[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, they started it when they started disrespecting their natural resources and taking the ocean for granted.

[Gat chuckles and shakes his head. He's smiling slightly.]

Now you're soundin' like a Newman.

Odd you said "we sea creatures," though. Most folks don't talk about all plants an' animals livin' in their territory if their people've been wronged.

But we have to eat the other stuff to survive.

Well, yeah—but don't ya'll got ocean farms or somethin' like that? Agriculture's th' foundation of any civilization.

... Your folks don't do any kind of animal husbandry? Or growin' sea plants for food?

I just eat a lot of shrimp. And sometimes lobster.

[Gat blinks a few times.]

... Do ya'll have any cities, or anything?

[That look on Gat's face is creeping mystification.]

So ... Your people're nomadic hunter-gatherers.

[Gat rubs his forehead, trying to process all this. A girl from a race of sea-dwelling humanoids that seem to have no technology or developed civilization of their own ...]

If'n'ya don't mind my askin', how'd you wind up ownin' things like that there video game console if ya'll didn't even have cities of your own? Or th' 3D television you mentioned, for that matter.

Oh, it's not mine, it's Eiko's. I just use it all the time, so maybe the town thought it belonged to me.

She's another one of th' squid folk, I take it.

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

[Just. Staring. Incredulously.]

... Invasion?

From: [identity profile] 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.

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?

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

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

How do you emotionally invade a person?

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

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.
