 You're fighting a swarm of scarab beatles

These bugs clearly neither want to hold your hand or be your man. They skitter along helter-skelter, looking for a chance to make you twist and shout. You feel like you should run for your life, or at least get some help.

Hit Message(s):

They gnaw on your <kidney>. How could they gnaw on another, when they saw you standing there? Oof! Ouch! Ugh! Ouch!

They gnaw through you skin until your inside is out and your outside is in. Eek! Ow! Eek! Eek!

You tell the beatles that you love them, but that only causes them to chew on you more. You should hide that stuff away, man. Ouch! Argh! Argh! Argh!

Critical Hit Message:

not known

Miss Message(s):

They try to pull out your internal organs, but you keep your inside in and your outside out.

You remember that beatles are attracted to love, so you hide your love away.

They try to gnaw on your <kidney>, but you dodge so your life goes on, bra.

They try to claw you, but your hands are busy working overtime, brushing them away.

Fumble Message:

They rise into the air and swarm toward you, intent on picking your flesh from your bones, but a female scarab beatle arrives and starts making an unholy screeching noise. One of the beatles seems to like it, but the rest fly away. (FUMBLE!)
