[snippet] YGO: Guard Dog Snippet

If we're gonna be doing just random short stuff, should really download the latest Black Cat anime episodes (OMG! Sven in DRAG! XD) and do ficcage for that. Or work on TGZ.
Unfortunately, the Voices are currently stuck on YGO. ~_~ Which sucks, because we can't find any of the early manga chapters scanlated for us to verify stuff with. >P

And since we won't be posting for a day or two, something to entertain y'all.

This snippet is actually something like 6 or 7 scenes down the road, but it jumped us while we had the 'puter and enough brain cells handy to make some sort of sense.

( We're not even sure if Pegasus is alive, but he's annoying, so here he is. )

Kea, Arthur's Pass, Hokitika

I'm sorry Ysabet. A Kea ate a hole in the red skirt you gave me. ^^;;

We went up to Arthur's Pass and found all these 'Please Do Not Feed the Kea' signs.
Really. Do not feed the Kea.
Kea are like a big parrot, who don't like to fly. They can, for short distances tho.
They're also equipped with heavy long pointy claws and beaks to deal Ice. Yes, Alpine Parrots.
With the Curiosity factor of a Ferret.
If you feed the Kea human food, A: They get really hyper off our fattier foods and B: now don't have to hunt for food.
Which means they have the time and energy to go out and get themselves into trouble.
Which they do.
So Please. Don't Feed the Kea.

They're also attracted to bright objects. One of them got distracted from eating the underside of a car (not kidding) by my skirt and proceeded to chew a hole in it. Photos to follow. (photos will be posted to LJ Pics, once we have the cable to upload them to the 'puter)
It then got bored with my skirt and went to eat the underside of -our- car. ~_~

From Arthur's Pass, we went to Hokitika and saw some romantically glowing pieces of shit.
More commonly known as Glow Worms.

Is very cool, you walk into this grotto (they're also famous for growing in caves) where the Glow Worm Larvae have made little sticky strands that hang down, kinda like icicles. The worms then light these strands up, making spots of glowing pale blue to attract other insects to eat. It looks like a star field. ^___^

Also went walking on the beach there. We've been on the East Coast of NZ, which means it's the Pacific Ocean. The water is all Blues and Teals (the official colours of Air New Zealand), surrounded by these bright Green cliffs and either bright white or black sand. And neat shells.
West Coast, you're now on the Tasman Sea. Which was bottle-green. In Hokitika, you also had darkish brown sand with TONS of drift wood all over it. And not much shell-life.
Was odd.
