Hashmal

This is a birthday gift for .

I think this needs explanation. Somewhere, in a series of comments Irate and I threw around, a hypothetical where Hashmal, Irate's tanklike Draon who sometimes eats humans and could shred my crew in one blow, ended up on the Ascension as a passenger. We kept going at it until the crew was all living in the aquatic section, or hiding as close to it as possible, to avoid some unpleasant encounters. This is the early part of that. It also partly hinges on Phena's pnigophobia, which could probably be cured if someone forced her to stay in the water for a week, but that's neither here nor there.

Hashmal is fun to draw, it turns out. I wasn't sure which armor to use, so I tried to amalgamate them. I like the look, hope Irate does.

I cannot find the original conversation, which saddens me, but from what references I did find I think it took place in October or November. Wow. Some things never get out of my head. _{Like jokes that involve Farrell getting eaten, and the innuendo I almost always make immediately after about seemingly everyone wanting to eat him, durr.}

Happy birthday, Irate! I hope I'm not the only one who finds this amusing.
