monday - thursday (31) survivors Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find the ship restored to its previous state, all areas interfered with during the murder looking mostly the same as they did before. Along with this, it appears there are new areas opened on the ship. It seems you have more exploring to do. The robot in the cafeteria has prepared another breakfast of various foods.

[honestly the way she talks about everything he totally expected her to have killed it]

So... there's not any more like it?

[bloodbiter]

No, I don't think so. The ones that live that deep in the ocean are more unique than the typical sort we deal with on a daily basis.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

The typical sort... Of. Giant crab monster?

[bloodbiter]

[laughs]

No - no, the typical sort of monster. Not the giant crab sort.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Oh-- good! I was worried there for a second. You'd need more than just an army to take care of that many giant crab monsters.

[bloodbiter]

You would think so, I can't imagine it would be any harder than slaying dragons. I was in that cave for weeks before I figured out a way to take care of just one.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

How did you take care of it? You didn't say.

[a...lso... weeks???????]

[bloodbiter]

Oh, I killed her. I stabbed her in the neck while she was distracted with something else.

[it's A LONG STORY okay]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

...That'd do it.

[listen he isn't sure if that's cool or terrifying or both, but he is leaning towards both]

[bloodbiter]

Is something amiss?

[why is he surprised?? he fought a dragon too surely he ended up murdering it??]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

No. Well. You said it took you weeks, so I kind of thought the defeating part would be a bit longer than that.

[also yes sure adrien absolutely killed the dragon and didn't ride along on it like they were on a magic carpet ride. yep definitely murder]

[bloodbiter]

Oh. Well...

[how to explain this easily]

Well, first she kidnapped me, and every time I tried to leave when she was sleeping she was too easily roused. I finally managed to escape after wounding her, but then she was more determined than I had imagined and followed me to bring me back. At that point I had little choice.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Why did she... Oh, because you're a princess.

[adrien don't just accept fairy tale logic like that i don't care that you're a magical girl]

[bloodbiter]

[dismantles his fairy tale logic for him]

Er, no, because I was the first person she happened to come across. She wasn't particularly picky, just lonely, as they typically are.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... Dragons are lonely?

[oh, THAT he questions]

[bloodbiter]

Yes. That's why they keep prisoners for weeks or months at a time.

[which would be okay if they didn't inevitably murder them in the end but you know]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[...]

Can't they just hang out with other dragons?

[bloodbiter]

You would think so, wouldn't you? But they dislike their own kind.

[dragons are the worst it's accepted by everyone including dragons]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Oh. So how do they... multiply?

[adrien you can say the word procreate come on. do it. ask about dragon sex]

[bloodbiter]

They haven't for quite some time, to my knowledge. There are under ten of them left if I'm recalling correctly. They live very long and few are willing to fight them, however.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

I can guess why. You'd think something that tough would be a bit smarter, though.

[bloodbiter]

[she shakes her head]

Oh, she was incredibly clever until the end. It was rather frustrating.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

No, no, I meant as a species. I'm sure the one who got you was clever enough, to keep you there for weeks!

[adrien she's not offended you don't have to be apologetic]

[bloodbiter]

Placing a boulder that weighed several tons in the mouth of the cave was rather foolproof, that much is true.

[smh]

Well, clever or not, I imagine they won't be around for a great deal longer. It will be a relief.

[monsieurchatastrophe]

... A boulder? How did you leave?
