Its friends hop off to join the black blob in nibbling the green parts, which apparently provoke no such attack.

If the red creature is inclined to carry on biting its colormate plants, they can pass a companionable mealtime here, until - surprise of surprises - it becomes difficult to fit more food inside.

Permalink

That keeps happening!

Can it do the THING again and become LARGER to fit MORE FOOD??

Permalink

It can do a biggering thing, but the thing it can do feels different - less like relaxing into a more comfortable shape, like before, and more like stretching into a less comfortable shape. Or less like being something and more like doing something, like that Hot Bite it did earlier.

Permalink

That doesn't seem right.

It wants... to bite more things.

But it's SO FULL OF THINGS.

But it can't do the biggering thing PROPERLY to become LESS full of things.

...

This is CONFUSING and UPSETTING and it falls back on its very first coping mechanism, i.e. IMMEDIATELY GO BITE SOMETHING IT HAS NOT BITTEN BEFORE.

Permalink

Well, Kyokyomon is still in the nearby blueberry bush, wound around a low branch and nibbling what can be presumed to be blueberries.

Permalink

Kyokyomon is something the creature has not bitten before!

CHARGE! BITE!

Permalink

Its meat is lean and red, and sings of the glory of battles long-fought.

"Kyoo," it says as sternly as an eight-inch snake can manage, and nips at the red creature's ear.

Permalink

WHAT that's SUCH A GOOD TASTE.

—ow! Ear! Ear ow!

The creature hops backward away from its opponent with a startled noise.

It attempts to think some sort of thought, perhaps about considering the perspective of other creatures and how certain actions might tend to motivate certain responses.

Unfortunately, instead of thinking about that, it thinks about how the orange snake TASTES REALLY GOOD and JUST HURT IT, and it immediately leaps forward to bite it again.

Permalink

Kyokyomon is bit!

"Kyokyomon!" It begins to glow white.

Digimon! Di-di-digimon! Its body lengthens, and its side fins grow into the shape of longer limbs.

"Digivolve to..." Purple-and-black armor plating snaps into place all down its back. Its head-fins grow into hair, and its limbs grow claws.

Digimon! Digital monsters! The blueberry branch snaps. The ’mon hovers as its skin dims back to orange, and a crowned helm descends onto its head.

Permalink

"Ryuudamon!," it exclaims, landing on the ground. Digimon are the champions!

It faces off against the now-smaller creature, awaiting the next move.

 

Permalink

Oh! It did the thing!

The creature falls back again, startled anew by this sudden transformation. This altered orange creature looks much more difficult to bite!

For a moment it stands still, confused. Then it recalls that it has been in situations that resembled this one before, and its past self came up with a HIGHLY EFFECTIVE SOLUTION.

It hops forward and licks Ryuudamon's knee.

Permalink

A lick of Ryūdamon's knee tastes like oily skin and like standing on a battlefield from dawn to dusk, facing all challengers in honorable single combat.

Ryūdamon calmly begins picking blueberries on its claws, one-two-three four-five-six, and then sucking them up six-five-four three-two-one.

Permalink

The creature sits still for another short moment, processing this bizarre sensation.

Then it tries a blueberry.

Permalink

The blueberry tastes sweet and juicy and mushy, with a touch of serenity and the confidence that those who see you will know your intentions.

Permalink

(The green blob catches up.)

Permalink

What a good orb! Possibly its favourite orb so far! It forgets how full it is and eats a bunch more of them.

Permalink

The green blob tries a blueberry too, contemplates it, and then starts stretching in place left-and-right-and-left-and-right alternating.

(The teeny blob catches up, too.)

Permalink

Ryūdamon flashes white, shrinks, and turns back into a snake.

Permalink

Gigimon looks up in startlement at this spectacle, belatedly greets its friends with a friendly nosebop each, contemplates biting Kyokyomon, recalls what happened last time it did that, recalls the tried-and-true answer to What To Do When You Want To Bite Something But Have Some Sort Of Reason Not To, and licks Kyokyomon's face.

Permalink

Kyokyomon licks it right back, with a long forked tongue.

(Its face flavor is apparently skin and battle-glory.)

Then it moves toward slithering off to a different plant.

Permalink

(The teeny blob is doing high-hops in place, and on every fourth attempts a backflip, with variable success.)

Permalink

Now both of its friends are doing interesting movement things! It attempts to copy the Green Blob Dance.

Permalink

It's difficult to do the exact same thing with a less squishy body, but it can copy the dance pretty well if it uses its legs to tilt its body left and right and left and right.

If the red creature continues copying this dance for a little while, it might feel its legs getting a little stronger. If it continues past that point, it might start feeling hungrier, too.

Permalink

!!! Now it can EAT MORE THINGS!! What an exciting trick!!

It immediately scarfs down several more blueberries.

Permalink

Yum, blueberries! As it eats more and more of them they stop tasting quite so much like serenity and clarity of intention, but the sweet mushy flavor continues as strong as ever.
