    my cave?


    mine, it''s perfect, especially when I would never want anything to find me.


    [Detected cellular decay. I suggest ingesting the leftover carcass.]


    [Most likely, Master.]


    my cave.


    my cave. It''s not like I''m being territorial over my cave. I know people treasure their permanent house, but it''s my cave.


    "Sage! Estimate the distance between the carcass and my cave!"


    [Understood. 21 meters... 36 meters... 41 meters...]


    [87 meters, Master]


    "... What?"


    [The distance of carcass to cave -]


    "My cave."


    [-yes. From your cave, is 87 meters]


    ripping it apart atom by atom.


    "... Hello!"


    "... You can talk?!"


    "Yes?", it said in a tone of confusion. I couldn''t discern whether it was male or female. It even sounds androgynous from what I can hear, though I don''t think slimes don''t have gender.


    "How do you know English?"


    ""English"? Is that food?"


    "... It''s the language we''re using."


    "... "Language"?... Is that also food?"


    "If you don''t mind, do you think there are any literal differences between talking, speaking, and communicating?"


    "Umm... No?"


    "Hmm... I see. Thanks."


    "... You''re weird. I''ll just... eat somewhere."


    "Ok, be safe. By the way, my name''s Samuel. What''s yours?"


    nudged like something is trying to rip the dead drake''s flesh. And I knew that wasn''t my fellow slime. Slimes don''t have teeth.


    but to run away ASAP.


    "Run run run run run run run run run run run run!!!"


    "I already get you don''t want me anywhere, you territorial fuck!"


    skywards.


    "You felt that?! I''m not your typical slime, bitch!"


    "Such arrogance for a slime!"


    "Don''t even try to run!"


    "How dare you!"


    "I''ll rip you into pieces! I''ll drink your body and pee it on my shit! I''ll find you, you hear me?!"


    "Aaaaagh! I''ll kill you!"


    "Try me!"
