Do farmer ancients have to cut the worm grass?
Is it any good to eat or is it just a weed? I imagine it could make a good garnish, I always imagine worm grass as homicidal green onion.
Also, what kinda tools/weapons do they use? Do they use guns to fight off predators or do they rely on spears and such, maybe electric spears as cattle prods to fend off the deer who shall not be named?
most likely they have to, yeah! can't have that shit growing tall and deathly dangerous to Them too. i can imagine that worm grass is often around the actual plots with the crops to keep em safe from smaller herbivors
you people and askin me what these fictional people stick into their mouths i swear sdjgklkcmsldmlk honestly anything living can be food if u prepare it well, so sure, yeah, worm grass is edible under Certain Circumstances. i can't help but think of it as some fucked up chewy gummy worm.....
usual farm tools are present! they have spade forks, axes (trees real, wood usually used for some building or woodcutting art, Sparrows' mask is made of wood!), shovels (Sparrows' favorite weapon of choice), scythes n so on
the weaponry is more sophisticated than what we get in game, absolutely. though electric spears as cattle prod i Do Really Like, you're smart

chemical warfare (pesticide can get wild) and guns are often utilized. each family has at least one designated expert at one of these and for Sparrows' family it's the elder twin brothers, Breeze and Inferno. took interest in the respective offensive crafts as kids and nerded about it hard. one of their duties is passing some skills on the other kids in the family- Sparrows is a pretty solid shot thanks to Inferno's endless enthusiasm for bullets in chitin covered heads
in the first Beppi noodle they are actually gettin ready to drop a lil pesticide dynamite stick shaped thing into a thingy- prolly their version of a silo

i've a Scenario
Tumblr media
updated thought-thru version: all bugs in the game are things that naturally occur in the world (+ also lizards. to me.), so beastly centipedes were a thing even back then n maybe even more common. the red centipede thing happened when Sparrows was 18 and Not Yet in the respawn cycle. she likes putting her life in danger despite not wanting to die, apparently
it was scuttling through the streets, so you can imagine how much of an issue That was. the whole district capable of fighting (plus dumbo teen Sparrows) got together and hunted it down. when she managed to bump into it in an alley, it was already injured and stripped of a lot of its armor and she Still managed to waste like five bullets before actually getting the first head. the second one was a much cleaner, faster hit. mom grounded her for a month
later she even invited Breeze and Inferno to help her out with the spider infestation of Caper's underhang, that's how Euros met them. Inferno had the time of his fuckin Life shooting it all up while suspended upside down
