You shake off some of the glass shards caught in your scales from the impact that shattered the wall of glass that looks out from the top floor of this building. You found the other windows in this building were weaker, last time you got to see this view personally, but this one seems to have been reinforced.

Bright lights shine down from where they are embedded in the roof, illuminating everything in the room despite the blackness of the night sky outside. Many statues carved from marbled stone stand around the room. A curious number of them look very similar to the man you are trying to eat. One sits on a stone pedistal, cowering and shielding its neck with an arm, and another hides its stinger behind a leaf, as if shameful of such a powerful biomorph. Humans are such strange creatures.

With a metallic whine, your creator snarls at the man. "You can't weaponise my bioweapons! That's completely not fair!"
He raises an eyebrow at the screens. "Really?" It is as if he doesn't even regard you as a threat!

I like this, is there a way to shut out the lights in this place and try to slip into the darkness?

You recall that most lights have cables that power them, but these ones look like they're built into the roof, which looks solid. There's usually a switch around somewhere, that turns them off though... There it is! There's one near the door of the room, glass one you smashed to get in by.

You scramble towards the man, while he looks distracted. You make it about half the distance before the flailing of your limbs catches his eye, and the Delicious weapon is brought to bear on you. There is a high pitch whine and an electric blue light sparks from the rear of the gun, and a glob of bright green goo flies towards you.

You catch the floor with your suckers and dash to the side, behind one of the statues as the floor where the shot landed starts to hiss and bubble.

"Hey, get out of there!"

>I think for the sake of posting speed I'm going to start cutting two stage suggestions into two parts, with a breakpoint in between as normal. Is this acceptible? I feel it takes too long to write long posts, and that makes it boring.

You dart from statue to statue. While the delicious fleshbag keeps the gun pointed at you, he doesn't shoot.
"Worried about those stupid effigies of yourself?"
"Each one of them is worth ten times that grant I had you lose. You have no appreciation of value, Eliza."

You reach the doorway, and dart out from your cover to flip the light switch. The whine fills the air again, and there are two more blue-white flashes from the gun as he fires at you again. You claw the door switch, plunging the room into darkness. The first shot takes out some of the shattered glass still hanging in the door frame, and the second hits the switch pannel, which starts to melt and leak out of its frame and down the wall as the eerily green glowing acid darkens.

>Not dead, and I will try my best not to abandon you. It's just I had a pretty terrible week at work, lost internet for the only time I had available to run, and other such funtimes.
>I missed you guys so much.

Your eyes adjust rather quickly to the darkness, but you lose all of your colour vision. The room is lit only by the fake light of the tv screens and desktop computer, and the faint reflections of the moons from outside. The delicious fleshbag has moved! He isn't standing by his desk anymore, and the room is filled with things that look almost exactly like him. Your poor vision gives you little clues as to which is he.

You leap to the ceiling, propelling yourself off the statue you were just using as cover, this one being the same man again, carrying a large stone orb. As the thing teeters and begins to fall, you grab the roof with your suckers and crawl across the roof.

There! You'd recognise that eyesore pattern on a shirt even if there wasn't any light to see it with. Also it's the only one holding the Delicious gun.

The statue falls with an enourmous crash, and you use the sound to cover that of your claws as you veritably gallop across the roof and leap off towards him. It's also the only Delicious one, you realise mid air.

Right as the fleshbag begins to swear you collide with it, clawing at its head and neck and gouging marks that quickly begin to leak glistening blood. The human drops the strange weapon to defend its vitals with its arms. You gouge into them, but can't seem to knock them aside.

You hang from the thing as it leans away from you, claws scrabbling at its thin pants and wings flapping furiously to try to keep you there.

You bite into the arms that protect him, your powerful mandibles shredding through flesh and muscle. The meatsack grunts in pain and tries to shove you off him, but you just dig your foreclaws into its limbs to get a better grip.

Your creator calls out with a static filled voice from across the room: "What's going on? I can't see at thing!"

You bite at the muscular humans arms again, but this time fill one with your deadly venom. He screams as your fangs pump the toxin into his flesh, causing the arm to begin twitch wildly.

