[Newt has definitely not been up all night building salamander-proof enclosures out of spare Null parts so the fact that he sounds both tired and revved up on way too much coffee is just your imagination.]

Two questions, Hadriel. One: Tell me about the cave monsters. What all has crashlanded here before I got here? Specifically, I'm looking for stuff that a person could feasibly, like, catch. Or at least put down and drag into town for some post-mortem studying. This includes stuff that might be a good food source, maybe? I don't know. Depends on what's out there.

[The food source thing is secondary in his mind, but the masses don't need to know that. He's already expecting to catch some flak for this.]

And two: Anyone got some time to help me wrangle some salamanders, at least? I'm thinkin' two should be good. I'd like to grab some other stuff too, but again, depends on what's out there. Gonna start with the salamanders for now.

Me! Me! I have all of the time! I have the most time! I want to save them!

[He is not wasting any time.]

I also want to save the beetle friends!

Is salamander a euphemism for something? [ can you hear her waggle her eyebrows? because that's happening right now. ]

If you need a few monsters wrangled, I got you covered. Especially if getting them to you alive is optional.

I can tell you about the manticores and harpies, though I don't know how good either of them would be to eat.

I can get some to you though, but they won't be caught so much as.... chasing me.

[The voice makes Michael do a double-take at the name. The hell? This is definitely not Harlan but also: kind of.

????? Anyway.]

I could probably assist with the post-mortem part.
I studied biology and I worked in a morgue.

[Not that those things are related, actually. He considers volunteering to help with the monster hunting too but- yeah no, there wouldn't be anything usable left.]

You'll have to find somebody else for the actual hunting part.

You wanna study those things? Why?

What caves?

[ Frustrated and disorientated, he'd barely had a chance to become adjusted to his present surroundings when the city moved. And to a circumbinary planet that could give Tatooine a run for its money when it comes to miserable heat.

He is far from charmed. ]

There may not be any salamanders left. The creatures who come through the Door when people arrive rarely last for long.

( This is a super important post. Too important to waste time with texting. )

Hold the fuck up, what are you gonna do with the lizards? You gonna do weird shit to 'em? I ain't about that. ( And Ghoul's opinion is extremely valuable here, you know. If only because he may be sort of keeping an eye on one of the remaining salamanders.

It's really fucking cute, okay. It must be protected. )

...But why? Why do you want dangerous creatures?!

I understand it's not my business, but please do consider your welfare! I mightn't have seen all the monsters, but those salamanders are trouble...

[Buddy, Ryou is new but he is quite concerned for you already...]

[puzzlingly]

It depends, what do you wanna learn from the salamanders?

[hasitsthorns]

Anything specific you're looking for or just a general idea?
Varrens remind me a little of mini-Kaiju but they'd be a bitch to try and get alive.

I can probably trap a couple smaller creatures.
I'll give anything easy enough to catch to Alphys to pass onto you.

[lifetothefullest]

Why do you want the salamanders?

[It isn't accusatory or judgemental or anything; he's genuinely curious. The monster thing makes sense, both for studying them and potentially as a food source, but the salamanders sound like a separate thing from that and so he's interested in the motivation there.]

[Audio]

[drabsolutelynot]

I'm going to start with the obvious: this is a bad idea.

[But Lee's been around long enough to know that warning pretty much has a 100% fail rate in changing people's minds here in the cave. A person determined to do something stupid will 9 out of 10 times still do something stupid]

But if you are going to do this I could recommend the use of some sedatives.

[stealer_ofsouls]

Sounds like fun. [No Bakura, wrangling monsters sounds dangerous and foolhardy. But then again, most fun things are.] When do we start?

[am_i_a_monster]

You could go hunting with me and get the monster that you want.

rolls in here extremely late with audio.

[torrefied]

There's been talk for some time of compiling an informational database for the creatures we encounter, but so far, nothing has come of it.

Are you fire proof, ese?

Two things back at you.

First, I can catch most anything I've run into in the tunnels, the question is just if you want it alive. I've dragged a few things that might be edible into the city already but don't know how to butcher -- so maybe you should come take a look at that.

Second, I think I recognize your name... and need your help.
