"Wait, Grate? What happened to him?"

[Radio Controlled]

Xan, despite himself, is cowed. The synthflesh giant had great power in him, perhaps more than he could reach at the time being.
An obstacle.
Even though he wondered why Jim didn't obliterate Stacy, he was happy to leave the thing alone. He needed to recover. Now it was just a matter of eating the dead gu-

Who the hell took the corpse?! I need that thing!

Whoever has the dead people, come over to my location and let me have the bodies. Keep whatever's on them, but I need flesh.

Meet me in the hangar and ill give you spearface, the other ones not quite a lost cause yet.

head back to the sword with Jack and Michael's bodies slung over each shoulder.
Carry both corpses over to my loot crate and stash all Michael's gear before abandoning his corpse to the ravenous raisin monster and carrying jack off to the infirmary.

Turning his radio to full, still on the adrenaline rush from the battle, Miyamoto struggeled not to start screaming at his temmates.

I swear to god, if you disgrace those bodies, I cannot say what I'll do next, but it won't be pretty. Those people just gave their lives fighting for our cause, and I won't let you disgrace their corpse to feed whatever sick need makes you do this. If you need corpses that badly, just go to that command building, there are dozens of sods there in various states of dismemberment you can use.

Oh, and Auron, whatever those people had on them in terms of valuables will get split evenly among the team afterwards. 

He turned to Jim, thought of a way to console his friend. He had no idea what to say.

Hey, Jim, I... I'm sorry for your loss man. Just... just take however much time you need, me and Milno will wrap things up here.

Oh, and talk to Feyri. If she doesn't already know, it'll be best if she hears it from you. Touch base with her, make sure she doesn't... y'know, do something stupid.

[Xantalos]

A block of stone the size of a truck vehicle crushed him into nothing. Nobody tell Jim, but it was Stacy.
I'll get to it after I heal.

((hey radio, you realize that was a private message to Xan right? Miyamoto should have no idea Auron even considered giving Michael to the evil raisin.))

[Radio Controlled]

((Xan's message was open coms. And the second thing said to Auron still stands. I'll correct the mistake.))


"Ok then, everybody who can still stand, either help with the evac or help with the SW search. Almost done here, but I ain't planning on leaving any loose threads. Mesk, Lars, can I trust you two with co-ordinating the evac?

Oh, and Sky, thanks for the help. You're the best. Fly safe, m'kay?


Hey Pancaek, wanna join me? Gonna go hunt us a cyborg sniper! Anyone else?"

Start gunning for the SW. Ask Steve is there anyplace where Miya can fit while going down there, like a central shaft or something. If there's no way for him to help, direct the people going with him to the possible exits that aren't covered yet.

[Xantalos]

((It wasn't said to be private and Xan broadcasted his messages all over the place anyway.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((Quote from: Auron to canniballistic muppet,
yep im pretty sure that means "Xan" and not "everybody who will have a problem we Auron co-operating" ))

[Empiricist]

Charles stared dumbly at the puppetless string in front of himself. Not a single word of condolence. Not a single exclamation of grief. Just discussion of meaningless matters beyond his understanding. No one cared... none of those abhorrent puppeteers cared... Was this really how much everyone was worth in the eyes, or eye-equivalents of their masters? Mere toys to be throw away unceremoniously when broken? What sort of sick, reprehensible abomination would do that? Playing with the lives of others like that...

Damn it... wait... two bodies? Someone else is now far beyond the brink of death? ...Why? In those last moments... did they know?[/color] Did they know the nature of their existence? There was one way to find out... the illumination of his wristpad, still on the turret controls felt oddly comforting now... ClF₃ was a horrible, sadistic substance... suppose they found the Shadow Walker... suppose he shot him and mortally wounded him with one of those barbaric rounds... could he ask? Could he find out whether others may see them? As the light in their eyes flicker away?

Charles tries to suppress those thoughts... the text was trying to influence again... yet his morbid curiosity and the empty grief remained...

He messages Lyra and Feyri, both of them seemed to get along well with Grate after all... like parental figures...

It is with great sadness I must message you, according to our comrades, Grate has permanently died. I shall refrain from saying any more until more information becomes available.

How?

[Empiricist]

Xan said he was crushed, I merely hope that it was painless. I know you two got along quite well with him, it is only fitting that the news be delivered as quickly as possible, forgive me if this assumption of mine is false.

Crushed?

[Empiricist]

Ask Xan for the details, I don't think I'm in the right state of mind to be giving any information at this moment.

[Lenglon]

How did Grate die?

[Radio Controlled]

((According to idiots_in_space, the 2 victims of the Amper had these things in their possession:

Grate:
5 token.
Repair kit

Michael:
Microwave Manipulator.
Magnetic manipulator
Light bending cloak  => pierced by the spears, repairable?
1 token

Hmm, I'm wondering how we'll do the rewards at mission end. Everything in one big pile and divide from that? Keep things separated into 3 and count people with their original team? And I'm worried about people buying the stuff for themselves they first bought with the team token fund, as that'll mean everybody can now effectively buy everything at half price (since returning stuff only is worth half the tokens). We could say that everything bought with mission fund has to be returned for tokens, would make things easy, except for Jim having bought something with his own and mission funds together, complicating matters. ))

What did you do to Grate.