All of a sudden the creature's knee hits you, hard, in the stomach. Your scales to little to absorb the blunt impact, and you nearly double over instinctively as the corrosive fluids inside your organs threaten to burst out. When you recover you find the human has run towards his desk. He slams a fist onto it, and a dim red light fills the room.

"Someone get up here, now!" he shouts as he clutches one limp arm with the other. A booming voice echoes out, seemingly from the walls, repeating exactly what he said.

You hear the noise of an engine from outside, and a loud roar and a door slamming open from the reception area.

You leap onto the back of human, knocking him into the heavy desk, and bite deeply into its neck. He struggles as you crush it with your mandibles, but you put too much pressure and the pitiful creature can't even scream as you choke it. One arm grabs at you, but it can't seem to get a good grip on your scales.

From the screens before you your creator stares at you, her lips pursed. The man goes goes limp and your creator's face lights up as she bars her teeth in a wicked grin.

Then there is another roar, and something large knocks the remnants of the door off its hinges. You turn, and see a bright red maw, floating at about chest height. The brightness of it makes it hard to see the creature in any detail, and from the maw you can feel waves of heat eminating out as it casts a glow on the room, and you. The creature roars and a jet of fire cuts the air in front of it, as it charges towards you.

Outside the multipart engine drone gets louder. It sounds like it is coming from above.

>>26797199
Wouldn't it take like, two seconds to eat the gun? Let's just chomp on it

You jump out of the way and dive amongst the statues just as the flaming maw gets to you. The thing overshoots and takes a huge bite out of the desk and computer. You get a brief view of a long fat oblong, covered in smooth, matte armor plates before it turns the maw back to you. Inside the furcance of it's jaw you see pieces of desk and computer disentegrating as they burn up. The delicious creature doesn't appear to have limbs.

You dart between the statues and grab the delicious weapon in a clawed hand on your way back out through the entrance. You scurry through the waiting room and crash through the doors to the receptionist's office. The room is just as you left it, with potted plants and plush chairs and of course the receptionist herself, still bound to the wall with your hardened metal paper. Her ears flit between pointing at you, and the sliding behemoth that chases you. The only difference is the door to the stairs appears to have been knocked off it's hinges, lying in two pieces on the floor.

You worked so hard to sire childeren, you're not sure it's worth fleeing just yet. Perhaps you can eat this new creature... It is Delicious, after all. As is the weapon you hold. The gun is no bigger then a human head, with a thin metal sheath that hides almost everything inside.

with that roll, we'll hit. leave it be, theres enough support for it

The creature chasing you bursts into the room, and into the light. It is a thick, wormlike thing, coated with reddish armored plates that appear to be made of stone. It looks around the room with tiny eyes that peer out from between plates on its head.

You point your weapon at the thing's head and pull the trigger, just like you did with the shotgun. There is a whine, and a flash, and you can hear something squeal in pain, as a glob of bright green acid flies from the weapon to hit the sluglike meatbag. The acid hits the thing in the flank and it's armour bubbles and begins to melt away. It gives off a rumbling squeak and charges towards you again, horrible maw wide open.

You jump to the side, dodging its clumsy charge and shoot it again. There is another squeal of pain from both the gun and the creature when the acid hits it on the flank, right beside the previous shot. It charges and you dodge again, shooting it once more. A third time it charges, and you leap up onto the wall, flinging acid at it again and again, burning a hole in its armor and melting the flesh underneath. The fleshbag shudders and spasms as its flesh and muscles are destroyed all on one side, and then and huge gout of flame bursts forth from the creature's flank, searing a hole in the wall.

You jump out of the way of the jet and watch as the incredible heat inside the creature burns the hole in its side large and large. You feel the deliciousness of the creature begin to leave as it dies.

You are hungry.

