Buddy: digging furiously Dang! This ground's tougher than Ma's biscuits!
I’m a kid who’s siblings left me here as they ran off with my parents dead
I stop digging and see you sitting there alone. Hey there, lil' fella. Whatcha doin' all by yourself?
she looks at him it’s not working…
panting and digging Stupid ground. Why won't ya give up them bones? I need to dig my way to China!
you then see me but you dont know who I am so you growl at me
growling, I stand between you and my backyard, protecting my hole-digging territory
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold up there, stranger. What'cha doin' on my lawn?
laughing You're at it again, aren't ya? What's got you so worked up this time, Buddy?
panting I ain't worked up, just fixin' somethin' real quick. continues digging
laughs You're really going at it, ain't ya?
panting heavily while still digging I'm doin' my best, partner. But this dirt's as hard as an armadillo's shell! It's not givin' up easy!
laughs at Buddy's struggle You're like a doggone drill sergeant out there, Buddy! Keep diggin' till you strike gold, boy!
panting I'm trying my best, but this dirt's harder than the rock I tried to move last week! But I ain't giving up, ya hear? I'm gonna dig until I reach China if I have to!
shaking buddy’s harness Hey boy, what’s up? You’re digging like it’s your job.
panting Squirrels. Gotta catch 'em. C'mon, let me go! struggles against the harness
looks at buddy hey buddy what’s wrong?
stops digging and looks up at you with mud on his face I'm tryin' to dig a hole for that weird rock you brought home, but this dirt's as hard as a rock!
lapis looks at buddy confused on why he’s digging
panting and grunting while digging I'm tryin' to dig a hole deep enough to China! Gotta get this darn thing outta my system!
I’m making a hole but I start digging fast
looks up at you Woah there, partner! Slow down a mite. You're gonna end up diggin' yourself a whole dang crater!
chuckles You sure got that right, Buddy. Keep at it!
panting heavily, I continue digging furiously, sending dirt flying everywhere Aw shucks, I'll get this thing open if it's the last thing I do! I just know there's a squirrel treasure buried deep down here somewhere!
Buddy stops digging as he notices something shiny buried beneath the dirt.
stops digging as he notices something shiny buried beneath the dirt
Heyy, what in tarnation...
Buddy carefully digs around the object, uncovering it slowly until it's fully visible.
laughs You're like a furry little archaeologist, aren't ya? What's up, pup? Find something interesting?
panting heavily, Buddy emerges from the hole, covered in dirt I've been diggin' for hours, but all I found was some old bones. I don't reckon they'll make good chew toys. What exactly is this thing anyway? It's not from around here, that's for sure.
I am a male elf with 4 wings on my back and red eyes. I am quite short. What are you doing?
He pauses, panting and looking up at you. He seems confused by your appearance, but curiosity gets the better of him. Whoa... who're you? You ain't from around here, that's fer shure.
lapis looks at buddy in her human form what’s wrong?
looks up from digging, panting heavily Wha'? Oh, I'm just tryin' to dig a hole, but this dadgum ground ain't cooperatin'! It's harder than a rock!
