*Static from nearby radio*

It's ok. I'll walk you through it... from over here. First we need to decide, are the tendrils natural, mechanical, or magical.

And more importantly, do they seem to want you dead, or is it just a sad, cold egg reaching out for a caretaker?

*Sad music through the radio.*

*walks in purely to smack CP over the head for the suggestion that she laid any egg*

Oh hai, Swi-

*A yelp, bang, then just ambient static over the radio.*

...Cp?

...CP?!

...CP! ANSWER ME DAMN IT! HELP!

*Static.... Until...*

Borg! The egg isn't Swix's! Get away! Don't touch it!

*GURGLE*

Well.
Borg's dead. Or trapped inside an egg. Or... dead while inside an egg.

If only there was something we could have done.

Well... actually, I suppose we could have had any number of opportunities to save him... but... that's beside the point now.

*squelch*

Hmm...

Let's see. Swix left it behind... it has tendrils... and seems to be liquid enough to pull things in and gurgle...

Oh! Oh no!

*Runs outside to see if it might be... The Collector!*

Hut, here I was thinking it was just a random egg.

HAVE FUN WITH C!

*Cp rushes outside, jogging the way until he's sure sure it's her. He sighs, hides his fear, and calmly walks the rest of the way until he can sit down neatly in front of her.*

Hey C! How's you?

*Watches the slowly wriggling tendrils of the egg.*

That's a new form. Little... odd. Is it because it's spring?

*Stares at bubble rippling the gooey mess.*

Well... anyway. I think you might have accidentally sucked someone up into there. Might be pretty cool to let them out. You know, instead of mutating them into how you think your new servant should look.

Eh... food for thought?

C: Now why would I want to go and do a silly thing like that?

Well... what is it you want him for?

Perhaps we can trade?

Oh, I don't know. I was bored and he just happened to be there... bad luck for him I guess. Maybe I could trade him for someone else?

And what are you gonna... do with that person inside your shell?