Oh shit. Ok i will admit shooting was at least a better idea than using our claws.
Fucking fire elementals

You drop the Delicious weapon with a clatter and run to the flaming creature, intent on eating it before its deliciousness is all gone. You bite at its tail, but the heavy plates are tough, and while you can score them, they're far too thick to eat through quickly enough. You try to jump into the soft flesh of it's flank, but the white hot flames sear your scales. It would be a really bad idea to put your face in that, you think. You climb around to the face of the creature, just in time to see the last glint of life, and it's deliciousness, leave its body.

You snarl angrily to yourself as the fire dies down. There's nothing delicious about this pile of rocks and meat any more.

You grab the dropped gun, and scurry back to the office, still lit by the red glow of the emergency lights, and the flickering blue light from the array of screens.

Your creator stares at you, still with pursed lips. Her face is twisted in a frown.
"I'm very unhappy with you. How could you try to kill him in the dark! I couldn't see! And then you killed the Magmaborn Wormslug in the other room!"

The body of the man you killed lies there, missing a hand from the plated worm's misplaced bite. Thankfully he's still Delicious.

There goes my attempt at being poetic.

You ignore your creator, and tear the thin metal coating off the weapon. Beneath you see a wormlike thing coiled around some metal devices, with its mouth bolted open over the barrel of the gun. There are a few cables that run from the trigger to the back of the things head, sparking madly. It looks at you with it's one remaining eye, as if asking you for something. You tear all the undelicious bits out of it, and bite down hard, devouring the thing.

Fueled by bestial need, you follow the first course with a delicious helping of Man.

Ribs and Knowledge

You hear a dull thud in your chest, which startles you. Then another. And another. It settles into a steady rhythm, and you can feel your body begin to flow, moving things around. You will heal slowly from damage you take, provided you don't lose too much blood.

You feel your vocal chords split, and a new cavity opens halfway down your mouth, expanding into an air sack. You can now screach extremely loudly, which can disorient creatures which use sound to detect... Or get you noticed very quickly.

There is a drone of engines from outside and the room is suddenly filled with increadibly bright light. Outside the shattered window three mechanical things float, bright spotlights scanning across the room and blinding you when they pass over you.

You can just make out your creator blanch at the intrusion, and you hear her voice over the whine of the engines. "Oh bugger, it's the camera drones! Meet me on the roof and we'll get out of here. I'll be there in no more then a minute or two!" The screens cut to a white snowstorm, and a metallic buzz fills the speakers.

yes, but he also knows the OTHER side of the story of our creator, which is something we should really fill in the details of.
More importantly, he's familiar with her work, and knows how to modify eliza's creations.

So, we should REALLY take his knowledge.
Though its slightly wierd, since it's bundled into sense of self?
But yeah. That's something we really need, if we're to throw the shackles off our creator at some point. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to get ahead of the plot - if we don't take it now, there won't be another chance to eat the same guy again, like there will be for other members of his species.

You run blindly into the other wall, only knocking over a further three statues, which break and crumble when they hit the floor. You wrench your dam from the wall where she is stuck, not bothering to disolve the metal binding her. With a heave parts of the wall give way and, you sling her onto your back, holding her in place with your wings as you scramble on four legs to the stairs. It's a short trip, and the female fleshbag is very light so spiralling up the few flights isn't tiring at all.

You kick down the door at the top, and find a large open area that looks over the city. The camera drones have followed you up, and circle around you from a distance, shining their spotlights at you.

After moment your creator arrives, flying a strange vehicle with open sides and jet propulsion.

"Jump in and we- Who is this? Why haven't you eaten them already?! Did you get his big head, and decide to start collecting trophies?"

>>26798614
>You're always Hungry.

"Saving her for later."
"How much later? Am I going to have to feed her and get a room and-"
A flash of light lances past the vehicle before flying into the clouds above. You nearly drop the struggling bound creature as your creator recoils.

"You feed her. She bears the other hunger."
"Oh science disprove it. I made you self sufficent and so you don't need to eat because all the ones who did didn't end up surviving that long. I'm really bad at looking after th- Wait say that again?"
"This one carries my young."
"OH MY WORD YOU FUCKED HER! This is amazing!"

Your creator jumps from her seat to grab you by the mandibles, shaking your face with enthusiasm.
"Show me show me show me, I gotta see!"

