OPEN || Kinda Bug and Kinda Snack

Who: Turo & You!
Status: Open
Where: Snaxburg Island
What: Snaxburg Secrets MANTA Quest, exploring the town-sized island and taking everything in. Building up what is essentially a Snaxdex. Other shenanigans likely to ensue.(Prose or brackets, I'll match you)
Warnings: Will but any up as needed.

Exploration 🐞

A
[Really, this was just the thing to get into after properly resting after an incident last month -and fortunate he did rest, given the mess of things elsewhere- was to head to a newly discovered island. Even if on the smaller side, the rumored life there sounded absolutely fascinating, and reason there were several notebooks stashed away in his leather bag along with a few other items more meant for anyone else exploring he might stumble across as well.

Even the moment he started in, the darting sweetie flies of various kinds were eye catching, and carefully he was able to coax a glittering one that looked like rock candy on a stick to land on his hand.]


Well, you are magnificent little one.


B
[Turo had stopped to take pictures of a few Bugsnax that were marching along, a section which had fallen behind racing to catch up, when a rather glittering, brightly colored bugsnack practically leapt into view to strike a pose the moment the sound of the shellphone's camera had gone off. Rather excitedly as well.]

Oh. You... like attention?

[INSTA!] Ah, I see.

[This one would likely stay still enough for him to sketch out- even if it wasn't necessary, but easier to share like the pictures would be...]


Take It All In 🍔

[It hadn't really been too long into Turo's adventure before a couple of Bungers had taken to following after him. Bouncing along with every step, even rushing along as if to ensure a few more aggressive of their kind kept a distance.

More so when Turo had found a good place to sit that had so many varieties of them milling about so he could pull out one of the notebooks and start sketching a few groups amongst the pages that carried a few more individual pieces that had notes with them.

Even with a few of the somewhat larger Bugsnax flying around, almost at ease with his presence.

Even with things like Loaded Spuddies and a few Flapjackarak meandering around. Watching how they seemed to 'hunt' around here.]


Are you two not hungry?

[Bunger Bunger Bunger—]

Hm. If you are sure.


Wildcard! 🃏

[That was definitely unnatural. And implied that either all the creatures were made up of others, or that attempting to kill them would only result in their multiplying.

Daqiang made them visible once more. He really could only hold it for a few minutes a day and any time he could save the better.]


The implications of that are... concerning.

Observe as much as you can, but avoid touching what you do not have to.

[An order. Turo was certain to have already intended to do such, but now Daqiang wanted to know what other oddities these creatures had in case they were equally suspicious. When something is injured and dying, it should die, not scatter into multiple other creatures that looked nothing like the original.]

This venerable one will return to the ship and inform the sailing crew to avoid the creatures until we know more. We should not risk an infestation should one be injured and similarly transform itself.
