Challenge #00680 - A315: Putting the Om in Omnivore
T’reka and some of the weirder things humans eat….
Of course putting a settlement into otherwise pristine land was bound to cause some ecological imbalance. The absence of so very many trees meant an upswing in homeless insects. Some of whom took the deforestation as a cue to breed.
The insects fed the birds and amphibians, who took the excess food as a cue to breed.

[AN: I have not met any other kinds of pelicans, so I just assumed they were all like that. And for the record, they prefer fish.]
Irwin glared at the current batch of temporal tourists. Another

Challenge #00677 - A312: Loud Shy
They had never expected to be able to describe someone speaking as booming hesitantly, but that’s exactly what it sounded like.
The Ambassador for Gargantua was large, even for large cogniscents. He could easily intimidate a terran bear. He was all muscle and looked like he could conquer the universe.
And he was about to make his introductory speech.
“Er…” he boomed. “My name… is… Um. Grigri. Yes. Uh. I… was… an asteroid