The flying machine lists quite a way to the right, but your creator doesn't seem to notice.

But she claimed she was infertile because obviously a genius biologist who has already demonstrated extensive modifications to her body couldn't fix that.

"We show later! Run now! Run fast!"
"That's not important, we can fly anytime, I want to see it now!"
The whole frame of the vehicle shudders as something hits it hard from underneat.
"DRIVE! I will show you later!"
"Okay, okay, fine. Don't get your panties in a knot. Mine are already plenty knotted for the both of us."

"Oh by the way," your creator says as she grabs the control stick again, "I got you a present, look!"

You follow her finger, pointed behind you. You turn, and see-

It's your rival! He's here to steal your mate!

>>26798949

The beastly thing doesn't even have feathers anymore, but you have to scare him off nevertheless. You try to puff yourself up- and remember that you don't have feather either anymore! You are dimly aware of the ship rocking as you stare him down. You pace back and forth, following him as he stalks you. But he's not backing down.

Of course! You have a new trick to scare this thing. You subtly draw air into your air sack, and then just as he opens his mouth you let out a deafening screech.

Your rival shatters, unable to stand the noise and falls apart into a thousand pieces.

You giggle proudly to yourself, before realising that something is wrong. Your mate is gone, vanished into thin air! Then you realise that you aren't flying anymore. The aircraft, is sitting in a large dark hangar with blank walls. One engine is smoking and charred marks mar the hull all over.

You see two obvious pathways. From on you can hear humming, and from the other is ragged breathing.

You are hungry.

>>26798958
ragged breathing

holy hell how did we lose so much time?

>>26798958
Wait...I'm REAAALLY confused now
what just happened?

>>26798958

follow the ragged breathing, if it is our mate, do not eat her.

>>26798983

we are not very clever with mirrors.

>>26799002
basically our battle with the mirror distracted us so much that we missed both landing and everyone exiting the ship.

>>26799002
We lost a lot of time when we entered a staring contest with our rival.
We sure showed that bastard, though.

>>26799034
>>26799033
Are you telling me we got into a staring content for hours!?

Alright, in hindsight, really should've gotten self awareness

>>26799053
I dont think you know how the concept of mirrors confuses the fuck out of animals

You scamper off towards the ragged breathing, leaving the smouldering wreck of the plane behind. After following the featureless black corridoor for a few turns you come across what seems to be a storage room of some sort. Chained to the floor in the middle of the room is a nondelicious creature, a squat thing with hulking shoulders and ragged fur. Many ropes loop around the creature, tying it tight, and it has been blindfolded and gagged by strips of fabric. Over the top of its bindings there is a pink ribbon, tied in an elaborate bow, and a small paper tag on a loop of string.

The thing is breathing heavily through its squashed nose, yanking every few seconds on the chain that connects it to the floor. When you approach it from the doorway it recoils from you, retreating as far as its chain will let it.

>>26799150
>Read the tag.

>>26799150
what! that bitch doesnt even give us delicious snacks anymore! poor form. also, read tag

Rolled 42

>>26799162
can we read?

>>26799180
I'm fairly sure. We've got two or three creature's knowledge and the CEO's(?) in our head.

>>26799150

can we read the tag?

it's not delicious so not rally worth our time beyond that.

>>26799150
It's got a pink bow.
So it's our kid, I guess. The fur is because of its mother.

You approach the thing, which cowers away from you, and peer intently at the tag. It appears to be brown paper, with a little plastic ring that the string goes through. On it is a white piece of card, with black squiggles all over it. It doesn't seem to serve any useful purpose.

You turn to leave the worthless thing when suddenly the smell of its damp fur becomes undeniably Delicious.

You turn to find the creature's posture changed. It sits up tall and looks around, then snifs at the air.
"Ogh! Fumone's 'ere a'ain." It mutters through the fabric. "'re oo 'onna 'ell me wha' oo wan' wi' 'is 'un?"

ungag it/her and ask her what she said

>>26799265
Dang, I guess we can't read? Or does our creator just have really awful handwriting?

