Repairs are gonna need parts, remember? And you lack parts and tokens.
Identify the fault in any case. There may be enough wrecked hardware in the rec room to scavenge something, but identifying what parts are needed first is required. Try not to remove anything that can't be easily put back in the process.

Afterwards mount the generator back and do a final checkup on the rest of the thing, checking that all connections and switches are to spec.

re-summon Blue, shut the door, and back away from it

turn to face the empty-handed Maurice, and stand still looking at him for 5 seconds. walk around behind him. sit down with my back to Maurice, and curl my knees up close to my chest. wrap my arms around my knees and rest my head on my knees while I stare blankly at Blue bobbing in my hand.

"Thought is in your mind, so are we. Think it, and it is where we are."

give Maurice a logical explanation for what he is trying to work ((NOT a speech or int roll, just summarizing the action in bold so pw doesn't miss it)

((talk to me when i get my mind back if you still are having parts trouble))

((btw, nik, you haven't told Lyra enough for her to know this, but you're doing it wrong, i can explain via meta if you want but that's kinda cheating.))

Think? Like in, just think, nothing more, nothing less? All right, I'll try that.
Think of a book of poetry lying in my hand.

"no, it's already in front of you. look down."

trick Maurice into thinking he already succeeded, making him naturally assume the reality of whatever it is he's spawning
((well, lyra didn't actually get any information from that statement so... good luck?))

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.

((Can I vote for severe maiming?

Either way, unless the other people shoot and/or slash Ivan further, you're pretty much done for. He's too strong for you to just break from melee range.))

the bet is for just this next turn coming though so if i can tank his attack or he gets shot enough to simply swap targets then for the purposes of the bet i would live even if i bleed out the turn after.

Im willing to take the maiming bet, is one token acceptable?

Criteria for "severe" maiming would be disembowelment, loss of limb?

"Not healed yet." The doctor's voice cuts in from somewhere beyond the haze of dark green. "Still regenerating. Eyes not adjusted yet. Will need glasses for a time. Still, visual cortex regeneration went nicely."

There is a pause.

"You still remember who you are, right? No memory loss? No brain damage? Just checking."
I believe I'm good. Although on my home-world it is customary to answer this question with "My tail is doing great, although my carapace is itching." But thank you for the operation, good doctor. You're a walking miracle. If I was prone to emotional outbursts...

But that's me. Care to tell me about yourself? How you came here? Why?


Chat with The Doctor (text above). Follow Doctor's instructions. Look around to understand what the place looks like.


((And now I'm chatting and joking with The Doctor. This can't end well.

And thanks to everyone for allaying my concerns. I do find it funny that the most stout protector of the game balance is another player. Not that I'm complaining.

And Yay! One more defender (turret) defeated. And another one on his way. But I do believe we have a confirmation that AM will protect anyone in her custody from Ivan. Not that I ever believed otherwise.))

Why are 100% of my posts in ER? I already have another account. Created this one specifically for playing.

Not online every Friday evening till Saturday night. If I am listed as online, I am still not online, as my computer has an annoying habit of waking up to the tiniest distraction and then going off to sleep again.


List of links to charts and graphs here. Work in progress. Check it out?

((The turret isn't completely neutralized, it's magazine is a potent explosive. If someone *cough*Renen*cough* manages to attach that to Ivan, 22 rounds worth of propellants and bullets will erupt into him at point blank.))

((Remember, it should take a bit for the altered personality to become dominant, and you won't be as strong as Ivan, because you just turned. Ivan has had around five or six missions to "evolve" and become what he is now.))
