Zwitter Forward

Just as I was about to give double-flip my spin and confuse the current One that was glombed onto the ornery Eight when my attitude got changed. Torqued forward and sideways, the other central Six and it's Seven had broken free of their slippery sliding and had borrowed another One from the soup. This explains why the One broke away before I finished the double-flip and refused to re-connect afterward.

One-Eight-Ones nuzzled their semi-positive Ones along the sympathetic polarity of the ornery Eights. Slipping around the central Six and surveying the Seven end of this Shorty found the inverse situation with the trio of Ones that were sliding around the Seven in an oddly backward motion. Attracted to the semi-negative Eights of the intervening One-Eight-Ones, the Shorty had switched modes from mesh crawler to soup slipper.

It was no simple task to hang out on the Seven, since one of the three Ones was always missing it's Electron. The ornery Eights at the other end were playing catch with an extra Electron, and this created a stressed bond between the Seven and the central Six. The Seven and it's positive trio of Ones were constantly pulled toward the Electron ping-pong match going on between the Eights.
