No, when robots or monsters die they go POOF. When Mimigas or humans die they flicker and buzz out of existence. So there's also no mess to clean up there. Igor didn't flicker out of existence, so obviously he's not dead...
Wait, there's another thread for that.
Good point, then what's the red stuff on all the spikes? If they just poof or buzz out, they leave no trace of em, though, Booster only poofed out if you talked to him, and he was beyond close to death, but in the area he was in, how does he become healed enough to teleport out? It's not like he(Quote) has the hands of death.(Or does he...)

anyhow, I went a little bit off topic, and Igor did poof out, just after you went into Egg 00's room.

The red stuff on the spikes is the color of the spikes. This was determined on another thread.
As for Booster, he is not hurt as badly if you don't talk to him. Not BECAUSE you don't talk to him, though.

Or if you talk to him when he fall, he tells you what to do, loses his will to live and dies, but if you ignore him, he "fights" to survive and get back to Arthur's house to save his friends.

Cool story, bro.
Alright, seriously, that's a good explanation. Makes Booster seem kinda lazy about self-preservation, but w/e.
Oh man, this is off topic and I hardly noticed.
Now why don't the other two fires have charcoal in them? Only Santa does.

Because the other two fires weren't used to get rid of unwanted corpses. See? It all makes sense.

So not only is Santa a rapist, as we discussed earlier, he is now a serial killer and pyromaniac. I are afraid. Chaco are afraid.
And I just figured out why Grass"town" only has two residents now.

Oh, he's not a killer. It's just that people tend to die in his house a lot.

Riiight.
Do you think Chaco is telling herself that Santa is a scaredy-cat, so that she doesn't admit that she's terrified of him?

Every so often the stars line up and I have the right amount of cookies and something that I say makes sense. Don't count on it too often.

and then he nukes what ever is left of them.

NOTE TO SELF: the bomb has part of one of the former resident's arm in it...

Maybe "nuke" as in "microwave" would be a more reasonable thing to do... you know, it wouldn't destroy the island.

I don't recall a single tree in Cave Story, probably because trees don't grow underground.
Um, is the Mini-Nuke thing a Liero reference, or some other video game that I'm too noobish to know?

Not really. Though I was thinking of quote no. 1303 from The Canonical List of Famous Last Words.
CF beat me to asking that, lol. I was too newb to know about cave story until about a week ago (or 5 days, or something like that)

Still, who in there right mind doesn't take a gun into monster infested areas? He wanted to spread his evils of fire, lol.

Also, why doesn't Santa have a bed? Where does he sleep?
He has a bed, right above those spikes. Hope the floor is sturdy, or he will go to bed, and go poof during the night.

Maybe he has more Fireballs? (heh)
And he doesn't have a bed? Wait, doesn't Chaco have two of them? Nevermind.
