gollark: If you have anything good to trade, I happen to have one lying around.
gollark: There are various ways to breed leetles:kill TJ09 and take his place, then make it possible for you to breed leetlespay TJ09 and/or ask him nicely to make your leetles breedablemind-control TJ09hack into DC and make your leetles breedable/give yourself a bred leetle
gollark: Or at least under 5d.
gollark: The cave has *more* BSAs, and if you care about their lineages then go there, but the AP's are very low-time usually.
gollark: You should probably use the AP to get BSAs and not the cave.
