Team AJim, noticing that Faith had entered the jewelry as well as the fact no one was paying attention to him, followed her in. It was quite evident she was casing the joint, so he sidled over and tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention. "Hey. What do you think Feyri would like?" he asked as he looked over the display cases.
Jim also enters the jewelry store with intent to loot, takes whatever Faith recommends him to, then heads back to his team.
You walk into the store just as Faith finishes her "shopping spree" and ask her about a ring that a girl like Feyri would like.
"A girl like feyri?" Faith repeats before turning, brushing some glass away on the smashed counter tops and fishing out a ring.
"Here ya go." She says, handing it to you and walking away without another word. It's a platinum ring with a
yellow green square cut emerald. Huh, it does make you think of Feyri somehow.
You return to your group with the ring hidden in your giant hand.
See how much ammunition remains in the pistol.
There are 10 rounds left out of, judging by the empty space, 13-14 rounds.
Bruce followed into the jewlery shop, hearing Jims question he asked Who she was, and then when being told about the girlfriend thing he shall suggest "A wedding ring."
Lollygag!
You skip about the room, singing tiny tim songs while curtsying to the corpses and doing cartwheels.
[Team A Medic - Mesk]
Examine plague corpses.
[Med:2+2]
It's hard to tell, what with the decomp, but this disease seems almost unnaturally clean in the way it targets a single organ and so efficiently destroys it. Their lungs seem to simply have liquified while the rest of their body remained completely intact.
Team B[Team B Leader=Milno=Entertainment District]
"These were probably their own who got struck by the plague." Milno affirms, standing up and stretching before turning his head to the people near him. "I don't think there's much to see here, so let's sweep the rest of the entertainment district and wrap things up."
Regroup, search the rest of the entertainment district to get things done.

Team B, or more accurately milno and his tag-alongs, Move to the southern lane and search through it. There are a few more bodies, a smashed and raided gun store, as well as what could only be described as a community dump: an enormous pile of refuse tucked in one corner of the lane, but nothing alive and nothing threatening. Just the same remnants of former inhabitants like before.
Team C'Ok guys, it seems we could use this elevator if we wanted, but since I'm not sure which button does what, I'm going to stay off of it. Wouldn't want to accidently carry us up only to die by radiation poisoning. I say we go help sweep the entertainment district, or head to the main elevator and wait for the others there if they're almost finished.'
If there is still an area unexplored in the entertainment district, go there and sweep it. If not, go to main elevator and wait for the others.
While going to the entertaiment district, Miyamoto passes by Feyri first.
'Hey, Feyri, I know you really want to find out what happened here, but we've only searched two levels yet. I really feel that we'll need to go deeper to find out what happened here. And besides, these people are long gone already, so let's focus on saving the ones that aren't dead yet, ok?'
You decide to head to leave the storage room, walk all the way to the Entertainment district and tag along with Mino and Co. as they sweep the south lane of the entertainment district.
Stacy, Team C Physimancer, Storage Elevator.
"Hm, I have an idea! Maybe there's a service ladder in the elevator shaft? We could use that."
Check the ceiling of the elevator for any potential openings. If there are any, look up through them and look for anything suspicious, like damage to the shaft, or useful, like a service ladder. If there isn't an opening, step out of the elevator and melt-cut a Standard Entrance Hole in its ceiling after making sure nobody is inside.
There is an opening, or at least it looks like there could be. There is a closed metal iris blocking the way and several small, blinking red lights set into the wall under the iris.

Riots. Starvation - people welding in their own friends/neighbors/family or close associated species 'For the Greater Good'...
Either I'm suspecting this colony has a science lab located deep within this place that did mutants/mutations, or stuff. Because judging by these marks - including the ones on the containers and ship above, it seems we're dealing with people of a mutagenic trait.
Or I'm just rambling again. Whatever.
Did I just press that to BROADCAST?! NO!
That wasn't a broadcast, was it? =/
The rest of my team is finding a way down the storage elevator. I'll be with them if anyone calls.

You press your helmet against the ground and listen. You can hear a vague sort of mechanical hum, but nothing else.

Try to vibrate as fast as I can and run through a wall screaming "I AM FLASH!!1". Continue waiting for the team leader to do something.

You jerk about randomly, failing to phase through things.
Team DTeam D Leader Faith, Looting Entertainment District
Faith let out a happy squee at all the jewelry just lying about. She was momentarily sobered by the reminder that its former owners were all dead, but only momentarily.
The hardest part, of course, was choosing what to take. She wouldn't have objected to just hauling out a giant sack full of everything, but it wasn't like she could sell it- anything she took was basically just going to be a useless if very shiny bauble to wear. She probably wouldn't even be able to wear any of it on missions, and probably wouldn't want to risk it even if she could.
Still, it was hard to say no to a well-made ring carrying a well-cut stone, and she could be forgiven for being a little greedy...
Pick out some fine jewelry. Start with trying to find a gold ring with a large, probably squarish sapphire on it, then one for emerald and ruby, as well as looking for a nice necklace or two; possibly something fairly glittery and large, but something nice-looking but subtler could work too. Then branch out a bit, getting a few pieces that are just too good to leave, and maybe getting unusually nice representatives from other metals or gemstones, especially in ring form.
Once that's done, get back to the elevator with everyone else.
[will:1]
You smash the glass counter top with your new mechanically aided arm and begin sweeping armfuls of jewelry into your bag, loading yourself up with practically the entire stock of the store. You pick a ring out of the wreckage an hand it to jim before heading to the elevator.
Team D, Jobasio/Jack
"Erm, Team Leader? I highly doubt it's a good idea for us to be splitting up all over the place."
Jobasio frowned uncertainly as he noticed Faith wandering off, then followed quickly after her, keeping a wary eye out for movement, even in these areas they'd already swept.
'Is she looking for valuables? Really? I'm amazed she can even think of material gain at a time like this, with what we're seeing.' He still felt mildly sickened from the sight of so many mutilated corpses, though he kept it hidden. 'I'll have to get used to it sooner or later, especially if things get worse further on...'
>Follow our glorious leader and lootlootloot escort her over to the elevator we're supposed to take.
>Keep an eye out for any potentially hostile movement, of course.
((Can someone link me to the latest map? Although we'll be changing levels soon, anyway.))
You follow along with Faith as she loots a big o' bag of jewelry and then heads back to the main elevator. Since when were you the body guard of shop lifters?
Bishop sighed and straightened upright from looking under a desk, placing his hands on his hips.
"Well, I think we're done here. Looks like theres noone left here that's alive. The poor stupid bastards probably killed each other or starved to death rather than work and repair the fields for producing more food, even if the machines do still work.
Alright everyone, let's head over to the elevator and head down. No point in sticking around..."
Start herding everyone to the elevator after confirming with control that the level has been cleared. If it hasn't been cleared, then ask where we need to check and go there myself.
"This level has been swept adequately. Proceed to the elevator for the next."
You shrug and proceed to fly about, wrangling the wandering aspects of your team and leading them back out to the main elevator to join up with their brave
shoplifter leader.
