they found me

  they're outside

  i can hear them

  like even without using an invention or anything

  just with my ears

  turrets didn't attack them fortunately

  i mean they're set to definitely not attack humans

  because i am a human

  technically

  and i do not want turrets to attack me

  so

  let's all just be really quiet

  they were banging on the door before

  big solid door

  lovely big door

  stopped now

  think they're talking

  i'm using minicomputer to write this

  because bigcomputer has clacky keys

  v satisfying

  but also bad for giving away the fact that you are hiding

  pretending to not exist

  while you wait

  for people

  to leave

  you

  alone

  haven't finished teleportal nuisance remover yet

  haven't even made the cosy tea room

  okay

  nope they're still here

  think they're trying to get into ant prison now

  bad idea humans

  management is not responsible for injury or death resulting from unleashing captive ants

  not that i got many in there right now

  and those aren't in good condition

  still

  hope no one gets hurt

  just want them to gooooo awaaaaay

  maybe i could creep over to lair entrance

  teleportal behind vending machines

  snuggle in down there

  wonder what it's even like now

  haven't been down in like

  months?

  should probably check stuff first

  like if ventilation systems donked up sometime

  i could just teleport down into some kind of like

  deathcloud

  no

  i have grown beyond tiny safe underground lair

  i live above the earth now

  are they still there

  they are still there

  still there

  still there

  still flipping there oh come ON HUMANS JUST LEAVE ME ALONE

  YOU ARE MAKING ME USE CAPITAL LETTERS

  DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE THOSE

  okay wait

  waitwaitwait

  vehicle?

  combustion engine?

  leaving?

  question marks?

  okay

  okayokay

  they're gone

  oh thank goodness

  i mean they will be back

  humans cannot leave a thing alone

  this is a fact

  should maybe send some drones after them

  if i know where they live i can keep far away from that place

  and work on my lovely tea room teleportal device

  to avoid

  social complications

  hmm let's see though

  eyespiders or regular drones

  regular drones probably the safer bet there

  operational limits on eyespiders pretty low

  can't fit much battery inside an eye

  okay

  go drones

  follow those mammals

  i will be here

  doing teleports

  and

  designing tearooms
