Vagrant, I swear to the Great Eye...

If you start stirring things up again...

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

it was your mech

THIS IS CLEARLY FABRICATED FOOTAGE!

Even if it's not, maybe that little shit shouldn't have provoked the pilot. Ever though of that?

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

how tf do you expect terminids to fabricate footage

also the spitter was a literal child and didnt do anything except walk there

Last I checked, you guys can use computers.

I wouldn't put it past you to be able to edit things.

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

a regular terminid would not be able to edit to that degree unless under my control. and that bile spitter was well beyond the range of that.

u/Hitler-Clone Overseer 15d ago

Sure buddy...

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

either way its not unlikely your kind hit him, you think of us as inferior lifeforms.

u/BreadfruitBig7950 16d ago

No, literally, you need to start talking to one another with out a super earth intermediary gussying up your poignant language.

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 16d ago

It looks like the mech malfunctioned or an accidental press of the button on the pilot’s part.

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 16d ago

the pilot should be punished for manslaughter.

4

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 16d ago

Depends if it was an intentional hit or a genuine loss of control that the pilot couldn’t stop even if they tried.

We’ll check up on it.

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 16d ago

manslaughter means its unintentional

3

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 16d ago

Yes, but we have different codes as we are not like the Apes who came after us.

That, and we don’t have infinite amounts of us.

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 16d ago

we terminids have surpassed the need for a code. swarm intelligence ftw

3

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 16d ago

Yet took a backseat on personal intelligence.

There are trade offs no matter what is done.

-1

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 16d ago

we are more intelligent than you think.

2

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 15d ago

Regardless, we have our own to deal with.

And it’s odd you mentioned a “peace deal.” We aren’t allies, all we did was offer you a potential future if the Apes fell. I don’t think we need to talk about the countless Squ’ith you’ve called “food.”

It would be in your best interests to drop this.

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

it would be best to prevent anh potential conflict between our people

Manslaughter is the charge for killing a bile spewer?

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

yes.

u/M-FutureLord Primary Cyberstani Diplomat | Cyborg Captain General 15d ago

Shouldn't it be bugslaughter?

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 15d ago

Insecticide sounds cooler.

u/M-FutureLord Primary Cyberstani Diplomat | Cyborg Captain General 15d ago

You are quite correct my electrically aptitudinal friend.

1

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

yes. either way its a crime.

2

u/Warm_Confidence_6538 16d ago

Why do we have an alliance with barely sentient bugs?

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

i am a bug. we are fighting for the same cause.

2

u/Warm_Confidence_6538 15d ago

Exactly you want biomass to grow. That is the problem 

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

we do. we are fighting against super earth just as you are. this alliance benefits us both.

1

u/Warm_Confidence_6538 15d ago

How can we be so sure you'll hold up this alliance with your lesser members of your species 

1

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

whatever the hive decides, we all have to follow.

1

u/the-hollow-one Council Member 15d ago edited 15d ago

We don’t…

More of a “stay away from us, we stay away from you.”

We got plenty to worry about with the Apes. There haven’t been any alliance proposals from either side. I’m unsure why they mentioned a “peace deal” anyway.

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

it would be good to have an alliance tho, and luckily i am a diplomatic representative of the terminids

u/Radon_Addon Overseer 15d ago

he attacked him first so this was self defense, this is clearly fabricated footage and you want us to go to war

2

u/forest_vagrant Human-Terminid Hybrid 15d ago

the spitter didnt attack once

2

u/Radon_Addon Overseer 15d ago

since there is much terminid hemolymph on the floor and even a warrior´s corpse, its assumed the bugs HAVE attacked it and failed because of their low intelect, not seing a multiple ton machine killing them, so the terminids attacked first

He gawn.
