"If you don't mind my asking, what sort of groups are there in the Basement besides your own? We don't need to discuss their heirarchal status if it's sensitive." Squishington remained silent as his mate spoke, but he seemed mildly interested at the topic of conversation.
Baby giggled loudly, wiggling furiously into the sand. "I'm a builds biggerest hole of all, an' fin' a dyna-surrrs!" He began digging seriously, tossing sand about enthusiastically.
"Lady, why don't you go make sure Baby doesn't throw sand in anyone's eyes."
"Why don't you," huffed Lady, finally losing her patience. "Baby alone is enough for me to handle. You can watch over all the little ones and keep them out of trouble." Squishington puffed himself up and growled deeply. Lady ignored him, smiling at Caz and Griever apologetically. "You'll have to excuse him. He gets sulky sometimes and doesn't like me talking to strange Slimes." She snorted derisively, then sighed as she watched her mate deflate and squish over to the sandbox to watch the children.

Caz and Griever both watched Lord Squishington squish over to the sandbox, where a little, bright green slimeh had joined the party of baby slimehs digging at an alarming pace. Caz was the first one to smile again, as always. "That's quite understandable, Lady Squishington. I can see that Lord Squishington cares about his family very much."
Griever absently nodded his assent and answered Lady Squishington's earlier question. "We have a small but diverse set of groups in The Basement. Caz here, as well as my mate, is from the group of coffee slimehs, while I'm from the group of summon slimehs. We also have a group of alcohol slimehs and Lord of the Rings slimehs. Our children are among the first individuals to be in the gem slimehs." Griever paused, choosing his words carefully. "Each group has its own fascinating and distinguishing characteristics."
Back at the sandbox, Garnet paused his digging for a moment to blink at the huge, gray slimeh who approached. Then he resumed digging. "I'ma find..." what would he find? he wondered. Then he remembered something his Uncle Ifrit mentioned quite a few times, often in relation to card games and betting. "Goldehs!"
Meanwhile, Kunzite blinked at the small, bright green slimeh who slipped in the hole she just dug. It was disconcerting having to interact with Baby Squishington, and it was even moreso with this new baby slimeh so close in proximity to her. "I'ma dig the biggest, bestest tunnel ever!" she responded.

"Dyna-surrs is betterest... er... est... uhm... Dyna-surrs is bigger'n eve'thin', an' I'm-a be famous'd!" Baby wiggled down into the bottom of his little pit. Glancing at the walls, he began bumping them down and then scooping the sand out of the pit, flinging it recklessly. Squishington muttered a warning half-heartedly, his gaze flicking randomly to the Basement baby Slimes.
Lady nodded, smiling. "I see. So, there are fanSlimes in the Basement. There are several sets of fanSlimes in the basement, too. A set of seven, named after characters from the Naruto series. And a set of Rainbow Brite Slimes, ten, named after characters from an old cartoon show. Cassi also plans to order dozens more fanSlime and original sets, including Summon and beverage Slimes." She nodded to both of them, smiling.

Griever thought for a moment, thinking back to their human. "Our human is quite excited about the concept of slimehs also. A good friend of mine once swore that he caught her staring at him for a long time, with a glazed expression. He was quite convinced that she was infatuated with him. It took me and my mate a while to convince him that most likely she was fascinated by his slimeh-ness than by who he is." And boy, was Ifrit let down at that rational explanation. "Sometimes, I do wonder what it will be like to collect humans instead of the other way around. They seem to be fascinating creatures as well."
Caz was slightly disconcerted at the proprietary way that Griever referred to Kahlua. But he concealed his discomfort the best he could and instead paid attention to what Griever said. "It would be quite a bother, to collect humans. Imagine how big their habitats would be."
Kunzite would have responded something to Baby Squishington, but whatever she would have said will never be known. She got distracted by Lord Squishington. She blinked up at the huge, gray slimeh and wiggled slightly, partly from trying to get sand out of her face and partly because he seemed much bigger up close. She blinked again and uttered, "D-di-dino-rrs?"
"Di-no-saurs!" said Garnet excitedly, bouncing up and down. "Dinosaurs! Dinosaurs! Dinosaurs!"
Kunzite bounced up and down in frustration. "Dinorrs!"

"Hm, collecting humans does seem like it would be interesting. But they come in such a limited range of colors! I've never seen a green human, or a blue one. And their environments are so complex! But I do agree, they're amazing creatures. All those limbs, to do different things with." Lady wiggled thoughtfully, blinking somewhat, then smiled. "But I think I like things the way they are, with only a few humans tending to a lot of Slimes."
Squishington nodded at Garnet approvingly. "That's right," he said, "dinosaurs." He turned back to Kunzite, enunciating the word again, slower this time. "Di. No. Saurs."
Baby muttered to himself darkly, deflating back to his normal size. It was hard to stay puffed up like that! How did his daddy manage to do it so often? He decided that his daddy must have to be very strong to stay puffed up so much. And digging was probably a great way to get stronger!

Baby muttered darkly to himself as he began moving in a circle, widening his pit so it wouldn't collapse on himself. He paused as he hit something hard in the sand. Brushing dirt away, he was pleased to find something round and shiny and copper-colored. He edged up out of his pit, glancing suspiciously towards Garnet and Kunzite.
Good, they hadn't noticed that he'd found something.
Hopping back into the hole, he began digging out his prize.
"Yes, the presence of limbs would be a great benefit. Some of the more fluid Slimes in the Greenhouse are able to extend small portions of themselves, but we're all still far from developing actual limbs. However, this form is also quite beneficial. The lack of limbs means that a bone structure is unnecessary, making us more flexible." To demonstrate her point, she puffed herself up slightly, then deflated and flattened. Regaining her proper shape, she nodded.
