What they say

  • Chicken Bones? Why are you asking, do you need any?
  • Up there? Heard it's pretty wet. Don't want my bones getting soggy and mushy...
  • The surface is overabundant with destructive weather. Singed bones would be bad for my complexion!
  • The world above is turbulent and chaotic. I like my bones to stay attached, as it were!
  • As much as you would think I'd belong here, I really don't.
  • How did I get here!? These are not my friends!
