Gnewal Gwevus Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Planet: F03 Job: Special forces "Surprise!" cheered his fellow special forces comrades in unison as Private Gnarl Graves stepped out of the MANTIS barracks on Foring. He stumbled out only to find his pals had hastily set up a picnic, complete with a cake to celebrate his birthday! Black chocolate cake, with larvae, it looked like. Graves' favorite. "Happy Birthday!" Doe cheered. She was a tough ladette with scuff-marks on her chin and short auburn hair. "Oh shit!" Exclaimed Graves. The man was rarely surprised, considering his line of work, but he truly hadn't suspected this. "Where'd you even get this stuff?" "We've been saving up. Not every year you turn... How old are you again?" chuckled Grave's closest mate, Raynes. "A gentlemen never tells." Graves replied, wryly. A smug smile spreading beneath his blacked-out visor. Graves surveyed the scene laid out before him. Cake, guns, and dates or something. The best celebration he'd had at MANTIS. https://c8.staticflickr.com/8/7569/28376528495_47dd97d12a.jpg "What are these? Dates?" Graves queried, gesturing to the purplish wrinkled dried fruits. "Figs!" shot Doe. Well put a fig on my plate!" laughed Private Graves. "I've got you a present," Raynes announced. "A new sword. Yours is beat-up as hell." "But I like my beat-up sword." Graves replied. "Well, let's see who's sword is better in a battle!?" Challenged Raynes. "You're on." An epic sword duel ensued. Not the build i planned for this week, but unlike my brother i don't live with my Lego collection. anyways, i hope you enjoy. And, happy birthday to me. :p Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Always good to see you building again. The cake is really nice. The fig on a plate reference is funny, and the characters are interesting! Nice work! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
