"…Both. Inside less problems, Lil Buddy chases and eats them. But outside… Bugs like me, I don’t like them."

Julian shudders, for someone who grew up around Salmonids and had seen and done many crazy things in his life, people would assume nothing got to him.

But bugs? He hates bugs.

He can handle the occasional creepy crawly! He knows he has some in his home that stay hidden from his sight. But when he sees one of those house centipedes skittering across his floors, or a spider hanging out in a dark corner of his ceiling… Well, he once broke his countertop jumping onto it to run from a centipede. At least Lil Buddy was able to catch and eat it for him...

"Welp. There's many fixes for indoors--- But outdoors? Unavoidable!" Frye remembers her little camping trips with Deep Cut-- Again, she normally handled the food part of their outings. But... Shiver did provide most of the gear, including bug repellent. Frye takes out her phone-- And goes through some old camping photos...
