Biology Class: Grub-Dogs!

[leadthemalong]

This isn't Zoology, however it seems going over some bits of it has been helping keep you all interested. We've already went over cells and DNA, might as well try to take today's session with more creature analyzes. Just be glad I haven't felt like getting into a lengthy technical lecture

They... they look sort of like chimeras.
Poor Ionia. Good thing there aren't any here.

So... wait. Are they insects or mammals?
If they have larvae, that sounds kinda like bugs, but fur...
I guess it could be kind of like how some caterpillars are hairy?

[leadthemalong]

Correct Lucas! It's just like how many caterpillars appear to have fur.

Grub-Dogs are insects believe it or not. Apparently we have some VERY interesting creatures on this planet!

Yes it pains me so to see Pikmin get devoured whole...What's worse is I've seen it all way too many times. I remember when I first encountered a Bulborb. One of the many horrific images I can't get out of my head. I remember how absolutely crushed I was to see the Pikmin that had help recover my ship's engine become humongous bug's lunch! Quite a violent sight...

Don't worry Lucas, Pikmin's natural predictors live only in the wildest parts of Earth. So any Pikmin like Ionia (Lovely name by the way!) I have brought into the city should be a lot safer. Though I still don't recommend leaving them out of a potted plant or a building at night, you never know about those wild dogs around.

...Whoa. Those are huge bugs.

That... that is really sad. I'm glad Ionia won't have to be scared of them, and I'm sure Jeff would never let it wander around at night. Not unless one of us was watching it, anyway.

(And, um... thanks. We named it after somebody who really changed my life.)

*big happy eyes*

Thank you, teacher Olimar! Yoshi promises to take good care of red Pikmin! ^___^

[leadthemalong]

I know you will, I trust you! I'm pleased to see Pikmin can bring happiness to others besides me!

[blondprodigy]

They're huge... and I still haven't seen one? Jeez! How many little pikmin would they have to eat in a day to survive? Kind of makes me think of whales...

[leadthemalong]

How much they need I am no so sure on. I DO know that some types of Grub-Dog can devour more then ten Pikmin in one bite!

*is barely paying attention; copies Olimar's drawings into her notebook... and makes a side-doodle on her paper with her gel pens...*

[leadthemalong]

*Walking by to notice the drawing but doesn't disturb Daisy*

...

...I'm not going to even ask...*ignores*

*Looking both ways to avoid Olimar*

...

*Tosses a crumpled piece of paper to catch Daisy's attention so she can talk to her, the paper reads out "Hey Daisy, are you okay?"*

[loudflowerpower]

*reads the paper, writes something on the back and tosses it back to Amy*

*paper says: "No... and I think I want to go home."*

[youresosweet]

*Takes out another piece of paper and throws it at Daisy*

*"Want to talk about it? I think I know what's wrong..."*

[loudflowerpower]

*writes back: "Not sure if I should talk - friend's trust is involved."*
