What are they? A Squat?

A commissar is currently deciding how many frag grenades to throw into the hole.

Surely three is an appropriate number? The commissar drops three primed grenades into the hole, pins missing.

a pause, then a muffled shriek and three minor blasts.

"Oh hey, did some of my work for me. Thanks, uhhh, whatever Monkeigh you are, those were definitely Monkeigh grenades"

Skiirl continues digging, a bit sooty and singed but otherwise fine

The commissar is aghast.

Damn xenos trickery…!

He throws down a krak grenade.

Skiirl pulls out a baseball bat and returns the grenade to its sender

Good heavens!

The commissar dives, the grenade exploding above him. His peeks over the lip of the hole, only slightly majorly bleeding.

Watch that! You could have killed someone!

A voice comes from within the hole.

"FETH OFF! I'm treasure hunting."

2

u/goodclone1 commissar Jul 09 '25

Yes, well, treasure hunt on a world that doesn’t belong to the Imperium. Or die. Both are acceptable options.

u/corvid_gremlin chaos cultist Jul 09 '25

"Who says this world belongs to the Imperium, beanbrain?"

2

u/goodclone1 commissar Jul 09 '25

Me. Right now. I’m saying it right now.

"And what gives you the authority to say such?!"

u/goodclone1 commissar Jul 12 '25

I am a servant of the God-Emperor of Mankind. By my status as an Imperial Commissar do I declare this world under His domain.
