I haven't tried it yet.

SWEET.

Once we're back home I'll have all my tools and spare parts and be able to do something better, at least...

Well, for a temporary fix it's not so bad. It just doesn't seem like your style.

I figured some sort of propeller-suit or something.

They are leaving? That is wonderful news!

And what is wrong with a turtle-shaped inner tube?

It sure looks that way. But don't come rushing back to housing just yet. We need to make sure.

And it looks ridiculous.

Hmmm how to get him to keep it on long enough for her to see. moe_rapier May 21 2010, 03:55:33 UTC
That's great news! I'll be up shortly so you have another pair of eyes.

In their rush to head out, I'd stay on the high ground and out of their way, turtle inner tube and all.

It squeaks?

Let's stay focused on the ants, Locket. I'll think about the tube when I return to the wilderness.

I'd like your help in this, though. I'm in Section 2 right now. Where should I meet you?

...S-sorry.

The elevator platform, if possible. I can push my way through any ants trying to get in no problem.

I don't think they'd try to get in the elevator. But sure, I'll meet you there.

[Maverick tucks his journal under an arm alongside the humiliating inner tube and dashes off- literally- to the elevator platform.]

I'm just as happy to deliver it.

You're with the Watch, right? We're going to need you guys to make sure it all goes smoothly when we give the 'all clear.'

They're probably just regrouping for another attack.

Doubtful. They had control of almost the entirety of the sphere. I don't see why they'd need to retreat or regroup.

You never can tell.

True. But last year they reportedly left at around the same time. Let's hope it's another year before we have to see them again.