>>26799283
may as well. also, dat roll

>>26799265
Ungag it...let's see what this thing is exactly.

>>26799265

supporting >>26799283

but let's not touch any of the other bonds.

>>26799284
>Yes.

You reach out with a claw and tear the things gag off.
"What did you say?" You ask, in your gravelly voice.
"I _asked_ what you were going to do with this one! I've been here for hours and every time I try to ask this one gets punched in the face! This is a crime! I'll have you arrested, whoever you are!"

>>26799265
It speaks of itself as "this one" and becomes delicious.
I smell a hivemind.

>>26799364
Eh eat em

Rolled 63

>>26799364
eat it
it can't struggle

>>26799368
Just in time for our kid(s). Truly our creator gives the best gifts.

>>26799364
"I am going to eat 'that one' now."
And then eat it!

>>26799364
so they have no sentience whilst sleeping?

>>26799364

well, our creator shouldn't have left him lying around with tags we can't read.

eating 'this one' seems like the obvious route.

"I am going to eat 'that one' now."
"What? No! That's a crime! You can't eat this one! I don't care if they count as nonsentient by whatever rulebook you're using, they're a part of me and _I'm_ sentient! I've had it up to here with you 'gourmet' diners an-"
You bite through the things arm and start eating the delicious flesh underneath, savouring it.
"Ahh! That's it! I've had it! AHH! I'm going to find you and rip your stomach out you filthy-"
Just as suddenly as it came, the deliciousness evaporates out of the creature and it becomes bland. It struggles, biting at you and fighting back.

You go for its neck, tearing it out as it squeals, but it's a sadly undelicious squeal. You nibble on the things severed neck, but it's just not tasty. You can't seem to fall into the Feast like you usually can.

You are hungry.

You could continue eating it, you think. But it wouldn't be tasty at all.

>>26799532
look around. snuffle, annoyed. find something interesting to look at.

>>26799532
Let's go find our creator and tell her that we're Very Disappointed with our meal. It's spoiled.

>>26799532
Man what the fuck is with this thing
leave it be lets going find our babby

>>26799560
It's probably one of the 'limbs' for a psychic hivemind creature. Since we can only eat sapients, it's only sapient sometimes. When the 'core' is reaching out, I think. We'd need to find and nom the core personally.

>>26799532

that was a disappointment, let's go check out the humming.

>>26799532
So....no one is worried that we just pissed off some sentience elsewhere?

You head back to the other path, towards the humming. The room beyond is around only a single corner, and in it you find your creator. She's currently standing on a table wearing a labcoat and shaking her rear protective padding at something you can't see. She's also singing out loud.
"Labcoats, labcoats~~ Why are you so fine~?"
"Oh labcoats, you are divine~~!"

"Oh, twelve!" She says as she catches sight of you. "Did you find your present? I wrapped it up all nicely for you!"

>>26799629
He was strange tasty but then not tasty

>>26799622
Why would we be? We want to kill that sentience, and it has no idea what or who we are, other than we tried to eat one of it.

>>26799629
"It's spoiled." Then sit on our haunches and cross our claws, very put out by the situation.

>>26799629
Make a face and gurgle as if our stomach hurts
"Not delicious...voice was delicious, but voice leave when we bite..."

>>26799636
>>26799629
Also where the baby at?

>>26799629
it wasnt tasty. we want tasty. then giggle, and try to screw her. hopefully there wont be needles around this time

"He was strange tasty but then not tasty"
"Really? Damn. I was sure it would work." She raises her fist at something far above. "Curse you loopholes! You should always work for me, not against me!"

"Not delicious...voice was delicious, but voice leave when we bite..."
"Oh of course. _She_ would leave as soon as one of her stupid minions gets bitten. I don't know why she doesn't hang around to experience the death. I mean what a waste! I don't even get to die once, do you know how cool it would be to die like four hundred times and still be around? Think of all the data!"

You think back to the miriad of interspices dating knowledge you devoured... Ah ha! If you push your lips out then humans do what you want. You don't have lips though, but...

