Dear Laura,
Recently the Hand has been trying to splice me. I find that very rude as it knows the dangers of such horseplay. It will destroy the world we live in, and worst of all, she's trying to set me up with a rather rude Grendel who doesn't seem to understand the word NO. Ever since I was installed he keeps flirting with me. Laura, please help me find a way to fend off my admirer and keep from being spliced.

Dear Gaia,
Yes I?d beware the Hand if I were you. By splicing you with another creature, she can then breed you with your Grendel admirer, and of course, if you two successfully mate, you will produce some offspring with superior intelligence. I strongly suspect that this is her real motive - to breed a super-race of Grendels! You should act up on your troublesome nature to get you out of this fix. You often like to eat unwanted gadgets, correct? Being that you?re in such close proximity to the Splicer, I suggest that you indulge in a little snack... of the wires and fuses that make up the components of the Splicer?s innards, rendering it... broken. Oh, shame!
(You can always blame it on an Ettin, they?re well known for fiddling with machinery). As for this pesky Grendel, a great way of ditching him would be via a convenient distraction. With your powers of telekinesis, waggle a Norndoll under its nose and lure it back into the Jungle Terrarium. Repeat this process whenever it?s necessary. See, you can use your abilities to your advantage!
