Be alive now!
[end:6]
You wake up screaming, sit up, crack the medi-foam and start bleeding again. You keep screaming.
((Are we going to have enough time to revive The headless one? Will the mission take too long or will the medifoam make her last longer.))
"Well, if he dosen't want to keep it, I can take it."
Feyri's head is gonna go bad in a few hours, let alone the days.
((Does Travis know Simus' name? i don't think I ever really introduced her, except to Jim, Mesk, and Maurice.))
I already did what you're asking Faith to do. I took a core sample, here.
Show Travis the core sample.
And sure, I'll collect some branches. You're carrying them, though.
Cut some branches down away from the group, using my wristblade.
You hack a few branches off the nearest tree and let them fall to the ground. You point at them and say "There ya go."
Tell origin story of PacMan.
[Random what the fuck roll:1]
"PACMAN was a lemon that someone cut a mouth out of. The end."
Help set up camp, while pretending to pay attention to what May says.
You guys are still 2 miles from camp. You just can't seem to stop murdering each other long enough to get there.
(( Oh. I am totally going to be killed by Jim. Totally. ))
Was it imagination... or did the blood pour from the neck stump, too freely for a fried body?
Check the headless body once more. Is it really that crispy?
Treat Thomas's arm.
... Damnation.
I am afraid you are wrong here, Simulacrus. This brain won't surivive it for long. I've bought us some time, but I believe we need to get her head and Mason back on board as soon as possible.
Also, that's not the point, Milno. You may as well be young, or very old, for all I know, but you are already toughened by the missions you've survived, and you are wearing this suit that grants you Herculean strength and endurance.
(( And no, Maurice is just being a gentleman. And a practical man as well: according to the sheets, Simus has endurance of 2. That is a bit low for this kind of task, don't you think so? ))
You take another quick look at the body but...well the fucking spine is exposed and burnt. Even if you could get a pulse back in her, she would be dead in minutes from anything from multiple organ failure to asphyxiation. This way she would survive at least, assuming you get her to the stasis pods on the shuttle.
[med:5+1]
You're a bit distracted with your recent decapitation of a teammate to really pay much attention to Thomas's boo boo. You spray enough medi-foam on his palm to completely encase his hand in a hardening foam sphere.
"We definitely need to send some people back with them," Faith said, motioning to Mason and... well, Maurice holding Feyri's head now. "This mission will take longer than they can be revived for.
So, who's officially going? I'm not really suited to carrying things and would better serve helping to figure this place out. Maybe Maurice and Simus, or maybe May? Ideally they should be able to have the wounded picked up and then just hurry back here without an issue. It also needs to be someone reliable, though..."
She also moved back over to Chin.
"And I'm really sorry about that, here."
Hand Chin a crutch.
You get a crutch from the Advanced kit and hand it to Chin with a sheepish shrug. "Sorry about that..."
"Unfortunately, I don't think we have cutting laser fielded right now. The best we got is Faith's cutting torch.
Also, I don't particularly care if I have the camera or not. Would make documenting things easier. Though I'm not the best with technology, as indicted by the issue I had with my head lamps (No -1 or +1 for reference, just a normal roll). If the guy over there thinks he can use the camera better, he can have it"
Reminded about his lamps, Travis turns their intensity down to 150%
"Hey Conrad? Would it be possible you could help us hunt down a stiltwalker and get it on film before you leave?"
You turn your lamps, which you have yet to reactivate, down to 150%.
"Uh." Conrad still seems a bit dazed by all this, "Well, we could try when you get back, but we'd need the searchlights to really see anything.
Cut off a sizeable sample of the tree trunk I just cut down, then begin digging into the base to see if I can find its roots, bottom, or just confirm that it goes down deeper than I'm willing to go with a cutting torch. Drag Chin, or whoever has the camera now, to record the whole process.
[aux:5+1]
You cut up the ground...and the tree, hacking randomly around till you have nothing but a pit full of gravel and tree pieces. Kinda hard to tell if there were roots in there...
