((Reposting the question here: an anyone tell me what the glow options determine? There's a color (I get that one), comma, a single digit number (?), comma, and a triple digit number (?). I tried to tweak it, but I can't actually see any difference. Or is there a way to artificially create colors? How?))

Make unique scratch marks on the items I receive (in the shape of letters) as I receive them. From now on it should be assumed that I do that every time I receive an object that could be mistaken for something else. Speaking of, I also get a regular knife and a couple rolls of duct tape so I don't have to use my nails every time.

But isn't it possible to make it's requests be voiced? Either by something built in, or by an external system that would recognize the numbers and read them to me? Or does that cost additional tokens?

Either way, that could be null in a moment. Back home, they told him there was no way to fix an internal brain damage. But that was civilian care. Maybe here... That Doctor might be worth checking out. This place might prove to be a blessing after all.

Head to the infirmary and inquire normal people who are not The Doctor about regrowing lips, nose, and ears. (In my background, they were cut off the same time I was blinded.) If that is free and relatively simple, go through the procedure. First things first. Then search for The Doctor.

Edit: Added more specific descriptions. Fine if it isn't reflected in my action.

Victor will not open fire unless Ivan attacks noncombatants (i.e. if someone attacks Ivan and Ivan fights back, Victor will not fire. If Ivan attacks someone who isn't attacking him, then Victor will fire.) Victor will not open fire if someone other than Ivan is within the kill zone. If Ivan does become aggressive and THEN attempts to attack the turret, Victor will detonate the magazine at the last possible moment.

((For the colour you can use standard colour codes like #FF0000. The other numbers show boldness, opacity and size I think, however most browsers don't support those features I think. Google is your friend.))

"Thanks, I'll try that then."
Get the Crystal Projector, head back to Rec room. Aim at Ivan, only shoot if any hostility started already and no one's close to him

"Guys? Headshots won't work. Looks like he has backup brains. Might not be enough to be sentient, but enough to disembowl you."

Crank up the intensity and diffusion to max. Shove the barrel into one of Ivan's orifaces, and pull the trigger. Do not stop pulling trigger until either Ivan is dead, or I am.

((Bypassing armor like a baws. Would you allow that, Piecewise? I know Morul hasn't fiddled with the knobs, but his background could explain the knowledge. If not I'll just skip the cranking up bit, and go straight to lazoring.))

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

Note that it says it will only work in some versions of Internet Explorer that have support for some deprecated features of CSS2, because this feature is no longer supported by the CSS3 standard that most other browsers follow. So it's normal that your browser doesn't show it. It's not a problem. It's just that this feature exists from a time when Internet Explorer was used by everyone. Anyway, enough with the off topic.))

((Also, finally, some action! Let's start hearing bets on how long you'll last. I say... 2 turns.))

Anton frowns, both at the report of the seemingly suicidal man in front of the mutant, and his actions. "Tch. More than one brain? Ah, screw it. Too late to back up now. Steve? If I die, all my projects are to be opened for public access. Shock Ivan as soon as I shoot."

Safety off, generator to maximum power (if it isn't), shoot lightning at Ivan's neck. Don't hold the beam more than a few seconds unless Ivan doesn't dodge, keep firing short pulses at him if he does.

((One turn of him ruining everyone's shit, one turn of abbreviated destruction before either the AM, Doctor, or Steve take him out.  Probably AM, though I'd like to see the Doctor do it.))

((Most likely. Although, everyone in the room is currently pointing weapons at him, or actively firing. We MAY have a chance. Slim chance, but a chance all the same.))

((The only way I see for us to kill him without attacking him is venting the place. We're sadly outta luck for unconventional means of restraining him, like using a Mass Manipulator to lift him off the floor - so that he only presents a ranged attack threat. Using good old firepower - or fancy new lightning, in one case - is pretty much the only thing we can do to beat him. Of course, this may as well be a test of character more than anything. The only "correct" response, survival-wise is getting the hell out of dodge and waiting for the high-level heavy-hitting NPCs to help. But that's no fun. :) ))
