Pitou Blythe 9/4 near Recolle

A.) Anyone got recommendations on where a creep could get some carrion beetles? I have some bones that need cleaning and after doing my due diligence, this seems to be the best way to clean out all those nooks and crannies. Money is no object :3 B.) You can find ANYTHING on youtube! Anyone want to lend me some power tools while I work on my bone sword? C.) Maybe some leather for the hilt too, hmmmm?

[What the hell Pitou. Mohammed doesn't know how to respond to that. It's one thing to bring up a counterargument, but another to reference bodily harm to a baby when he doesn't know if they are talking from experience or just being morbid.]

Of course I haven't.
It's despicable.

[playdolls]

Don't be ridiculous, it happens all the time. You don't have to *throw* them down the stairs, they can fall all on their own.

[prometheanflame]

Have you seen it happen so often??

[playdolls]

This problem is literally what baby gates are for????

[prometheanflame]

What about *literally looking after your children*

[playdolls]

[ Now pitou's just laughing. ]

Children are basically animals, whatever.

[prometheanflame]

We aren't animals that would leave babies alone to hurt themselves!!

[playdolls]

You're really upset about this hypothetical baby.

[prometheanflame]

I'm upset that you could talk about a baby injuring itself like it's some object that fell down the stairs.

Of course I'd be upset when horrible things happen to children!

The whole point was that they're not as likely to be injured as you think they are.

Their bones are literally more flexible, and they don't have the mass that an adult has, so their force when tumbling is significantly less.

I bet I can google a statistic, just a second--

[playdolls]

"Only 6 children (1%) sustained proximal limb fractures. There were no rib fracture. There were no deaths or severe injuries such as cerebral hemorrhages/tears, visceral trauma or spinal fractures.

Conclusions: Severe injuries and death do not occur as a result of falls down stairs. The pattern of injury is peripheral with sparing of the trunk. Multiple injuries are rare."

[He is horrified. Simply horrified.]

Even so, I'm not eager to leave a baby alone and shrug it off when it falls. Especially down the stairs.

[playdolls]

You'll make a wonderful father. Who's the lucky broodmare?

[prometheanflame]

"Broodmare"?

[playdolls]

The pregnant one. Who'd you knock up?

[prometheanflame]

Even if that were true, that's no way to refer to a person.

A human is not a "thing" that causes no concern when it falls down the stairs.
