[There are a handful of Hydra punks hanging out on Del's lawn again! But, rather than visiting, they seem to be considering the gaping hole in the ceiling over Del's dorm . . .]

How should we get up there?

[OH NOES A KNIFE--o wait, it's pretty ineffective. Scowl's knife kind of harmlessly bounces off its body, Cavepecker slamming its spiked tail sideways as it rushes pass him]

[as for Sparta, its back is smooth but bony, he could either latch on to the shoulders or the feather-like appendages behind its head crest. If he can hold on. I KNOW YOU'RE UP THERE 8E]

[SCREECHES ignoring Guillotine in favor of the THING ON ITS BACK. Starts bucking a few times, before CHARGING ITS BEAK. We going underground]

	[sob sob he can hear the whoosh of the tail swinging towards him and makes an attempt at ducking!! . . . but that doesn't work out so well for someone who relies on his sight so heavily . . . STILL he jams a knife up at the underside as it hits him, hoping it's softer there like the fatty lizards.] [Right before he's slammed into the tunnel wall :Db] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[WELL THAT WAS BALLS! . . . nothing I can do about that now, though, so how about aiming straight for the sound of that beak! because clearly the beak is near the eyes and therefore—okay yes, we can make out enough to GO FOR THE EYES and hopefully injure + distract] [this is intelligent] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[TOO DISTRACTED WITH BUCKING DINOSAUR. HOLDING ONTO THE TUFTS and flattening as much as possible behind the crest, bladed feet trying to wedge into/between the boney plates on the back as well.

[FFFFFFFFFFFFFF WHY ARE YOU STILL THERE--

DOINK

SPEAR DIDN'T HIT A WING BUT IT DID LODGE ITSELF BETWEEN SOME SCALES RIGHT ABOVE SPARTA'S HEAD ON ITS NECK]

[so yeah it's pissed]

[remember how you guys thought the tunnel was going to widen/dip in a bit? If you care to follow the shark-onna-dino, you'll see that is exactly what's happening....and the cavepecker is plowing full out of the earth, being sure to SCRAAAAAAPE its back on the tunnel ceiling while doing so, trying to dislodge that spear, among other things :x]

[Spear. Well there was a lock of my hair. TAKES THIS MOMENT TO GET HIS GRIP AGAIN... Over the flapping, stomping and wall shaking, you can very clearly hear a very, very, very creative line of cussing out everything from the dinosaur to the Ophiuchus who thought this shit up.

And really, the better grip was just in time.

HOLY FUCK THAT WAS MY RIBS and some of my back. Stunned and the wind knocked out of him for a moment, and clinging honestly just ON INSTINCT NOW.]

[YOU ARE THE MOST ANNOYING FLEA EVER, GOSH--WHAT IS EVEN ON MY TAIL. Swinging that toward the ceiling!!]

[up ahead the tunnels start to look a LOT wider...but also more twisted, ranging from spiraling upwards, downwards, diagnolly, you name it. Cavepecker spreads its wings, ready to take off--]

[--ugh did something just try to tap my belly 8|a]

[Really, his world right now has tunneled down to a really black and red haze of GET A SCALE, GET A FUCKING SCALE. And has abandoned all other concerns and considerations.

His arm strength isn't going to cut it, obviously... The next time it bucks for the ceiling, the shark fishes out another knife... and hauls himself forward just a few inches to hold it between the tunnel ceiling and the cavepecker's head.]
