I wanna know about the bog slug and bullying Immaru 👁👁

As requested, a snippet bullying Immaru and a few regarding the bog slug. The last one is from a thing currently being polished so it has actual sentences and punctuation.

***

Immaru! Immaru. What do you want? You actually talking like I'm here now or am I just the wind? Aww it don't have to be like that. We're friends! Really? Because last time you knocked me off a cliff with one of your coins it didn't seem very friendly. Come on now. I'm a pacifist. Wouldn't hurt a fly. Unless the fly upset Eris. Well… it wouldn't be a fly at that point. At that point it'd be a problem.

***

did it just eat out of your hand? yeah he likes chicken. everybody likes chicken. well except for the ones that don't. but he's a carnivore. how do you know it is a him? I don't. in fact I think cuz he's a worm he's herma… hermi.. uh… self-fertilizin' hermaphroditic that's it. I think worms are like that. could be wrong. cant' remember. But I think so. course he might not be a actual worm. you gonna bring him with you when ya clear out? no. awww. but he likes us.

***

vanguard meeting remote in from athenaeum ikora is talking through the communicator and eris is listening with it on speaker so drifter can hear - drifter is bored

while talking continues, drifter goes to the swamp and puts bit of sandwich on the ground. slowly leaving bits of sandwich further and further away from udon and worm is crawling farther and farther out of its hole. he has it in a long line from the swamp half-way across the ritual circle when eris turns around

drifter looks up at her with a delighted grin and holds his hands out to show her how much of the worm he's coaxed out eris is not amused and stares at him angrily while vanguard meeting continues on comms

***

Eris sighed and folded her hands in her lap. The sounds of the swamp seemed loud in comparison to the silence from her comms. She heard a faint, familiar trill. Perhaps a distraction would help. She brought her data pad and crossed the ritual circle, stepping into the swamp.

A singler red-rimmed eye stared at her from a round head which swayed gently from side to side. Eris approached the bog slug slowly, one hand outstretched. It slowed its swaying and it watched her approach warily but did not pull back into the ground.

Eris crouched next to it and kept her hand outstretched. The segmented creature leaned toward her. Bit by bit Eris brought her fingertips closer until she was just barely touching the chitin of one of it’s head-horns. It trilled softly at her as her fingertips moved along its carapace. Soon her entire hand was on top of its head. It made a gentle clicking noise.

“Hey, hey, Bane of the Swarm!”

The bog slug shrank back into its hole at the audio in Eris’ ear.

“Rat.” Eris could not hide the relief in her voice. “You were gone a long time.”

I was so tempted to change the name of the cat Eris adopts in my story to Immaru. It almost fits perfectly.

Moonrat

Echinosorex gymnura

Subfamily Galericinae, family Erinaceidae, order Eulipotyphla, superorder Laurasiatheria

Despite their names they are not rats nor do they live on the Moon. They are erinaceids and they live in southeast asia. There are two subspecies. The gray, black, and white E. g. gymnura, and the white E. g. alba.

I think E. g. gymnura looks a lot like a white eared opossum, I did a post about them too.

They eat earthworms and lots of arthropods (including crabs). They also eat fruit, fish, and amphibians sometimes. They are also very stinky. Pungent.

Their head and body length ranges from 26-46 cm. (10.2-18.1 inches)

Another short drifteris oneshot I wrote during the first week of Season of the Witch. Title: Anchor Summary: When Eris Morn shares her plan to defeat Xivu Arath with the Drifter, they initially do not see eye to eye. Takes place shortly prior to the opening events of Season of the Witch.

Seeing a picture of an actual real and non-piratical (I assume) moonrat made me remember this book. I loved it as a kid. Her book The Golden Pear was also very special.

Curious if you have any snippets from or more to say about "Eris finding a renegade Hive chapel dedicated to her on the Moon"?

As requested, here are snippets from the WIP involving the Hive chapel. Capitalization/punctuation is indicative that this was composed on my phone, probably at odd hours when I could not sleep (normally my WIPs have none of that but my phone keeps 'helping').

***

Well this sure is a spooky cave. You should see the hellmouth sometime. I’ll pass. Whoa. Tread carefully. Take my hand. I will guide you. Sure is dark in here. Can you even see where you’re going? Of course not.

***

Well, they wanted you to see it. Maybe something to, I don’t know, acknowledge them? And what might accomplish that? I mean, I’m just grasping at straws here but, nah that’s a terrible idea never mind. Speak. That’s a statue of you, right? Mmhmm It’s just, hive are into bodily fluids for some reason, usually pullin’ them outta other people. Maybe smear some of your eye goo on the statue’s eyes maybe? Sorta like… peeing on it, without actually, you know peeing on it? Claiming it in a way? Crude, but there is internal consistency in your logic and it works within the principles of contagion magic. Very well.

***

Uh… They protected your sparrow That's unfortunate. It wasn't worth dying for. I'm sorry. If it's any consolation we probably would have had to defend ourselves from it on our way out. Maybe - still sucks Yes He pulled the dismembered eliksni fingers out of the vehicle and dropped them into the hole in the middle of the corpse. Looks um… displayed An attempt at communication Maybe we can get them to communicate less violently Doubtful. This is the hive. The hiss from the tunnels came again.
