24th Invasion

[moemoetentacles]

[Action; in and around 452 Stone Street]

[For anyone living on, hanging out near, or walking down Stone Street today - there is something happening on at 452 Stone Street that you may wish to investigate.  The windows to the house are open, and the sound of a small explosion rings through the air, followed by the surprised and panicked scream of a certain little squid-child.  There is now black smoke billowing out of the living room window, and the sound of coughing.  After a few seconds, Squid Girl's head pops out of the window as she tries to get some fresh air into her lungs.]

Aaaaaahhhhh... what's wrong with that stupid thing!

No, she's a human. I live at her house. I've made it my base for the invasion.

[Just. Staring. Incredulously.]

... Invasion?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Right! I'm going to invade the humans and make them listen!

[Gat would be concerned by this if Squid Girl had given him a more threatening impression. At the moment though, he's mired in trying to keep his sanity from being washed out in the tide.]

Your people don't sound like th' type to have a standin' army. Or navy, I reckon would be th' more appropriate term.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Well... not yet! I just haven't organized one yet.

More to th' point, if you're goin' to conquer th' human nations, why're you livin' with a human back home?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

It's emotional invasion! It's so tricky she doesn't even realize I'm doing it!

... That will be Squid Girl's quote for Gat's CR page. XD

[Gat raises an eyebrow.]

That don't make no sense to me.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

...That's because my plan is just too brilliant!

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

How do you emotionally invade a person?

[Gat wants to see how Squid Girl explains this one.]

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

By making friends with them! Then they'll be sympathetic to your cause! You don't win a war without winning people over to your side, you know.

[nanocerancowboy.livejournal.com]

Alright, "winning of hearts an' minds." That's a bit more sensible soundin' than "emotional invasion."

[It also has less unfortunate implications!]

If you're willin' to live an' make friends with humans, though, why do you look down on 'em?

Want to move your next comment down to a new thread so we don't break the page?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Right! It's a much better plan. Slower, but they definitely won't see it coming later on.

[There's a bit of silence here as she considers that question.]

U-um... I thought I already explained that.
