I'm sure a lot has happened, but nothing on the scale of the original blast.

[ the city's a mess of division, "every man for himself" vs. "all for one and one for all". no one person has any hope of answering that question concisely, and he hasn't been paying as much attention as he likely should have, mind on a particular task.

time to shift the focus back out to Prompto. ]

Any opportunity we can take ought to be taken, some record of what it's like out there is a valuable use of time. Was it difficult getting out?

[mercurio]

it wasn't too difficult, no

[now that strange mentions it--]

i'm taking pictures of pretty much everything as we go
as a record, right?

hopefully it'll be easy to get back in again

[rehandle]

[ ... yeesh ]

Just don't stay out too long. Make sure to get back before the city's up and running again.

[mercurio]

for sure! i don't intend to be caught outside
don't think half the animals out here want us around anyway

[rehandle]

What makes you say that?

[mercurio]

they're staring at us and keeping a distance
but i guess we ARE intruding in their home

the centipedes are huge

[ not used to people. not surprising, but good to confirm. also, great news that they're not under active threat of imminent animal attack... why are the kids the ones out in the wilderness ]

Keep that to yourself, someone might want to harvest them for barbecue.

[ is he joking, who knows ]

[mercurio]

ugh, gross, i think clarke is close to suggesting that

they all have golden flecks in their eyes though
pretty creepy
i don't really know how different they are from earth's normal fauna, but i'm taking pictures for later

[rehandle]

Golden?

[ it's an automatic thought to text, it's not like he can't just read back on what Prompto literally just said, but - hm. ]

How golden?

[ is that an overzealous description of some amber in an otherwise dark eye, or? ]

[mercurio]

like, actually golden
some of them have several pupils and like six eyes...

anyway they seem pretty mutated - which shouldn't be super surprising, right?

[rehandle]

Like the eyes of the beasts in the dreams.

I'd like to see the pictures when you get back. For now, stay safe out there.
