Oh, right, the goo was in the cafeteria. I guess that might explain where the extra mass came from, and how it was able to maintain a balance of solids and liquids. It even has a drink in it's hand which I had somehow overlooked before. That still doesn't explain how it grew eyes and teeth though, and it must have one heck of a metabolism to break down it's food so quickly. I wonder if the kids already had lunch that day, or if they had a problem due to everything the goo consumed or left slime on. Not that you'd be able to tell what had been slimed in your average school cafeteria anyway

Getting away from paranoia for a second, can anybody tell for certain what the mural in the first panel says. It kinda looks like... it might be "Dark Shive". Out of curiosity Dan, (assuming you're bothering to read these threads) how long have you been using that particular name?
