"Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. Do you ever have phantom hunger pains?"

"Hmm, I just got this body, so I can't really say. I saw Miya here eat some people one time, though. Just chomped that one kid who kept ignoring his orders."

[Tavik Toth]

"Say boss, what do you think we will find at the South Pole? The Thing? Artifacts? Both?" Jack asks while popping his head out the top hatch.

((this to me? Cause it seems I won't be going after all, too many people.))

((Yeah it's directed at Miyamoto. He's wondering what Miya thinks.))

"Ugh yeah, bony little fellow. No taste, hell not even good enough to chew on for a while. good riddance I'd say."
He leans over to Lerman
"Say, you wouldn't happen to be nice 'n chewy, wouldn't you?"

"Say boss, what do you think we will find at the South Pole? The Thing? Artifacts? Both?" Jack asks while popping his head out the top hatch.

"Frankly, i don't have a clue, but if I had to guess, something the aliens either tried to bury deep to seal it away, or got left behind somehow. Either case, you'll want to be careful, and take your time with it. Make sure you don't accidentally release whatever's inside."

"Understood sir." Jack says before saluting and getting in the shuttle.

[smurfingtonthethird]

"How does that even work? Do you even have a mouth? What are your teeth made from? Do you have internal synthetic organs? A synthetic digestive system? Would carbon-based food even be usable by synthflesh? Where do you shit out waste products?"

((the more you fight it, the more the questions multiply ))

Alright, saves me some tough choices, since I don't like cutting people.


Alright, other posts then this one. I'll be back

[Unholy_Pariah]

be saddened by loss of mission status, head to the rec room and check if that alien power sphere whatchamacallit is still there.

Get in th VR machines and boot tinker regardless.

"Excellent.

Now, there's a good chance you won't be the 'natural leader' for this mission, seeing as how there are people with more veterancy going. That doesn't mean you won't have to do anything though. Keeping your unit coherent, rooting out quarrels between troopers before they have a chance to fester, and coming up with a plan when you hit a dead end, are all things I expect you to do this mission. It won't be easy, but if you ever want your comrades to trust you in leading them, then you will have to go beyond what you think you're capable of.

Next to that, I'm giving you two specific assignments:
-at the end of this mission, you will come to me, and if there's time we will go over it and see what went right, and what could have gone better. And maybe go over that hostage fiasco from the boarding.
-next, you will take this gun. It's a combo namite/sticky goop launcher. You don't have to use it yourself, you can give it to a teammate if you want, but at the end of the mission I want it back, and I want a detailed review of it. Call it a test of your analytical skills, as well as a field test of this thing.

You think you can handle these tasks?"

Give my upgraded thrower to Hasala, as well as the two canisters of namite and all the goop and dissolvant I get from Steve/the AM. If Steve won't fund my project, give him the namite thrower and 2 cannisters anyway.

"I'll do my best."

"Pancaek, please escort this man out of this hangar before I escort him out of an airlock."

No worries, I'm here to be the bogeyman if you ever need one

I forgot to add Denzel. Sorry. So yeah, added Denzel in the quote above and the first list.

[Pancaek]

"Pancaek, please escort this man out of this hangar before I escort him out of an airlock."

"You surre you don't just want to throw him out of that arilock? Well, whatever you say. I'll come visit again later, eh?"

Pancaek turns to Lerman, putting his right hand Lerman's shoulder.

"So, are you going to follow me out of here voluntarily? Or am I going to have to rip off your arms first?"

[smurfingtonthethird]

"Well, I was supposed to get on the Team B shuttle, and I was going to ask for directions, but I got, erm, sidetracked. I need to go sit on Tinker for a few months until everything makes sense again. Where exactly is it?"

[Pancaek]

"Well, I was supposed to get on the Team B shuttle, and I was going to ask for directions, but I got, erm, sidetracked. Where exactly is it?"

Pancaek smiles the smile of a man who hasn't had facial muscles in a long time, and puts his arm around Lerman's shoulder

"What a wonderful random happenstance, I'm on team B as well. Let's walk together, new blood. Get to know eachother before you inevitably lose some limbs. "

And with a firm grip on Lerman's shoulders, he starts walking towards the team B shuttle.

[Grunhill]

Renen wakes up and looks around, recalling the last mission.

Shit!

Check self. Ask Steve:

How well did our mission go? Did we succeed? Do I get any tokens?

[Caellath]

((Quick post, subject to editing in a while.))

- Milno (Leader)
 - Lars (Nutjob)
 - Skylar (Medic/Techie)
 - Thaddeus (Rookie)
 - Thomas (Sniper) or Bishop (Techie) [Depending on whether Thomas suffers a BSOD. Decided to go with my original option unless Spinal_Taper's too busy or his character goes nuts. In that case, Zako/Bishop will replace him. No harm with last-minute changes because I want to limit the number of cases anyway.]

"Try to make our crap fit into two or three cases. We still have to carry the case with the direct line to Steve and we can't attract too much attention." Milno tells the rest of the team as he heads to the armory to get their gear. Upon spotting the Armory Master's familiar figure, a slight smile crosses his lips. Not malicious nor smug, just pleased. "Hey, it's been a while already. I have a few things to fetch for a mission."

((In order of importance:))

- Mechanist Gauntlet (unless it can be effectively hidden with civilian clothing and gloves);
 - Grappling hook and a reasonable length of thin, resilient rope;
 - CamEyes glasses or anything of similar function (I remember something along those lines existing, but if it isn't possible then drop it);
 - Battle Stims (Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Willpower; four to five of each);
 - Tranquilizer darts (a few) plus appropriate weapon;
 - Compact long-range precision rifle with a detachable barrel and similar assassin-favorite features (unless taken by other teammates - good to stuff into Lars' case);
 - Miniature surveillance cameras/motion sensors (unless taken by other teammates - good to stuff into someone's case);
 - Collapsible baton that can be used in lieu of Milno's usual trap-checking metal poles;
 - Tesla Sabre;
 - Compact handcuffs, cloth for gags and similar non-BDSM material for tying down people;
 - One paralysis gas grenade/canister;
 - Kinetic Amp (armory one, wee.);
 - Automatic hole-cutting laser (ditch if it's big and/or someone in my team has a cutting torch);

Try to divide, mix and match and make our crap fit in as less cases as possible so that we take, at most, three cases plus the big one with the direct line to Steve. Gauntlet stays with Milno, though.

Check if we all can get small (those cigarette case-sized) automanipulators for defense against projectiles to go hidden in our pockets/under our clothes (if possible, though I kind of doubt it). Take my man-sized Avatar Cloak; in case it isn't too heavy, see if I can just fit it under the civilian clothes in such a way it covers most of the torso and the neck, otherwise just wrap it around all the stuff in the suitcase to keep the contents away from prying eyes in case I open it.

Do we have a time limit? Do we know the room the target is in? Do we have a specified extraction point or will we need to contact Steve after the mission's done?

Questions for the ask the AM before shuttle. Upon receiving answers, say good bye and shuttle I guess.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

- Does the threshold of "really dangerous shit" only start when you use three stims at the same time?
- Is using two battle stims - for the same area (stat) or not - relatively safe?
- Is it possible to negate the "low" (penalty) with another dose and, in case of an affirmative, how long can you keep that up before your body starts breaking down?
 - Would giving a victim two or three Willpower shots and then waiting for the boost to go away to interrogate/mindread them during the "low" phase be a good idea?
 - Is mind-reading unconscious/sleeping people better or worse than doing it while they're awake?
