Where Is My Mind [O]

"Ach. 'm sure thae' if we let 'em pass 'troo freely an' stuff from our territorehs while shovin' 'em we're nae blasted stoopid animal's jaes' stealin' from 'em, they shoul' let us b'. Imagine thae!" He laughed for a while as he was slowly making his way to the inner parts of the hill. "An' 't coul' easily expand int' a more expansiv' thin', ay'? Make it hooman's an' taguel." He frowned a bit as he poked his head out of the little hole, shaking some dirt from his head and paws and seemingly sneezing. He sniffed loudly.

"Thae' coul' fix even moar' o' our races problems, ay'? We're a dyin' race, lov'. Sur', we coul' try an' breed normalleh. Or try tae breed with 'em hoomans. A' heard 'em crossbreeds still mostly have 'em taguel features. Fancy thae', ou' race woul' be back up in a few generations, eh?" The taguel must live, that was the one main thing Pepe had decided on during his life. Even if he himself would never spawn any children, he would ensure that his race lived on and would thrive.

"Bu' thae's jus' ol' me bein' senile, heh." He laughed for a moment as he then returned to digging, now digging upwards from the insides of the hill, kicking away dirt from time to time as he slowly expanded the space inside the hill.

Chou had formed a small hole near Pepe's, and would continue until she dug a small tunnel right through his. From there, they could focus on tunneling and expanding their combined efforts. If by chance they made things too big, though, it would not be too much trouble to pack some of the dirt down into a sturdy wall. "Human and taguel living together?" Her voice was slightly muffled by the clump of dirt pressing against the side of her face. She had done something like that growing up, though she could never truly be herself outside of her home.

She almost bumped her head on the roof of her small hole when Pepe mentioned breeding. Interracial breeding did not bother her, but breeding itself was…ugh. So awkward and definitely not something she wanted to casually talk about. If it wasn't for all of the fur currently on her face, Chou would be visibly blushing. She lowered her body down until her belly was firmly resting on the ground, and tried to cover her head with her paws. "Breeding like rabbits…" The hole echoed with Chou's nervous laughter. Repopulation was way too much responsibility for her to handle.

"Er, yeah. Can we not?" How long had Pepe been on his own? Perhaps he had already lost a bit of his sanity. Humans and taguel living together? It really seemed unlikely to her. While they were a lot better off nowadays, there was still a good deal of friction between the two races. Or maybe she was just being unnecessarily pessimistic. There were some good humans out there, like the man who had raised her like his own. "Maybe it's not so farfetched after all…"

Her little hole soon became big enough to accommodate all of her, bar the little fluff that was her tail. Chou began twisting her digging until she poked her head into a space just in front of Pepe, and backed up so that she could knock the collected dirt outside. Once the tunnel was clean, she climbed back up and dug into the opposite wall, intending to widen it out into what would be her living space. She was forced a few times to stop and gnaw through what looked like tree roots, but those were the only obstacles to get in her way.

"Ach, I dinnae mean t' make things uncomfortable, ay'? Jus' me bein' th' hopeful ol' man nae realizin' people dunnae always like th' mention of breedin'." He nodded once in an apologetic manner. He had been rather rude by pulling the subject out into the open like that. He decided to stay quiet for a while as he returned digging, trying his best to avoid the tunnels Chou had made so that he would be maxing out all his work output. This continue on for about a hour or so, give or take, before he finally popped himself out of the hill with a huff.

"I think thae dunnit, but ammae nae sure." He coughed a bit, wiping some more dirt away from his body as he then got encased in a cocoon, bursting out from it soon after in his human form. He did not bother fixing his taguel forms inside his clothing for now, which was rather rare. His bushy skunk tail stuck out, it's height reaching slightly over his head as his little black ears stuck out like a sore thumb on the otherwise very burly looking figure.

"How do' 'et look from thae inside, hm? Comfy? Need mor' work, er?"
