My wife decided to plant a meta alloy and this is what happened.

[Jack Winter]

I was away on a long trip out in the black, and I brought a meta alloy as a gift for my wife. She decided to plant it and this is what happened.

It makes me wonder about what barnacles and meta alloys really are.. Maybe part of the Thargoid reproduction cycle? Possibly what we witness at barnacles isn't what we thought it was? If it keeps growing and starts shooting lightning I'm going to get quite concerned!

gives harvesting meta alloys a whole new spin.
are we the bad guys

Dude, that isn't alloy - it's an artichoke.

Dude, that isn't alloy - it's an artichoke.

Actually that's not an artichoke - it's sempervivum.

Actually that's not an artichoke - it's sempervivum.

Oh so now it's OK to insult me?

I like artichoke, especially on pizza. That particular artichoke, I know it - I think the leaves are stiff and feel a bit leathery and rubbery.

When you blast it, how many hearts does it have? Does it release Thargon swarms?

[...] and feel a bit leathery and rubbery.

These are eggs.

 

[Navigare Necesse Est]

These are eggs.

It's an eggplant?!

 

[Leadfoot]

These are eggs.

It's an eggplant?!

So you plant eggs in them and they grow more eggs? Or do they grow more plants?
Do you stick your face in front of it?
I'm confused.

I haven't tried yet, I wanted to give it a few plasma blasts but my wife threatened divorce..

I think it's a lovely green.

OK, admit it, you knew it beforehand. I saw the screenshot and it is the same lovely green.
