That would be kinda included. Maybe just a prehensile grabber for now, that we can modify into a jaw later?

+1. Because Competition showed us that it is a good idea to be floating balls of flammable material :P.

Maybe, then, it would be a good idea to enter symbiosis with a plant species? We take some of the material from what passes for photosynthesis, they are kept safe within our jellified interior. Sorta like that jellyfish species that did something very similar with microbes...I forget its name.

There is a massive magma snake moving in down stairs as well as a flood and a tunnel to hell also downstairs and you are worried about me putting my feet on the furniture.
GWG you are meant to be the sane one.
Just because the apocalypse is happening downstairs is no reason to abandon manners young wizard.
