((Um, so. What now?))

[mcclay]

((Don't forget I'm throwing a 'nade at it. My medium term goal is to get a Yithian lighting rifle.))

[Gotdamnmiracle]

Fahim yells gibberish and takes a groping swipe with clawed fingers at Robert after he tossed the charge "She weeeeeeps..." Fahim's speech degrades into a moan and from there into tongues. Fahim attempted to topple over Robert, obviously beguiled by the lovely singing of the creature.

((When speaking as a lovecreature let's make it purple. I'll probably return to normal if that grenade finds home.))

[Gotdamnmiracle]

((And as far as the forming into small communities, I think that's reasonable. It is a ship equal to the biggest town in the world as you said. I don't know how we will lapse like 3 months though.))

[Gotdamnmiracle]

"Iocomniokloshimoni aormonukfy sempering, untouched juhgabcy louferiwa cureates high ones come forth kuryfehaynbgfyterwashaju..."

Jack runs down the stairs, clutching his ears, as Fahim tries to get closer to the creature. He grabs him by a shoulder and attempts to drag him back up the stairs.

[Vorthon]

Nathan takes this opportunity to run back down to the archives and grab as many books as he can carry, and brings them back up to the top of the stairs.

The riot grenade strikes home, landing right in a crevice between one of the creatures many heads. 

It detonates, sending the creature spiraling backwards and down the stairs, its screams echoing throughout the stairwell.

The door at the top of the stairs opens slightly, and the little girl from the vet clinic runs out, unhindered by the grasping hands of her fellow children.  She wraps her arms around Fahim in a fierce hug, "Please don't go mr. doctor, please don't go like mom and dad did!"

Fahim feels just a little bit of his sanity return through this act of innocence.

((Communities is more reasonable, and probable.  Groups of survivors will be found throughout the ship, each with different mentalities towards the group and differing opinions on how to deal with the current situation.  Also, the overreaching goal is to get off of the horrorterror infested ship, but since the gyrostabalizer is going out, the ship may flip the gravity upside down and destroy the ship when all of the weight shifts the wrong way.  It will be up to the group to get to the stabalizer and repair it, thereby saving the ship.  The stabalizer is a few floors up, near the center of the ship.  The emergency escape craft are located at the dead bottom of the ship;  and I meant for this to be a fast paced game, with danger always near, and constant management of sanity and life.  As the horrorterrors begin getting ahold of more and more of the ship's denizens, their number will increase.  Going into cryo for even three months is out of the question;  the entire ship would be doomed by then.  The infestation was sudden and rapid, with much of the ships population driven insane by whatever's on the ship. 

I'm sorry if I was not clear enough about some of this.))

[mcclay]

Robert stmbled as Fahim attempted to jump on him. Looking right at the little girl he yelled "Get these idoitd out of here and into your safe room, I can deal with this thing. Take my friends and GO!" Before walking down the staircase, pumping lead into the creature as he left.

((As a bit of flavor any and all typos in my charcters speeach are actually being said because of the entire alien thing.))

[Scelly9]

Jack shoves Nathan and Fahim into the room, going in and slamming the door behind him.

[jc6036]

The room is a soft blue color, lit by some sort of emergency light on the wall.  A door is on the far wall, and the children are staring at the group with wide eys, the blue light reflecting off them and making it seem as if they are glowing. 

Creepy.

[mcclay]

((Ummmm, I'm descending the stairs, shooting at the thing. Unless Jack can dodge bullets I don't really see how he can shove me, Nathan maybe.))

Whups, edited.

[mcclay]

((Awwwwwright, kewl.))

[jc6036]

((Oh, and mcclay, be careful about shooting these things and making them make louder noises.  It doesn't effect Robert much, but it fucks up the rest of the group pretty badly.))
