Seaman: Day Twenty-One

Today should be very exciting, I’m hoping to see the eggs that Poseidon laid hatch and am looking forward to meeting them.

The first thing I notice is the terrible slowdown, the game chugs as I move my cursor around. It was like this yesterday after Poseidon laid the eggs but I thought nothing of it then, I was too enamored with what had just taken place. I crank the temp up to 20 in the eggs terrarium and I spray down the insect terrarium. The little embryos are moving around in their eggs, as I watch I listen to the sound of the water washing up against the land, similar to the sounds of the ocean.

Then without any warning, they all jump out of the eggs and into the water! They begin swimming around and one comes up to the side of the tank and begins to talk with me. He shares the same voice and sense of humor as I Seamen I’ve been watching all along. The creatures look identical to tadpoles, minus the human face. It’s almost a letdown talking to them; they act just the same as their predecessors, however it is fun to tap the glass and watch all six come racing to me.

These are interesting times in the laboratory.
