ok so i see a lot of people talking their asses off about nothing on here, so i'll just be the first to say that something is FUCKED UP with animals recently.

see, tonight i'm just standin on the balcony enjoying the breeze when suddenly i get jumped by this whack bitch



i managed to catch this photo when the fucker wasn't looking but next thing i knew he was back with like three of his mutant freak buddies. i whipped that motherfucker with a broomstick but as soon as tried to stuff it in a box or something these little bugs started coming out all over

pretty sure i beat it to death but once the bugs left those massive chompers were nowhere to be seen. i'd say i'm just losin it but hey whatever i totally texted you guys with a whiteboard lol



i'm giving the poor bastard a proper autopsy before i flush it down the toilet, findings 2 be announced.

[Oh it looks like one of those spam emails. Like the ones blabbering on about how the apocalypse is coming because animals are dying everywhere. Things have been pretty weird lately though. It wouldn't hurt to reply.]

Are you a scientist or something?

[twopercent]

[Well. Jack's heard a bit of weird scrabbling noises late at night on his roof, and photographic evidence of disturbing bird weirdness... isn't easing his mind any.]

Where was this?

[Hello, he is using video mostly because his hands are shaking a bit too much right now to type and he sucks at spelling anyway. Who knows how that even comes out on a whiteboard, and he doesn't care much.]

Oh my god, wait. Wait. Were those "bugs" like... little black balls of fuzz, kind of like black dandelion heads?

I saw a sparrow like that, too, though I didn't kill it. I just caught it and then it went back to normal, as well.

[Also, the black bugs remind him of what he and Fay saw, all right.]

Are you all right? Did the creature do anything to you?

[He's not asking whether anything changed for her, because that's just too weird, but he'll ask if she's all right and hope she'll mention anything strange.]

Handwritten

[shendude]

I had something similar with a rat. It had thumbs until it died.

[horrorterribubble]

i am smart as hell when it comes to cutting things up if that's what you mean.

but let's not get too familiar we just met after all.

[horrorterribubble]

my balcony in locke. why, got a theory?

[horrorterribubble]

did a bunch of black spores pour out afterwards? pretty sure that shit is key

[11ady]

Work at the university or the hospital?

[horrorterribubble]

[she sticks to text, amused as she is to get to see what one of these networks freaks actually looks like.]

yep. seems like we got a case of the goddamn mutant fraggles up ins.

i tried to get them too but after i squashed them they just poofed.

[horrorterribubble]

pfft i'm FINE sweet thang, just a little surprised until the point i went and got curious.

like so and so up there guessed i do know some things about biology not that it takes much to tell that this shit cray.

[horrorterribubble]

nope that's a negative.

i got some higher ideals ya see.

[11ady]

Private lab, huh? Interesting.

[horrorterribubble]

you sure are pushy aren't you?

you got a hard on for science or somethin?

[dorkytracksuit]

This has to be a joke.

[11ady]

Marketing requires quite a bit of networking with the research sector.

[horrorterribubble]

which part smart guy?

[dorkytracksuit]

A bird with teeth?

[horrorterribubble]

heh. marketing.

well i'm not too inclined to start mixing business with pleasure this early on. still dunno if you all are just crackpots yet.

[horrorterribubble]

keep an eye out. you just might get lucky and see one for yourself

[11ady]

You're the one who has to contend with raven baring teeth. Better to handle it with crackpots than no one at all.

[comparative_insanity]

You have to be gentle with them. Also a bit careful, because they apparently bite.

[He holds up a nicked and still slightly reddened finger with a rueful grimace.]

But ain't so sure they're insects. They seemed like maybe some kind of hairy lizard or weird mammal, you know? It almost looked like... well, a little fairy, except obviously severely overdue a couple of waxings.

[He rolls his eyes slightly as he's half-expecting a fairy-joke, but keeps smiling]

[horrorterribubble]

that's where the scientific mind comes in handy. it ain't about figurin whether or not i'm batshit, it's about contemplating all the ways that nature be fuckin scary.

[dorkytracksuit]

That's the last thing I need.

For this hallucination to start showing up irl.

[horrorterribubble]

i'd like to get some of em under a microscope lens cause taking apart this bird is proving less than fruitful so far.

the real question here is what kind of alien conspiracy this falls under
