[quote=Tyki] i give the creature a small slap to try and wake it up, saying "c'mon... get your lazy ass up" before picking it up and carrying it over to the cabin, laying it in the bed and waiting for it to wake up, the scouts to come back, and a progress report on the agricultural pursuits i had ordered [/quote] As you move your hand to slap the creature it's right arm darts up, closing around your wrist. It holds you in place with incredible strength, unexpected even for a being of such musculature, as it's right eye slowly opens, and it's left flickers to life. When it speaks, it's voice is heavy and deep, and yet almost monotone. "Simulation minds fully active. Synchronisation rate rising. Synchronisation rate at 150%." It looks you over, and as it speaks energy crackles over it's body, and you can hear the zoom of mechanics activating, somewhere within it's body. "Identify yourself."
