    As for what we should do:
    I say we should ask why it feels the need to play such music and disturb the peace of the forest. But politely.

    Jay Tuner should be asked about his need/desire to play the sounds he plays.

    Memento Mori refers to a genre of artworks that vary widely but which all share the same purpose: to remind people of their mortality, an artistic theme dating back to antiquity.
    I honestly figured more people would have understood the dj's hint about what he's up to. I guess I was wrong. So here's something a little more concrete.

    New somewhat larger comic, somewhat longer text - Ask the Dj about the music again.

    Spoiler
    Show

    After not understanding the meaning of the Dj's first answer, you ask him again. As always, his only response is silence. This time however, he stops his music completely..

    The fog around you starts thickening, eyes and silhouettes of unknown creatures make themselves seen along the edge of the clearing and you can't help but feel watched as you start shaking, not out of fear but rather due to the grave beneath you starting to rumble ever so slightly.

    The dead boot-monster underneath you produces a blood curdling shriek as it's shadowed hand bursts out of the rotted earth reaching for the surface above! The Dj takes the cry as his cue, and immediately begins playing his next song. The hand withers and begins to sink back ever so slowly into the shallow, feted earth below as if the creature was dying all over again.

    Almost instantly, the heavy fog dissipates and the creatures of the forest seem to have lost interest in watching you. However, you are absolutely terrified by what you just witnessed and book it back to the shadow Dj. Unsure if you should be grateful for his "answer".

    You vow never to go near the gravestones again.

    I vote for continuing onwards down the path and exploring the forest some more. I suspect that if ant-boy wants to get back in contact with us, location won't matter too much.

    And besides, we only have two things that we've interacted with yet. Do we really want to be reducing that number already without being pushed in that direction?

    I recommend finding booze... whatever booze means for oozes.

    And when I think Slime, this is what comes to mind. (Probably for others, as well.)

    That looks like an insect pincer on the psudopod, but I don't know of any pink bugs right off hand. Does this mean future potential for fusings?

    Clearly, we must experiment! Onward, to places with lots to eat!

    You're all looking too deep into this. It's just a pink version of the Ooze I drew to go with the name Soozey. Not like.. an actual choice I'm giving you lot.

    Though I'm not saying it wouldn't be impossible if you guys really wanted our hero to look like that. We'd just have to find some stuff to eat to achieve it first. After all, transforming and growing is supposed to be a big theme in the comic.

    Sorry for the long delay, I put extra effort into this one to make up.

    You make up your mind to be brave, leave the clearing and to delve deeper into the darkness around you. As you leave you notice the DJ flashing you some form of boot-monster hand gesture. You give him a quick nod of understanding and dive into the thorny underbrush ahead.


    You continue boldly onwards, the Dj's song fading away along with your daylight with every hop forwards. After going further into the forest for a good while, the crimson red light of the evening sun slowly dissipates and is replaced by cold moonlight.

    Suddenly, you hear the faint rustling of the tall grasses to your side -

    Well, this isn't good. We're distinctly lacking in offensive capabilities at the moment and the jaws on that thing look like they could eat a small, tasty ooze in one bite.

    Discretion is the better part of valor here, people. I suggest running or otherwise evading it.

    Well, we're an Ooze. I'm sure if we split, we can avoid the terrible fate. Not to mention, maybe best it, eat it, and gain offensive capabilities.

    New comic - Run away like a little girl

    Spoiler
    Show


    You once again decide running away is your best plan of action, you jump into the darkness away from the strange creature without a second thought. However, your tempo is no match to the flying whisp's own speed and it quickly intercepts you.


    The whisp takes another deep breathe, it's mouth glows brighter and brighter, illuminating the murky air around it. It let's loose and the odd blue flames sling through the dark! The moist grass around you catches fire.


    You're standing in a small clearing filled with short grass. You're surrounded on all sides by the strange fire. It seems the creature has created an arena of sorts.

    You're uncertain whether it was smart enough to do this on purpose, or if it's just an unlucky coincidence.

    The whisp is hovering in front of you, staring you down..
