot insects would be more memorable than that.

They've come at around this time last year and the year before, at least.

[iattractmushi]

[A pen tap or two. Something else to add to the list of things that are changing/different.]

Alright. If I remember right, there was some warning before they came--guess we'll just have to wait and see if that happens later than we expect.

[feathered_earth]

Yeah. I've been listening, but nothing so far.

I'm not sure if it's a good sign or a bad one.

[coughcoughshank]

I saw that sign too.

Do you suppose anyone has gotten their hair caught, in the past?

[feathered_earth]

I sure hope not. It looked painful.

[coughcoughshank]

It sounds pretty painful, too.

[feathered_earth]

Whereas I haven't seen any signs in the air about flying, so it must be perfectly safe!

[spandexisyouth]

Turtle should be written in green and brown. It does not make any sense in blue! Except it should not be written all over anyway, because the markings are not good.

Be careful, Krile! But if your hair does get stuck somehow, remember that you can cut it.

[feathered_earth]

Some of them aren't good. I don't mind this one, though.

I'd prefer not to, but I'll keep my pocketknife with me just in case.

[spandexisyouth]

They are not good in the way that they are put everywhere, even on shops and houses that people do not want them on.

It is better to be careful.

[feathered_earth]

That's true. Hopefully they're just something the Sphere is doing.

Very true!

[crimson_seeker]

Take what now to work? Don't you have a wall full of far more interesting things to poke hostile things with?

[feathered_earth]

I don't poke things with the broomstick, silly. It's for flying!

[crimson_seeker]

[...]

I'll not ask.

But I will ask this. If you have a flying broomstick, why in the Heavens would you ever step in the elevator again?

[feathered_earth]

When it's raining, too cold, or I'm shopping for something, the elevator is more convenient. But I stick mostly with the broom these days.
