tea house is getting popular

  which is another way of saying

  humans

  are

  everywhere

  this used to be such a nice neighbourhood

  maybe i should just move

  go back to basics

  underground tinylair

  inconspicuous

  subtle

  leave biscuit fort as a distraction. lock it all up and get some drones just continually making new walls. on the inside. as ants and humans destroy walls on the outside. drones digging out dirt. building walls out of dirt. until finally ants and humans get to the centre.

  and it's just a really deep hole

  would that be funny

  or just sad

  well

  one good thing

  shield is great against bullets

  usually only loses a few layers

  so i can get shot like ten times before i actually

  y'know

  get shot

  i mean it's not fun or anything. getting shot even with a shield is not a positive experience. although. seeing a human get really surprised and angry that the person he shot. is not dead. is pretty funny.

  note: humans expect guns to solve problems. especially problem of 'i want that thing to be dead'. when gun does not solve problem. human gets. angry. sad. not at gun. human still loves gun. human hates thing that didn't die.

  given up on tidying tea room. drones can take care of structural damage. no more hot water. infinite tea hidden inside giant chunk of wall. nobody even tried to solve my puzzles. secret biscuits remain secret. everything else is. trashed. so. humans can just. i don't know. eat raw coffee. hunt for biscuit crumbs. i tried to make it nice. i did try.

  The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

  last ones shot my buttons

  except buttons are bulletproof

  i am not silly

  i would not make a button. in a place. where humans will be. and not consider the possibility of a human shooting a button.

  that was like the first thing i thought of

  'someone is definitely going to shoot this with a bullet from a gun'

  anyway

  one bullet bounced off and hit another human

  which would have been funny

  except

  well okay yes it was funny

  but also

  notfunny

  but really really funny

  but

  i don't know

  this is why i tried to remove myself from things. it's all just so complicated. i can't understand any of it. it makes me feel. bad. tight. separated. more separated than when i am actually literally separated. i am also a human. i am also. weird. impossible. whatever. i don't know. i just want to be left alone. i just want to do my things. even with the ants i didn't mind so much. well it wasn't great when my face got melted. that was a low point. but generally it was stuff that i was able to deal with.

  conclusion is always that humans are better without me donking their stuff up and i am better without humans donking my stuff up

  maybe teleporting the whole city was not such a bad idea

  maybe earlier version of jin is. alsogood.

  jin v3.147 cyborgantwarveteran might have things to learn. from just. jin.

  anyway

  finally had a look at antweb reports computer has been pestering me about. for. ever. that stuff is. wild. antigrav stuff going on except probably not anti gravity exactly. gravity is pretty tough. not something you can just rebel against. but definitely a lot lighter and tougher than it should be. computer keeps going on like 'jin this is not physically possible' and i'm like yeah okay but i am holding it in my robot hand so probably it is a bit possible. and computer's like 'jin you make a good point but jin listen to this' and i'm all like yeah? and computer's like 'jin this stuff is not physically possible' and i'm all like oh you.

  missed my chats with computer

  haven't done a lot with antweb findings yet. also regret exploding waterfactory before harvesting more of it. rookie mistake jin. you loot the place and then you vortex bomb it. get your order of actions right. did figure out a new chitinskin. got thinking about flexibility and stuff. ants have. weirdjoints. v strong necks. made a new connection thing for my roboarm out of antbit tech. can't really feel any difference but it should be stronger and better. so. there's that.

  but yes new chitinskin. softer. but still stronger than squishy human skin. i mean i know i got shields. just. its nice to have nonmelted skin on face. put like a black and white chessboard pattern on it. dunno. just like that pattern. put a new scar on it. improvement on old scar. chitinskin offers both texture and depth. feels a bit itchy and weird but eh. temporary stuff. soon it will be. normal.

  haven't seen girl again

  respect girl i call her

  she respected tea room

  she sat in a corner

  maybe she's dead

  eaten by ants

  or killed by humans

  saw humans shooting at each other one time

  stupid

  don't care

  don't know

  later