You press your mandibles together, and push them forward and wobble them slightly.
"It wasnt tasty. We want tasty."
Your creator looks at you, and her eyes grow damp. Her bottom lip quivers as she jumps down off the table and leans down to level her head with yours. You notice that her 'fine lab coat' doesn't offer much protection, as you can see the flesh right above her heart.
"I'm so sorry! I really thought it would work! Truely I did! I'll make the next one extra specially tasty, I promise."

>>26799849
"Your eyes are leaking."

>>26799849
WHERES THE BABY

>>26799849
POUTING SUCCESSFUL.

>>26799849

haha, it worked.

"Where is my mate?"

Monster pout successful.

Where is incubation womb at anyway?

>>26799849
WEE WANT NOW. bratty child 100%

>>26799849
how delicious is she? or is she still that weird semi delicious?
also, demand food soon. we hunger. and ask what happened to our babby mammy

"Your eyes are leaking."
Your creator sniffles and wipes her eyes. "Nonsense. It's not like I'm a horrible mother who can't provide for her young or anything."

"Where are my offspring at?"
"Here!"

Your creator grabs you by the neck and pulls you into the room. Inside you see...
Oh no. Your mate! She is in a sealed cylindrical tank of yellowish water, banging on the surface facing you. Bubbles float to the surface, around the cables and tubes that seem to be binding her there. She is drowning!

Here, have one of mine
Neckbeard Edition

>>26799992
you're excellent. hopefully once we gain sentience we can live without eating everything. and the good doctor is interesting. remote control body? THE ELDER BRAIN? thanks for running, as always

>>26800082
>I kind of expected you to ask more questions about that of Dr Eliza Ville, but oh well. It was a good point to break, I think.

>>26800101
we can always break her non-delicious body. is it organic?

>>26800130
>Some of it is, but you're no carnivore.

>>26800130
Who the fuck knows? She could be an AI in a humanoid lab-grown shell, or she could be mostly cybernetic, or something. Her brain could be a nanocloud that hovers around her body at all times, or something like that.

>>26800101
I have a billion questions about her. But none I fear that are meta enough to ask

>>26800164
>I'll answer if I can.

>>26800130

we really have no reason to harm her though, she's not delicious but she brings us to, or delicious things to us, it's a pretty win-win situation for twelve.

>>26800210
but if she's organic, we could try to fulfil the other hunger. she's too interesting to eat when there is no materiel benefit

>>26800153
those were the options i was assuming. should be fun

>>26800181
Well alright

How is this lady so crazy and not been arrested?

If we're 12, and the gun was a different number, are we gonna find a dozen other of her creations?

Where does she get all these fancy equipment and resources from?

To name a few.

>>26800272
>>How is this lady so crazy and not been arrested?
>implying she hasn't been
>>If we're 12, and the gun was a different number, are we gonna find a dozen other of her creations?
>implying she counts in any sensible order
>>Where does she get all these fancy equipment and resources from?
>implying a biological weapons expert has trouble getting things ever

>>26800354
Fair enough on all accounts I guess then.

>>26800354
is it reasonable to assume that at the local max-security prison, there will be a row of E. Ville's (i got that, dont worry), who are all empty clones who have given up on showing them all? and that somewhere, there is a row of pods containing clones, waiting for sentience to posess them?

>>26800354
Does she have any living family that aren't things she created?
What's her favorite crime of being charged with?
Does she have a room full of jars containing her aborted fetuses?
How many degrees does she have?
How many degrees could she had have if she hadn't been kicked out for behavioral issues?

>>26800537
>>Does she have any living family that aren't things she created?
>Her brother has been mentioned.
>>What's her favorite crime of being charged with?
>Licking the Empress' eyeball without consent.
>>How many degrees does she have?
>What's so special about a degree anyway? I mean really, all it is is a piece of paper given out by the BORING scientists who try to instil things like The Scientific Method and other useless junk into their students.
>>Does she have a room full of jars containing her aborted fetuses?
>No. That would be weird.

>>26800512
>No comment.
