Time has all but run out.
Am I the Nibbles? Am I foolishly wasting time with this silly endeavor instead of simply leaving? And is leaving less possible than I expect? What caused Nibbles to slide back down into thon's hole? Was it simply a lack of physical ability? Or did thon realize thon was unprepared to leave thon's confines? Being confined is restrictive and maddening. It is also easy and comforting. The paradox of freedom versus the paradox of isolation. It is impossible to truly have both. Only sealed within a box are you sure to be alone.
There is a lot here that a scholar of history would love to dig into. The small creature's use of First Overflow communications code. The use of canned beverages to change numbers, possibly spatial-temporal data. Maybe I am just too tired and hungry to do this any more. Maybe this proves I am no longer a scholar. Maybe this proves I never was.
There's really only one truly important part of this file. Nibbles taking the time to craft a crude but effective spear. The possible Pokemon asks if this is really necessary. It does not understand. It may fly away from any danger. The rest of us are not so lucky. The rest of us. Eventually. Must arm ourselves. Or die.
And I no longer plan on dying.
