The mimic won't say anything, so Doomcop tries to take the key. It won't let go so he just puts it on his head.


: Didn't that thing just try to eat you? Why are you putting it on your head?

: No, it didn't. The man-eating chest tried to eat me. These little guys are nearly defenseless carnivores due to some bad evolutionary joke, so they hide in those sentient chests to get food. In return, the chest sucks their life energy away. It's some sort of horrifying symbiosis. Besides, the chests only eat people, I was in no danger of becoming someone's lunch.
