[OPEN MINGLE: SEPT 8-16]

[oneandmikleonly]

[So what are you up to as we pass out of the first hectic week of September and into the second? Calm strolls with alien elephants or fast swims with alien sealife? Flashing your sunglasses at crime scenes? Dreaming and building dreams? Waking and building...buildings? There's always a lot to do here, whether it's formal missions or just shenanigans with friends.

Zenning out is fine too!]

sorry for the delay!

[She frowns down at the creature again, comparing it to the one in the image Mikleo sent her.]

They've both got the tentacle thing going on. Maybe? Is this something from your world?

[oneandmikleonly]

No. Please no. It's something D.va and her friend found a photo of in the Monolith, the big building with all the sleep pods. And we found sketches in a base before of tentacles exploding out of a man's face...I mean, maybe that's a common alien thing? But really...

[braavado]

[There's a jolt of surprise and a little bit of disgust filtering through the mental connection this time.]

Exploding out of someone's face? Ouch. And also, really gross.

[Korra's eyes try to pinpoint the tentacle-thing's location in the darkness, but gives up after a second. She looks at Mikleo again.]

Think we should we try to contact it again, or keep going?

[oneandmikleonly]

[he stares in its general direction, then shakes his head, reinforcing it with a little burst of returned feeling; disinclination to chase it, and a sort of inarticulate apology for the disgust]

We'd better keep going. We can always come back and check out our weird tentacle mystery another time -- or on our way back, possibly.

[if they can't find anything below the vents, then why not check out this other new mystery?]
