So we're leaving the desert soon. Anyone want to bet on where we go next? What do you want to see? Personally, if I had my druthers: oak savanna. Get a lot more plants and trees around but they're not in dense stands. Good grazing country while still having shade and windbreaks. Maybe even real horses. These scaly ones are well enough but they're just not very expressive.

WHAT, REMARKABLE FACTS,
THAT YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW.
PLEASE BE HONEST: ARE YOU A GIANT SQUIRREL.

[hasapoint]

There's just no knowing. Such is anonymity.

[spaghettimonster]

HOW VERY TRUE...

WELL, MY DEAR ANONYMOUS INFORMANT,
I HOPE YOU WON'T BE TOO ANGRY IF I NEVER START GIVING GIFTS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

[It was one thing when he could conjure up lasting bones to give as gifts. But now, when the only bones to his name are his own? And supposedly things found in the sands won't survive the Crossing? He's not sure he wants some squirrel crime group coming by to threaten his kneecaps, here.]

[hasapoint]

That's all right. I'll just take what I want without bothering you.

PLEASE DON'T BREAK AND ENTER MY TEMPORARY HOME??
OR MY BONES????

[hasapoint]

[hmmm. she should probably walk away, stupid point made. the response she'd like to make is tricky to convey, anyway... unless...



Need draws a squirrel sitting up on its haunches holding a tiny open book which has been thoroughly gnawed. In what intact space there is she makes a rough imitation of the font, as if that last message had been page-filling and the squirrel chewed away certain words.]

PLEASE BREAK AND ENTER
MY BONES

Okay.

[spaghettimonster]

OH MY GOD! NO!!!
THAT'S NOT HOW CONTRACTS WORK!?

PLEASE DON'T BLACKOUT POETRY MORE THREATS AT ME.
AT THE VERY LEAST YOU SHOULD FIND SOME NEWSPAPERS TO CLIP UP.

[Now that's the classic format for delivering text-based threats that don't use one's own handwriting for the message.]
