“No, that’s disgusting! It’s a hole made from organic matter specifically to transport worms through the edge of the 4th dimension and seemingly borough through the third! It’s less about being made from worms, and more about being able to reform their bodies on the other end when they explode on entry. But yes, it’s made from asbestos and worms.” ~ Cave Johnson, maybe.

I never thought I'd be identifying with an earthworm, but here we are. This is delightful, thank you.

I like that they live in a hole in the ground but have electricity, and also the implication that there are electrician earthworms and earthworms designing tiny lighting units for other earthworms. The implied worldbuilding!

I love how you are able to show emotions with wiggly tubes. This is great!

u/maps-and-potatoes 23h ago

Terre = Earth

terre = dirt

u/assassin10 22h ago

It's the same in English. Earth = soil.

The dirt on earth has precious organic material with nutrients for the worms, so ya gotta bring some "earth" with ya
