[video] Searching for parents

[emet_sulk]

[ Emet-Selch looks a little harried and stressed today when the video feed begins. There is a little axolotl clinging to a front lock of his hair, gently chewing. He either doesn't notice or doesn't care as there is urgency to his gaze and tone. ]

Should anyone encounter a pair of ambystomae - I mean, axolotls - with a carnivorous tendency, please abstain from killing them immediately and inform me of their location. I need to return their child to them.

[ This won't stop anyone killing the many axolotls involved in the search but he has to hope he finds the parents before they're accidentally killed. ]

Then?

[Say it, coward.]

[ He shrugs, frowning at the infant axolotl as he tries to encourage it to latch on to his finger instead of his hair. ]

Then I will kill them. But for my friend's sake, I would rather not.

[Well, at least he's willing to admit it. +1/100000000 respect.]

You would prefer not to start a war. Understandable. Perhaps capturing, then, is more logical.

Perhaps. But I know 'tis unreasonable to dictate what others do when their lives are threatened. Hence my hope that most will see this and keep their distance first. If these invaders do not return home with the child, I dare not think what the rest of their tribe may think or do in response.
