18th Invasion

[Springtime has arrived, and it's high time Squid Girl and Taiwan got on with their plan of raising environmental awareness about the state of the world's oceans!  Clearly this is a huge problem that needs to be addressed by the citizens of Mayfield, despite their utter lack of proximity to any large bodies of water!  But such petty logic has not dissuaded our champions of ecological responsibility on this fine spring day, and so they can be found going around town all day long enthusiastically handing out and hanging up flyers all over town.

Squid Girl is dressed up in a magical girl costume rather reminiscent of something out of
Pretty Cure, and Taiwan is wearing this charming pink getup.  It's also really easy to tell which flyers were drawn by which of them, as half of them are just derpy-looking crayon drawings of squid, lobster, and crabs with big goofy looking googly eyes and smiles, and the other half have well-drawn pictures of moe-looking anthropomorphic sea life with cute Engrish slogans like 'Protect Environments Love,' 'Let's Cleaning! Fight!' or 'Yes! Save Water Creature!' (shamelessly yanked from Yana's previous posts about this).  Some of Taiwan's flyers also have pictures of Squid Girl in her Cure Marine costume accompanied by a cute little lobster sidekick with a pink bow.

Whether you're talking to Squid Girl or Taiwan, they'll probably just shove a flyer in your face and say something like this:]


Here!  Take one of these flyers!  They're for ocean awareness!

((OOC: There will be no particular posting order for responses, just to keep things flowing.  We'll each just tag whatever, and if you're having a conversation with one of them, the other might threadjack in halfway through!  For maximum lulz potential.))

Okay.

[And she stands there, arms folded and eyes closed, concentrating.]

[After a while, Sasaki starts glancing from side to side. ...She doesn't think squids hibernate...]

[Finally opens her eyes.]

Done!

I think I probably have both.

[Twitch. Oh, you moeblobs.]

So you're an amphibian squid.

...You guess so.

[Sigh.] Well, if you're ever more curious than that--[And this is a fruitless attempt, she already is pretty sure.]

It's okay, I don't really want to be dissected.

[identity profile] cramschoolgod.livejournal.com 2011-04-10 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not --- ...

Right, of course.

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-04-10 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean, how else would you find out if I have lungs, gills, or both, right?

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-04-10 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
...Oh.

Of course! I knew that!

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Do you have that kind of stuff?

[identity profile] cramschoolgod.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I have been working on it. It's that or count on a regain--but I'm sure with the resources at my disposal with my assigned family, we will be able to do so soon.

Isn't there better stuff you could build?

[identity profile] cramschoolgod.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Like what? We start with fairly simple machines before we extend, after all.

[identity profile] moemoetentacles.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, like some kind of weapon or something!

[identity profile] cramschoolgod.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
...To dispense justice to the enemies of the ocean?

Technological progress bootstraps itself, Squid Girl.

Why are we talking about boots all of a sudden?

[identity profile] cramschoolgod.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
I---

...

Wasn't speaking of boots. It's a phrase, it means a self-propagating process.

So you have to build an x-ray machine before laser guns?
