((My character has a tear of Timmy in his chest?  This is either going to be really cool or really bad.))
((Too bad Lyra doesn't know what a Tear of Timmy is, even though I do.))
((I suggest you radio the team and ask what it is.))

((That hole-cutter is made of cutting lasers. I forget how many. If Steve doesn't want it back, we could salvage a few cutting lasers from it.))

((I thought it was one big cutting laser on an O-frame?))

((that is such an amazingly bad idea.))
((Well, it gets the guy out of the neurons and gives us an easy exit plan - straight up - in case it goes berserk without a pilot.
The only things I haven't exactly accounted for is how we ensure whatshisface doesn't get crushed by multiple cookie-cut rubble chunks.
But other than that it seems like a perfect plan, provided that the circle is positioned exactly right- hence getting Lon-lat co-ordinates.
I also said 'position', not 'position and fire'. So we can figure out what we're going to do, and our cutter is ready to go if Morul gives the order.
And if not- no big deal. It's not like we were going to use it a second time anyway.))

((I don't think heating something that is right above us to a ridiculous degree is very smart. Worst case scenario we become +metal statues+. This is a finely crafted metal statue. It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.

((Thankyou RC, Well my suggestion is to equip one or two of the boarding vessels covered in sand, with instead of people (or as many) a particle beam weapon (P.B.W.) as a P.B.W. could take out any ship in a single shot and having a teeny tiny ship blow a capitol to kingdom-come is absolutely hilarious))

((Already have the Black Death planned, with a plasma cannon powerful enough to punch straight through a ship. It only carries six shots though.))

"Lovely. Okay, we found our man, or what's left of him, now we need to figure out how to get him out without pissing off the giant flesh monster we're standing in. Hrmm. Fuck it, I'll just ask nicely. Seems to have worked so far."

Activate the loudspeaker.

"Okay, thanks for showing us our teammate. Can we have him back now? Please?"

((Firing a laser into the brain of a giant creature we're still inside isn't a good idea, mostly because it seems indifferent about us, or at least trusts us enough to be allowed to see its real brain. We can always resort to violence later.))
