The Alien World

Action: Wait for Female/"Eve" to act.


Male sits quietly, watching the horror story unfold before them (... at least, a horror story for the New Glowey Things). He looks to "Eve" for guidance, and for a moment she does nothing but stare. Then she abruptly dives in, tucking her delicate fins to her belly in a streamlined fashion.

Male follows her into the dark clouds of sand, lighting up periodically. He keeps track of "Eve" because she's lighting back - but other than that, there's no hint of where she is.

Finally the dust disperses, and the creature is revealed. It's a massive beastie with sharp teeth and a primitive jaw a bit stronger than Male and "Eve"s are. Its eyes are wide and slitted like a cat's, and its apparent throat-pouch is bulging with New Glowey Things.

Eve isn't sure what to do, now, but she goes closer to the beast. You're on your own.

Might as well give this thing a name while you decide what to do.

Action: Follow Eve and go closer.

With a bit of hesitation, he follows his new companion closer to the wide-mouthed Gigagulper, his feelers twitching slightly with the electric pulses coming off the beast. He watches Eve as she circles nervously around it, just out of reach of its maw - hopefully.

Suddenly the Gigagulper awakens, and its wide eyes snap directly onto the two creatures - its focus is immaculate, and the two species stare.

Suddenly it opens its mouth and starts to puff up. Two thick fins rise on its back, growing red. Then it suddenly lets out a burst of water that seems to last forever.

Both creatures go flying into the deep.

When they stop, they aren't where they initially were. Male opens his eyes to a much brighter world; there are columns of light coming down from the surface and dancing on the sand with the wobble of the water. White Glowey Things dart among the soft green plant bulbs, and it seems another tiny new thing has entered its world with a fascination to the newcomer, bumping all over his body.

... Where's Eve?

After searching around with his not-so-perfect eyesight, he finally found her via tail lights. He swims closer and finds her midsection-deep in the sand, scooping it out continually. Her tail seems to be covered in something goopy and round.
